etnies Plus Tribute
We don’t know a whole lot about this release, but the etnies Plus Tribute is looking like an April delivery to boutique accounts. The Plus line is usually a little questionable (it’s the line where they let the designers go nuts), but this new silhouette seems like a perfect balance of etnies styling and elevated thinking. Hit the jump for bigger photos, we’ll update with info when we get it.

Eric Haze x Stussy “Las Vegas” T-Shirts
Eric Haze hits us with another collaboration. Haze and Stussy teamed up and busted out the “LAS VEGAS” T. Haze needs to stop making all these collaborations, my paycheck can’t keep up with all the fresh gear he touches. From G-Shocks to T’s Eric Haze is definitely on point!

Participants include: Mister Cartoon, Estevan Oriol, Patrick Martinez (Artist/Graphic Designer), DJ EMZ, Ken Swift (Breakdancer), and Eric Haze. Both are a great watch, so check them out here.
