New Koston I in-store at Marketplace boasting dat that maroon colourway.
It’s been a long time since this color has been in stores.. 17 years actually. For those of you that don’t remember, the Jordan X came out after His Airness’ [first] retirement. Featuring a tumbled and smooth leather upper in the iconic black / white / red colorway, the Jordan X Chicago is available this Saturday at Momentum 8th. Get ‘em while they last.

Created by Lifetime and produced by Salazar, the story takes place a thousand (or so) miles from home, in Iceland, land of the never-ending night sky. A couple searches for warmth and light on an endless journey through a city and it’s countryside.
To commemorate 10 years of, “roaming the earth in search of new muses and methods creativity,” Lifetime took to Iceland to film this piece which spotlights two lost lovers kitted up in their the F/W line.
These multi-coloured Oakley Frogskins are available at Momentum 8th Street & Momentum Marketplace (on Attridge Drive). Someone asked me if the frames were mixed and matched with different faces (non-uniform colourways) and just so we’re clear: they are not. What you see is what you get.
Available at both Momentum’s
Vans is that classic core brand that all skaters respect. They have managed to take heritage models and infuse them with modern technology to present to skaters both new and old. This week we have the Half Cab Pro displayed. You can expect good durability, the classic waffle grip, ankle protection and a clean look.
The mighty Half Cab steps fittingly into Vans’ new pro line of performance-optimized heritage kicks. These legends take on ultra shock absorbent cushioning, increased stability and durability, and a new Supertuff Suede materialization in the uppers. They’re built for the hardest riders out there. – Vans

This week we have Koston’s Nike SB model as our weekly feature. It has minimal seams on its TPU reinforced suede upper to create board feel while maintaining durability. The cup sole construction and use of lo ride construction gives the shoe a vulc-like feel. Rather than the Zoom Air bag, this sneaker uses Lunarlon technology. I own a pair myself and enjoy them a lot. It is one of the most comfortable skate shoes I have ever owned, feeling similar to a runner. In the case of the Koston, less is more.

The new Nike Kaiju boots are techy and sleeker in comparison to its previous design.
They offer crazy comfort, thanks to “zoom air cushioning” for more impact protection, and an ease of use that rivals the industry’s top products. You’ve got to lace them up, but it’s a speedy and dependable lace up. They walk around like shoes. The liners are comfortable, and the boot as a whole has an incredibly slim profile. The Kaiju has two little features though that make it a stand out. It has a great flex, but when it does there is no folding or crumpling of your boot. Nike cut out a slit in the ankle, tied it together with some crazy technology called “flywire” that can’t be broken by lowly humans, and ended up making a boot with great flex and comfort. The Kaiju looks like a giant running shoe in a way, and is definitely more appealing than the previous effort. Overall it’s slick, and works well. If you’re too cool for Nike, you won’t like these boots, but otherwise, they get our thumbs up.

Dylan Rieder became immediately recognized in the skating world due to his smooth style, unique persona and ability to skate any type of spot, with his breakout part coming in Transworld’s “A Time to Shine.” With a sponsors list containing Alien Workshop, Gravis, Spitfire, Thunder, Analog, MOB, Jack’s Garage, Swiss and Roughneck Hardware, it’s evident that Rieder is as in-demand as any skater out there. Recently, Hypebeast had an opportunity to bounce some questions off the pro, with topics ranging from his involvement with Gravis to his evolution with the sport he’s been a part of for so long.
To describe my personal style… it’s pretty black and white, if you know what I mean…
My approach to designing shoes and clothing… well, first you have to start with tying your shoelaces. Double loops then cris crossing you know? I mean, it starts with an idea, then that goes into motion, then into a mold, then into a sample, and after that you’ll have a tangible product. Then go from there.
To describe being fashionable… ha! Fuck, you’re asking the wrong person. What does fashionable even mean. I’d love to see that description in the dictionary.
Since I first started with Gravis… I feel the brand has made its imprint on the skateboarding world, which I don’t think it ever had before. These days, it’s hard for a company outside of skateboarding to make their way into being accepted into the skateboarding world. And now, Gravis has grown into this skate shoe company that people enjoy and want to be a part of.
Things I took away from growing up in Westminster/HB… I took myself away and moved to Los Angeles. That was a start. I love Westminster, that’s my home. I miss the pool halls and being five minutes away from the beach.
Good music… is a song that makes you relate to a feeling or familiarity. A band that distracts you while you’re sitting in a tour van for 10 hours. A lyric that you can listen to over and over and not get sick of it. Anything but drum and bass!
My five favorite meals… are in no particular order: sushi, Mexican, pho, spaghetti & meatballs and Jans.
From traveling and seeing all these different places… I feel really fortunate to be able to see the places I’ve been and encountered. Every destination is a new experience, and most of the time I’m traveling with my good friends, so being in foreign places with them running a muck and skating is quite a lovely time. Sometimes it’s tiring, after being on the road for two or more weeks you can get tour fever, but that’s when delirium kicks in and things get interesting.
Skateboarding is something… that’s still fun and that I enjoy. It’s my life, you know. There’s a bit more work ethic to it now, which can take away from the origin of why I started skateboarding in the first place a little bit, but then again I wouldn’t have what I have now if it wasn’t more of a job than a hobby… I can’t complain.
Being such a traveler, home is home… thanks to my bed, all the local watering holes, some Aussie gypsying on the couch, being able to lock yourself in the comfort of your house for a day with no communication, grass on the lawn, listening to records, Red O margis. The usual…

To kick off the New Years, we plan on having a featured shoe weekly from one of our stores. This week, we have the Hufnagel Pro in the black/grey colour way. Its design looks simplistic but has impressive little features worth mentioning. The upper is a “hairy” suede, providing a different texture than we are used to seeing/feeling. An almost unnoticed circle Huf logo is on the heel and its tread is a pattern of “H”. A great shoe for casual wear or skateboarding (yes, I said skateboarding… stay tuned for the new indoor skateboard facility-hyped!)
