Chad Muska’s venerable signature SUPRA Skytop 3 goes back to school with the new “Varsity” colorway offering. The all-white mesh/nubuck upper cleanly contrasts the emerald accents on the rubber sole sidewalls and upper lace eyelets. The Skytop isn’t just for looks though, as this skate-ready shoe houses full-length blown EVA in the entire forefoot and heel, and an EVA pod for added impact protection in the heel. It also features a fully enclosed mesh inner sock for added breathability. This Skytop 3 retails for $125 USD. You can pick up your own pair direct from SUPRA.

Michael Jordan, arguably one of the most recognizable names on the entire planet, is suing Chinese apparel company Qiaodan Sports for misrepresenting his name and brand. The lawsuit centers on the Chinese brand using the “well-known” Chinese translation of his name, Qiaodan, to build their brand without his permission. In 2010, Qiaodan generated more than $450 million worth of revenue. The above video finds His Airness explaining how important his name is, and why he feels it’s so crucial that the Chinese people aren’t misled.

It’s hard to believe that it has been 20 years since The Dream Team took to the courts in Barcelona and blew their respective opponents out by an average of 44 points. To celebrate not only the anniversary of the occasion, but the team as a whole, Nike Sportswear has rolled out several notable pieces of footwear to share in the revelry. Footwear styles include the Nike Air More Uptempo, Nike Shox BB4, Nike Air Force 180, Nike Air Zoom Huarache 2K4 and Nike Air Force 1 Hi. In describing trying to play The Dream Team, one defeated coach commented “you can’t cover the sun with your finger.”

Combining Nike’s lightest, most technologically advanced textiles with iconic graphics, the Nike Hyper Elite Basketball Uniform helps boost players’ performance and communicates the pride of USA Basketball. The innovation begins with Nike Aerographics, an engineered fabric that is a passive cooling solution allowing greater design and graphic flexibility while creating mesh areas in a garment without adding seams. It adds graphic interest to a garment that actually contributes to the performance by increasing air circulation. The Nike Hyper Elite Shorts to be worn by the USA Basketball team alone weigh in at 14 ounces lighter than the average shorts currently worn by professional players. The Hyper Elite Jersey, with its 3D-structured Dri-FIT fabric, helps pull sweat away from the skin and reduce cling while a functional flock screenprint on the inside of the collar provides further sweat management. The sleeveless v-neck silhouette, including hem vents and modified armholes, offers mobility while the slim fit reduces bulkiness and distraction. Finally, the debut of the Nike Hyperdunk, part of the landmark Lunarlon Collection. An innovative combination of advanced Nike Flywire technology and a basketball-specific Lunarlon cushioning system, this light, more supportive, durable and breathable shoe is expressly designed to meet the demands of elite basketball players worldwide. As modeled by Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, Deron Williams and LeBron James, the United States basketball pride is in good hands.

The past 5 games the Knicks have been killing, no not cause of Melo, not Amare either.It's been cause of the hands (and feet) of Jeremy Lin. This Harvard stand out has been showing up for the Knicks for the past few games with a average of 30 plus a game. Like all thing in this day in age and to quote Mike Jones "Now I'm hot,they all on me" Lin has gain some attention, a lot of it. ESPN, MTV and even ABC are a few of the channels to jump on the Lin train. Nicknaming him "Linsanity". The Hype is crazy I think it's worst then, dare I say it "Tebowing".

PRIME from thismustbetheplace on Vimeo.
The Primeburger is the third video in a unique documentary series of short films by Lost & Found Films, exploring the ideas or places that serve as a concept of ‘home’ for those living in New York City. In the latest episode, the dedicated employees of The Primeburger – a famous midtown Manhattan hamburger institution since the late 1930s, are interviewed effectively shedding light on the history, nostalgia, and experiences of their time at the iconic establishment. One of the notable features highlights a waiter who has been working as a waiter since 1952 – a total of 60 years. Dripping with charisma from the old-school hangout, Prime specifically explores the roles and inspirations of the loyal New Yorkers who work there, and how the iconic restaurant represents more than just a workplace, but, in many senses of the word, a home.
