Most may already know, that just recently Bape EU closed with a massive sale on all items in stock. Personally I haven't a clue why, but they mustn't have been doing as well as they do in the Asian market, as it probably suits their culture a little more, possibly as many in the UK will sooner part with their money on a Supreme piece than Bape. Who knows?

Laces Out! came back bigger and better for the second installment, occupying the two main rooms of Liverpool's best venue.

As everyone reading this knows, accessorising and showing off your kicks is just as important as owning the best pairs. That is exactly what Kick'sessories is all about, bringing you sweet products like the SneakerBox shown above.

Alpinestars are mostly known for their protective Biking gear, especially as they are the #1 Motorsports apparel brand in the world, but with the recent Biker trends taking the runways by storm at fashion events around the globe, and with Fashion guru Kanye West being seen in Biker jackets and jeans, all of which washed out, scuffed and ripped, it seems it is the in thing at the minute.

This may come as a shock to most, but this isn't the first sock collaboration. With the Wu-Tang Clan Huf Plantlife socks basically being on everyones feets for at least one day, and the Cheech and Chong Plantlifes releasing, it shouldn't be suprising to most.

Does anybody who is still wearing sneakers, remember the days of 'classics' sitting on the sales racks, which now go on eBay for a pretty penny?

At the forefront of alternative Hip Hop during the 1990s, it really does make sense that Mo' Wax Please and Bape have come to collaborate on a small collection with heavy connections into streetwear and graffiti, with big names such as Futura 2000, and Ben Drury.

Anything involving Stüssy is always good in my books, and if it's in partnership with one of Britain's outerwear designers; Baracuta.

Launched only this year (2014) Hero's Heroine are already making a big splash with their unique and exciting sports-wear urban fusions. Today we have their Spring Summer 2015 lookbook.

Gitman are huge names in American menswear, and it's really good to see END. getting involved with them for a special collaboration collection.

As far as support goes for independent Street and Skate wear retailers go, Lost Art is up there with the best, with such a loyal support, great staff and cleaver gimmicks on tees. I mean what more can you ask for from your local Skate store.

It's always a nice day when ALIFE release a new collection, that is exactly what's happened this week, with the release of their 2014 Holiday Collection.

We're big fans of the Soutien Collar Coat styling here at Men's Needs and even bigger fans of Stüssy. Then when you add GORE-TEX to the mix, you're in for an absolute winner.

Thinking back two or three years ago, Sneaker events were almost unheard of, especially in the UK. With the growth of the Sneaker Community in the past two years, events such as Laces Out!, 6ACRE and Crepe City have burst on to the scene, giving collectors and enthusiasts a place to meet up, buy, sell, trade and have a good time with like minded people.

I always get very excited when a Palace collaboration comes round, as generally, they're all sick. Guess what, they haven't disappointed (yet again). This time the skateboard brand has teamed up with adidas Originals to make a package based on some of your favourite adidas pieces with a special twist from Palace.

It's always nice to see a new Carhartt collection, especially when it involves a HEAVY camo print. Today we've got just that, a huge new collection featuring an amazing but slightly different iteration of their standard camo packs.

As most of us already know 6ACRE III, is well underway planning wise, from everything from food to sellers. And if you've been to 6ACRE previously, you already know what your in for, for those that haven't the following Q&A may give you a bit of an insight to what you can expect from Tom and Dean.

It's not very often we get to post anything Alexander McQueen, but we couldn't resist bringing you this dope bomber jacket.
