Trace Lamp by Jon Irons
We always are searching for the best and most innovative forward thinking design no matter what it may be so when we were introduced to this Trace Lamp by Jon Irons himself we had to share it with you.
The stripped down and minimal lamp is made of two pieces of light weight bamboo which not only is a renewable source but also just looks great no matter your personal taste. Jon's inspiration for the Trace Lamp was to create a piece using the least amount of materials as possible but still ensuring you have a clean and great conversation piece for your office, living room or just about anywhere you can think of.
The project is currently running on Kickstarter and has nearly met its initial goal mark so you can definitely expect the project to come to fruition sooner than later.

LightMode Electroluminescent Motorcycle Helmets
No this isn't a screen grab from Tron. This is an actual functional and real helmet from the innovators at LightMode. Anyone who has ridden a motorcycle knows how dangerous it can be on a day to day basis and especially if you ride when its dark. You can be the most careful driver in the world but if you get caught that one time from someone else who isn't paying attention it could be a very bad situation.
The product is very simple but completely transforms your normal helmet into something that could eventually one day save your life. The electroluminescent materials surrounds your helmet and include small controllers that power the helmet and gives the rider the ability to either have the lights on consistently, blink or just have them off. You can choose from 5 different color options which include aqua, red, white, green and blue.
The project has more than exceeded its goal funding amount on Kickstarter so its just a matter of time before this starts shipping and you start seeing one on the road in your city. Make sure to go check out LightMode directly here to purchase one now.

Aer Duffel Pack: The Modern Office and Gym Bag

Deadstock - The First Sneaker Themed Coffee Shop and Gallery
As a lover of sneakers there are a few common crutches we all lean on daily. On top of that that list besides sneakers and clothes could easily be coffee. There have been specialty art/coffee shops in the past but never has there been a coffee shop that has been specifically geared and themed towards the sneaker culture.
In comes Ian Williams and his crew with what he calls Deadstock. The project which is currently ongoing on Kickstarter here, is what he plans on being the worlds first sneaker themed full coffee shop and gallery. Half of the shop will be a full running coffee shop and the other half will be a gallery geared towards the sneaker culture with displays, open mic and just a great place for all sneaker lovers to gather on a regular basis and chill.
The idea is complete genius if you ask us and we are surprised this hasn't become reality sooner than now. Make sure to go support Ian and his crew by help funding their project directly on Kickstarter here so we can see this thing become a reality sooner than later. Continue below as well for video showcasing exactly what their future plans are.

RPMWEST: Specialty Japanese Selvedge Denim Jeans
When it comes to premium Japanese selvedge denim there are only a couple companies out there who do it the right way and produce a product worth searching for. The only problem with those brands and companies is the amount of money you have to fork over to get your hands on a pair. You can easily drop upwards of at least $200 on a good pair which honestly is a little rediculous if you think about it.
RPMWEST is a company that aimes to shake the selvedge denim game up a bit thanks to their Kickstarter backed campaign that is already moving forward as we speak. Not only is everything Made in the USA but all of the materials are actually the exact same as APC which right away lets you know they are serious about what they are doing here. Available in two cuts, Slim Straight and New Classic, these jeans look to be a staple in your closet for years to come. There pants are also available in several different washes to ensure you have some versatility available from the jump if you are looking for something a little bit different from your normal Deep Ingido look.
As if all of that wasn't enough, the jeans themselves only come in at a fraction of the cost when compared to the other "big" name brands out there. So at the end of the day there really isn't a good reason not to jump on board the train and be a part of the RPMWEST movement.
Make sure to go check out their Kickstarter directly here to help fund them and also continue below for a video showcasing everything they are doing.
