Vans Syndicate x Eric Dressen Spring 2009 Half Cab “S” Pack

27 January 2009, 19.00 | Posted in Skateboarding, Sneakers | No comments »

vans syndicate eric dressen spring 2009 1 Vans Syndicate x Eric Dressen Spring 2009 Half Cab S Pack

Eric Dressen expresses himself through his skateboard loudly and fast, but always in control. When not skating, he’s quiet and would rather not be at the center of attention. Since the late 70’s, Eric has been rolling on his board all the while following the code of conduct set by fellow skaters from Santa Monica and Venice. A kid when the Z-Boys were in their prime, their antics truly inspired and shaped his explosive skating talent. Eric was featured in Skateboarder magazine at age ten, turned pro at the age of twelve and years later became the back-to-back World Street Champion in 1987 and 1988. He can skate any type of terrain with confidence; pools, pipes, streets, ditches, parks, ramps.

For Spring 2009 Vans Syndicate worked with Eric Dressen on a pack. It pulls a direct influence from the classic fedora – a symbol of pride and honor – in a way that was not too obvious. The rich felt overlays, ribbon quarter panel, gold leaf custom lettering, and gold satin linings makes the subtle statement in perfect detail.

The Eric Dressen Half Cab “S” is available in black, brown and gray and will be released at premium retailers beginning of March.

Vans x Pixies Sk8 Hi

vans pixies 01 Vans x Pixies Sk8 Hi

After giving you a look at the Vans x Parra collaboration pack the other day, we show you today the Fall 2009 Pixies Sk8 Hi.

The Pixies and their music have influenced bands across multiple genres and more importantly set a strong base for music decades after their introduction. It also helps that they started in Boston – a city close to our editors’ hearts.

Expect the Vans x Pixies Sk8 Hi to release some time this summer.

Nike SB Booth At Bright Frankfurt

nike sb 06 Nike SB Booth At Bright Frankfurt

The Nike SB booth at BRIGHT in Frankfurt houses their Fall 2009 footwear collection, but we think that the showcase and presentation build out around the line is worthy of a noting. The showcase room for Nike SB has a feel of a men’s salon. The walls are lined with books supporting some of the coming models and colorways in the Fall 2009 offering as well as imagery from the Nike SB German skate team’s visit to Dubai. Our favorite piece (shown above) is the custom one off Nike Pigeon Dunk Cuckoo Pendulum Clock – as German as it gets.

More views from the Nike SB Fall 2009 Showcase Booth here.

supra dixon Supra Introduces The Dixon

After the Supra Society Terry Kennedy Pro Model, that we recently showed you, the brand introduces another new sneaker this Spring season – the Dixon. The Dixon is certainly a more subtle style than most of the Supra models, features a canvas upper and a classic silhouette. The navy upper and gum sole on the above colorway go together perfectly. More colorways should be coming soon!
