Check out Obey’s Fall 2010 Men’s collection. It’s full of denim jackets, skullies, and casual button downs. All of it has a very hard-working American, cheeseburgers-and-fries kind of feel. All of the jackets are a win…can’t decide which is my favorite.

Evan Sellers of The Legendary Shots (a group that tapes themselves pulling off the most difficult basketball tricks and posts the footage on YouTube), successfully made the world’s longest basketball shot. Sellers threw a Spalding ball from the top of the Vulcan Monument in Birmingham, Alabama to a basket waiting below.

Ridiculous.
Here are the measurements the Legendary Shots provided:
Height: The platform is 134 feet above ground level, and the ball was released from about 6 feet above the platform. The goal was 10 feet high and was placed about 10 feet …

Air Jordan‘s new Flight 45s are dope as hell. It’s the first hybrid shoe that I’ve actually been into, with a perfect use of color (the teal and red detailing goes so hard) and a sleek silhouette. The shoes also come with a translucent Jumpman tag fastened in one of the eyelets, a teal Jumpman along the heel and a Jordan strap along the upper.
Not too much, not too little. These will be classic.

Possibly the most beautiful thing you’ll see all day. A “French young globetrotter” named Romain Corraze, travelled around the world captured sunsets in 31 different countries on camera and turned his footage into a beautiful 3:45 minute video of the sun setting over oceans, skyscrapers, trees and mountain ranges. It’s just captivating.

I’m not really into to labels. Partly because I don’t like to look like a walking advertisement for this brand or that brand, and also because these days I’m what most people would consider “broke”. So I tend to avoid falling head over heels with clothing lines. However, I just can’t help myself with Hellz Bellz. Firstly, as a writer, I love a good name. Second, they just come out with good products. For example, Hellz Bellz’s 80′s-inspired collaboration with Baby G watches is perfection. It comes in two different …

Apple products have managed to turn us all into tech nerds. People line up for hours awaiting their newest release (that usually looks a lot like an  iPod, but with new tricks), and this video takes us back to where it all began. In just a few, short minutes YouTube user, Matts Macintosh managed to create a visual timeline of all of Apple’s designs, from their clunky first computers, to the colorful release in the early 2000s, to the iPad.

San Francisco-brand Huf just released it’s Fall 2010 Collection, featuring a variety of subtle colorways including blue, olive green, cream, red and black. Not so sure about the stars around the some of them, but overall, it’s worth a look.

Everything looks better in slow motion. The French techno band, Dancing Pigeons just released their video for “Ritalin“, and although I never heard their music before, this video is enough to make me a fan. It centers around a duel between two truck-driving, mullet-having, suspenders-loving men who battle it out with a flame thrower and a fire extinguisher. According to the director, Tomas Mankovsky, they weren’t sure how the whole thing would turn out before they started shooting. Luckily, in slow motion, the clashing of the two has a very cool effect.

Hmm..this …

So I think I’ve fallen in love with another women’s line. I’m a few days late on this but Butch Diva recreated one of the most iconic looks from one of my all time favorite movies. Remember Julia Roberts‘ skimpy, cutout mini dress from Pretty Woman?

Check out the 2010 version…

This makes me so happy.

The Ballerina Project is one of the most creative and beautiful art projects I’ve seen in awhile. It takes ballerinas out of the mirror-lined studio and places them in the dirty, gritty graffiti-covered streets of New York City. Posing in iconic parts of NYC – the subway, the East River, the Williamsburg Bridge – the dancers stand en pointe and blend two vastly contrasting cultures: the cultured and refined world of ballet and the grimy and fabulous city streets.

Make sure to check out the Ballerina Project’s blog. There are plenty …

I once heard a man describe Tumblr as “the most fun on the Internet, right now”, and I have to say, that besides DC Streetwear (hee, hee), Tumblr really is the most entertaining thing on these Internet streets. For those of us who aren’t familiar, Tumblr is like a combination of Flickr, Twitter and Google Reader. You can follow people’s blogs, looking at the original photos they’ve posted as well as stuff that they’ve dug up on the web.
I only joined about two months ago (sourstrawsnmangojuice.tumblr.com) but I’m already well …

Apparently, Wayne really is working on the Carter IV from Rikers. Drake recently did an interview with MTV for their “Mixtape Daily” series (which those of us who have MTV Jams are familiar with), and told his interviewer that Lil’ Wayne let him hear two new verses he’d written from behind bars. According to Drake, the bars Wayne let him hear are good enough to make him want to find a new career path. The Young Money softie seemed to be really excited about Wayne’s work. Check out the video:
