K-Way for FairPlay Brand – FairPlay knows what’s up with Los Angeles weather. Instead of focusing on thick jackets for fall and winter, their brand has teamed up with K-Way of Paris. With light showers and a couple of cloudy days, Southern California doesn’t get a lot of winter weather, but K-Way’s packable jackets are all you need to get you through. FairPlay and K-Way collaborate on an athletic Windbreaker, a multi-purpose Anorak, and a utilitarian Poncho. This exclusive Urban Explorer collection is made for city life and boasts laminated mélange knit fabrication, along with heat sealed seams and finished with 3M taping. All three pieces for this inventive collaboration will hit stores today, September 30.

The anticipated drop of the OVO Jordan Retro 12 this Saturday will be flanked with matching merchandise in silky white and deep black. The athletic pieces include graphic T-shirts, hoodies, and sweatpants that feature both the OVO Owl and Jumpman, and a load of gold detailing.

A Bathing Ape Shark Mask – The shark motif from A Bathing Ape (BAPE) is a fan favorite that started with hoodies and eventually moved on to other pieces. For fall and winter, the signature print will be used across a litany of accessories, but none more head-turning-worthy than these protective masks. Used commonly across Asia to protect against the cold season, the neoprene mask will have the shark teeth and feature a BAPE camouflage pattern.

KITH 96 Collection Featuring The Lox – Some people are going to hate and argue that Ronnie Fieg is re-appropriating nineties hip-hop by paying off The Lox, but who cares. The KITH 96 Collection is fire. Seeing Jadakiss rockin’ a flip of the Olympic logo from games in Atlanta is dope. I can do without the tacky windsuits, but everything else from this collection is a home run. From the patriotic anoraks to the metallic gold across the T-shirts and crewnecks the collection gives off a warm feeling of nostalgia.

Outlier High Tenacity Neoshell Trench – Outlier is always experimenting with the latest textiles and when they decided to create a trench they looked straight to Polartec. The High Tenacity Trench uses Polartec’s latest wind- and water-proof shell that is made from layers of nylon tricot knit. The result is a tough and dense nylon canvas outer that can be structured and breathable. The trench is fully seam sealed, and comes with zippered rear vents, and a removable hood. It doesn’t rain much in Los Angeles, but this trench makes me wish it did.
