Quiksilver USA Files for Bankruptcy

Heritage surf brand Quiksilver has filed for bankruptcy in the United States.  News came down late last night that the surfwear giant will follow in the footsteps of Billabong after suffering similar financial issues.  The good news is that this only reflects the Quiksilver US operations, and not their European or Asia/Oceania arms.  Read more on the developments over at Stab Magazine stabmag.com

Watch It! - Nixon Ultratide Smart Surf Watch

Nixon is stepping up once again creating a smart watch for the wave chasing soul.  Their new Ultratide smart watch is connected to Surfline's renowned global network to provide up to the minute surf conditions via bluetooth, rather then the predicted data of past surf watches.  Tide, time, wave height, wind direction and speed, swell direction, and water and air temperatures, will all be at your fingertips in real time.  Check out more in this video with Rob Machado, and check out the watch at www.nixon.com.

RVCA Holiday 2014 Release

RVCA is one of my favourite street/skate brands.  They do an amazing job of fusing together the skate and surf lifestyle with real streetwear cred while at the same time promoting amazing artists with their Artist Network Program.  They just released their Holiday 2014 set of product, and I have pulled out a few pieces that caught my eye, as well as a few of their older ones too.  Check out the whole line, and the Artist Network Program at rvca.com

In4mation Winter 2014 Lookbook

Hawaii based brand In4mation has just released a new lookbook showcasing their latest and greatest products.  Featuring tee's, caps, sweaters, some featuring their "hi" logo.  The lookbook is pretty slick, and makes me feel like I want to trek to the islands and spend some time looking for the skate and surf.

Quiksilver Torrance Zip Hoodie

I know lately we've been really into the whole streeetwear thing, but we wanted to bring things back a little to our action sports roots with this sweet Quiksilver zip up.  With logo printing on the right chest and back, as well as the right sleve, the Torrance hoodie incorporates a little bit of what is going down in streetwear with hardcore logo culture, but is still perfect for an early moring surf sesh or late night bonfire.  Check it out online here.

Tropical Holiday Wardrobe from Quiksilver

Billabong Grinder Shirt

This long sleeve flannel shirt from Billabong's Garage Collection is a perfect look for fall, combining super soft heathered navy flannel and a print front pocket that adds colour and texture.  It combines the vintage look Billabong has been going for the last few years with a little bit of a tribal influence, and would not look out of place at your local gastropub or the beach.  Check it out here http://ca.billabong.com/shop/product/mens-shirts/grinder-ls?color=NVY
