Ballin’ vs. Budget: Getting The Grown Man Summer Look

frederickm — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 21:39:30 +0000

Look, we like graphic T’s, Dunks and raw denim as much as the next dude, but there are times when we have to switch it up and button it down. Especially during the summer, when trips to the Hamptons have us exchanging our beer for something clear with a lime in it. But we know what you’re thinking: all that sophisticated, “grown man” shit is out of my price range, right? Nah, man. While you can drop a stack or two trying to get your look right, you can also achieve it cheaply by shopping at the right places. And, like always, Complex knows exactly what those places are. Keep reading to see how you can mature your summer look whether you’re ballin’ or just tying to fake it ’til you make it.

Hawaii met San Diego last summer when streetwear kings In4mation linked up with hat masters Brixton for a dope fedora collabo. First available only in Honolulu, the limited-edition Penny Castor Fedora is now available online for those daring enough to venture beyond fitteds. Today’s Buy It Now is made of natural straw with an antique nickel pin and printed satin lining. For detail pics and Buy It Now info, see below…

Either Etnies can't get enough of In4mation, or the Hawaiian-squad just banged out a ton of new colorways in one shot. The latest double-label Sal 23 shoe goes back to black/white this month for all you subtle old-schoolers. Release info is sketchy for now, but check for these to pop up first at In4mants and then to hit the Etnies over the next month or so.

MAGIC Tradeshow Treats: Part 1

mollys — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 14:00:23 +0000

You got grapes?? In4mation has a purple G-Shock in the works.

The great clusterfuck that is the Magic Tradeshow has officially begun. And you know what that means…lots of teaser pics of upcoming gear you know you want. Check out new collaborations with In4mation, along with upcoming threads by Rogue Status, Quiksilver, and Lemar and Dauley, below.

In4mation continues to be heavy on the collabo tip. Here is an in-the-flesh pic of their upcoming denim Half Cab Vans.

In4mation also re-upped with Sal 23 Etnies, this time in cool-grey suede.

Amongst Friends let us preview their country club-friendly polo. They’re taking prep to the next level with Dri-fit golf shirts and logo-heavy khakis coming down the pike.

Here’s another piece that will take you to the golf course without hassle. Rogue Status uses their iconic gunshow print on the lining of seersucker shorts.

Quiksilver is set to release a super-high (Supra-esque?) high-top.

Check back all week for more sneak peeks from Magic…

UPDATE: Lemar and Dauley didn’t get down with Kangol. They just jacked the legendary brand’s swagger.

Street Detail: Hawaii Fresh

treats — Tue, 27 May 2008 17:46:10 +0000

It would be a waste to go overboard with style in Hawaii. In the land of sun, surf, and grass skirts, it’s best you keep it simple with a T-shirt and jeans (or shorts) rather than indulge some over-the-top opulence. Stuntin’ is a habit, but you don’t have to be stupid about it. As an employee of the Hawaiian streetwear store In4mation, this week’s street detail subject puts us up on his Hawaiian style. Pay attention'you might learn something after the jump.
