QUICKSILVER IS MAKING MOVES WITH THE STANDARD HOTELS
by CHRIS GROSSO on Jul.30, 2009, under COLLABS, Chris Grosso, SPORTS, THINGS YOU WISH YOU HAD

Quicksilver is making big moves to gain street cred, first they released a groundbreaking online skate vid, now they are targeting hipsters and tourist county wide.
“Both mens and womens swimwear will be available starting August 8th within their hotel locations and online. The ultra lightweight designs, taking cues from 70s-80s styles, will be available within a poolside vending machine, with each boardshort coming in its own waterproof travel bag.
Each design features a “Quik City Guide” on the inside waistband, with addresses of local places of interest. The Downtown L.A. trunk features alternative art spaces in that city, the Hollywood trunk highlights independent music venues, the New York trunk lists other swimming pools to visit there and Miami features hip restaurants and cafes. The inside label on each reads “The Standard Boardshorts by Quiksilver.” In addition to the swimsuits, the vending machines will offer zines and $10 works of art from local artists.

These are fly, The Hybrid AC ND from Nike combines a Blazer sole with an interlaced suede upper deck shoe. In other words they combined the vans chukka, half cabs and a tin dusting of euro with the extra leather pieces on the back. Who would have thought Nike would ever have to crush vans, smells like converse all over again.
