Pandemic aside, things are starting to slowly look slightly normal again. And with normalcy comes opportunity to sport new things that we may have had on ice, for a minute. Which brings us to today’s post, which centers around a very cool concept that we’d love to see on a few wrists sometime in the near future, as we start in getting ready to let the sun shine on us again. </span></p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 17px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Piaget is celebrating the moment its one-time record-breaking Altiplano Ultimate Concept started ticking, with a unique piece that anchors the occasion in time and space.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 17px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The Altiplano Ultimate Concept (AUC) movement beat for the first time on February 7 2017 at 07:47 and, at 2mm from case-back to crystal, it was the thinnest watch ever made, going on to win the Aiguille d’Or prize from the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 17px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The 41mm AUC 2022 features a 4Hz movement built into its slate blue PVD-treated cobalt alloy case. There’s just enough space on the mainplate for an engraved constellation of the sky – infilled with Super-LumiNova – at the time and date that the AUC was first set in motion, while the date and co-ordinates of Piaget’s La Côte-aux-Fées watchmaking manufacture is also engraved on the dial and ratchet wheel.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 17px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The watch is supplied with both a dark blue alligator strap and a blue baltimora fabric strap with cobalt alloy pin buckle. The one-off watch is listed <a href="https://www.piaget.com/lp/altiplano-ultimate-concept">by Piaget</a> as Price On Request.</span></p>Air Meggy http://www.blogger.com/profile/16527184018681103400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564876278164043446.post-54027923989452827242021-10-30T02:51:00.007-04:002021-10-30T02:54:45.796-04:00Design: The VanMoof V Hyperbike <p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">It’s getting a little colder outside, but that’s no reason to stop bigging up things we love to enjoy when it’s nicer out. Growing up in NYC back in the day, we loved getting around the city at will and doing it using many methods. One of our most-used ways to travel, was by bike. We pretty much all had BMX bikes and would rip through streets like we owned them. There was nothing like getting from neighborhood to neighborhood in no time, pedaling hard with your people and whipping through traffic with your headphones on, blasting whatever classic album had just dropped at the time. Our bikes were like our little chariots. We’d lay them on the ground in the parks while we played ball, and ran full and half courts for hours. One eye on the bikes, the other on the actual games we played. This was true culture for us, and that culture still stands for us today, though the bikes are a little different than they were back in the day. </span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I’m still all about bikes and have a Redline Asset 24 today. I’m not doing crazy tricks and all that anymore, so it was best to go with a cruiser for how I currently ride. But I still love everything that Sunday, Collective, Cult, Stranger Co., and WeThePeople are doing. There are so many great companies making awesome bikes today, and it’s tough for me not to buy every one I love. Lack of bike storage space is really what keeps the fleet modest, these days. But there’s another company that I’m a fan of, that’s done some great things of late, by way of design, and their name is VanMoof. </span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">They were founded in in 2009 by bothers Taco and Ties Carlier from the Netherlands. With a vision of the perfect city bike, the brothers set about crafting e-bikes that could redefine urban mobility with new, revolutionary design values. In just over a decade, VanMoof has come to define the e-bike category with its designs that propose style and substance in perfect balance. Thanks to its combination of aesthetics and high-end engineering, VanMoof is the fastest-growing e-bike brand in the world. With the announcement of the company’s latest groundbreaker, the VanMoof V, it’s clear that the Carliers have a view that’s bigger than making electric bikes. In fact, ask either of the Carliers and they’ll tell you that we’re already en route to a bike-first future.</span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">With a worldwide community of almost 200,000 riders on board, VanMoof’s integrated frames have essentially upended the bike industry. Not only is it revolutionary that VanMoof takes full control of everything from design to production, sales, and after-service, but the quality of the company’s e-bikes has redirected the route of urban mobility forever and it’s not stopping any time soon. In fact, if the VanMoof V is anything to go by, the process is about to get a whole lot faster. Literally.</span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The VanMoof V is the brand’s first high-speed e-bike, offering a genuine car replacement for everyday mobility within a city. Controlled by integrated speed settings to match country regulations, the VanMoof V can hit speeds of up to 50kmh (31mph). Of course, the engine helps, but the VanMoof V profits from a range of modern features. Front and rear suspension combine with thicker tires for comfort even at high speed and a new, very futuristic frame design is sure to turn heads. In fact, the revolutionary design aesthetics effectively reimagine an untapped category — now that's thinking ahead of the curve.</span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The result? An unrivaled smooth, longer-distance ride. The bike’s dual motors provide powerful acceleration which is one of the central reasons for the VanMoof V being a genuine car replacement. Actually, many of the design’s features would sound at home in a car manual. Take the intelligent motor control to enhance traction for safety and performance, for example, or the Turbo Boost (that’s right, Turbo Boost), automatic gear shifting, and even theft defense. Of course, founder Ties Carlier is confident about his new creation, but that’s an understatement. “I believe this new type of high-speed e-bike can fully replace scooters and cars in the city by 2025,” he says.</span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Better still, with the introduction of more effective urban transportation comes the possibility of opening channels for the conversations that need to happen. “We’re calling for policies designed around people, rethinking how public spaces can be used if not occupied by cars. I am getting very excited thinking about what a city could look like in the near future,” notes Ties. It’s a statement that distills the real power behind the VanMoof V; behind the sleek design and futuristic features is a vehicle for real, meaningful change. To truly reverse our car-first mentality, we need the right machines to change the policies that can open up our cities to a more sustainable future.</span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The VanMoof V is currently in its engineering stage and is available for invite-only reservations with first deliveries expected by the end of 2022.

