NIKE SB ZOOM AIR PAUL RODRIGUEZ III

We caught up with P-Rod at his store in Los Angeles to chop it up about his latest skate shoe from Nike SB, the Zoom Air Paul Rodriguez III. They're in stores now. Check back for a further in depth interview with P. Rod coming soon.

G-SHOCK x BAPE.

Do people still buy BAPE? Apparently.

A Bathing Ape has teamed up with Casio G-Shock once again to bring you another watch collaboration. Once again they go with the chunky classic DW-6900 model. My favorite. These hits stores August 23rd. Make sure you cop a legit one, and don't get swash buckled into buying a fake joint on Ebay. That's lame.

10.Deep x Cassie.

Well, not exactly. This is actually a new shirt collabo with streetwear brand 10.Deep and rapper Donnis. But they used the now infamous leaked nude photos of Cassie. I wonder if Diddy is gonna rock this funky joint. I also wonder if some big-shot-thousand-dollar-suit-sporting-lawyers are gonna be knocking on 10.Deep's doors very soon.

STAKES IS HIGH.

New De La shirt from the good people at UNDRCRWN. Available now at Metropark.

MOS DEF WANTS YOU TO WEAR HIS MUSIC.

That's right, the Brooklyn rapper who just released his latest album, The Ecstatic, is planning on releasing T-shirts with his album embedded in them. The shirts will feature the album cover art work on the front, and the tracklisting on the back. Each short will have a hanging tag with a special URL and code allowing you to download the album, that's pretty clever. The shirts will hit stores july 7th for $39 dollars. I might just have to cop me one. Or if you're charitable, hook me up with a crispy Large.

Nike Sportswear Blazer Lite.

I need this in my life. Blazers are one of my favorite models. The rip-stop nylon is bonkers. The color is perfect for the summer. It just makes sense. They drop in June at Tier 0 NSW Pinnacle accounts only. If you don't know what that means, then I don't know what to tell you except, "good luck."

Own John Legend's Watch For Only $32K.

That's right, people. For just over $30,000 you can owe a (time)piece of one of the planet's most famous singers. John Legend and luxury watch makers Audemars Piguet Millenary Pianoforte have teamed up for this limited edition watch with only 500 in existence. According to Luxist the watch has musical theme, using piano keys on the dial instead of numbers. Additionally, it has an engraved pic of Legend and his autograph on the back. Oh yeah, and it's also worth an estimated $32 G’s.

The watch will actually be auctioned off for less than the $32,000 for Legend’s “Show Me” Organization. Bid here if you got the chips. It’s already up to $24K. Ya'll wanna go half on it with me?

Black Star x Rocksmith.

To commemorate the highly anticipated on-stage return of Black Star, the legendary duo of Mos Def and Talib Kweli, Rocksmith is releasing two brand new t-shirts on May 30th. The two designs will be available during the Black Star show this Saturday at Nokia Theater in NYC. A limited quantity will also be available on Karmaloop.com. I might just have to cop one, or both.

Eminem x Undefeated.

Sneaker boutique and Undefeated has teamed up with some guy named Eminem for a t-shirt. I guess this guy has an album coming out or something? I don't really know...I've been really busy with work lately and am kinda out of the loop.

Anyway, you can buy this t-shirt from Eminem's website. Treat yourself, or it will make a great gift for a loved one. Act now!

adidas x Def Jam.

Adidas has linked up with Def Jam records to commemorate their 25 years in the biz. It's only right, considering that they have been linked together since Run DMC in 1985. Well, now the Three Stripes have dropped a handful of new colorways for Def Jam, as well as some for individual artist like Redman, Method Man, Young Jeezy and Ghostface Killah (which I think are the only ones I'd cop).

Ghostface:


Method Man:


Redman:

Rest of the collection:

9th Wonder x Puma.

It looks like the North Cakalacka super producer 9th Wonder is getting his own signature Puma shoe. He designed the shoe himself, and put his own personal touches on it. The words "Justus League" are displayed on the side panel, while an enlarged 9 rests on the other side. His The sole is transparent and contains the North Carolina area code (919) underneath. 9th's logo appears inside the show, and the laces are tri-colored red, white, and blue. Stay tuned for release date info.

Air Stabs Now Available on NIKEiD.

That's what I'm talking about. For only $112 too. That's also what I'm talking about. The Air Stabs are one of the most comfortable Nikes ever. I just whipped these bad boys up real quick on Nike ID, as part of the Notorious K.E.V. pack. 1 of 1. Limited Edition. Don't be jealous.

I love Nike ID, and you should too. Why buy someone else's shoe, when you can make your own? Feel free to steal my design, just shout me out when you see me in the streets.

Dumbest Idea Ever.

Diamond Studded Shutter Shades. For $470. Nice try, Hong Kong. I can't wait for the bootleg versions to show up in the Fox Hills Mall.

Kanye Performs “Heartless” on American Idol.

...and rocks a Canadian Tuxedo and his $990 Louis Vitton signature sneakers while doing it.

I wonder what Simon thought of this performance.

Nike Air "Yeezy" (Official Pics)

The Kanye West x Nike collabo has been talked about for the past year, and they have finally been confirmed for a Spring release. These are the first official colorways dropping. The first in April 2009 will be the Zen Grey/LT Charcoal color way, followed this will be followed in May by a Black/Black version, and in June with the final Net/Net color way. No word on the price, but expect long lines and longer price tags.

From Nike:

These performance attributes have been meticulously wrapped in premium full grain leather uppers and adorned with original design details that are uniquely Kanye and identifiably Nike. The remastered Nike Air Assault outsole is treated to glow-in-the-dark properties and will illuminate when the light is low. The forefoot support strap is premium grade patent leather and is of no-stitch construction. Clean seams are used throughout except for a premium suede toe wrap feature with visible stitch detail. Emblazoned across the Air Yeezy is an exclusive “Y” repeat pattern, as either a debossed or lasered detail, which takes inspiration from the Jordan brands iconic Elephant print material. This graphic treatment was developed by West and Smith to pay tribute not only to the name of the shoe and it’s co-creator, but also to the various moments in history that spurred West’s initial inspiration for the Nike Air Yeezy.

Get an exclusive sneak peak at the fresh new collection dropping in March from the street wear brand Mighty Healthy.

Kanye Defends His Manhood.

MTV's Sway asks Yeezy about the shots he takes from the media, bloggers, and hip hop community about his choices in wardrobe, and the speculation that he might be a homersexual. It's sad really that this dude has to defend what he wears. Last time I checked, wardrobe doesn't dictate dopeness. If you're gonna to hate on Yeezy, hate on his choice for using auto-tune on 46 straight songs. That's the real wackness here. That and his haircut.

De La Soul x Nike.

Every sneakerhead knows about the De La Soul x Nike Dunk SB. Shit, I even own a (legit) pair of the high tops. Respect my fresh. But did you know they're working on an album together? True story. Let me tell you about it. HHO sits down with De La to talk about their upcoming album with Nike and how the relationship came together.

EXCLUSIVE!! (c) every mixtape Dj, ever.

Raise It Up For Ma' Dukes!

Stones Throw Records has linked up with artist Parra for a t-shirt collab to help raise money for the late J. Dilla's mother, Maureen Yancey a.k.a Ma' Dukes. Mrs. Yancey is currently battling Lupus, the same disease that took Dilla's life in 2006. This is for a great cause, so please help support and cop a fresh tee. I know you all love Dilla. He gave us so much, let's give back something. Go to stonesthrow.com for more info.

RUN D.C.

This is one of the illest shirts ever. Spotted at Kanye's blog.
