Maybe this new line of horror hoodies by Ecko can save the company. Inspired by Friday the 13th, Saw and The Dark Knight…each hoody will retail from $70 on up. But it’s really two for one…a Halloween costume and a hoody…so buy more. Via: SlashFilm

Redman x Casio. The Casio G-Shock team has teamed up with Redman for this limited edition G-Shock watch in its all-red colorway. The watch is part of G-Shock’s “Youth Movement” line which includes other designs by Mr. Cartoon and skater Todd Jordan.
“G-Shock is tough and durable, but still raw to the core. I wanted a model that I could wear on my wrist with confidence… To me, the color red represents taking it to the maximum, just like when I hit the stage. I give my fans my all at live shows—stage dives, all the hits, and the best performance they’ve seen.” – Redman

Kanye West x Pastelle. Finally some new pics and info on Kanye’s long-awaited Pastelle Clothing line. Here are some look book shots of the new collection although it’s nothing new since Kanye has already worn most of these in public. But STILL no word yet on when the collection hits stores, distribution or pricing. And of course the website still has not changed.
Real question will be…by the time Pastelle actually is available will anyone care? It’s been years and years of delay and we all know the pricing won’t exactly be TJ Maxx level. More pics after the jump…Via: SwaggerDap
If it’s all real then at least it can somewhat appreciate in value vs. clothes and cars. Soulja Boy is just asking to be mugged again by taking pics like this though. Via: RealTalkNY
If you were given $75,000 what would you do with it?

Here he is showing it off…if he wore that around with no body guard only a matter of time before someone snatches it. Via: Upscale Hype
