generic surplus for ace hotel mesh shoes spring 2010 selectism 0 Generic Surplus for Ace Hotel Mesh Shoes in Grey and Navy

Our friends at Generic Surplus rework their white mesh shoe for Ace Hotel by dipping them into some new colors. Grey and Navy versions of their classic are now available through the Generic Surplus online shop. Here’s how Ace puts it, “This spring, we’re re-introducing these very coveted kicks in new colorways, and with all the same great elements as the original. The classic low-top laced plimsoll silhouette has been re-imagined with a mesh upper made of quick-drying canvas that keeps your feet cool and dry. The vulcanized non-slip sole is perfect for poolside cocktail mingling on a Sunday afternoon.” On another note, is that a Rega turntable?

Fashionisto talks up the Cav-000 Spring 2010 collection. “The latest collection from Cav-000 is not necessarily provocative, but there is an element about its laid-back style that exudes a refined sense of carelessness. From semi-fitted monochromatic looks that revel in casualness to the modern suit that exhibits great youthfulness, Cav-000 achieves the perfect balance of style, practicality and relevance.”

Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M White Dial Diver Watch

omega seamaster ploprof white dial diver watch selectism 0 Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M White Dial Diver Watch

I tend to shy away from the white bands but this Seamaster Ploprof from Omega has me thinking about a timepiece binge.

“This year OMEGA presents its white version of the Ploprof. It has all of the features professional divers have come to expect from OMEGA: a white bi-directional locking bezel with chrome-coated Arabic numerals, an automatic helium escape valve and water resistance to 1200 metres (4000 feet, 120 bar). The watch, with its timeless white bezel and dial, is presented with either a white rubber strap or a brushed mesh ‘Sharkproof’ bracelet… The Ploprof’s case cannot be mistaken for that of any other watch: the screwed-in crown is located at 9 o’clock under a protective buffer. Its unique positioning allows freer wrist movement and prevents any inadvertent manipulation.”

Levi’s 501XX Special Edition Spur Bites and Barnyard Jeans

levis special edition 501xx barnyard spurbites selectism 0 Levi’s 501XX Special Edition Spur Bites and Barnyard Jeans

We’ve got some information on two special pairs of Levi’s 501XX coming in July. They’ll pull from  two vintage finds from the Levi’s archive – the “Spur Bites” and the “Barnyard” (both purchased by the Levi’s archive brand back in 1997 and 1998 respectively) . A good deal of facts are known on both pairs. First and foremost they were both assembled at the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company in Manchester, New Hampshire from 9oz denim sometime between 1890-and 1901. They’re names come from clues on the denim themselves.

So what can we expect? We’re assuming some patchwork vintage look as present on the original pairs. We’re also told Denimtech in Los Angeles will be working on these for Levi’s. We hope to have some photos soon.
