In today’s Live Look, we give you a detailed view of the adidas Originals TS Lite “Heat of the Bull”. A “Trophy Hunter” version of the same model was launched over NBA All-Star Weekend with the help of MMG rapper Wale. The shoe will release in limited quantities on March 30.
Puma Faas Lite Mesh – The Lightest Shoe in Golf
With the release of the Faas Lite Mesh, PUMA has debuted the lightest golf shoe on the market. Weighing in at just 6.5 ounces, the shoe has a design inspired by minimalist running, featuring a zero heel-to-toe drop that gives golfers a barefoot feeling, one that allows for a more natural stride and posture during the swing. Strategically placed corrugated flex grooves deliver optimal flexibility, working with SmartQuill traction technology to provide directional grip elements for enhanced ground contact, resulting in superior stability and traction. Evertrack carbon rubber in the forefoot and heel supplies long lasting durability, while an Ortholite sockliner is good for all day comfort and an enhanced fit. Look for the PUMA Faas Lite Mesh to release at PUMA Golf retailers starting June 5th.
Release Date: June 5th, 2013 (Wednesday)

Casio G-Shock x Supra Vaider Lite – “It’s About Time” Edition
”For the past 30 years, we have been committed to finding like-minded brands and SUPRA is one of them,” said Shigenori Itoh, Chairman and CEO of Casio America, Inc. “The partnership between us is a true testament to what both our brands stand for and the skate industry that we support. As one of the top core skate sneakers on the market with a lifestyle connection, it was only fitting that we partner to create a dual-branded sneaker and timepiece. SUPRA’s dedication to developing innovative and dynamic products that are durable and can withstand the most uncompromising situations is the perfect match for a G-Shock, the toughest watch on the market. We look forward to the release of our first, yet not last, tie-up launching this summer.”
In the need for a signature model to best represent both Casio G-Shock and Supra‘s common interests in the “It’s About Time” collaboration, designers went for the obvious choice, the Supra Vaider Lite. Featuring a black Stain TUF upper with SUPRATUF abrasion resistant coating, this special Vaider Lite also employs the lightweight SUPRAFOAM sole for shock absorption and comfort. To best complement the Supra x Casio G-Shock GA-200SPR-1AJR Watch, each comes with a custom G-Shock insole in red, red traction pods, and a tongue tag with a “It’s About Time” clock motif set at “8:13″ or “20:13″ in military time for 2013.
Similar to the watch, this matching Supra Vaider Lite will be available on Saturday, May 11th, at select Supra retail locations around the world and suprafootwear.com.

[NEW RELEASE] REEBOK PUMP OMNI LITE (BROWN AND PURPLE)
Reebok keep pumping out the goodness, and these Pump Omni Lites are the latest eye-snatchers due to hit shelves soon. Shiny flashes of plastic purple pop off the side cage and midsole, while a slab of cement grey on the bottom brings the business class style. The biggest story here though is the big brown upper – it’s a lush leather outfit that plays off the purp and red accenting surprisingly well. These Pumps are expected to drop in September from Inflammable, giving you plenty of time to get those pennies together.
On the Road with TUMI Tegra Lite Carry-On Luggage
Checked luggage is a drag. When heading off for a weekend, carry-on luggage tends to do the trick, but when your weekend away is to Europe, luggage size restrictions can make it difficult to roll and store a carry-on in the plane’s overhead cargo bin. International carry-on sizing is slightly smaller than what we’re use to domestically here in the U.S.A. so finding a carry-on that worked overseas was necessary. A bit of online hunting brought us back to TUMI for a solution – a hardcase one at that.
TUMI kindly sent over their TUMI Tegra-Lite International Carry-On roller for testing on our recent jaunt to Rome and London. Sized international standard (IS) carry-on requirements makes this the smallest footprint in the TUMI Tegra-Lite line. At first look, one may be concerned with the sizing and volume of the IS model: it is a short and unassuming piece of luggage. TUMI reps ensured us that looks can be deceiving with the Tegra-Lite and that one should pack it up before making a judgment call.
Truth be told, the IS edition of the Tegra-Lite was a perfect size for a weekend away. The hard shell of the TUMI Tegra-Lite is made from Tegris, “a revolutionary polypropylene thermoplastic composite material created by Milliken® for use in lifesaving armor, NASCAR race cars and protective gear for NFL players.” Tegris itself is incredibly light, rugged, and works very well for TUMU in luggage form. The TUMI Tegra-Lite can really pack in its weight in clothing and shoes. I easily packed multiple shirts, denim, and a change of shoes in the Tegra-Lite IS for my trip. The rigidness of the hard case allows you to really pack things in there while also giving you a healthy reminder to not overpack.
Four 360-degree swivel wheels on the TUMI Tegra-Lite work well on almost all surfaces. I easily rolled the carry-on through airports terminals, tarmacs, cobblestone, and carpet with ease. The handle system held up well at various heights in both two-wheel and four-wheel flat modes. TUMI integrates TSA locks onto the side of the luggage, but I did not bother with it on this go around. TUMI also includes their Tracer barcode system to help locate and reunite you with lost or missing luggage. It is a nice touch of added security if you do decide to check-in your TUMI Tegra-Lite.
As mentioned, we prefer carry-on luggage whenever possible. The TUMI Tegra-Lite series of hardcase luggage offers two carry-on sizes for travel – both come well recommended. Like all great things, this luggage comes at a premium. At 5
