Skater's Paradise

March 09, 2023

Jupiter Florida is an outdoor paradise, especially for thrill-seekers like Zion Wright who grew up skating and surfing. The unique community in Jupiter allowed Zion to flourish in his creativity and enjoy the sense of freedom that skating gave him. With no fear of falling, Zion was eager to skate and embrace all the set backs that came with it. His positive spirit and risktaking mindset blend perfectly with Vans into the creation of Vans Zahba by Zion Wright.

Vans curated a unique shoe optimal for skaters, especially all-terrain drifters like Zion. Drawing from the comforting details of his hometown, Vans include muted earth tones to reflect the charming beach town. In addition a stitching of the area code there is also an embroidery of planet Jupiter invoking the town and all together, making a truly original shoe.

The perfect sneaker does exist and it's one that provides impact protection while still looking cool and being good for the enviroment.

MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon Unveil a Bold New Chapter

April 15, 2025

MM6 Maison Margiela and Salomon continue to push boundaries with the latest evolution of their creative partnership — a collaboration rooted in shared innovation and a mutual aptitude for redefining functional fashion.

With a foundation in activewear, the collection reimagines the running wardrobe through a fashion lens. Every piece is built to layer and remix, adapting effortlessly to the fast pace of urban life.

Launching as part of the Spring/Summer 2025 AVP collection, this genderless capsule is a seamless fusion of Salomon’s technical prowess and MM6’s avant-garde sensibility. Dropping in two waves — April 17th and May 8th — the collection blends lightweight performance fabrics with unconventional silhouettes and signature design elements from both houses.

Highlights from the collection include a reworked MA-1 bomber crafted from translucent windproof ripstop and a pair of exaggerated wide shorts, finished with laser-cut edges. Core wardrobe pieces such as tanks, tees, and fitted shorts are elevated with graphic elements that nod to MM6’s irreverent spirit; oversized logos, safety-pin inspired tags, and playful xerox-style sneaker prints. Footwear takes center stage with the return of the XT-4 Mule sneakers in two seasonal colorways and the introduction of Salomon’s Spectur 2 road shoe.

Available online at MM6 Maison Margiela and Salomon’s official websites, in selected flagship stores, and through global multi-brand retailers.

Bluecage

April 14, 2025

I don’t know what happened. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to understand it. I don’t know if I even want to. It’s like there’s a part of me that wants to forget about it, just pretend it never happened, but then there’s another part of me that keeps thinking about it, keeps turning it over in my head, like some horrible thing that won’t go away. I feel like I’m trapped in this moment, like I’m stuck in something I can’t escape. I’m not sure who I am anymore. I don’t even know what I feel. Sometimes I think I don’t feel anything at all, like I’m just going through the motions, but then I’ll remember something, and it’ll hit me like a wave, and I’ll be back in it, stuck again, trying to make sense of it all.
