Noah Fall/Winter 2016 – As the former Creative Director of Supreme, Brendan Babenzian is never out of ideas. The Noah brand comes into the colder seasons with pieces that are inspired by military garb and feature heavy wool, athletic fleece, and an array of non-traditional headwear. The pieces have a nostalgic feel, but also convey a sense of quality that is missing from mainstream street wear.

10.Deep Fall 2016 – 10Deep may not be easy to find, and that may go on to explain why they still have such a strong presence in menswear. The brand has over ten years of experience under its belt, and each season still arrives with a breath of originality. Last few seasons were heavily influenced by sportswear and Americana, and this latest takes the hot, dry desert as the muse. Titled “Outlands” the collection is heavy on prints and sports earth tones with indigenous blanket designs. Copious amounts of treated textiles gives the collection a feel and edge that is different from previous collections.

adidas x Undefeated Consortium Busenitz – adidas is holding a World Tour for its Consortium line and the next stop is Los Angeles. It wouldn’t be a proper LA visit without touching base with Undefeated, and the two brands come together to create a military influenced rendition of the Busenitz. This collaborative version foregoes the leather uppers for heavy-duty Cordura and a bit of premium suede. A bit of desert camouflage is on the tongue, with the Undefeated five strikes branding as a tongue tab.

Lenovo Yoga Book – The Yoga line of laptops from Lenovo has been one of its strongest sellers. The ability to transition between laptop and tablet made it a hit, and now there is a new entry that borrows heavily from the original concept. The Lenova Yoga Book is also a hybrid device, but instead of using a PC operating system it runs Android across a 10.1 touchscreen. There is also a keyboard for typing, but the idea behind the Yoga Book is to create a device for the occasional laptop user. While the Yoga Pro had the power user in mind, the Yoga Book is for everyone else that wants raw computing power, but a simpler and easier interface.

Sony NW-WM1Z – Sony owned the eighties with their Walkman, but that business has tapered off to CDs, MP3 players, and smartphones. The business has definitely changed, but Sony wants to serve something perfect for the audiophiles.

These premium conditions ensures the music is perfect, so that means you’re going to have to skip the torrent sites for this media player.
