lv - carnet de voyage: tokyo at beinghunted we're not so much into high fashion labels - except for the lv/gucci swooshes on our air force is. however, this item here is something you should have. the travel notebook by louis vuitton shows you the nicest spots in tokyo as seen by the female etching artist yoko yamamoto. see: image | kicks | bathing ape - bape sta we all agree that the air force i is a true classic. we also agree that customizing trainers - as long as it is done well - can make a shoe even better than the original. but why would we want to buy an af i look-alike by bathing ape with a swoosh-like star on the side and 'ape' written on the side? please help us find a reason and contact us. see: images |

air force i thank you nike - for giving us hope for 2002. with the new af i colors we can see light after the darkness of those last 6 months. please stay focused and try to follow the right path. even though the af i is a classic in itself there have been quite a number of misfits among the released colorways. the two featured here are some of the nicest so far. see: images |

lowrider if it comes to functionality in clothing nobody beats the japanese. lowrider, famous for their extra slick shop design, have released new gear for the winter. high quality materials, excellent cuts and decent colors. all in all nice to look at and extremely comfortable to wear. however, those sizes are for japanese folks! if you're over 6 ft - you can save your money. get a tee instead. see: images |

clarks vs. padmore & barnes we at beinghunted prefer quality over quantity. those folks at clarks probably don't. as you might know, the original wallabee was handcrafted in ireland which meant that there wasn't that much of a high output. as soon as the wallabee-hype started, clarks shifted production to china. not only has the quality suffered but the whole fit of the shoe is different. if you still want the original, forget clarks - padmore & barnes of ireland should be your choice. see: images | go to: padmore & barnes |

labels to watch |
one true saxon, uk if you are tired by duffer, silas, and co. here is the next brit-cool label which will find its way into those union/hideout/de zigne stores around the world. as always with those brits, focus lies on high quality materials and subtle graphic details. the current collection consists of knitwear, denim and new interpretations of otherwise traditional outerwear. see: images | kicks | puma ltd. the mostro is a great shoe. especially in that highly desirable camouflage style. you have that one? do you need another pair? yes, since nike has been quite lame those last couple of months and the metro attitudes won't be released until spring, get yourself a pair of the new mostro ltd. go search for a dealer that carries this fine shoe. see: image |
