Most of us who wake up each morning, check their phones, check Instagram and Twitter like its the news, will have seen the BAIT Splash City Gel Lyte V's. 

Bait are continuing to slowly but surely take over the sneaker scene over in the states and this is now filterting through over the sea to England. With this Gel Lyte V celebrating the opening of the shop in San Fransisco it's only going to get the store more hype.

Collaborations have been coming thick and fast. And when they're done this well, on such a classic EQT model, you cant help but to stare. Absolute show stoppers from the Bait team out in USA with the colour scheme paying homage to the Statue of Liberty, and without any thought, representing the chilling temperatures out in the concrete jungle this time of year.
In my opinion, the ASICS releases throughout the year have been a little dry in terms of what they usually produce. But what they usually produce is outstanding, so 2014 was still a huge year for them, cementing their status as one of the front runners of the sneaker scene.

"Celebrating 100 Years of Running History" is how Brooks are describing this collaboration with state side heavy hitters BAIT. With the resurgence of one of the US most beloved running brands, Brooks brought back the 80s classic Chariot last year and more notably two big collaborations this year, giving the brand the exposure it needed in this competitive sneaker scene.


The Bait Basics Model series has been a huge hit with both the Vanquish and Guardian being instant hits as soon as the release. Now we've got the 3rd in the series; the Nippon Blues.

So today we have the nominations for one of our Men's Needs' Kicks of 2013 awards, and this is one of the most fiercely contested categories with an unbelievable amount of possible nominations, but we had the arduous task of trying to whittle it down to just 9. But never-the-less here are nominations for the Best Collaboration of 2013.

BAIT are well regarded as being one of the best companies to produce collaborations with the likes of Saucony and Reebok being featured along the way. But today they've released a teaser image showing that they have now teamed up with ASICS for this edition of the Gel Saga, which they're calling the 'Phantom Lagoon'.
