Seattle’s Sub Pop Records has seen its share of ebbs and flows over the years, bouncing from obscure to popular back to obscure in an authentic way that would cripple a lesser brand. 2009 seems to be an up year for Sub Pop because following their collab earlier this year with Manik, Sub Pop is now releasing a quickstrike SB Blazer Elite. Meant to commemorate the Sub Pop Singles Club relaunch as version 3.0, this is a shoe for a particular collector for sure. Look for it to hit stores in July. More images of the shoe after the jump.

Element has teamed up with famed guitarsmith Neal Moser to create the “Metal Gods” deck series. Moser, who has designed guitars for Jimi Hendrix, David Crosby, and the Byrds, lent his hand to both a Bam Margera and Mike V deck which feature hand drawn, foil detailed drawings of his guitars on Element Featherlight construction boards. Each “Metal Gods” deck comes with an entry card to win one of the actual guitars hand signed by Moser, Bam, and Mike V. You can buy one right now at the online Element Store. Another look at each deck after the jump.

We’ve been taking you through the announcements regarding Nike 6.0’s sick collab with 3 Inches of Blood, the Blood Oncore High. Now we can show you the final product. A super limited amount of Blood Oncore Highs come packed with a bottle of “Deadly Sinners Blood” and a silver goblet. Even the “Sinners Blood” label is completely custom from 6.0 and the band right down to the warning label stating “(1) According to the executioner, drinking the blood of a sinner may impair your ability to wield your sword and vanquish the enemy. (2) Consumption may also lead to false feelings of immortality and God-like strength. Choose Wisely. Contains Despair.” Some more looks at this deadly pack after the jump.
