New from Nixon watches is a unique twist on the most popular style in their quiver, the Nixon Player rubberised “4 x 4″. This is a limited edition project that will span the next four months with a new colourway in the Player rubberised released each month. Featured here is the March release, this new look gives the Nixon Player a really interesting and refreshing update on the now veteran style. We look forwrad to seeing the subsiquent colours which are scheduled for release on the 15th of each month through till June.

Each store will be limited to only four of each colour, running with the 4 x 4 theme, and so these watches won’t be on the shelves for long! This first in the edition of the four colours is out today, and we’ll keep you updated on the next release as they come.

Here we are again, another late post, i know what you’re thinking, but, we’ve been busy… honest!! Actually we have, by the end of the month the XUMBRELLA price comparison engine should be completely refreshed offering you thousands more price comparisons on any action sports product you can think of!

Anyway, February saw the release of 6 new colourways from Nike SB. This months colourways include a Nike dunk low premium with colours by Nick Halkias, a Nike dunk mid premium with colours by LZ, Nike Zoom Air harbor in black/sunset, Nike blazer low premium in varsity red, Zoom tre in old royal and Zoom air Paul Rodriguez 2 in a really cool grey and zest colourway.

The dunk mid exibits some very current plaid details whilst the paul rodriguez 2 colourway is definitely a sign of things to come with bright over the top 80′s inspired colours. Available in all good skate shops now…

DVS shoes and Diamond Supply Co. have developed a long-standing relationship over the years and it continues to show in the product collaboration projects between the two brands. The DVS Original Intent designers teamed up with Diamond supply co. to produce a limited collection of Diamond V.V.S. shoes, jackets, tees, and hats.

This is a super tight collaberation from the two brands and in our opinion the best one so far. Featuring the DVS dayton shoe in a black red “Gucci” colourway. DVS have used some really nice premium leathers to give the skate shoe look a real top end feel. The apparel tie in is also well put together and compliments the shoes perfectly.

These items are dropping on Saturday, February 7th at the Diamond Store on Fairfax in Los Angeles. The collection will be available worldwide next week.

The holiday season is fast approaching, only 9 shopping weeks till Christmas, time to start shopping for trees and dusting off your fairy lights! While on the subject DVS have something special on offer for this festive season in the way of a limited edition DVS HUF collaberation with New York label, Mighty Healthy. Keith and Ray Mate co-founder of Mighty Healthy go way back and have been talking of doing this project for a while, and well, good job boys! Two styles, the Huf 5 runner and the Huf 5 Mid both featuring Mighty Healthy branding and in really interesting colourways. Out soo at all good skate shops!
