Wanted: Futura for the ladies

Image
Graffiti pioneer, Futura , continues his collaboration project with Burton . From first layers to outerwear, the latest release is the much awaited Vapor snowboard featuring a clean top sheet and Futura's colorful design on the bottom sheet. Sick custom signature!

Futura seems to have the same art sense when designing Burton 's frist layer Sublimation Pant in Pixel Waterfall ( here below ). I want these for women... So, now the question is, when are they going to transfer these fun prints to women's soft and hard goods? I want Futura! ~Mayta Source: hypebeast , highsnobiety

Ride Snowboards likes to push the boundaries of tech with their constant binding and board innovation: slimewalls, canted footbed bindings, 1 strap bindings and more. This year, they decided to up the ante by doing artist collaborations. The women got the best end of this deal with a head to toe setup by Japanese cult brand Tokidoki . With graphics inspired by robots and anime, and tech at the highest level in the industry, they are items worth getting and keeping in your collection. The Canvas board is designed to be a Society for the ladies. It's got Ride's patented Slimewalls to dampen the feel, carbon stringers, and the new "Pop Stix" to bounce you off kickers. It's a fantastic all-mountain ride. The Scarlet Boot is new for this year with boa lacing, heat moldable liners, and furry lining for a plush, comfy feel. The Zeta binding is the highest-end women's binding from Ride. It's light as a feather, super damp, and the comfy straps are like none you...
