Nike have given us a sneak preview of their 'V' series for 2011. V for vintage, maybe? But also as all the trainers in the pack begin with the letter V, Air Vortex, Air Vector and Air Vengeance, they all look pretty good to me, cant wait to see them in the flesh...
The thing I do love about Nike SB is their continually commitment to very loud colorways. Inspired by Minnesotas state bird the 'Loon' the colorway is not only authentic but awesome, the samples caused a huge stir a few years back and no doubt these will have a similar sought after value...
I'm a huge fan of Outlier, their recent ethic for taking classic pieces and reworking them with modern ideas really works. I am really liking the look of their new peacoat, usable yet sartorial, available now...

As the eleventh commission in the tate modern's unilever series, chinese conceptual artist Ai Weiwei (who has also taken over the dover street market window) has filled the museum's turbine hall with millions of life-sized sunflower seed husks made out of porcelain.