font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Now that some of us have begun to stretch our legs a bit and get back outside, we thought we’d start the comeback on here by highlighting one of our favorite museums and their ode to one of America’s greatest artists. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 12px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in our beloved New York is currently showcasing a retrospective, entitled “Alexander Calder: Modern from the Start.” For those not up on Alexander Calder, he’s known for taking existing mediums and turning them on their heads, by way of completely reinventing them into beautiful sculptures and bringing a kinetic energy and dynamism to his work that has continued to boggle the minds of his many followers.</span></p>
<p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 12px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Easily one of the most revered artists, it’s beyond awesome to see the MoMA pay tribute to such an incredible talent. In earlier years, Calder was one of a select group of artists who was creating art that was commissioned by the MoMA itself, during its formative years. One of such notable works, includes <i>Lobster Trap and Fish Tail</i>, which was created in 1939, but also continues to adorn the exact same stairwell today, that it was devised in. The writer Jean-Paul Sartre, known for his sense of existentialism, noted that Calder’s work was “always beginning over again, always new.” Most would agree that the amorphous shapes of his sculptures invite deep reflection, but just as you think you’ve grasped the idea of said piece, they continually change to varying degrees of light and shadow. </span></p>
<p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 12px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">And though he’s known largely for his sculptures, Calder was a true multi-disciplinary artist, who worked across many mediums, such as jewelry, set design and even children’s books. Thanks in part to the Calder Foundation granting loans of his work, you can also view rare works such as <i>Man-Eater with Pennants</i>, which was created in 1945. </span></p>
<p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 12px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">If you happen to be in New York, and would like to see these grand pieces in person, the MoMA currently has them all on display until January 15th. “Alexander Calder: Modern from the Start” is worth the trip, and we highly recommend a visit. </span></p>

This is where we’ll be giving you the good old fashioned barbershop vibe when it comes to discussing sports, athletes and their business. It won’t always be pretty and some things may be said that you won’t agree with, but it will always be genuine and comical, to say the least.

If you’ve been paying attention over the past week or so, you know that Harden has requested to be traded from Houston, citing Brooklyn as his desired primary destination. Long story short, Houston isn’t in any position to feel as if they should trade Harden, as he still has a couple of years left on his contract and lacks some serious leverage, at the moment. Secondly, Houston would basically only be able to get future picks and a bevy of bums and role players from BK, as we all know that the Nets are not going to give any of their decent pieces up for Harden. And why should they? They’re primed to be in the Top 3 squads in the East this upcoming season, right along with both Milwaukee and Philly. </span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">And speaking of Philly, as of yesterday, word is, that Harden has now added Philly to his list of teams he would be willing to be traded to. Now the sticky and awkward thing about this, is that the Sixers’ current President of Basketball Operations, is Harden’s old GM from Houston, Daryl Morey. Morey resigned from the Rockets’ role in October and said he needed to take some time away from the game, only to take the job in Philly like a week and change later. He was instrumental in trading for Harden and bringing him to Houston, and during his tenure as GM in Houston, he posted the second most wins in the league from 2007-2020, only being beat out by the Spurs. Since he brought Harden to Houston, he had the third most wins, only trailing San Antonio and, of course, Golden State. That’s not too shabby, at all. </span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">So Morey is in a little bit of a pickle now, as he is currently looking at a promising season with both (hopefully) a healthy Joel Embiid and a newly-inspired Ben Simmons. Not to mention the addition of a legend at the coaching helm, Doc Rivers. The only way Philly would be able to secure Harden, would be to give up Simmons, who’s arguably the future of the league, should he ever develop a jump-shot. And at only 24, would it even be smart to give him up for a dude who seems to run every superstar teammate out of town that doesn’t mesh well with his game? I honestly don’t know if trading Simmons would be worth it in the long run. Houston desperately wants Harden to stay, as they’ve recently added Boogie Cousins and John Wall to the mix, and have shipped out an erratic Russell Westbrook, who was pretty much a bust for them, in the one season they had him. </span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">In an interview yesterday, KD was asked about the possibility of his former teammate Harden joining he and Kyrie Irving in Brooklyn, and his response was, “I don’t think about James Harden, at all. I mean, he doesn’t play on our team.” I don’t want to assume anything, but that doesn’t exactly sound like anyone in BK is rolling out a red carpet or campaigning for Harden to come out there to build the league’s newest “Big 3” iteration. So where does that leave us? If I had to guess, I would say that Harden starts the season back in Houston, but I would surely keep an eye out for some sort of deal with Philly. Wall and Harden running together sounds like a recipe for disaster, as they’re both into having the ball in their hands. I think Harden in Philly would make way more sense than him going out to BK and reeling his game in to share the ball with Kyrie and KD. Philly loves Ben Simmons, and I love him out there too, but I think they would move him, however reluctantly, if that meant that they could land James Harden. </span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Things are going to be very interesting this upcoming season, and this Harden ordeal is definitely one to keep watching. I could be wrong, but I think some sort of deal goes down with Philly and Houston, at some point.

