10.Deep Fall 2014 ‘Offline’ Delivery Two Lookbook

New York streetwear imprint 10.Deep follow up their tech inspired World Wide Wave’ release with the second drop from their Fall 2014 collection entitled ‘Offline’

10.Deep are one of very few brands who strive to be distinguished from others, continuing to push boundaries of streetwear design and as a result continue to stay current and relevant. The second drop from their Fall 2014 collection pulls themes and inspiration from a variety of styles, including sportswear, tech focused outerwear and classic menswear, combining them into a bold yet wearable collection.

Alongside essential items in the t-shirts, hoodies and sweaters, sit more complex cut and sew pieces including varsity jackets, plaid button-up shirts and joggers amongst others. Utilising black, white, red and army colour treatments alongside marble pattern prints and a mixture of stand-out logos and more subtle ‘3M’ reflective graphics, the diverse collection offers casual and smarter options, with everything in-between.

The 10.Deep Fall 2014 collection second delivery will be arriving at UK stockists towards the end of the month. Be sure to check back for purchase links!

Nike present The Holiday Sneakerboot Collection 2014

Nike take cues from humans ability to adapt to change in their latest release for Autumn/Winter 2014, as they introduce new adaptations of classic styles in the ‘Sneakerboot’ Collection.

With the weather deteriorating and the UK population reaching for their winter wardrobe, the time is right to be considering footwear options and Nike have seemingly  come up with a solution. Traditionally I prefer a slightly slimmer shape when it comes to footwear, so I’m not 100% sure if these are for me, but I do admire Nikes commitment towards innovation and forward thinking performance design.

Reworking iconic running and basketball silhouettes into ‘weatherised powerhouses’, the Sneakerboots design provides a trio of benefits – warmth, visibility and dryness. The shoes original outsoles remain to ensure the same levels of comfort are achieved, whilst internal linings give your feet that extra layer to fight the cold. Additional features include water resistant properties with each pair constructed from a mixture of premium materials.

The pick of the pack has to be the Air Max 90 Sneakerboot, which maintains its iconic shape with added features in the highly visible, highly durable upper, the classic Air bubble for extra cushioning and waffle patterned rubber outsole for extra traction. The release also includes Sneakerboot renditions of the Lunar Force 1, Air Max 1, Roshe Run Hi, Lunar Fresh, LunarElite Sky Hi, Air Trainer SC and the Dunk Sky Hi, arriving in Autumnal colour treatments. We will let you make up your mind on these, but one things for sure… if you’re looking for a warm, dry and comfortable shoe for the winter months, the Sneakerboots are for you.

The Holiday ’14 Nike Sneakerboots will be available at select Nike Sportswear retailers and online at nike.com from October 15th.
