V.O.B. - Fashion: Ralph Lauren Black Label Escape Jacket
Obviously, Ralph Lauren needs no introduction. He’s built an empire in his brand that is almost beyond compare with over $5 billion in estimated revenues for 2009 and a personal fortune estimated near $2.8 billion. In its over 40-year existence, he’s seen his brand, and all of its various offshoots, woven through a myriad of cultures, in and out of vogue, enough to fill far, far more space than we have here. He created his Black Label brand (positioned just below the Purple Label) in 2005 to cater to the modern man with slimmer silhouettes, higher armholes, and fresh materials. Born directly from these ideals, his Escape nylon M65-style jacket caught our eye. It’s “Gehry Grey” (read: silver) weather-resistant main is perfectly offset by the medium brown leather tab details at the collar and sleeves. It also has a two-way front zip with leather tab leading to a point collar that actually folds into a standing collar using the snap closure. It’s the perfect marriage of construction and detail, which is what Ralph Lauren, at his best, is really all about. Available here.

V.O.B. - Technology: CTRUS football by AGENT
CTRUS football by AGENT
a secretive 'strategic intelligence embassy' by the name of 'AGENT' just informed us of a new football
they have designed called 'CTRUS'. billed as 'the first soccer ball you can see through' the design
emulates the bounce of an inflated pneumatic soccer ball, but offers the advantage of not loosing air.
an inner light also displays if the ball is over the goal line or outside the field of play.
---
following information provided by AGENT:
'CTRUS’ functional principle is based on the mechanical properties of its materials. it is composed by
an inner structure (skelle-core) and an outer net-embedded shell, made out of reinforced elastomers.
these pieces have different durometer according to its structural location. the flexibility provided by
its materials, emulates the bounce of an inflated pneumatic soccer ball, but offers the advantage of
not loosing air. CTRUS doesn’t need air in order to perform.'
CTRUS provides added functionality controlled by the electronic components in its nucleus
which communicate wirelessly with control stations at the stadium:
- inner light, color changes at critical game situations (goal, offside and out of bounds).
- recording of kick force and travel speed.
- location of the ball relative to the court (interactive detection system via GPS / RFID).
- P.O.V. camera footage (software stabilized image).
the HYB method
with the HYB method, AGENT skilfully rearranges specific components from diverse sources in
order to obtain new effective hybrid solutions and applies them where they are needed.
the HYB method presents new approaches for the endless paradigms and challenges of our
times as well as for the complex futures upon us.
AGENT
we firmly believe that for every mission there is a unique solution. by re-defining current
problematics as design opportunities, we develop custom made experiences for each one of
our clients and the end users. the way of the AGENT means creating innovative results for
any segment that requires design; and most importantly, getting involved in projects that positively
impact our society and the environment.

V.O.B. - Advertising: Nike Presents: Human Chain
“Everybody gets knocked down, how quick are you going to get up?”
Nike’s new short film, Human Chain, celebrates the intensity, dynamism and determination that connects athletes in all sports and motivates them to inspiring performances.
From Lance Armstrong on his bike, to a six-year-old studying martial arts, movement is the universal language that connects the athlete in everyone. It’s a language of beauty, drama, tragedy and triumph.
The 60-second film launches February 12th in the United States and features Oscar Pistorius, Sergio Aguero, Deron Williams, Maria Sharapova, Mike Spinner, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, LaDainian Tomlinson and Lance Armstrong alongside lesser known athletes as they all connect in one continuous chain of motion.
The acclaimed UK band The Hours’ “Ali In the Jungle” delivers the soundtrack and Wieden+Kennedy, Portland, was the creative agency.