You can’t walk down the street anymore without seeing almost every person who passes by, with their faces buried into their phones. They were supposed to help us stay even more connected, but one could easily argue, that they’ve probably had the opposite effect. Either way, they’re here to stay and as life goes on, so do the advancements of tech and updates that we all can look forward to on these devices we so affectionately covet. </span></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 19px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">In addition to announcing macOS Big Sur yesterday, Apple also introduced the all-new iOS 14 which overhauls the Home Screen and adds more customizable widgets in addition to upgraded Messages and Maps like its macOS counterpart.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 19px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">The biggest update to the new iOS 14 is without a doubt the Home Screen redesign. New widgets allow you to customize and adjust the size and information you want displayed. You can also create a Smart Stack of widgets, your phone will use AI to make sure the right widget comes up based on your time, location and activity. Picture-in-Picture is finally offered so that you can continue to watch a video or make a FaceTime call even while using another app.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 19px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">In addition to the Home Screen tools, App Clips is a new way for users to access the App Store. It is designed so that you can find products or businesses easily like renting a bicycle, finding a coffee shop or filling a parking meter.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 19px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Messages also receives the same upgrades that its macOS counterpart does. Users can now pin their favorite conversations to the top of their list and directly reply to someone in a group chat. Memoji is updated with more inclusive and diverse offerings as well. </span></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 19px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"><b>Craig Federighi, Apple's senior vice president of Software Engineering had this to say about the new iOS 14:</b></span></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #1d1e14; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 19px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #515151; font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"><i>"iOS 14 transforms the most iconic elements of the iPhone experience, starting with the biggest update we’ve ever made to the Home Screen.

<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">New York City has always been the taxi-cab capital of the world, if you ask me. It’s where I’m from, so I can share a ton of taxi stories, based on experiences in them since the 80’s. Things have changed a lot since back in the day, when we would actually stand on the corner and try to physically hail cabs. Some drivers would even pull off super dangerous driving moves to jump two or three lanes over just to pick us up and score a quick fare. Those are the yellow cabs. If you’re a true “New Yawkuh”, you know all about the gypsy cabs too. These were unmarked vehicles that were also taxi’s, but that had no meter in them to show you what the price would be for the ride. So you would literally negotiate with the driver on the price, and hope that he didn’t try to clean you out for all of the cash in your pocket. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">In Brooklyn, there used to be something that was widely and famously known as the “dollar van”. This was usually a pretty beat-up looking generic van, that would have a nice amount of people in it (other passengers), who were all heading in the same direction, and had also paid a dollar to ride. You’d stand on the corner or on the curb, and this dusty van would pull up and some random dude would open the door and ask where you were going. If you were going where they were, you gave him a dollar and you were off in this van with a bunch of people that could’ve totally kidnapped you and asked your family for ransom money in exchange for your life.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Things have changed a lot since this was the norm. And now most of us are either relying on Uber or Lyft more, when we’re not all driving. Being able to summon a car from your phone and watch it come to you on a map, is not only super convenient, but a lot safer than catching a cab or dollar van on a street corner. We’ve all gotten so used to riding in share rides or Uber’s and have pretty much strayed away from hailing cabs like we all did way back. It’s become our new way of doing things, and a huge part of how we commute, or travel, in general. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">By way of halting everything we held as normal, our current pandemic has definitely affected car production globally as well, but this hasn’t derailed the ambitions of one Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, who has reaffirmed that he still plans to launch a self-driving robotaxi fleet, sometime next year. Most critics have written this off as just another pipe dream, especially given the limited state of self-driving car technology, but we think this would be a pretty interesting concept, if brought to life. And the tech titan is claiming that this is very close to being a reality. Musk has noted that the program could even be ready to launch by the end of <i>this</i> year, should he be able to secure government approval. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">When asked BY CNET, for specifics in regard to development, Tesla responded, “Functionality still looking good for this year,” and that “Regulatory approval is the big unknown.” This would suggest that their autonomous vehicle technology has most likely taken some pretty major steps forward over the last year or so. The company’s current Autopilot suite offers an impressive array of driver assistance options, but it is still lacking actual full self-driving capabilities. This is, at least by SAE International standards. So as it stands, no automaker is currently close to being able to offer what it graded as a “Level 5” autonomy, which states that no driver would be required. Which would be a must for any self-driving taxi. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">But Musk wasn’t done with his robotaxi reveals. It would seem that the company has been thinking about robotaxis for quite some time. That much clear from Model 3’s hardware. Since its inception, the electric vehicle has featured an inactive driver-facing interior-view camera embedded in its rear-view mirror, and now we know why. Stay tuned. We’re all waiting to see how this story develops. </span></span></div>

<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Tajai from Souls of Mischief (you should know who they are), famously said on the group’s classic track “’93 Til Infinity”, “Sometimes it gets a little hectic out there’, in speaking to his native East Oakland. One could surely assert that that same sentiment could apply to the entire world now, as well. We’re surely dealing with some unprecedented circumstances these days, and it would be pretty easy for us all to complain and whine about how limited we are now, in dealing with self-isolation and social distancing, due to the current pandemic. But rather than harp on the negative and focus on that end of the spectrum, we’ve decided to take more of a grateful approach to where these conditions have placed us. Home.</span></span></div>

