Dain Fagerholm

Dain Fagerholm is an artist whose work I recently stumbled on over at Tumblr.

Pictured above is "Blue Girl" -and you can Check out more from Dain Fagerholm over at his blog.

Anonymous - Ism Socks

I can't even lie - Wifey put her foot down and said 'no more socks' for me. Evidently my collection has a grown too large over the last 6 years. I look at like this - I replaced a shoe obsession with a sock obsession, but that's neither here nor there. Fear not OSTT faithful - I will continue to be on the look for quality great finds like these! Purchase now over at Need Supply.

Freshjive - Miami Crime

Just the other day we did a post on Freshjive's new sub line, Basics - and now we're back with some imagery from the flagship's label Spring line. Nothing overly clever or stylish about this shirt - but I'll tell you what drew me in - the story. Freshjive is one of the best brands out there when it comes to telling the stories behind their designs - and the Miami Crime wave article is no different. Peep it here.

Puma - "Year of the Dragon"

If you drop 99 cents and sub out those fat laces - these red on red Puma's (made to pay homage to the Chinese Year of the Dragon) are the business. More pics over at Nice Kicks.

Tinker Hatfield x Jordan 2012

A couple weeks back while traveling for work - I went for an early morning run with our Chief Administrative Officer. During the course of our jog through Texas, we discussed many topics, one of which was prior employment, during which it came out one of his previous endeavors was serving as CAO for Nike at their corporate headquarters up in Portland, Oregon. Me being me, that led to rapid fire questions - the first of which was - "Did you ever meet/run in to Tinker Hatfield"? I couldn't help myself - after designing my favorite Nike models (Air Max 1, Air Presto) and everyone's favorite Jordan's, how is he not engrained in your head? I threw myself out there as a bit of a sneakerhead with that one, and he was quite shocked with the question ("I've been asked about a lot of individuals - Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, even Bo Jackson - but never Tinker"), but long story story short, yes he did know him, and shared some stories that aren't built for here.

Anyway - that was a long intro to basically say - "The Tinker Hatfield x Jordan 2012 Deluxe model is releasing today - March 14th. Check out the picture after the jump, and if interested, head to select Nike stores to purchase now!"

*Common Voice* - Love Love Love these! Converse and Stussy collaborate on a model rarely used - the Spring/Summer Sea Star. Check out more pictures at Hypebeast. These drop on March 16th, so be ready! Is it just me, or have there been a lot of HOT shoes dropping lately?

Wiz Khalifa | Taylor Allderdice (Mixtape)



I have high expectations for this (no-pun). If you have been slacking on your TGOD music go here for a quick update. I have a feeling this tape will be in the zone of Kush & OJ which to me was one of the best Wiz mixtapes to date. Be on the lookout around 5.

Cole Haan x Nike


Yes - you read that correctly. Cole Haan and Nike came together on a pair of wingtops featuring Nike's Lunar technology on the sole. This is one of the most exciting things I've seen when it comes to a pair of dress shoes really upping the antie by embracing technology. Up until now, these shoes have only been available at the SoHo Cole Haan flagship store - but as of Saturday, March 17th, three colorways are going to be released at the UNFTD flagship store off of La Brea in Los Angeles.
