Style: EASTPAK by KRISVANASSCHE Collection

http://theblueprintmagazine.com/images_frt5/005_eastpak1.png

Balancing a nostalgic historical sense with radical modernism is KRISVANASSCHE‘s forte, and it’s a skill the designer brings to his latest work with EASTPAK. With multipurpose use in mind, the Spring/Summer 2013 EASTPAK by KRISVANASSCHE collection consists of two backpacks, an attaché case, bowling bag, messenger, carry case and pouch that can be transformed in multiple ways. And, in keeping with KRISVANASSCHE’s unique design sensibilities, the bags bridge the gap between city and sportswear, with fabrics ranging from structured twill 100% nylon to soft grey marl jersey. Zip string and elastic details throughout conjure up images of climbing ropes, adding a touch of the outdoors, while black leather binding and rubber reinforcements infuse the collection with hard-wearing, yet sophisticated elements.

Sneakers: Liberty & Nike Air Force 1

http://theblueprintmagazine.com/images_frt5/002_nike_liberty1.png

Like the Nike Air Force 1, Liberty of London‘s patterns are both historic and contemporary, motifs that have stood the test of time and trends. The Liberty x Nike Sportswear Air Force 1 Downtown marries the former’s bold, multicolored prints with the latter’s classic lines, and is part of an ongoing collaboration that shows no signs of slowing. Using the Air Force 1 Downtown’s slimmed-down, casual-ready silhouette as a canvas, Liberty reworked its uppers with a trio of vibrant patterns, with each option grounded by semi-translucent rubber soles. The Liberty x Nike Sportswear Air Force 1 Downtown will be available for purchase starting April 13th via select retailers including atmos. [See More]

http://www.theblueprintmagazine.com/images_frt4/932_cleatskins.jpg

Anyone who's ever played football, baseball, soccer, golf, rugby, or any other sport where your shoes have spikes knows the annoyance of the clickety-clack sound your cleats make when you leave the field. Cleatskins ($20-$25) aim to eliminate that. These ingenious add-ons are made from a flexible compression-molded rubber and are designed to slip over your existing cleats, providing safety for you and protection for carpets, floors, and nearby eardrums.
