TITAN X PROGRESS "SLIM REAPER" CAPSULE COLLECTION

May 7, 2014 (Manila) - To commemorate Kevin Durant’s first ever MVP award, TITAN, the first and only basketball specialty concept store in the country, once again collaborates with Manila-based streetwear clothing brand, PROGRESS, to give you the ‘Slim Reaper’ capsule collection. 

Nicknamed ‘Slim Reaper’ for his thin frame and no remorse, unapologetic attitude on the court, Kevin Durant’s routine performance this season of slaying the opposition by scoring at will, further glued his death-associated moniker.

The three-piece collection includes a basketball jersey, tee and socks decorated with wilted pastel flowers, as well as the reaper himself passing through, mirroring KD’s MVP accomplishment as an inevitable, no hard feelings acceptance to the end. 


The Titan X Progress ‘Slim Reaper’ capsule collection will release at 11AM on Thursday, May 8, 2014 at the Titan Flagship Store, Titan Fort (Two Parkade), Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. Limited quantities are available.

#DIESELREBOOT | THE DIESEL SS14 STYLING EVENT

April 22, 2014 - A number of the Metro's most stylish and influential personalities flocked to Diesel Greenbelt 3 to experience first-hand the splendor of the Italian denim brand's Spring/Summer collection.


The styling event was lead by Preview Magazine's Fashion Director Daryl Chang. She shared with the guest her insights on fashion, a bit of design, and the entire Diesel lifestyle.


To call the event a big success would be a bit of an understatement. #DIESELREBOOT did just what the invite promised; the brand, in some way, was re-introduced to a more current market (through the attendance of the industry's tastemakers). The #DIESELREBOOT Styling Event made such energy around the brand that the buzz will most likely continue until the next season's event.

FLIPTOP X WIP CAPS: THE BATTLE MC III ‘DESERT DIGI-CAMO’

WIP CAPS has once again collaborated with FlipTop Battle League to create a new BATTLE MC cap this year. This fitted cap comes in desert digital camo to represent how battle MCs have long since been going out to fight their own battles in a warzone of words and wits.

The BATTLE MC III features the iconic “Battle MC” crossed microphones logo on the front. The two crossed microphones symbolizes two things: ‘Rap battle’ and ‘No microphones’. The no microphones format is what FlipTop adopted from Grind Time Now, a world renowned rap battle league which allows MCs to be stripped down to their bare hands during battle. The design on the back, ‘STFU’ is an acronym for the frequently blurted phrase by Fliptop’s President, Anygma. This was especially true for the earlier events, when the crowd wasn’t yet familiar with the rules and kept making noise during the battles.


The FLIPTOP X WIP CAPS: THE BATTLE MC III ‘DESERT DIGI-CAMO’ will make its debut at Fliptop's Tournament Round 2 at B-Side Makati. It will be available at Wipcaps stockists soon after.
