DQM x Vans 2013 Spring/Summer “I Love NY” Collection | IamJuanC

Adopted long ago as the post-modern signature of New York City, Milton Glaser’s iconic 1977 pop-art “I Love NY” logo is set to make its way to two of Vans‘ most beloved footwear silhouettes for a Spring/Summer 2013 collaboration with the Big Apple’s own DQM. The special edition release sees both the Authentic and Sk8-Hi with off-white canvas uppers, white rubber foxing, vulcanized gum rubber outsoles, and the trademarked tourism logo throughout. Finished with printed branding on the insoles, the DQM x Vans 2013 spring/summer “I Love NY” Collection is due to be available in-store and online from The Vans DQM General beginning April 19.

Tudor Watches to Officially Return to U.S. Market | IamJuanC

Although many are familiar with Rolex, its subsidiary brand Tudor might fly under the radar for some as its models have been all but absent from the U.S. market for close to 10 years now. However, it was officially announced recently that Rolex has created a new subsidiary called Tudor Watch USA, LLC and promises to resume the availability of Tudor-branded timepieces in the U.S. as early as late summer this year.

While additional details on the reentry are soon to come, HODINKEE Executive Editor Benjamin Clymer and a few other loyal admirers of the brand are the first to welcome Tudor back to American shores in the video featured above.
