Lacoste x Shoes-Up

Lacoste hooked up with French sneaker magazine Shoes-Up and they designed the Missouri model into a unique effort celebrating the spirit of France. Shoes-Up take inspiration from the iconic French beret's traditional wool fabrications, with the kicks implementing that same material throughout the uppers with black tonal detailing and a silky interior lining.

These kicks are extremely limited, only 160 pair have been made !

Included with the kicks will be a classic black Basque Beret and a 148 page "Beret" photograph book by Charles Levy, packaged in a unique hat box.

For those who missed the release on December 1st at Colette (Paris), Reed Space (New York), Dover Street Market (London) or Limited Edition (Barcelona), we got some good news...

Tarmak will be having 9 pairs for sale in January '09.

More info soon !

Nike SB "Made for Skate" Exhibition

To accompany the January 2009 release of the book "Made for Skate", throughout the month of December and a few days into January, Nike SB has set up an exclusive "Made for Skate" space. Outlining a number of different skate-relevant artifacts, a number of old school pieces are on hand for viewing. To also mark the event, a limited edition pair of modified Nike SB Blazers were created based on a 1979 Hobie classic.

These Nike SB "Made for Skate" Blazers, limited to 24 pairs worldwide, dropped on November 30th, so once again we went to Amsterdam for a new camp-out ! This time no pairs were kept aside for friends and family, even Nike employees had to line up, so we had more chance to grap a pair.

The limited Nike SB Made for Skate Blazer. One pair went to the exhibition, so only 23 pairs were for sale !

The original Hobie shoe from '79.

Ebay Charity Nike Dunk. This pair was auctioned off at a 2003 ASR event. The anonymous top bidder paid $ 30,000 and had a pair in his size sent to him. The pair seen at the auction was sawed into pieces in front of everyone, in order to keep the bidder's pair a "1:1" ratio.

New Balance x Lijsfstijl release

Last saturday Dutch sneaker and street wear store Lijfstijl released a special collaboration colourway of the New Balance 577. Lfstl decided to use a cockroach (kakkerlak) as inspiration when creating their new New Balance collabo. 

Inspired by their hometown, the guys produced the 577 'cockroach' as a homage to Rotterdam, a city with many contrats in architecture. Grey, black and white are regularly used colours in all Rotterdam buildings. Petrol indicates the industry and harbour, but also the river that runs through the city and divides it in two. Purple translates innovation in architecture and Rotterdam's open-minded character. 

The end result is classy and rather more subtle than such a volatile mix would indicate.

(2am pic)

We drove to Rotterdam on friday evening and the camp-out already started ! I was number 15 in line. The first guy arrived at 8am friday morning !

Besides the dutch people, some campers came from France and Germany. 

I finally got my pair after 12 hours in line, it was very cold but well worth it !

Check out the video, maybe you can spot me...

Tarmak will carry New Balance pretty soon !

Amid the never-ending mission to find the next adventure comes a snowboard film that opens doors to the possibilities . Dedicated to everything snowboarding, Travis Rice and a dream crew set out on a seek-and-destroy operation for the new zone, the new trick and the new perspective on the sport. New Zealand, Valdez, B.C., Munich, Tokyo, Jackson Hole and deeper... seen in a new light with the action that leaves you wondering, how did they do that? Aspiring to bring you closer, the Hi Def, 35mm, super16 footage answers the question why Travis Rice and his friends have poured blood, sweat, tears and soul into a simple thing like snowboarding.
