Awesome Style

Made out of old inner tubes and bike tires, Jiro Belts are completely one-of-a-kind and made in Italy; don’t see anything you like? They’ll make one with your choice of colors and buckle.

The latest on our list of over-the-top costumes literally towers over us: this animatronic Gomora suit stands 10 ft. tall and 20 ft. long, moves its head and arms, shrieks, and spits vapor.

We loved the Air Flytops, but we’re drooling over these Nike Air Flytop Premiums; they sport black and white colorways, a mix of smooth and perfed leather panels, and a leather lining.

This Map Marker Death t-shirt pointedly shows the hazards of overly augmenting reality; up next: street view dude’s mangled body found flying across random street intersections.

$50 won’t buy you top of the line sound quality, but Nixon’s Trooper Headphones are generous with features: you’ll get 40 mm drivers, a folding hinge, removable cord, and padded headband.

Nike’s K2 Expedition is a technical mountaineer’s jacket; it’s subject to 25 wash cycles to establish waterproofing, is fully seam sealed, and includes a brushed mesh lining with music pocket.

Made with $2,000, two 42″ LCD TVs, and crapload of fingerprints, John and Reko’s iPhone Costumes actually work–they’ve modified their iPhone 3GS to allow live dual image output.

Wearing a bullseye on your chest may not be very smart, but we still like the tongue-in-cheek (and fingers-in-ear) appeal of this Shooting Target tee; it’s based off this poster.

Getting stranded on Earth apparently runs in the family: long before E.T. found himself stuck with Elliot, E.T. Senior finds himself in a similar predicament with this Home, Jeeves tee.

Part watch, part cuckoo clock, Gerald Genta’s Arena Metasonic Watch chimes either the exact time or regular intervals using immensely complex yet purely mechanical means.

Skagen’s Cinquecento Grigio is the Macbook Air of watches, measuring just 9mm thin; it also features a minimalist 40mm titanium case with carbon fiber dial and chain mail bracelet.

Time flies in the face of tradition with the TX 830 Linear Duo Chronograph, which sports a vertical line for measuring minutes; too much to handle? It still features an old-school circular face.

Handmade out of Scottish leather, the Indiana Adventure Duffel targets treasure and pleasure hunters alike; it features an open-up top and an enclosed bottom section for shoes.

Made by two car designers, Industrial North’s watches are engineer-friendly; laser cut faces reveal Fibonacci and Geodesic patterns, while cases are CNC machined and spark eroded.

Made with wool felt, Hard Graft’s Sporting Mousemat isn’t just a rodent rumpus room; it also folds up and snaps together into a pouch with enough space for for a mouse and power adapter.

Let their be (fiber optic) light: their names are lost to history (blame the great robot revolt of 2089), but this Connected tee depicts the holy trinity of W3C who first brought forth the Interwebs.
