The limited edition Trainer 1 Legacy pack that contained the original Air Trainer 1, as well as the new Trainer 1 model, both in the OG White/Grey/Chlorophyll colorway. The pack was released last week in limited quantities, and needless to say, they were sold out before most people even knew it existed. Taking the “Trainer Knows” concept one step further, Nike has just blessed a handfull of sneaker VIP’s with a deluxe edition of the pack in a special plexiglass box. The package consists of the same two shoes, but comes with some super-cool extras.

Try God is a name strongly associated to Neighborhood, Hysteric Glamour and Blackflag amongst others having created with great distinction. Shinsuke Takizawa has shed some light on a Key Cover for Black flag, a delicate sculptures created by using a zinc alloy metal.

First there was 1/1-scaled GUNDAM Statue in Odaiba, Tokyo – now Kobe’s Wakamatsu Park will have their very own giant robot = a 18 meters tall, 50 ton TETSUJIN 28-go! Don’t worry it is not Japan’s evil plan to take over the world with these giant robot, as the Tetsujin 28-go statue will be a permanent installation with no moving parts unlike the Gundam we saw earlier. The Kobe Tetsujin Project’s statue is intended as a symbol of the city’s revival after the 1995 Kobe Earthquake. It is being build in Nagata Ward, the city’s hardest hit neighborhood which has since been rebuilt and revitalized. The statue also celebrates the life of one of Kobe’s most well-known native sons, as Yokoyama not only created the Tetsujin 28 manga and anime, but also Giant Robo and Sally the Witch.
