Nike Tennis Classic RPM
Nike revisits its court heritage with the Tennis Classic RPM, reworking the country club staple through the lens of 1970s tennis culture and modern streetwear. The silhouette retains its low-profile shape while introducing textured uppers inspired by vintage watchbands and luxury accessories, giving the shoe a more layered look across the toe box and side panels. Gold detailing sharpens the contrast against the black full-grain leather construction. Underneath, layered cushioning and a foam midsole provide a responsive ride, while a stitched rubber cupsole and herringbone outsole maintain the traction and durability expected from a court shoe. Equally suited for early mornings at the tennis courts of Santa Monica and late nights through Chicago's streets, balancing classic sport design with an elevated but casual presence.

Bruce Canepa's Porsche 959 SC
When it launched in 1987, the Porsche 959 was the most advanced — and practical — supercar the world had ever seen. Designed for Group B racing with a twin-turbo flat-six and all-wheel-drive, the 959 laid waste to the best Italy had to offer. The platform would never reach its full potential until Porsche enthusiast Bruce Canepa embarked on a program of improvements that continues on today — making the 959 one of the fastest and best-handling cars in the world, nearly 35 years later.
