G-Shock and In4mation team up for a fourth installment collaboration watch. After three highly sought after collectibles, G-Shock and the Hawaiian-based boardsport brand have fused the latest G-Shock toughness and technology with the In4mation alternative design concept in the GLX6900X-2.

Irreverently clad in sleek gray with yellow and red accents, the GLX6900X-2 remains rooted in In4mation’s surf heritage. Harmonizing with the surfer lifestyle, the G-Shock In4mation chronograph features 200M water resistance, low temperature resistance, tide graph and moon data graph for the ultimate in tracking high and low tides. Even the EL Backlight reflects In4mation’s legacy with a red shaka sign, the definitive symbol of aloha and Hawaiian culture.

“In4mation is proud to introduce its Spring/Summer 2010 set of watches with new G-Shock and Baby-G models,” said Creative Director, Rhandy Tambio. “In4mation has taken a new approach with its fourth design and focused on a look for everyday use with a subtle gray styling and contrasting hints throughout both watches. In4mation continues to establish its attention to detail and elevate its approach to design with Casio’s popular brands.”

“Casio G-Shock is thrilled to collaborate with In4mation. The previous collaboration models have created quite a buzz and been in such high demand. We look forward to continued success,” said Shigenori Itoh, Vice President of Casio’s Timepiece Division. “Combining In4mation’s distinct style with the latest edition to the G-Shock Family, the GLX6900-2, is easily a must have for design conscious consumers.”

This sleek limited edition digital watch features the In4mation logo on the band and custom engraved on the case back. Complete with the high gloss finish, the G-Shock x In4mation watch also features Full Auto EL Backlight with afterglow, Flash Alert, Flashes with buzzer, 48-City World Time, 4 Multi-Function Alarms and 1 Snooze, Countdown Timer, 1/100th Sec Stopwatch and 12/24Hr. Formats.  Available for $110 at Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, Macys, Fashion boutiques and www.gshock.com.

Casio unveils the new Go Green Project, an environmentally friendly series of G-Shock watches commemorating Earth Day’s 40th Anniversary. The series is compromised of three new G-Shock styles G5600GR-7, G6900GR-3 and G2300GR-3 built with 100% recycled paper packaging, advanced solar technology and Earth Day inspired color ways.

G5600GR-7
Evocative of the very first G-Shock (DW5000C), the G5600GR-7 borrows its handsome square face. Truly building on a classic, the Go Green Project 5600 crisp white body is accented in forest green with a patent finish while maintaining the uncompromised G-Shock features of Shock Resistance, 200M Water Resistance and Full Auto EL green tinted Backlight.

G6900GR-3
Encased in eye-catching chartreuse with forest green contrast details (a new color shade in the G-Shock family) the G6900GR-3 reinvents the classic G-Shock DW6900. Beneath its sleek finish and irreverent color reside G-Shock’s superior water and shock resistance, 48 City World Time and 1/100 Sec Chronograph.

G2300GR-3
An evergreen twist on a classic G-Shock, The G2300GR-3 features unparalleled shock and 200M water resistance, 48 City World Time and Daily alarm with snooze.

The Go Green Project watches will be available in February 2010 for $110 each.

Another highlight comes from Original Fake. Together with Japanese brand SANTASTIC! they present the “KAWS Hasheem” t-shirt. It comes in both black and white and will be released on May 8th, along with the Black Companion Bearbricks, that we just presented.

They came from nowhere and have pretty much stormed the fashion market in recent years. A brand that was exclusively known for their premium down jackets, is step by step entering every category of the luxury market. We especially like their Thom Browne designed Gamme Bleu collection. As part of the collection, Moncler introduces for Spring/Summer 2010 their first sunglasses. The frame slightly reminds us of Moscot, while the leather pieces remind you of the ski heritage and the 3-stripe strap is of course clearly the Thom Browne signature. The sunglasses are now available from Restir.
