Defyance—Menswear for Movement
Asaf Ganot grew up with a passion for basketball, playing in high school and college, always dressing in some sort of sports gear.
His zeal led him to Brazil where he played basketball for a year.
During that period, Asaf observed how his fellow team mates always sported attire that resembled the gym wear, whether at work or play.
Armed with a vision to create a new line of clothing that would combine comfort and mobility, Asaf immersed himself in research.
His quest first led him to Indonesia in 2004 and, then, to Hong Kong and onto Italy.
Coupled with the expertise that he gleaned from his father, who was a successful businessman in the fashion industry, Asaf defined his vision.
In 2008, he launched Defyance, replacing the ‘I’ with a ‘Y’ to symbolize the fusion of fashion with performance and a departure from conventionality (symbolized by the arrow pointing downward on the ‘Y’).

Soulland & the Adler Fedora Hat
With roots in both Sweden and Tanzania, 23-year-old Silas Adler was born in Denmark, having spent much of his childhood in rural Jutland, the main part of the country.
Prior to moving to Copenhagen as a teen, Silas lived several years in Gothenburg, Sweden.
At the age of 17, Silas founded the menswear label Soulland as an excuse not to go to school!
Now the best up-and-coming Danish designer, Silas combines the country lifestyle of Jutland with the urban trends of Gothenburg and Copenhagen.
The Adler fedora hat is a hybrid between a baseball cap and the classic fedora that is constructed using artisan millinery techniques.
Dedicated to Scandinavia, VMAN has launched a giveaway of two Adler Fedora Hats at 2pm today!

Digging Deeper into Capoeira
Last year I published an article on an athletic shoe called Paraná, which was inspired by Capoeira—an Afro-Brazilian art form that combines martial arts, dance, and rhythmic motion to the beat of drums: Paraná, Capoeira & Italian Football.
This Saturday while attending a street festival in the small historic town of Princeton, New Jersey, located just 50 minutes outside New York city, I met a group of performers who belong to Senzala Princeton University.
Although Capoeria dates back hundreds of years, Grupo Senzala was founded in the Sixties by two brothers, Rafael and Paulo Flores Viana, in Rio de Janeiro.
The movement soon expanded throughout the Americas and Europe, spreading to the New York area. The Princeton group was founded by Mestre Zumbi, who began training at the age of nine.
For additional information or to watch movies of Capoeira Senzala, click here.

Antonio Cassano—Diadora’s New Face
In occasion of the grand opening for a new store in Milan, Italy, Diadora has recruited Italian footballer Antonio Cassano as its new face.
Diadora shared this new gift of honor with the public at a press conference that was held on Friday, April 23.
Born 1982 in Bari, Italy, Antonio Cassano plays second striker for the Series A club Sampdoria (otherwise known as Blucerchiati).
Founded by Marcelo Danieli in 1948, Diadora has become equated with Italian sports clothing, shoes, and accessories, setting a fine tradition of high quality.
The name Diadora was derived from the Greek for the Dalmatian city in Croatia, Zadar, literally connoting “sharing gifts and honor”.

The Gear Ring that Spins, by Kinekt!
Are you into torque, wheels, or pulleys? Do V-belts turn you on? How about gears with cogs that mesh with the teeth of other parts?
These mechanics definitely excited the ancient Greeks, such as the polymath Archimedes(287-212 BC) and Hero of Alexandria (10–70 AD).
Now they are becoming all the rage with the Gear Ring by Kinekt Design!
Made from highest quality of surgical stainless steel, the Gear Ring is based on the rack and pinion motion of pair gears. It is the ring that spins!
Intrigued by the motion of small mechanisms, Glen Liberman launched Kinekt Design in 2010.
Check out the 30-second video on the ring that spins: the Gear Ring by Kinekt!

Lonsdale—from the Rings of London to the Streets of New York!
Ah springtime! Seems like everyone is back outdoors jogging, biking, and playing their favorite sport that was abandoned in the height of a brutal winter. Need some new sportswear? Lonsdale is a label that I well know from Italy; but it is not Italian.
Established 1960 in London by ex-boxer Bernard Hart, the line originally specialized in boxing equipment. He obtained permission to name the label after Hugh Cecil Lowther, 5th Earl of Lonsdale—president of the National Sporting Club of Britain, which later became the British Board of Boxing Control.

Hugh Lowther was nicknamed “Yellow Earl” for always wearing a yellow carnation and driving a yellow Rolls Royce. Reputed as “England’s Greatest Sporting Gentlemen, Hugh donated the original Lonsdale belt in 1909 for the champion of each weight division.
So who has worn Lonsdale clothing since its inception? Stars like Mohammed Ali and Mike Tyson are among the many fans of Lonsdale. You may have even noticed Lonsdale in the 2003 movie, “The Italian Job.”

“TuTa Symmetry” by Theatre de la Mode
I first met Chris Kelly a year ago when he sent me an invitation to London Fashion Week where he presented that season’s menswear collection of Theatre de la Mode. Now I would like to introduce you to the 2010 autumn/winter collection entitled “TuTa Symmetry”:
“‘TuTa symmetry’ is a moment of self-definition for Theatre de la Mode; with strong foundations in utilitarian design, the collection represents a natural evolution to a more fashion forward sense of wearability. As the name suggests – the perfectly balanced design takes inspiration from the clean lines and tailoring of classic menswear and twists it with the image of casual wear.
This season is particularly inspired by Thayaht, the Italian artist whose revolutionary designs led the futurists in fashion, costume, stage design, and decorative arts. Most famously, he invented a garment named TuTa, a form of coverall that was fashionable, but practical and accessible to all.
The look of Thayaht’s TuTa was simple, clean design – casual but refined for its smart approach to functional dressing. Similarly, this season Theatre de la Mode has emphasized symmetry and draping to achieve a unique form of tailored casual wear. The sweat blazer is a casual staple with a refined edge that merges fashion and function. A heavily draped neckline and a boxed silhouette combine in the snood hoodie. Trouser design is approached with a denim eye, but keeps the labels classic loosely structured silhouette. New trouser shapes come in the form of the gusset trouser and the elastic waist tailored pant.
Colours for the season are rich and neutral – moss, charcoal grey, plum, stone and navy. This is sophisticated casual wear with the feel of military uniforms: trans-seasonal dressing for urban aesthetes. From his studio in London’s east end creative director/head designer Christopher Kelly experiments with shape and proportion, designing collections for men and women that display his ever-present penchant for technique and craftsmanship. Since its launch in 2007 Theatre de la Mode has been recognized internationally in the press by publications such as Dazed Digital, JC report and Style bubble.”
