Sneaking in a few days early we have the 2010 range from Adidas Skateboarding and every piece in the range deserves attention.  Some of the highlights include a killer new colour of the Busenitz, Pete Eldridges signature version of the Superstar Skate (which has been on a major diet since the last season - now completely redesigned, slimmed down and debulked to mirror the Superstar 80s.  Another major change is the move away from the Soft Cell cushioning) and Silas Baxter-Neal continues to rock the Campus Vulc.  The Campus goodness extends to the black/white Lo and the maroon/white Mid - both essential basics.  Also we welcome a new model for this season - the Skate.  Proudly reintroduced straight from the 70s archive, the Skate was the first made-for-skateboarding shoe Adidas ever created, clean, basic and vulcanised - hit the jump and take a closer look.  We also have a flannel and zip hoody from the apparel collection worth checking out.

To see the pros in action check out the latest vid of the team tearing up San Francisco - see riders such as Dennis Busenitz, Tim O’Connor, Mark Gonzales, Silas Baxter-Neal, Benny Fairfax, Vince Del Valle, Dave Bachinsky, Pete Eldridge, Lem Villemin and Nestor Judkins. Directed by Juice Design and filmed by Dan Wolfe and Eric Noren.

From The Hundreds we just received the Johnson Mid - this time in grey or black perf leather,  also an assortment of Adam Bomb caps - both New Eras and snap backs.  So for all you fans of The Hundreds click here for the shoes or here for the caps.