<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">And the cool thing about being home all day, (apart from binging reruns of <i>The Honeymooners</i>), is that we finally have the time now to invest in the things we really love and enjoy. And that could be anything from our families, more exercise, meditation, hobbies, reading, writing, etc. But this post is all about <i>music</i>. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">This site was started with the intent of championing music and its rich history and how that’s influenced us so much and has enriched our lives in such great ways. In times of uncertainty, as well as good times, and when we just want to relax and zone out, it’s more than likely that most of us tend to lean on music for that escape. It’s the warm fuzzy scarf on the chilly day, or the ice-cold bottle of water after running a full-court of basketball during the summer. Music is the friend that will always have your back, no matter what mood you’re in. It will never leave you. So it’s only right that we show some appreciation to what’s always been in the background of our best moments and still acts as the soundtrack of our lives. <i>The music.</i> </span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Over the past few years, I’ve really started in rebuilding my vinyl collection. I’m old enough to remember what it was like to buy an album on cassette. Running home excited, and not being able to wait to rip the plastic off, so I could read the liner notes and study everything in them. Our affinity for cassettes (homemade and retail) shifted to CD’s in the years to come. And we would lose our minds for those too. Carrying 25-30 discs at a time in CD caddies and changing albums in and out of a <i>Sony Discman</i> while casually walking down the street with our friends, was a daily occurrence. I can’t say we expected the digital boom that was to come, which is evidenced by how many hundreds of physical media, such as cassettes and CD’s, ended up in boxes after we all adjusted to the new mp3 craze that would swoop in and change not only how we <i>listened</i> to music, but also the actual music industry <i>itself</i>, forever. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">So I decided to get back to the essence, in a way. I wanted music and the acquirement of music to feel the way it did way back in the day. I loved being able to throw a million songs on an iPod and have every piece of music I owned in one place, but there was always something missing. A feeling. My appreciation for what music always felt like, was starting to dim. So after buying a new turntable and going back out to dig for vinyl, slowly but surely, that addiction to music and the heavy appreciation for collecting it, started to creep back in. My spot was Good Records in NYC. I started hitting them up a couple times a week for whatever classic album I could find and I’d be in there for 3-4 hours digging through crates searching for all things Hip Hop, Rock, Jazz, Funk & R&B, that I’ve always wanted and needed on vinyl. The more I went there, the more the itch intensified. So I started checking out other record shops across the country, even Barnes & Noble. Then there was Discogs and eBay for my online searches, and of course, ol’ reliable, Amazon. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-kerning: none;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">As time went on, my shelves started to get tighter and tighter, to the point where I had to get new shelves to store all of the vinyl that I had been buying. But with all these records coming in and getting delivered every other day, I started to notice a change. My love for music and what it’s always meant to me, was back to its zenith. Being able to actually hold an album and study the cover, scan the gatefold credits or go over the list of band members on a classic jazz album, all of these things are what made me so deeply connected to music as a kid. And getting back into collecting physical media, has sparked that love again, in a way that’s pretty hard to explain. I know it’s become trendy to buy vinyl now, and I have no problem with the newcomers. Music is a platform that welcomes all, and I think it’s great when I see vinyl newbies in the shops digging for something good. We’re really all one big family. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Back at home, I upgraded my turntable to the Audio-Technica AT-LP120-USB, last year, up from the LP-60. It’s been a dream and a steal at the price it goes for, in relation to how high quality it is and performs. I constantly re-sleeve my records with fresh sleeves and organize them by genre and artist. That way, I can pull from the shelves quickly and know where everything is. It’s a rather expensive habit, but it can also be a messy one, if you’re not meticulously organized. With the USB version of my turntable, I can also buy older vinyl to sample from and run the signal right into my Mac, to use for beats later, if I choose to. I can also convert those songs into files to have on my phone, if I can’t find them on Spotify or own them already. The move back into collecting again, really has refreshed my love for something I’ve been obsessed with since I was a kid, and it’s also connected me with other vinyl-addicts who share that same love for the forgotten medium that we all left behind the minute cassettes popped up on the scene. So this post is kind of a love letter to vinyl and also an apology as well, for us forgetting where we came from. It feels good to be reunited. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">There’s nothing better than getting lost in music and just sinking into a really dope album. That’s why we’re going to start a new vinyl appreciation label on here for posts, where we’ll have classics albums on vinyl that everyone should check out or own. We’ll document digging trips and highlight great finds, our favorite sellers, other collectors, and also promote our favorite record shops, and speak about the joy of both digging in the crates, but also collecting vinyl and the benefits of doing so. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">With that said, we’re excited to bring this new look to the site and we hope that you’ll enjoy it or even share your adventures with vinyl or digging with <i>us</i>. Stay safe out there and throw some good music on!</span></span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">The classic track by Jay-Z, “Streets is Talking”, always rings true when it comes to kicks. If you listen hard enough, you’ll always hear a rumor about an upcoming drop or some holy grail that’s secretly sitting in stock somewhere, just waiting for you to cop. We just caught wind of some new news about one of the most-coveted kicks from last year, so you know we had to come through with the details as they emerge. </span><br />

