UBIQ also got in the new Nike SB Bag Summer Collection. It includes the colorful Eugene Backpack… Why Eugene? Eugene, Oregon is where the University of Oregon is located, the spiritual home of Nike, Bill Bowerman, and Steve Prefontaine. A bit of history for those not in the know.

The Adidas ZX 700 Boat was popular last season and now they have a new version for Fall 2008. The ZX 700 Boat Lea is all dressed up for the colder weather.

This boat shoe features nubuck complemented with a tartan lining and trim. The white sole and top stitching is a nice contrast to the rest of the dark shoe. The gold lace eyelets are another fine touch. Look for these shoes at select Adidas retailers soon. Via High Snobiety.

Revive Customs partnered with youth arts project Mobile Jam Fest to create this unique pair of Air Force Ones. Mobile Jam Fest runs contests for young fashion designers including shoe design contests. The winner of the latest shoe design contest won this pair of Air Force Ones courtesy of Revive Customs. I am sure the winner is thrilled to have such a great pair of custom sneakers from a renowned designer.

The theme of these shoes was “Paid in Full” and uses imagery reminiscent of the Grand Theft Auto game series. The right side of the shoe features a bag of money with a dollar sign on the front that is typical in cartoon bank heists. Revive Customs put the grill of the getaway car on the other side of the shoe.

I love the colors used by Revive to bring this interesting design to life. Readers can learn more about Revive’s work by checking out the blog linked here.

As part of the eS Fall collection, they collaborated with artist Adrian Blanca on these two models – the eS TT Deluxe and Accel TT L. Both shoes feature Blanca’s laser-etch artwork on the upper.

The white TT Deluxe sneaker uses the etching sparingly, just on the strap and side panels with the rest of the shoe remaining plain. The brown Accel TT L has an allover etching and a black gum sole. These shoes are built for comfort, flexibility and breathability with lightweight construction, a breathable tongue, foam footbed, gel insert and grippy flexible tread. I’m not sure if I like the look of the brown shoe – from a distance they might just look like your shoes are muddy. These shoes are expected at retailers within the month. Via High Snobiety.
