Posted on by bythelevel

 

Designed with the riders needs in mind, Nike SB present their ‘Fit to Move’ collection for Autumn/Winter 2014, delivering an apparel range built for skateboarding.

Woking closely with pro skaters, Nike SB deliver a mixture of technical garments, as well as basics from v-necks to crews, that feature the latest innovation such as Dri-FIT technology for breathability. As the title suggests, each piece is designed to allow for total mobility as well providing durability to deal with skateboardings demands. Key pieces include the Skylight Short Sleeve Crew that features a dropped hem for extra coverage, and the Everett Crew with articulated under arm construction.

This innovative collection deserves nothing less than innovative visuals to showcase its offerings and this season sees Nike SB take the ‘lookbook’ one step further. Aligning with the themes of movement, 22 cameras were set up to capture team riders Olsonn, Rodriguez, Beasley, Oliveria and Bramsmark in slow-motion on a 360 degree view, each performing a tre-flip.

Check out the video lookbook above, as well as images from the collection below. The Nike SB ‘fit to move’ collection is available now at www.nike.com and selected Nike SB retailers.

The Hundreds Fall 2014 Collection Preview

Posted on by bythelevel

 

Californian streetwear giants The Hundreds give us a glimpse of whats to be expected in their 90’s inspired release for Fall 2014.

Having channeled the 90’s in previous collections, their upcoming release continues to draw themes from the decade, in particular peoples love for music and how this was synonymous with the style of the time.

“…There was something charmingly individualistic and expressive about that, and reflective of adolescent tribalism and community formation. And although it was an exclusive practice – rather than all-encompassing and accepting – I believe the music meant a lot more to youth during this time, because it wasn’t just something you listened to, but something you lived.” – Bobby Hundreds

The diverse collection covers everything from bomber jackets to flannel shirts to cargo pants and much more, with a style that is reminiscent of the west and east coast hip-hop subcultures of the yester-millenium. The preview shots also give us a sneak-peek into the exciting sports collaboration from The Hundreds X Spalding, of which more details will soon be available.

Keep an eye out for more information on the collection which will be dropping at UK stockists from the beginning of August. For more visit: thehundreds.com