<span style="font-kerning: none;">It has long been rumored that Jordan Brand would be releasing a third version of the Nike Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard.” Now, <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(19, 72, 135);">leaked product images</span> seemingly confirm that. And we’re all for it. </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The sneaker will follow in the footsteps of the <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(19, 72, 135);">original release</span>, which dropped in June 2015, as well as the <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(19, 72, 135);">second iteration</span>, which was made available in October 2016. There was also a <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(19, 72, 135);">women’s-only, satin version</span>, which dropped in last year.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">This version of the “Shattered Backboard” Air Jordan 1 features a black leather base with orange leather detailing on the Swoosh, ankle, heel, and toe box. Nike Air branding is on the tongue tag, while the Jordan Wings logo is on the ankle. A white midsole and black outsole complete the look. They’re said to retail for about $160, on or around October 4th. Keep a look out for these. We think they’ll sell super quickly. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">80’s babies rejoice! If you’re old enough to remember how awesome Saturday morning cartoons were, or the ones we rushed home after school to see, you remember how pivotal cartoons and comic-books were for us as kids. And you know, we’re all about themed-kicks on AA. So when a cool pair drops, we just have to shine a little light on them. Especially when they’re based on one of our favorites from back in the day, via one of our beloved sneaker brands. </span><br />

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Foot Locker and Hasbro have teamed up for a limited-edition GEL-Lyte 3 collaboration that takes inspiration from the iconic G.I. Joe characters Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes. If you know anything about these two characters, you know they’re probably the most coveted out of all of the figures, if you ever collected the toys. The prices they go for on eBay now are certainly proof of that. </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">In G.I. Joe, Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes are brothers in arms turned mortal enemies. Each character gets its own GEL-Lyte 3 sneaker, one predominantly black and the other predominantly white. Subtle detailing throughout hints to the characters’ personalities and the Storm Shadow vs Snake Eyes story arc.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The black Snake Eyes model features a leather upper with reflective detailing and a crystal rubber outsole. The white Storm Shadow version also features a crystal rubber outsole and a leather upper. On the bottom of both colorways is an iced outsole revealing Zartan, a character who plays a key part in the Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow story.</span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">If you buy as many running shoes as we do, you know that certain pairs really stand out for you and remain close to your heart. Last year, after being unveiled for the London marathon in April, the Vaporfly became one of our favorites by a mile (no pun intended). The first time you step into them, is an experience all on its own. It’s like stepping on a foam mattress, but with a lot more support and stability. With so many choices for running shoes out there for us, you’d be hard-pressed to find a shoe as awesome as these. These are dubbed as the fastest 3D-printed sneaker ever, and have been developed in collaboration with the world renowned Kenyan marathoner, <a href="https://news.nike.com/news/eliud-kipchoge-3d-printed-nike-zoom-vaporfly-elite-flyprint"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(19, 72, 135);">Eliud Kipchoge</span></a>.</span><br />

<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(35, 35, 35); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;">And with the <a href="https://www.marathon.tokyo/en/"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(19, 72, 135);">2019 Tokyo Marathon</span></a> soon approaching, (March 3rd), Nike Harajuku has revealed details on the arrival of a new colorway, dominated by tones of purple and black. The silhouette is extremely limited and buyers will have a chance to but them, only if they have been selected via raffle. The key details, however, are that buyers must be able to prove that they are indeed marathon runners. So you’ll probably want to register for an actual race now!</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(35, 35, 35); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">According to Nike Japan’s website, the potential buyers who are chosen must be able to show proof that they have run a full marathon, which is about 26 miles, in three hours or less (no easy task), sometime after the conclusion of the Tokyo Marathon. Interestingly, Nike Japan did not reveal exactly how they will extract the information needed. However, once the requirements have been met, customers will be given a chance to purchase the sneakers.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">If you’re lucky enough to snag a pair, you’ll notice that the shoes feature a newly innovated Flyprint performance-printed 3D upper that offers more breathability and also boasts almost zero water retention. The model is paired with a full-length carbon fiber plate, and a thick signature NikeZoomX midsole unit that offers superb support and comfort.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Word is, they’ll be dropping<b> </b>on<b> </b>March 4th in Japan, for what has been rumored at a whopping $600 or more, which is similar to what the 2018 London Marathon release went for. Either way, this is one pair of kicks that you definitely won’t see everywhere and one that we think you’d cherish and enjoy to the fullest. </span></div>

And if you’re walking the busy streets of Los Angeles, Atlanta or New York, you’ll surely notice that most of us are wearing Apple’s AirPod’s. Light and super convenient, they’ve become a staple in our arsenal of smartphone accessories and something we never want to leave the house without. But there are always other options on the horizon for audiophiles and we thought we should shine some light on one that’s caught our attention of late. </span><br />

