Like most Puma Model 917′s the Lo Sacko is inspired by the Porsche 917 driven by Steven McQueen in the movie “Le Mans.” New York based painter, Kehindle rehashes his African theme in the print for the Lo Sacko giving it a very distinct look. I posted these because I thought they caught my eye, but I don’t quite know if I am sold on them. I want to see some more opinions on this sneaker – what are your thoughts?

iPad Now Used in Japanese Magic Tricks
This is pretty cool, but I spotted his bird trick instantaneously. Slow it down from 0:59 – 1:01 and you can spot the trick too. Unfortunately, that’s the only one I caught and this video is still amazing.
Spotted this over at Gizmodo.

Nike Sportswear Perforated Leather Pack
Nike Sportswear is showcasing the soon-to-be-released Perforated Leather Pack. The pack includes the Dunk Hi AC, Air Toki, and Air Force 1 Low. All three sneakers feature white uppers with white Nike swooshes, while the Dunk Hi AC and Air Toki are accented with gold trim on the midsole. All three of these kicks are fresh, but I would probably lean more towards the Air Toki – I have owned one too many pairs of low, white Air Force 1′s.

Nike Air Force 1 “Jones Beach” Re-release
The Nike Air Force 1 “Jones Beach” is releasing this week following its sellout performance during the first release. They will be releasing in their original design on June 4th at Extra Butter and other Nike retailers.
PosiMotion Helix iPhone / iPod Gaming Grip
The Helix gaming grip has gone live at a Best Buy near you. As a gamer, I can honestly say I never see myself using this contraption. Maybe it was the black dude with chains that turned me to the whole thing? I can’t exactly pinpoint it, but check out the video (below) and if you feel like dropping $20 on this thing, venture to your nearest Best Buy.
Makr Carry Goods Farm Rucksack
Makr Carry Goods have released a clean-looking rucksack. The bag features leather accents with a predominately beige canvas. It is available in three colors at $150 a piece. The simple designs, such as this one, are the ones that seem to interest me the most.

V-MODA Crossfade LP Headset
I would love to get my mitts on V-MODA’s latest creation, the Crossfade LP Headset. Proclaimed, “world’s most fashion-forward headphone,” they certainly deliver from a visual design aesthetic. The Crossfade was in development for roughly four years, featuring very nice materials and lightweight metals. The headset was built in collaboration with musicians, DJ’s and producers and is meant to be an all-purpose headset.
The headset sports 50mm Dual-diaphragm High-Definition Drivers capable of producing deep bass with crisp mid-range sounds. The headphones use memory foam cushioning to help with noise reduction and comfort. The downside is that these are on the pricier side at $249.99, but they come with a few extra goodies.
