We came across a nice new backpack from the Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring/Summer 2009 Collection. The “Arthur” backpack comes in khaki canvas with webbed cotton trim and two neon reflective strips on the upper. It has a good size, making sure all your essentials fit and the 278 USD pricetag could also be worse. The Marc by Marc Jacobs “Arthur” Backpack is now available here.

The super-limited sunglasses Super made in collaboration with PAM have gone missing. They were only intended to be a release of 100 of each colour, but Super have just informed us that the DHL shipment of all 200 pairs have been stolen. Is this a clever marketing ploy by the folks over at Super? Who knows. This is what they have to say:
“They were supposed to be in release today but last week unknown people broke into the DHL van while they where in delivery and stole all of the shades. The above picture is the only one available of unfinished samples.”
Stay tuned for more.

Rap mogul Damon Dash’s luxury timepiece and jewelry brand Tiret New York has turned its hand to automotive design with its latest creation, the Tiret Sport Coupe. Just unveiled at watch expo Baselworld in Switzerland, the luxurious 2-door SUV is based on the Range Rover Sport and features real diamond accents derived from Tiret’s opulent oversized, bejeweled timepieces by designer Daniel Lazar.
Available by special order at an undisclosed but undoubtedly astronomical price, the car is available with custom watch dial displays derived from Tiret’s diamond timepieces, as well as an elegant central clock. A wide variety of color combinations including two-tone schemes is available inside and out in addition to Nappa leather seating and fine wood trim. Exterior modifications include wider flared arches, LED lighting, 22-inch LSE alloy wheels and a full panoramic glass sunroof.

San Diego-based advertising agency, VitroRobertson and their client ASICS®, a performance athletic footwear and apparel company has officially been awarded the Guinness World Record for the Largest Lite-Brite ever constructed.
The record setting light-installation was inspired by the original Hasbro Lite-Brite toy that was hugely popular during the late 1960’s. The piece was constructed using 347,004 Lite-Brite colored pegs, creating a replica of the ASICS GEL-Lyte III™ trainer: albeit a 9 feet tall by 14 feet wide version that eclipsed the previous Lite-Brite world record of 5’ X 10’.
In 2009, the world’s largest Lite-Brite will be touring the country, traveling to concerts, parties and events like the Summer X-Games, The MTV Music Awards and Lollapalooza.
