Frankie Morello Collection
Though Milan is frequently considered one of the
worlds capitals of fashion, its not without an
acute sense of humor regarding it. Enter Italian
label Frankie Morello, who has just unveiled
their new collection for Spring/Summer 2014.
Founders and lead designers Maurizio Modica and
Pierfrancesco Gigliotti aimed to explore the
parallels between the food industry and fashion
in their latest range, with the assortment of
shirts, blazers and trousers all adorned with
unique, immensely humorous references to
cheeseburgers, sushi and even fruit salads. While
this may at first seem a farce, the collection is
a sartorial home run, featuring tastefully thin
collars on shirts, crisply cut lapels, and subtle
nods to sailing culture within the color palette.
This well-executed range is the result of
painstaking thought and wittiness, which as the
designers have noted, perhaps might be missing in
other things we take in.

Zanerobe 2013 Summer Collection
Zanerobe started off as a bet between two
friends. Over beers one day, co-founder Jonathan
Yeo recalls seeing a guy dressed in a hideous
striped shirt and betting Leith Testoni then
the more fashionable of the two that he
couldnt design a better garment. In Yeos words,
It was on. Now one of the most exciting young
labels hailing from Australia, Zanerobes unique
brand of sportswear fuses quality workmanship
with bold designs that draw from influences as
diverse as American prep and Australian surfwear.
Featured this season are staples like
short-sleeve button-downs and chinos infused with
summery colors and vibrant patterns, along with
considered details like elasticated cuffs and
contemporary fits. In other words, theyre the
kind of garments perfect for adding new life
and a hint of the exotic to tired summer
wardrobes. Look for Zanerobes new arrivals for
Summer 2013 now at our online store.

Adidas Basketball Unveils Crazy Light 3
Just over a year after unleashing the Crazy Light
2 on courts worldwide, adidas Basketball now
delivers the third installment of its
featherweight high top the Crazy Light 3. Here
we find the Crazy Light 3 weighing in at just 9.4
ounces, removing the previously seen plastic heel
counter in favor of a full mesh upper. This
upgrade doesnt sacrifice support though, as
adidass patented four-layer SPRINTWEB upper
wraps the foot in maximum cushioning. This works
in conjunction with the highly tested SPRINTFRAME
midfoot chassis, which adapts to foot motion on
the fly for full custom support. The first
incarnation of the shoe is executed in a bold
blue and electric green colorway, with nine other
color combinations accompanying the shoes
release on August 1.

One of the more interesting perspectives from the
Kanye West Yeezus release was the archive of
samples that were curated by Gianni Lee and Mike
Blub. The duo have returned again this time to
add their touch to Jay-Zs recent Magna Carta
Holy Grail full-length. The selection of samples
provides a deeper appreciation for the extent and
breadth of the music knowledge of Hov as well as
the other collaborators from the album. The
sample list includes bites from the likes of
Sizzla, Johnny Guitar Watson, Adrian Younge,
Nirvana, Mase, R.E.M., Gonjasufi and many more.
Taking it even further into Hovs resume, Lee and
Blub also offered a mix of samples from Jay-Zs
Reasonable Doubt album.
