NEW PRODUCTS



















On Saturday, December 20th at 12pm PST, Diamond Supply Co.’s world famous Mystery Box will be available online. For just $100, you’ll get two Hooded Sweatshirts, one Crewneck, and a Scout Belt - just what ones is the big mystery! Sizes available are S - XXXL, so there’s no shortage of gear. Peep the full flier below. Oh yeah, the last mystery box sold out in a day.

After a recent team-up with adidas, FTC now linked up with ACE for a special pair of orange/white trucks. The trucks feature “33″ engraved on the right side and “FTC” on the left (above). Style points on skateboards are more important than kickflips anyways, right?

Pants down, the Diamond Supply Co. Scout Belts are the top scout belt drop this year. One belt features a high-end/Christmas-y color-scheme (above) while the other is red/black with a painted-in logo on the buckle -stocking stuffer or full-fledged gift, these are a win-win. The Diamond Supply Co. Scout Belts are now available at In4mation. Call up for a phone order if need be.

These joyous Volleyball 5-Panel Hats by HUF will add some Christmas cheer to the receiver, even if it’s you. Choose from red/yellow plaid (above) or navy/green plaid (after jump). Available now through HUF’s online store. $38

Limited to 1,000 units and said to be the last Frogman model ever produced by Casio, the LRG x G-Shock Frogman is the latest watch craze. We told you earlier that it’s available at Karmaloop, but now MAJOR got a shipment in and provides a look at the box, which displays the lovely animated lady you see above holding a 10th anniversary cake - sweet. Check out more images below and stop by MAJOR to be king of the G-Shock.

While you’re waiting for Terry Kennedy’s pro model to drop (unless you cop this pair on eBay), get your flash on with anti-skate park skater/punk rocker/ex-druggie Jim Greco’s pro model, the Suprano High, in this purpled up colorway. Expect it to hit Supra/KR3W flagship store Factory 413 and other Supra retailers early January.

Put the SB’s on the shelf and grab a pair of Converse Skateboarding shoes, or Cons. Pay tribute to the Pittsburgh Steelers with the CTS model in black/yellow color-up that just arrived at In4mation, one of the first accounts to get them in. Call up for a phone order if you can’t get over to the Pineapple State.

Skateboarder Mag recently did an interview with Lakai head designers/team riders Eric Koston and Lucas Puig and provided images of two upcoming limited edition Lakai shoes. First off, we have the Lakai Koston SP LTD shoe ($70) in a Crailtap colorway - featuring neon pink and green highlights along with Crailtap’s logo on the tongue and the classic cloud pattern on the back heel. Anyone who knows about Crailtap will be super psyched on this shoe. Also check the Lakai Lucas Puig SP LTD ($55) model below. Expect these to hit select accounts soon.

Now we not only have very detailed look at the super hyped Supra TK model in a rose gold foil colorway, you can purchase a size 9 sample on eBay for $299 right now. The shoe is hi-cut and features two straps, “TK” embossed on the back heel, and “TK” printed on the footbed, just to name of few details. Check detailed images below and get the jump on the Spring ‘09 release.

Emerica Braydon Szafranksi pro model in four colorways, but there’s also a hi-cut version of the shoe which just may be the nicest of the bunch. Click the link below for a list of specs and expect a release shortly.

For the Winter season, IPATH will be releasing updated version of their popular Kenny Reed pro-model and Cats Sneaker - both with winter-specific linings. These will be hitting IPATH dealers within the weeks to come, hit the link below to catch a glimpse of the Kenny Reed Pro Model.

We finally have official images of party animal skater Braydon Szafranski’s pro model for Emerica. Fully designed by Braydon, the shoe features key skate specs like a G2 heel and STI foam footbed along with a well-crafted silhouette. The red/black/gray (above), black/silver, and green/black colorways will come in suede while the white/silver will come in white leather. The shoe is part of Emerica’s Holiday ‘08 lineup so it should be hitting retailers very soon.

The #1 stocking stuffer. HUF restocked their online store with their Script Logo ankle socks. Keep your socks cooler than your kicks. $8

G-Shock connoisseurs look out! Following the success of LRG X G-Shock “Time is Money”, Casio and LRG have teamed up once again to celebrate LRG’s 10 year anniversary with this exclusive G-Shock Frogman. The Frogman is the flagship model for G-SHOCK and features a patented shock resistant design along with unique features including 200M water resistance, a dive timer and tough solar technology. “10 Years of Playing” will be Casio’s first special brand collaboration using Frogman model and will likely be the last. Only 1,000 units of this watch will be produced making this collaboration extremely limited. Now available for pre-order at Karmaloop and guaranteed to ship before Christmas. $600

A couple weeks ago, Vans dropped the Chukka LX Fleece in four colorways. Now they hit us with this Fleece LX Slip-on, which features a suede outer and cozy fleece liner. For disgruntled early morning wake up calls or sneaker indecision, a good pair of slip-ons is a necessity. Choose from dachshund (above left), black (above right), tan and coffee. $90-$100

The Supreme x The North Face “Denali” Jacket is now available through Supreme’s online shop. And yup, sizes/colorways are being snatched up quick. $198

We first saw the black/tan colorway of Terry Kennedy’s upcoming Supra pro model, then purple, then gold. Now we get a good look at a black/red colorway (that will still go through “some changes”) and a release date of May 1st 2009. These images are from the video shoot for Fly Society’s song “Superstarz” - more info on that HERE. See a detailed shot of the shoe below. And yes, you still have plenty of time to save money for a pair.

Here, boy! HUF just added their new Leather Dog New Era to their online store in sizes 7″ - 8″. This black-on-black hat features a shiny leather outer, HUF “H” logo, and a bunch of cuddly doggy faces on the under-brim. Buy yourself a puppy for Christmas. $50

Last month, the motorcycle-friendly Vans Syndicate Max Schaaf Pack dropped at Robust Flavor, now HUF got their hands on the pack and gives us a closer look at the shoes, shoe boxes, and matching handle bar grips - yup, match your bike (no fixie) with your kicks. And hey, if you didn’t get the Vans x Supreme Mountain Edition in red, this is the next best (or better) thing. See the Era in both red and black below and stop by/call up HUF Sutter to get a pair.
