大事/YOHOOD SNAPS

YOHOOD_PG1

This event was a nice surprise. Rather underestimated it as I was kind of flying blind. Upon arrival I was quickly brought up to speed. It was the first street wear event of its kind in Shanghai.Thrown by YOHO group, bringing together vendors from all over the world. Lets not get it twisted, by vendors I mean some of the biggest players in the game. A lot of faces looked familiar as brands like Nike, Adidas, Stussy, Undefeated, and Clot were all there complete with their head honchos in attendance. Besides the obvious, some pleasant surprises for us included meeting the designer from Hood By Air and also seeing the Chinese booths and wares. Just the tip of the iceberg! Oh and we snapped at a few folks we thought were draped out and dripped out for the event. Check, check.

這個活動充滿著不少驚喜。YOHO集團在上海舉行首個街頭衣著大會。這不是一個隨意的活動,它帶來不少大品牌來到這次活動,如Nike, Adidas, Stussy, Undefeated, 和Clot,如此同時,這些品牌的老闆和首席設計師亦前來參與這項盛事,真的令人感到驚喜。除了看這些大人物之前,我們很高興看到即來登陸的品牌- Hood By Air 和一些中國品牌的攤位和他們的設計。在在個活動開始的時候,我們拍下一些十分有造型的朋友,讓大家看看他們精心打扮的造型。

怪食/BREAD

bread

What is this? Bread-on-a-stick of course! If your familiar with China you know for some quick eats there are a lot of road side stalls with skewers; veggies, and meats. So the story goes, we were in the middle of butt-funk and settled for a dinner at a skewer restaurant that seemed popular in the neighborhood. The locals were over-friendly to obnoxious, but we saw them eating a skewer never seen before. What exactly? Yep, bread. It wasn’t bad. It went well with our beer. What made it tiresome was that all our skewers were marinated in the same spice, so after a while everything just tasted the same. Bread roasted over fire. With spice. Get you some.

這是什麼?相信認識中國的人對這個食物並不陌生,這是麵包串燒。在中國的街邊小食有很多,蔬菜串燒、不同肉類的串燒。故事就是這樣發生,我們一伙子人去了附近一間頗有名氣的串燒攤吃晚餐。那裡的人十分之熱情地招呼我們去試一些食物,有一款我們都沒有看過,這是麵包串燒。這味道搭配著啤酒真還不錯。但不好的是所有串燒都用同一種醃料醃製,所以所有串燒的味道是一樣。但麵包串燒味道,加上香料,真特別。下次經過的話,耍試試這個吧!

毒品/LANVIN CROSS TRAINERS

LANVIN_SNEAKS1

LANVIN_SNEAKS2

高級品牌Lanvin走進運動世界,推出新一季的運動鞋。作為運動迷的我們,當然立即向大家匯報。看到這季的運動鞋,有不同顏色的搭配,亦有不少細節可以留意,如不同的物料拼湊而成,這方面花了不少心思。但我覺得這運動鞋欠缺了LANVIN的特色。有一點可惜,但是這次為之後的運動產品方面打下根基,相信之後可以更好。

SPITGAN staff is divided right down the middle on these kicks by Lanvin. So it clearly falls on the ‘pro’ side to write the caption. Nice color ways and sublte details do it for me. Lacings, mixing textures, even some clear sole action give the shoe a lot of flavor. I think overall the silhouette is on point as well. Add another to the growing Lanvin sneaker archive.

毒品/OPENING CEREMONY X ADIDAS FW13

OCxADIDAS1

在大家的印象中Adidas只是一個運動品牌?! 它不只是一運動品牌,它有不同合作的副線,如Adidas by Stella McCartney, Adidas X Jeremy Scott, Y-3…,,而The new Opening Ceremony X Adidas亦是其合作副線之一。看到這季2013FW秋冬系列十分喜愛,尢其是其印花圖案和顏色搭配,令人另眼相看。這季它們用了攀登作主題,表示有趣及年輕,而看到每件衣服的搭配性很高,可以搭配出不同的個性和感覺。

One thing Adidas does really well is the fashion collaboration. The new Opening Ceremony X Adidas line for FW13 is no exception. In fact, it has only improved. Really liking the patterns and color palettes. The climbing theme is nicely incorporated, the men’s high top looks fresh, and the panelled quilting pieces seem versatile in many a mix and match situation. Get yours.
