Billionaire Boys Club is releasing a new Motor Cycle Jacket for November, and has successfully combined the military style with the biker style, fused with the classic BBC graphics for this new drop. Unlike traditional biker jackets that are usually rendered in leather, BBC took a more lighthearted route and dressed everything in olive khakis, but construction and silhouette remains quite true to the original Bike jacket, down to the reinforced shoulder and elbow patches and adjustable, buckled waist. The lining is quilted and dressed in silk, which offers both comfort and heat retention, and the front has been adorned with a tonal embroidery of the astronaut logo. The jacket is currently available at BBC/Ice Cream.

There is something intricately fascinating about the American suburbia. Past the peaceful rows of houses with white picket fences, still water runs deep as an uncomfortable omen seems to lurk underneath the homely exterior. It is the place where damage lies hidden behind closed doors, and but all lawns look meticulously groomed to sinister perfection. At least that is what it seems in Spike Jonze’ video rendition of Canadian group, Arcade Fire’s latest track, “The Suburbs”. As the band croons on about the complications of teenage friendship nurtured in the suburbia, where children dream of getting out and spend bored days running amok in the sun, Spike Jonze brings in a dark perspective in translating the music into a short.

Caveat: If you are an Apple evangelist, the following images may result in tiny heart aneurysm and paranoia about the safekeeping of your beloved gadgets. Proceed with caution.

The project really budded when Michael Tompert’s two children fought incessantly over a game on an iPod Touch. In the heat of anger and frustration, he smashed the iPod Touch, and liquid poured out of the broken screen. Tompert then, instead of grabbing a Bounty, grabbed his camera and shot it. His wife, upon seeing the result, suggested he should do something with it. And hence, Tompert and his friend, Paul Fairchild, started purchasing Apple products and sentencing them to creative deaths. Don’t think the destruction is caused simply by hand– the duo employed a handgun to blow holes into various iPhones, and for some of the iPods, he actually placed them on a train track so locomotives can run across them and send them to gadget heaven, where the floppy discs probably reside in happiness now.

Apparently, the far east is where the wild things are, as mita Sneakers had recently collaborated with asics to release a special leopard printed Gel-Lyte III as a part of the Tokyo Kirimomi limited edition project. While we had previously previewed the sneakers, now we have more detailed pictures that finally lets the sneakers live up to its name. For instance, aside from a fierce black leopard printed nylon upper and colored leopard lining and insoles, these new sneakers feature a clear outsole that showcases “far east” on the bottom, and also special mita Sneakers laces that glow in the dark. Things can’t get any crazier than these, and we believe it is quite safe to say these sneakers are a party of their own? Available now via: TGWO

Surf and turf takes on a new meaning with adidas Originals this coming Spring, as the Trefoil label has decided to go on the wild side, drawing inspiration from both under the sea and in the plains with a new luxurious take on the classic Stan Smith 80s. The new Stan Smith 80s Lux pack to drop in March 2011 has been rendered in an embossed printed “Stingray” upper, and now, we have a look at its turf counterpart, a pony-haired “Zebra” version. Very much like the “Stingray”, the upper has been covered in all-over animal print (zebra printed pony hair to be exact), and comes outfitted with a tough looking D-ring eyelet set up. Black accents on the heel and laces keep things grounded with matching black soles. We suppose now the only thing to complete the pack would be to see something from the sky being adopted for the Stan Smith kicks. Feathers, anyone? via: glltn

Every year, National Geographic holds a photography contest for budding and professional photographers, and the results indeed do exemplify how a picture is worth a thousand words.  These are brilliant images that have skipped through the human cognitive need for language, and went straight ahead to evoke emotions that perhaps, even the most loquacious of us can’t put into words. This year, the submissions deadline will be closing really soon on November 30, and National Geographic had shared some images with Boston.com and gave us a sneak peek into what we can expect from the men and women with lenses this year. Check out a sampling of the images which ranges from sports to nature, and if you do want to compete for the $10,000 prize, you still have time to pick up your camera and capture your own moments.

Perhaps one of the most high profile collaboration amongst streetwear labels this year, BAPE had joined hands with Stussy to create a “Survival Of The Fittest” Collection, celebrating Stussy’s 30th year in running in the tough street game, and also attesting to both label’s evolution in the marketplace. Stussy, having began somewhat three decades ago, was one of the first labels to establish the t-shirt as a respectable, separate genre in fashion. In the new honeyee Feature, Paul Mittleman, creative director of Stussy, and NIGO talks about how both parties first met, how the collaboration came out, and what their first impressions were of each other’s brands. The feature is available in both English and Japanese, so to read more about the duo and one of the biggest collaboration projects at the end of the year, click on over to honeyee.

Whether you were part of the disco crowd running a Saturday Night Fever with John Travolta or the androgynous hippie, the 70s is quite a memorable decade in fashion, and is making a comeback this season, especially in forms of clogs and mules and platform shoes. As a part of Keds’ Century Collection, the heritage sneakermaker which had brought the plimsolls look to popularity is now paying tribute to the 70s, after collections like the 90s and the 50s.

Ever wonder what NBA stars do off court? What will they do if they don’t play basketball? What will they do when they retire? Apparently, while Glen “Big Baby” Davis can teach people how to dougie (as can rookie John Wall), some have opted for music, like Ron Artest, and apparently, Carmelo Anthony too. Melo’s Krossover Entertainment will be releasing a new mixtape “Become Legendary” on November 20 to coincide with the release of his new signature shoe, the Melo M7.

“How long can I run before my iPod breaks? Can I catch my shadow? Can I catch that shadow?” Casey Neistat explores the mind games runners play in a short film, “Mind Games”, commissioned to be made as he trained for the NYC marathon this year in helping Nike to celebrate the art of running. In this 2.5 minute short film, written years ago when Neistat first started running, and he carried a small HD camera on his runs this year for three weeks to shoot the film. Check out the video and get inspired to make your own mind games for your run.

Back in the day of Leonardo Da Vinci and Galileo Galilei, art and science can coexist in the same mind, and diversity of the mind seems to be much more admired than a singular expertise. However, according to biology of the brain, emotions and intuition are separated from logic and reason by different hemispheres of the brain; the right, for the artistic, and the left, for the scientific and logical. In an attempt to reconcile and explore the notion of one mind, Imaginary Foundation is putting up a pop-up store/gallery at the FIFTY24SF Gallery called, “The Undivided Mind”. This exhibition explores the relationship and fusion of art and science to create the synthesis of mind, which is “as rational as it is fantastic”. The exhibition will open on November 20 and run through to November 28 for a week.
