Vans is known for their custom culture, so it’s fitting for them partner with RIT Dye for a DIY boardshort package. By the look on Dane Gudauskas’ face, he seems like a satisfied customer. Or very manic.

If only there were a women’s version.

Check out the Astros’ throwback uni’s from last night’s game against the Braves. How great are these? Despite losing 4-6, the Astros celebrated the 50th anniversary of their first franchise game with retro Colt .45s uniforms. Just beautiful and so clean. Promo Colt .45s caps were also given to the first 10,000 fans.

Amidst all the flash and energy that I’ve grown accustomed to seeing in motocross kits, it’s refreshing to look outside the bubble a bit and see something new, but no less arresting. The Icon Variant Battlescar Helmet is a visually stunning street helmet with equally techie details to match. Something about the green colorway with the blue (?) visor is reminiscent of an insect, but that’s hardly a complaint. I’m intrigued by the ‘Rubatone’ rubber matte finish; I’d love to check it out in person.
