Judging by the last week it definitely seems like spring is trying it’s hardest to power through so what else could be more topically than a post about Volcom’s new spring swim wear that should be hitting shops any day. This Spring season see’s the introduction of the distinctive Volcom “Shred It” group in their swimwear collection.

This collection consists of a one piece and a bikini style, for which the inspiration came from what is happening in denim-shredded, ripped and torn apart denim trend was translated to create this group. The fashion on the streets was transformed to style on the beach… Biker jackets are “in” and with that comes ripped tee’s and subsequently ripped jeans?? what just a minute is this the early 90’s… no, well thought i’d check, so odd, i had really bad deja vu there for a second!!

anyway, jokes aside we really like this concept and not seen much like it about yet. we also like the way the ripped effect on the one piece forms the Volcom stone logo. Look out for this one at all Volcom swimwear stockists.

Nike 6.0 team rider Coco Ho has just been crowned ASP rookie of the year, well done Coco! check out the below video for more on Coco Ho and Nike 6.0.

Whilst these headphones are new on the market they have a refreshing feel of nostalogia about them. With the first Skullcandy x Santa Cruz collaboration featuring the ever popular “screeming hand” Santa Cruz graphic, this second offering seems to round things off nicely.

DC shoes Josh Kalis white / grey leather

It doesn’t feel like a decade ago that Josh Kalis had his first pro shoe on DC shoes, but i i just realised that it pretty much is! time flies that’s for sure and DC as a once humble skate shoe brand have come along way. Producing quality skate shoes just wasn’t enough and so with the help of a mega ramp, a large wall, excellent snowboard and surf teams and the MTN LAB, they are now a house hold name.

Kalis is one of my all time favourite skateboards and still in my opion holds the title for most stylish tre flip, and that is one hell of a claim. Kalis has been with DC shoes a long time and this his 7th shoe on the brand is well deserved. The DC Kalis is featured here in white grey leather this shoe comes in around £60.00 and has all the tech features you’d expect from a DC shoe:

• Super suede, a superior version of suede that is more durable whilest maintaining grip and feel.
• Heavy duty suede upper
• soft full grain leather and full grain nubuck upper
• eyelets on medial side
• TPU eyelets
• foam padded tongue
• performance TPR wrap cupsole
• innovative DGT outsole for enhanced board control and durability
