The homies at Alife Rivington Club have unveiled their Pop-Up shop with English Sportswear brand Umbro. The store features some exclusive product from both brands celebrating the World Cup by creating exclusive kits dedicated to the 8 nations that have hoisted the cup, as well as some collaborative hard-goods, including a red whistle and some multi-coloured beer coolers for game day. The shirts were designed by Ben Eine for England, Chamarelli for Brazil, André for France, Martín Albronoz for Uruguay, Tanino Liberatore for Italy, Marok for Germany and Zzk Records for Argentina.
Not just a Wu-Tang Song apparently. Competitors play a round of speed chess followed by fighting a round of boxing, can be one by checkmate, timeout, knockout or decision.
Saturday’s match-up between Mexican rivals Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez was touted by their promoters as another chapter in a rivalry that produced three of the most intense and action-packed fights of the last ten years, if not boxing history.

Photos from yesterday’s Basket Ball tournament. It was a great time, met some great people including the legendary Bobbito Garcia/Cool Bob Love, who clowned the hell out of some players while on the mic. Congratulations to the two winners, Berlin’s Candy Girls for the Women and France’s Pigalle Germany’s K1X for the Men. More pictures below.
You know this had to be dope for me to put up content from the enemy but holy shit they got this one directly on the nose. W+K perfectly express the ramification of every split-second decision during World Cup. The piece features some of their bigger names in Football as well as cameos from Kobe Bryant, Homer Simpson and Gael Garcia Bernal, who stars in a fictional Ronaldo biopic.
My roommate works at Nike Football’s marketing department, so this okay right? Right.
