Seiko Prospex Diver Scuba Mechanical Polygonal

If you’ve been looking for any excuse to buy a new watch, Seiko has been putting out a ton of great timepieces that, while won’t exactly break the bank, will definitely make you think twice before dropping some decent cash. This week, we’ve got a threesome of Seiko Polygonal Prospex Divers. Seiko remixed its typical diver watch with an updated polygonal shape that makes the bezel easier to turn but, according to Seiko, “combines qualities of a sports watch with the elegance of a dress watch.”

Plus, if you want people to do a double take, thinking you’re rocking an Audemar Royal Oak—thanks to those rigid edges—the scratch-resistant, Lumibrite-equipped face has you covered. Get a better look at the Pearl White, Coastline Cobalt, and Ocean Gray options here.

Nike Dunk Low ‘Halloween 2024‘

If you’re a boring sneakerhead who’s worn one too many Scream costumes and has simply no interest in dressing like Jason for the umpteenth time, look no further. Now, you’ve got an excuse to add another pair of fall-ready kicks to your collection by way of a new pair of Dunks. The Halloween theme on these isn’t over the top with a cracked leather look, yellow blood splashed on the insole, and a barely-there etched skull on the toe box.

If you’re a purist and would rather your classic, chunky Air Force 1 over the Dunks, Nike’s got you covered on that front too. Similar to the Dunk, most of the sneaker’s theme is found on the toe box, with the perforated holes bearing a striking resemblance to Jason’s mask. Plus, if you’re a sucker for the details and accessories, the sneaker’s tissue paper looks like the infamous Camp Crystal Lake depicted in the gory film franchise.

Anti Social Social Club x Bape

Calling all Hypebeasts. Japanese fashion brand A Bathing Ape is partnering with ten-year-old streetwear mainstay Anti Social Social Club to update some of the former’s most iconic pieces. The ASSC logo isn’t slapped across some threads. It comes in the form of the infamous full-zip hoodie, the Bape Sta silhouette — for men and women– and the newly introduced Shark Sta sneakers. All of the goods are dressed up in the iconic camo green colorways, pink text, red roses, and detailing.

Aside from a trucker hat and a nearly $250 skate deck, much of the collection is still available here.

The famed Wu-Tang Dunks were the holiest of sneaker grails, with reportedly a few dozen or so of the Iowa colorway of the famed basketball kicks getting a Wu-Tang logo that made it a hypebeast’s dream. Nike did deliver a shock drop a month or so ago, but quantities were so limited, those pairs are going for about $600. But, you can get them at retail on Nov. 9, you’ll just be playing sneaker lotta aka battling the sneaker buyer hoards on SNKRS for a pair. Nike even recruited the Nova Knicks to further hype the retro release. So we suggest you call in your plugs now.—Ålvin aqua Blanco