<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Thanks to the premium leather wireless charging case, Beoplay E8 2.0 are totally wireless, allowing you to charge the earphones by simply placing the case on a wireless charging pad. The wireless charging case holds three full charges, giving up to 16 hours of playing time. An LED light is featured on the the front of the case to signify the state of charging, while three LED lights on the back detail the number of full charges remaining.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">When placed inside the charging case, the earphones are surrounded by an inlay of brushed single or double anodized aluminum, depending on the color. Lastly, the case also comes with USB-C allowing you to charge Beoplay E8 2.0 with a cable.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Subsequently, Bang & Olufsen’s original Beoplay E8 earphones are also compatible with the new wireless charing case, so existing owners can enjoy the benefits of wireless charing. This in turn means that the case will be sold separately as well.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Each earpiece of Beoplay E8 2.0 has a 5.7mm dynamic speaker, a small electromagnetic transducer, NFMI technology and a Bluetooth 4.2 chip with Digital Sound Processing. You can also tune the sound manually with the Bang & Olufsen app for Android and iPhone.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Beoplay E8 2.0 with a premium leather wireless charging case, five ear tips and UBS-C charging cable will retail for $350, launching February 14 at Bang & Olufsen, select retailers and <a href="http://www.bang-olufsen.com/beoplay-e8-2"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(21, 92, 153);">online</span></a>. The earphones come in Black, Indigo Blue, Natural and Limestone. The Wireless Charging Pad will be available in matching colors from April 2019. The retail price for the pad has yet to be revealed. The wireless charging case will be priced at $200, also available from April. If you’re looking to diversify, we think you should check these out when they release. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">Design pretty much runs our lives and keeps us inspired way more than we’d care to admit. And with there being so many creative artists out there bringing their creations to life for all of us to enjoy, we feel it’s our duty to spread appreciation for not only the work, but also the effort that’s gone into it. </span><br />

Each shaped canvas is crafted with layer upon layer of plywood, which the canvas is then stretched over before it’s painted. Ridges are left visible, lending texture and dimension to each piece.</span></div>

<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">It's no secret that we’re crazy about BMW. And one of the things that we love about innovation, is being able to highlight all of it on AA. It's no secret that all vehicles are not created equally, and BMW certainly takes no prisoners when it comes to going up against its competitors. At the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, <a href="https://www.bmw-m.com/en/index.html"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(21, 92, 153); color: #155c99;">BMW</span></a> caused a stir in the car world when it unveiled its new concept car, the BMW Concept M8 Gran Coupé. As you would expect from the automobile giants, the state-of-the-art sports car, which is the latest addition to the brand’s motorsport-inspired “M” sub-brand, had heads turning with its muscular form and exquisite aesthetic. But, according to BMW, its purpose is greater than that.</span><br />

<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Recognizing that the state of luxury is changing, BMW has established a new arm, known as Bayerische Motoren Werke, dedicated to redefining the meaning of luxury, and the M8 sits at its pinnacle. As one of the masters of the luxury car market, this statement isn’t to be taken lightly.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">BMW M’s Head of Design, Marcus Syring was interviewed by Lucy Thorpe recently, and shared some pretty cool insights, that we found interesting.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">“Describing luxury is a challenge because it is actually about having more than we rationally need,” explains Syring. “That is why the need for luxury is always great—it makes it possible to break out of rational thinking.”</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><b>“ There is no universal definition of luxury, but there’s one thing I’m sure of: luxury is and remains highly emotional.”</b></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">However, what Syring is sure about is that the way we deal with luxury has changed.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">“A progressive kind of luxury is developing that goes beyond the classical understanding,” he explains. According to Syring, luxury is more a question of attitude rather than demographic data. It is no longer about owning certain products from brands founded on tradition, craftsmanship, and a heritage in luxury. Today, factors such as personal gain and the emotional journey are more important. A person who seeks out a luxury product understands who they are and they equate luxury with personalization.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Obviously with physical products — whether cars or watches — design and technology play an important role.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;">“There are attributes with which we can make luxury tangible, including established values such as exclusivity and performance,” adds Syring. “When we speak of progressive luxury, further facets such as duality and progress are added.”</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;">When it comes to the car itself, Syring explains that there are three main factors he considers. First up is the physical function of the car—how it works, drives, and feels. Then there’s symbolic function, which relates to iconic design features that create an affiliation with the vehicle. Finally, there’s the aesthetic function.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><b>“We believe luxury is an intuitive and emotional experience, it should be experienced with all the senses.”</b></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The M8 ticks all these boxes. Aesthetically, the vehicle is a beast. Its sculpted exterior boasts a long bonnet, sweeping roof, flared wheel arches, and a short tail that harks back to the automaker’s sporting heritage. Recalling track racers, the car sits low to the ground and features the M range’s iconic radiator grille kidneys, sculpted lights, and dual twin exhaust tailpipes.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Form aside, one of the most visually striking and symbolic characteristics of the premium whip is its Salève Vert painted exterior. Inspired by the Northern Lights, the paint has an iridescent effect and shifts from shades of electric green to blue depending on the light. While it may not be the most common choice for a luxurious ride, it is definitely distinguishing and will no doubt polarize car fans. Hits of matte gold on the car’s kidney grill, brakes, wheel rims, and double twin exhaust tailpipes, however, nod to more conventional ideas of luxury.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">There hasn’t been any information revealed yet on either the car’s engineering specs nor its interior, but Syring shares, “It’s definitely more than enough.“ Plus, if the exterior is anything to go by, it will undoubtedly have all car fanatics drooling.</span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">We really love themed-kicks around here, and with the seasons changing so quickly, we think kicks with a little more flavor might be pretty dope to rock during the colder months, if you live on the East Coast or in the Midwest. ASICS has always been a brand that people slept on heavily. </span><br />

