Supreme's Tremaine Emory Era Is Upon Us
"Fuccbois can now ride at dawn on their Honda motorcycles. Branded watercolors — mistaken for contraception by Highsnobiety commenters — encourage hype boys to embrace their inner artiste, the Supreme way.Momoko dolls are drippier than your average Supreme head."
MSCHF's Got Rihanna Selling Ketchup as Makeup
"Let me explain: Ketchup or Makeup, MSCHF's 83rd drop, is essentially a $25 box containing six packets filled with either ketchup or Fenty Beauty lip gloss. The only way to discern which is french fry sauce and which is tomato-red lacquer is to rip open the packet and give it a taste (or smell, unless the lip gloss is ketchup-scented)."
Patta's Latest Nike AM1 Is Pure Platinum
"Now though, following the unveiling and subsequent release of its first “The Next Wave” installment, Patta and Nike return with a clean “Pure Platinum” iteration, a colorway which is basically totally off limits to me thanks to my inability to keep anything white, well, white."
Unsent Studio Waters its Crocs so You Don't Have To
"Self-described as a "footwear investigation," Unsent Studio has been making waves across social media recently thanks to its plant-inspired mules, which have grabbed Crocs at the horns and demonstrated the potential of these cozy foam footwear."

A$AP Rocky Just Recreated an Outfit He Wore on His Fifth Birthday
"Most of us would probably prefer to never revisit the stuff we wore as kids. I'm perfectly happy to leave my cargo shorts and Etnies in the past, thanks! And, yet, here's A$AP Rocky wearing almost exactly the same thing that he wore as a five-year-old and looking damn cool doing it."
