9FIVE has another certified banger with the limited edition”Safari” Tips. With frame details inspired by the original 1997 Nike Air Max Safari sneaker, it features full-grain leather over the acetate frame front and temple tips, a “Safari” print with a Burnt Orange inner, and Black Polarized lenses. The sunglasses also come packaged in a miniature “shoe box” as a way to complete the homage. Get them here. More looks after the jump.

Obviously we don’t cover the NBA but couldn’t for a second front on this sick collection from 9five made especially to commemorate Oklahoma City’s Russell Westbrook’s being named to brand Jordan’s roster. That’s pretty huge for a brand that started out in skate although should come as no surprise to anyone that knows the quality and steez of 9five frames. More looks after the jump.

9five has accompanied the drop of their Fall 2012 Collection with the release of “Layers,” a photo series shot by Dominic Cooley. Using double exposure on 35mm film, Cooley’s portraits of Josh Kalis, Karl Watson, Derrick Wilson, Nick Tucker, Jordan Hoffart, and Alana Dawn, make for a rad trippy presentation.
