After reporting on this season’s sunglasses collection between Ray-Ban and Brooks Brothers, we can now bring you news of the latest collaboration for the American men’s outfitters, a range of shirts and blazers created alongside one of Japan’s premier designers, COMME des GARCONS’ Junya Watanabe. Created for the eYe COMME des GARCONS JUNYA WATANABE MAN line, Watanabe has taken two Brooks Brothers staples, the Oxford shirt and Brooks Blazer and has given them his own unique twist. The shirts have had one of the ever-present Junya Watanabe check designs applied to the underside of the arms while hits of chambray have been used across the shoulders and for the unique-styled front patch. The breast pocket, also created from chambray has been placed much lower and appears in a contrasting color. All these extra materials have been applied using a special triple-stitch technique. As for the blazers, check and solid colorways have been produced, sticking to the more traditional Brooks Brothers silhouette with gold buttons applied to give them that little something extra. The Japanese retail price for the shirts has been announced as ¥51,450 JPY (approximately $650 USD) with the blazers weighing in at ¥89,250 (approximately $1,130 USD) for the check version and ¥90,300 JPY (approximately $1,144 USD) for the solid colorway.

Micah Lidberg x Lacoste L!VE Rene Lacoste


Kansas City’s Micah Lidberg teams up with Lacoste L!VE to offer a wild interpretation of the classic Rene Lacoste. Applying his love for color and patterns, Lidberg makes good use of a contrast of bold colors from black to purple and yellow that is all tied together via liquorice red laces. Adorning the mid-section is a juxtapose of animal-prints that adds to the appropriately high contrast effect. The low-cut sneakers are part of the Lidberg X Lacoste collection that also includes men and women’s T-shirts, polos, tanks and more, which becomes available this July. An interview can be seen over at Sneaker Freaker.

Windows Phone 8 Operating System Preview


After making recent buzz regarding Surface, Microsoft rolls out a preview of its plans for the mobile future. Windows Phone 8 presents the most advanced mobile operating system to date. The architecture will obviously support the current crop of dual-core processors but will also make way for quad-core and up to 64-core processors. In essence, it uses the same kernel, file system, media foundation, device drivers, and a similar security model as its bigger brother Windows 8 to allow device encryption, removable storage with microSD cards, and other improvements that IT pros and businesses will appreciate. Apart from the performance boost, advanced integration means that developers will be able to leverage desktop and phone apps. Windows Phone 8 promises in a nutshell the foundation for bigger, sharper screens, more flexible storage, wireless sharing, a new Internet Explorer 10, better online security features, improved Nokia maps and directions, and a new digital “Wallet” that when paired with a secure SIM can pay for things with a tap of the phone. It will also enable video calling and anchor social networks like Facebook, Flickr and LinkedIn to your personalized Start screen so that you can see our friends’ instant status updates, easily stream images and share across multiple social networks. It all sounds very promising, except that anyone who actually cared enough to buy a Windows Phone in the last two years won’t be able to upgrade their phones to the new version.
