KANGAROOS’ OMNI-RACER

Posted on 2022-08-15

Titled the Omni-Racer, the offering boasts a handmade construction and arrives in two distinct colorways – “Saffron” and “Meranti.” The former is limited to 400 pairs and sees deep yellow nubuck overlays lying atop a cream mesh base. Hits of beige are well received on the tongues, medials and heels, while vivid blue pops on the tongue logos and a kangaroo outline peeks through the sides.

The “Meranti” colorway delivers a more muted approach, featuring brown suede overlays, contrasting cream panels and black detailing that accompany dashes of “Wasabi Green.” Only 100 pairs will be produced.

Both sneakers are individually numbered and packaged in exclusive boxing with custom artwork that matches the insoles.

AYAN FARAH – PERADAM

Posted on 2022-08-15

Farah’s works are an alchemy of substances applied on canvas, linen, hemp, and silk. She uses materials such as forest ash, clay, cloud-seeded water, indigo, mud, rust, and marigold to create dyes that are sometimes subdued in sunlight and fixed in vinegar.

The construction of her fabrics is dictated by available material and often includes off-cuts from earlier works, accumulatively stitched together into patchworks that contain the stories of their making. Farah’s practice is self-sufficient in that her works are generated from pre-sourced materials, home-grown pigments and fundamental environmental factors such as sunlight rather than automated processes or global supply chains.

WALKING FISH BY PEZ X UVD TOYS

Posted on 2022-08-15

Barcelona-based graffiti artist Pez brings his signature character to life with the Walking Fish vinyl art toy from UVD Toys. Seen on street murals, paintings and prints, Pez’s sea pal brings happiness and perhaps a hint of mischief with a wide, toothy grin, bulging eyes, compact body and of course, curious legs.

Expanding on Pez’s first vinyl art toy of his fish (2009), the new design features the character’s classic appearance with its distinct walking pose as rather than the squatting/fins pose of the previous figure. For the new toy, Pez has pushed the color treatment beyond a straight translation of the drawn and painted character, typically seen in solid blue. The debut edition features a subtle and stylish cyan outline as well as multiple shades of blue on the fins.

Limited to 200 pieces worldwide
