LUKER by neighborhood A/W 2010 Collection

Here we have the new A/W collection lookbook and clothing line up from LUKER by neighborhood.

Sticking with its '60s British Mod/Rockers theme we see more Ben Sherman and Dickies collaborations and some really nice wool knit wear. I'm a big fan of the knit sweaters.

Fonsworth Bentley - Greener | Video

Fonsworth Bentley's long awaited music career is finally starting to makes some moves as he just released his first single and video, "Greener"...



While I'm not 100% sold on this song or the fact that Mr. Bentley can make for a great musical artist, I have been a fan of what he's put out so far. So it's nice to see some headway finally being made. And it seems like his music has a Sa-Ra type vibe which I definitely dig! Wouldn't be surprised to see Taz and Sa-Ra on the album actually.

Stussy x Ren & Stimpy

Happy-Happy Joy-Joy! for all fellow Ren & Stimpy fans! Stussy has been going crazy with collabs for their 30th anniversary this year, and while Ren & Stimpy might not be the most high profile of the group, it sure has me excited...




These are available now on Stussy's online shop and are apparently rather limited. Bout to go see if the NYC flagship carries them today, I'll update when I find out.

Sebago Nexus Project - Marcus Troy X Ronnie Fieg Docksides

The 1st round of Sebago and Ronnie Feig's Nexus Project is set to release today (6/25 @ 10am), in the form of some amazing Docksides designed by Marcus Troy...





And here is Mr. Troy for a couple of words on his part of the Nexus Project...




The full grain brown leather pair with red soles are super smooth and would absolutely kill with the right khakis. Then the rough grey suede pair with blue soles are done perfectly with just the right hint of color to balance the dark and rugged upper.

Both pairs release today, June 25th, at 10am online at DavidZ.com and at the David Z flagship located at 556 Broadway in Manhattan. Limited to only 48 pairs each and retailing at only $110, these WILL be gone by the end of the day so act fast!


Oh and if you are unfamiliar with this whole Nexus Project, peep here. William Yan, Joshua Kissi of Street Etiquette, Greg Weinsten of Culture Shoq, and director Jake Davis all have their own Sebagos coming as well, lets see if they can match the bar set by Marcus Troy though.

A Bathing Ape 2010 Autumn Lookbook by Nigo

Pharrel and Nigo's brand Billionaire Boys Club has always released online Lookbooks for each season and this year Bape have taken on this idea with the A Bathing Ape 2010 Autumn Lookbook by Nigo


Featuring Nigo wearing items from the upcoming season, the lookbook also informs us of dates and prices of releases

No news on whether or not this will replace the usual mook that is released for each season. I would be surprised as they must make good money on those? We will have to wait and see.

Super - Leather Wrapped Flat Tops

The Super Flat Top has arguably become their most popular model, and for the Fall it will be getting the full leather wrapped treatment...






Haven't jumped on the Flat Top bandwagon as of yet, but the brown and orange pairs are making me want to! However the hiked up $370 price tag on these might keep a few people from picking them up this Fall. Keep a look out for these at top Super accounts in the coming months.

Jade - IMHC REMIX RDV | Music

Not gonna lie, I've wanted to introduce the SwaggerDap community to the lovely Jade<3 for sometime now; but I always thought this guy John would have some sort of conniption about her "not fitting our market" and "blah blah blah". Well, in a Shyamalanesque turn of events, he actually told me to blog this. So yeah,

Photobucket


Download: Bandcamp

Some of you may recognize Jade for being on a couple of Mickey Factz songs, including: Ashes,Naturally, Summertime, and more; but she's actually been doing a lot of work on her own, and even has some career history with Star Trak. (But shhh, she doesn't talk about that much)

Well, the IMHC REMIX project consists of remixes of songs from her It’s My Heart Cookie EP, as well as a few new goodies; and it also contains production from the likes of Chuck Inglish of the Cool Kids, Melo-X, Precize, and much more.

It's mainly electronic and dabbles in a little dance, club, and easy listening. So if you're one of our female readers, download now, you'll love it; and if you're a dood, download it and share it with your female friends, you'll score some points, and may find that you dig it too, trust me.

Meez

P.S. Be sure to check out JadeisMusic.com for more Jade, and SongZiGe for more music I like, that I think wouldn't fit on SwaggerDap.

Photobucket

The Rakuten Eagles are another popular baseball team here in Japan, forming in 2005 in Sendai.

However, this time the items for sale are seats at an Eagles game in August vs the Chiba Lotte Marines. The tickets go on sale from the 25th June and will cost ¥10,000 each. Purchase of the ticket gets you entrance to one of the 3 games to be played, a free exclusive Bape t-shirt (different design for each night) and a fan meet and greet with Nigo and Baby Milo of the 7th July.

Now, the only question that remains is "When are your going to do a Yomiuri Giants collab Nigo?"