<span style="font-kerning: none;">They got a lot of love during the late 80’s and early 90’s, but seemed to fall off with sneaker heads after that. Runners still love the brand, but the casual line hasn’t shined, in our opinion, in quite awhile. So we were hyped to see this new collabo, and thought we should highlight this new pair. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Afew and BEAMS are throwing it back to the early-to-mid ’10s with this latest release, which is essentially a remastered, recolored version of Afew’s “Koi” ASICS GEL-Lyte 3 from 2012.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The sneaker’s upper features a primarily suede construction and orange color-blocking on the toe, heel, and sock liner. Gray paneling can be found on the sides, while the ASICS side stripes are done up in a rich navy blue. The sides of the heels feature BEAMS and Afew branding, and the backs of the heels feature a world map and the Japanese word for friendship. Two special insoles and a multi-colored outsole complete the look.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; color: #2e2e2e; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">These are schedule to drop on 11/10, for about $210. We think they’re worth the price, and definitely a pair that you won’t see everyone else wearing out there. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">Baseball season is coming to an end soon. And while football season is a few weeks in, and the regular basketball season fast approaches, we are definitely up to our ears in sports around this time of year. Streetwear, kicks, and jerseys are everywhere for us, but what about sporting goods? Not the kind you wear while playing, but the kind you collect and just keep on display. Today we thought we’d shed a little light on a new collaboration that caught our eye, that we find pretty damn cool.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Wilson Sporting Goods has joined forces with the renowned lifestyle brand MCM on a unique collaboration drawn from the gridiron and the hardwood. The two pieces take the form of a limited-edition football and basketball, each constructed from leather and featuring the classic Wilson logo and an all-over MCM monogram print. If you’re into collecting rare sporting goods, this might be the collection for you. Both are available now at special MCM pop-up shops at select Nordstrom locations.</span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">Sneakerheads certainly know that it’s all about collaborations and themed kicks, these days. One of the things we love about those concepts, is how they continuously refresh our favorite silhouettes, while keeping the same vintage feel to the shoes we’ve loved forever. It’s really become the best of both worlds, for those of us who are attached to classic kicks, but wouldn’t mind rocking them with a slightly new twist. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The original design for the Air Max 1 way back, marked a new era for Nike, and it all started in Paris. The shoe’s visible Max Air cushioning unit was inspired by the “inside-out” structure of Paris’ <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(21, 92, 153);">Centre Pompidou</span>. The new “By Day/By Night” pack honors legendary Nike designer Tinker Hatfield’s cutting-edge design and its inspiration with two new colorways.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The “By Day” version has a French tricolor flavor and looks to the striking piping of the Parisian landmark, draping the white upper in red and blue accents. The “By Night,” meanwhile, opts for a shimmering gray colorway with silver detailing. A clear outsole rounds off each shoe with a multi-colored tubing pattern underneath.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">We haven’t heard much on the pricing yet, but expect the limited edition kicks to drop via Nike on September 20th. Definitely try to pick these up, if you can. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">Some classics just never die, and when they resurface, we always show them the love they deserve. Vintage kicks have the kind of magic that we just can’t get enough of, and the Stan Smith from adidas is surely one of those. This is a shoe that looks fresh no matter what you wear with it. Basic, but still super stylish and fly at the same time. </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The low-tops boast an all-leather upper, then featuring a leather tongue and soft leather lining. Perforated Three Stripes branding is present alongside, while additional tagging takes over the tongue and the green heel tab. Lastly, tonal laces accompany to complete the revamped design.</span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">One thing we’ve always done at AA, is make sure that we keep our running family in the loop when it comes to running kicks. With the weather being runner-friendly now, we all like to get out there with the best gear for our runs and we also like to make sure we’re comfortable for the entire haul. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Nike is making some great moves with their running shoes, that we felt we had to highlight today. After upgrading its Zoom Fly line earlier in the year, they’ve now taken the Air Pegasus (originally released in 1983 as a versatile runner) to the next level. The result comes in the form of the Zoom Pegasus Turbo, which features the Swoosh’s highly responsive (and exclusive) ZoomX foam. The only two other silhouettes to utilize the ZoomX foam technology are the Zoom Vaporfly 4% and then Zoom Vaporfly Elite.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Unlike the aforementioned models, the Zoom Pegasus Turbo doesn’t include the carbon-fiber plate, due to feedback from runners that it provides too much propulsion for every day use. We’re not a fan of that either, so that was a good modification on their part. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">On the flip-side, to highlight just how fast this sneaker is, Nike designers put a thick racing stripe right down the middle of the Zoom Pegasus Turbo, giving off very obvious racing car vibes, which we think is pretty cool for aesthetic purposes. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The shoe features a highly responsive ZoomX foam in the midsole, aerodynamically shaped heel, curved heel collar, translucent mesh upper with Flywire cable integration, thick racing stripe running down the center from the top of the tongue to below the forefoot, small waffle pistons in the rubber outsole to help absorb impact, and 10-mm offset and 12-mm forefoot stack height to help runners store more energy.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">These drop on July 19th for NikePlus members in the U.S., China, Japan, Germany, U.K., and Brazil via the Nike and NRC apps. And globally on August 2nd. They’re retailing for around $180, and are seriously worth every penny. Give them a shot, if you can. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">Our <i>Architecture</i> posts have always been one of the most popular on AA. So when we went on hiatus, we knew that we had to come back with some heat, once the blog was rolling again. We’ve had all kinds of properties on here, and we’ve tried to show some variety when we could. Today, we have something that’s actually on the market. And if you’ve got a cool $23M, it can be yours. </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Legendary architect <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(21, 92, 153);">Frank Lloyd Wright</span> and his iconic Ennis House located in Southern California is on sale for $23 million after an extensive restoration, according to <a href="https://www.fastcompany.com/90180575/you-can-now-buy-one-of-frank-lloyd-wrights-most-iconic-houses"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(21, 92, 153);"><i>Fast Company</i></span></a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Constructed in 1924, the residence is defined by its temple-like aesthetic, and sits on a 36,000-square-foot plot in Los Angeles’ serene Los Feliz district, which is filled with beautiful ravines, hills, and forests.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">With the house measuring 5,500-square-feet, the residence utilizes Wright’s signature textile block design and incorporates 27,000 of these interlocking blocks, which were pre-cast in concrete using molds with Mayan-style reliefs. This distinctive style essentially reflects within the structure itself, as its overall volume is reminiscent of a Mayan temple.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The Ennis House is included in the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, and it was prominently featured in classic films like <i>Blade Runner</i>, <i>Black Rain</i> and <i>The Rocketeer</i>.</span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">We see all kinds of new sneaker designs every week. Some of them stand out, and others stand out so much that they make you want to buy them immediately. It’s hard to stay away from buying kicks these days, especially with so many really awesome models coming out. We’re waiting patiently for one particular Nike collaboration to drop in a couple weeks, and we think it will be well worth the wait. </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Nike has confirmed its latest collaboration with Amsterdam-based artist Piet Parra, the creative mind behind some of the most iconic Air Max 1 designs during the silhouette’s heyday in the mid-to-late ’00s. Now, eight years after his last Nike collaboration, we’re finally getting a brand new Parra x Nike design.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">The retail version of the kicks features a pattern-heavy leather and mesh upper and blue Swoosh branding on the sides, heel, and tongue. The friends-and-family Air Max 1 features Parra’s signature on the forefoot and a cloud pattern in place of the lateral Swoosh.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">These are said to be dropping on July 21st, but the price has yet to be announced. We’re keeping a close eye on these, and you should, as well. They definitely won’t last long in stores. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">Sometimes keeping it simple just isn’t the way to do things, with kicks. Every now and then, you need to liven up your footwear game with a little flare. And when Nike started bringing back the old silhouettes that did just that, we were definitely all-in. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Nike has taken atmos’ iconic “Safari” print from the Air Max 1 and implemented it on the Air Safari SE. The retro-flavored sneaker, originally released back in 1987, welcomes notable perforations to enhance breathability, of course while being highlighted by the spotted animal print overlays. An encapsulated Nike Air unit then provides enhanced cushioning, while a rubber waffle outsole gives ample traction.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">These are out now and run about $110, so pick up a quick pair, while you can. I don’t think these will sit in stores for long. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">We’re back, and better than ever. There was so much content that we wanted to post for the first post back. Sneakers, architecture, vehicles, etc. But we thought it would be cool to bring everything back with tech first. And with so many new things being created lately, we felt this would be a great place to start back up. </span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">After unveiling the <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(21, 92, 153);">BeoVision Eclipse</span> last year, Bang & Olufsen introduces a new iteration of the OLED 4K television, along with the BeoLab 50 loudspeaker rendered in a “Brass Tone and Smoked Oak” colorway.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Exuding timeless elegance and pure luxury, the BeoVision Eclipse boasts brass-tone aluminum on the motorized floor stand, as well as the side and rear of the audio center, making the TV sound and look beautiful from all angles. To complete the experience, the BeoRemote One BT Netflix version has been designed in brass-tone also, while the speaker cover on the front is handmade in smoked oak wood.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">In addition, the BeoLab 50 speaker has been carefully anodized in a brass-tone including the motorized acoustic lens, appearing when the loudspeaker is switched on, as well as the unique beam width control, controlling sound dispersion.

