The Agenda Tradeshow went down last week in San Diego, and Incase was there showing off some of its new wares including the Steven Harrington products from the Curated by Arkitip series. Look for this laptop sleeve and iPhone case to drop Feb. 3rd at Incase retailers globally.

Yo, why won’t you guys let Kanye be great? I mean, check out the Air Loueezy’s! How awesome are those? Oh wait, maybe here’s why. Ti$a is gonna mess your whole shit up, mang. [SoleBLVD]

Oh wow, these speakers are awesome (do not click if you can’t do NSFWs. It’s not porno, but its a female mannequin with speakers for boobs). [Gizmodo]

Ato = no one cares anymore. You guys should have put up an Online store when you had the chance. [High Snobiety]

Fred 500XL Earbud Speakers Are Larger Than Life

Ever since we saw Honey, I Shrunk The Kids, we’ve dreamed about getting zapped by Rick Moranis’s shrinking ray. Aside from the threat of being eaten by someone (the digestive system is not a fun place to spend a Saturday night), it seems like it would actually be a lot of fun living life like an ant. Unfortunately, the do-nothing scientists of the real world haven’t invented the technology yet, so we’ve settled for surrounding ourselves with comically oversized props. Our first purchase: this pair of Fred 500XL speakers that resemble massive versions of the popular white iPod earbuds. They are, in fact, (you guessed it) 500 times the size of the originals. For power, it runs on batteries, but it can also be hooked up to your computer’s USB or into the wall. They’re available for $49.99 at ThinkGeek. See some more pictures after the jump.
