Mishka NYC

Mishka is one of the premiere streetwear brands coming out of New York. The brand was started back in 2003 by Greg and Mikhail. There background is graphic artist. The focus of the brand is more along the lines of punk rock instead of the typical guns and bling that most streetwear brands focus in on. They also have a pretty extensive fashion line that seems to draw inspiration from styles from the 80's. Please click on the links below and read up to learn more.

OTW

Van / OTW Intro

Vans is a magnet for creative youth culture, with more than 40 years of heritage in action sports and Southern California lifestyle. Our way of life is defined by the cultural melting pot of action sports, art, music, design, and authentic street fashion. These diverse influences define the next generation of style-conscious consumers.

OTW product comes from a skate perspective, but is free from the constraints of hardcore performance. The creative freedom allows for designs that are not only practical, but highly stylized street fashion statements.

We are proud to introduce the OTW collection and offer sophisticated product that can embody this youthful culture in a practical, accessible way.

Syndicate / Andy Kessler

Vans Syndicate presents for Spring 2010 a collaboration with Andy Kessler. The pack consists of the Old Skool “S” and the Sk8 Hi “S”, both featuring premium black leather uppers, perforated leather accents, white logo stripes and soles, as well as acqua laces in contrast to the otherwise very clean shoe. An Andy Kessler logo tag is placed on the inner sole. Most interesting, Vans Syndicate used Outlast technology materials on the pack, making sure to keep your foot temperature in balance, as well as providing ventilation.

A nice tribute to the NYC skate, who passed away August 2009

TNT 2 Mid Cup “S”
DEVGRU/Ballistic Cordura
- TecTuff Bulletproof Leather overlays. Wear test approved.
- CORDURA® underlays: "How a uniform performs is crucial to a soldier’s success on the battlefield. And it all begins from the ground up – with boots that can handle everything and anything. Desert heat. Mountain snow. Swamps. Marches. Combat. The unpredictable. The unimaginable. Military boots made with CORDURA® fabrics have been there and done it all - with exemplary results. Battle-tested and proven, they’re rugged, comfortable and absolutely necessary."





DEVGRU/Crye Multicam
MultiCam® is a single camouflage pattern designed to help the wearer hide in varied environments, seasons, elevations, and light conditions. It was designed to address the real-world need for concealment in different environments, with one basic kit of gear. While there are many great location-specific patterns, MultiCam® is designed to work well across a very broad range of environmental conditions when observed in both the
visual and near Infra Red (night vision) spectrums. The design takes advantage of the way the human eye/brain perceives shape, volume and color. Since only a very small portion of the human eye perceives color, the brain does a lot of “filling-in” for the eye.
MultiCam’s® unique design takes advantage of this principle and helps the observer to “see” the pattern as part of the background. This helps the wearer's profile begin to loose its edge and fade into whatever color or shape surrounds him. It works on the principle that an observer can see something but still not recognize it as anything to be interested in.

- Crye MultiCam® 1000 Denier Nylon Cordura: The heaviest fabric Crye offers. It's great for packs and pouches and other applications where heavy wear is the norm. This material is urethane coated on the back for water repellency.
- Duracap™: Under the toe cap and ollie area, Duracap™ backer ensures that once you skate through the upper fabric the life of the shoe is not over. A thin rubber sheet, propietary technology to VANS, that has been proven as the ultimate ollie protection.
