DQM 5th year Anniversary make over






With the economy in shambles and street wear hitting it’s pinnacle, few shops have been able to stay afloat not to mention sustain a quality fan base. Daves Quality Meat has broken that barrier becoming a mainstay in the New York City culture since their opening five years ago. Celebrating a very successful half decade of memories, DQM has already dropped a sneaker in celebration this year as well as threw a hell of an anniversary party so it was only fitting to give their shop a new look. Take a look at DQM’s make over after the jump.

Nike SB Lance Mountain Clollection



The collaboration Nike Blazer between legendary figures Lance Mountain and Craig Stecyk was only a preview of things to come as we now see a full fledged collection from the ageless skate pro, Lance Mountain. Joining the Nike SB team, Mountain now takes his own spin on the SB Blazer model with a clean black and red silhouette. Combing different leather, the upper takes a tonal approach alongside quilted red lining and a crisp white midsole. Accompanying the kicks, is a small collection of gear incorporating Lance’s artwork. The lineup consists of a matching M-65 style denim jacket, t-shirt and fitted cap. This release can definitely be classified as a return to Nike SB’s original roots.
