Lookbook: Nike Sportswear NSW 2011 Spring/Summer Collection


Each season, Nike Sportswear’s NSW apparel line has pushed the boundaries of fashion and technology. Putting together a strong roster of innovative production techniques in a fashion forward approach has been one of the collection’s greatest strengths. As we set our eyes on Spring/Summer 2011, some of the outerwear pieces are highlighted. There’s no doubt the stadium jacket has been a strong component of the brand’s identity as NSW reappropriates the sports-centric style. A GORE-TEX Paclite trench coat also makes its way into the range and offers a highly functional option. The collection is available now through select Nike Sportswear NSW channels.

Timepiece: Nixon The Chronicle


Nixon recently launched their latest model, The Chronicle. Available in five new colorways, each version features a custom solid stainless steel band, equipped with a double-locking clasp for a secured fit. The Chronicle’s case also utilizes a custom stainless steel and adds a hardened mineral crystal. The display is restrained and in typical analogue format but with the addition of a date magnifier for clarity. The water resistance of The Chronicle makes it ideal for snorkeling, surfing and for the more adventurous spear fishing. Look out for all five colors via Nixon retailers and online.

The jacket features a mostly toned down design aesthetic, with an all-black tonal colorway, three-stripe sleeve design, triple star chenille embroidery and charcoal grey lining/accenting. The piece is now available through INVS, priced at $90 USD.
