Hype Means Nothing - Bowling Bag | Available Now

New from urban label Hype Means Nothing is not a new tee. Instead, the label returns to accessories after creating some sleeves for Apple goodies previously. This time around, to benefit those who are not on the Mac or iPhone game, Hype Means Nothing created a bowling bag everyone can use. Of course, the outer shell is covered in graphics of celebrities rocking the famed Hype Means Nothing finger eye glasses. Think all your favorite Hype Means Nothing celebs including Beyonce, Kanye and Mickey Mouse all on the same bag. The only thing better than donning one famous face, is donning them all together. The bag is now available for purchase via colette.



Air Jordan 1 Retro High – Silver Anniversary | Available


Jordan Brand is going into the holiday season with a lot of momentum. We’ve shown you some of the great collections based on the 25 year anniversary of the brand, and now we are finally seeing some of the anniversary items for sale. This Air Jordan I (1) Retro High model is a visual homage to the Silver anniversary, as the shoe is a silver color from the soles to the tongue. We’ve shown you previews of this model, and some detailed images, and now these Jordans, which feature crinkled silver material on the heel, collar, and toebox are available at e-retailer RMK. The inaugural model is the first to get the full anniversary treatment, as signified by the tongue logo that is both a vertical “23″ (his uniform number) and “25.” Also shown here is the ornate packaging, as the sneaker comes in a sleek silver briefcase complete with eggshell foam and the anniversary logo near the handle. Stay tuned to Freshness for more updates on other Air Jordan models that will be releasing to commemorate the 25 year anniversary.