And away from kicks, one of the things we love most on those sunny days, is a great pair of slides.

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">With Spring right around the corner, it seems like classic kicks have been dropping left and right. Our good friends over at Nike have been releasing new Jordan’s like crazy, so it’s been so many great kicks to cop lately, that most people have bled their tax refunds dry by now in trying to keep up with everything. One of the most coveted kicks from the Jordan line has got to be the Air Jordan 1 “Bred Toe”. Classic look and feel, it’s always been one of my personal favorites, and it just so happens that they’ll be dropping again tomorrow. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">Design is everything these days. And we subconsciously gravitate towards things that we find aesthetically pleasing. They can be anything from natural items like flowers or a sunset, to more material items, such as clothing and cars. With London Fashion Week Men’s FW18 currently going, and with <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(21, 92, 153);">Louis Vuitton</span> scheduled to debut its presentation in the upcoming Paris Fashion Week, the luxury imprint’s menswear creative director <span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(21, 92, 153);">Kim Jones</span>, has provided a teaser of one of its offerings that’ll definitely garner the attention it deserves.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">Taking to social media indicating that the men’s show is only several days away, the accompanying image that Jones uploaded on Instagram reveals a closeup of an LV billiards table in red and white, detailed with a monogram flower pattern, while the entire ball set are all highlighted by LV motifs. The cue ball’s pristine makeup flaunts the fashion house’s insignia for a truly luxurious and clean finish.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(46, 46, 46); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-kerning: none;">If you’re feeling stylishly buoyant and if you’re in the market for a cool and fashionable pool set, we think this one might work nicely for you when it comes out. </span></div>
