Deadpool & Wolverine Official Teaser Trailer

Now that we have had a few days to di-sect this trailer, its about time we posted it. The merc with the mouth is BACK! This time, he now enters the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and he is bringing some friends with him.

Deadpool 3 aka Deadpool & Wolverine is the only live-action MCU movie of 2024 due to the recent strikes in Hollywood. A good reset of the MCU is due anyways because of the recent run of movies not performing very well at the box office

Now, as for what Deadpool 3 will be about, is anyone’s guess. “Your little cinematic universe is about to change forever,” Wade says in the trailer, dubbing himself “the messiah” of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. “I am… Marvel Jesus.” The action-packed footage, which features the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it return of X2: X-Men United‘s hot-headed mutant Pyro (Aaron Stanford), ends with a blue-and-yellow-suited Wolverine — seen only in shadow — unsheathing his claws with a “SNIKT!”

The third entry in the Deadpool trilogy reunites director Shawn Levy with Reynolds (Free Guy, The Adam Project) and Jackman (Real Steel). It’s also a reunion for Jackman and Marvel Studios president and producer Kevin Feige, whose first producing credit was 2000’s X-Men. Reynolds co-wrote the script with Deadpool and Deadpool 2 writers Paul Wernick & Rhett Reese, and Zeb Wells (The Marvels, Robot Chicken) & Levy.

Alongside Reynolds and Jackman, the cast includes includes returning Deadpool stars Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Stefan Kapičić as Colossus of the X-Men, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, and Rob Delaney as the unpowered Peter. Emma Corrin (The Crown) and Matthew Macfadyen (Succession) also star.

This will be the first R-Rated MCU movie for Marvel Studios. “Some of the jokes are dirty, some of them are cultural observations, but that’s what we love about Deadpool, that he knows he’s in a movie, even though the stakes are real. Our movie is very loyal to that DNA too, with tremendous Marvel and Disney support, in making fun of and being self-aware about everything, including themselves.” That includes meta jokes about the former Fox properties now under the Disney-Marvel banner.

Foxtrot Uniform x ASICS EX89™

Singapore-based fictional archive brand, Foxtrot Uniform join forces with ASICS SportStyle. From 1989 to the present and all the way back, it is a project in creating new memories from nuances of the past. This exclusive release marks a significant milestone for Foxtrot Uniform, known for its unique approach in spearheading the neo-vintage movement within the sneaker community.

Foxtrot Uniform‘s first official sneaker collaboration is the ASICS SportStyle EX89™, a basketball shoe that was once a sports shoe originally coined the GEL-EXTREME™, designed by Toshikazu Kayano, one of ASICS‘ most renowned designers. The GEL-EXTREME™ was known for its stability, support, and innovative GEL™ cushioning technology, making it a favourite among pro athletes. For the present, ASICS revived the GEL-EXTREME™ as the EX89™ made for daily wear.

The sneaker retains the iconic design of the GEL-EXTREME™, including the bold colour blocking, layered leather panels, and distinctive outsole pattern. However, the sneaker sees upgrades in the following areas:

● FF BLAST™ cushioning: A lightweight and responsive technology for improved comfort and bounce.
● Sculpted heel: Provides better stability and heel strike absorption.
● Outsole pattern: Inspired by the aerial view of a city, a nod to Kayano’s first US business trip in 1987.

Positioning itself as a fictional archive brand, Foxtrot Uniform specialises in curating retail experiences with a neo-vintage flair. Notable for its vintage markers, the brand allows sneaker enthusiasts to give their shoes a faux vintage look. The aged laces, inspired by 1980s aesthetics, further accentuate the brand’s dedication to replicating the essence of vintage sneakers.

For this landmark project, Foxtrot Uniform infuses the EX89™ with its signature neo-vintage treatment. The meticulous detailing includes chalky edges, aged soles, faux glue stains, and cracked leather panels, all aimed at capturing the nuanced aesthetic of a vintage sneaker. To dial it up, the imprint upgrades the upper with premium suede accents and leather detailing. The objective is clear – to create a wearable sneaker infused with the charm of the vintage aesthetic.

The ASICS SportStyle EX89™ by Foxtrot Uniform is now available via foxtrot-uniform.net and Limited Edt Singapore. Global release on the 19th of February at selected ASICS stockists. To stay up to date, make sure you sign up to our newsletter.

G-SHOCK MRG-B5000R-1

CASIO announced the release of a new addition to the MR-G line, the flagship of the G-SHOCK brand of shock-resistant watches. The new G-SHOCK MRG-B5000R-1 inherits the iconic shape of the very first G-SHOCK — representing the brand’s point of origin — and features a highly comfortable Dura Soft band.

Based on the concept of delivering “the ultimate in toughness-driven watches,” the MR-G line sits at the pinnacle of the G-SHOCK brand, incorporating state-of-the-art technology and master metalworking techniques. Inheriting the iconic form of the original G-SHOCK, the original MRG-B5000 was released in 2022. Featuring a bezel with the Multi-Guard Structure to enable precision polishing, the watch employed cutting-edge materials including COBARION®, a super-hard alloy, finished with master polishing craftsmanship. With features such as these, it has proven very popular as the flagship model of the G-SHOCK brand.

The new MRG-B5000R-1 builds on the MRG-B5000, employing a soft, comfortable Dura Soft band to offer flexible ease of use befitting the flagship line of the G-SHOCK brand and deliver suitability for both formal occasions and active situations. The Dura Soft band offers strong resistance to discoloration, staining, and deterioration over time, while insert-molding of titanium components also enhances the strength of the band’s connection to the case. The band features a soft, comfortable textural feel, offering a snug fit even when engaging in rigorous activities. A one-touch, 3-fold titanium clasp adds stylish flair to the design.

The watch design is an homage to the colour scheme of the DW-5000C-1B, the gold-accented version of the very first G-SHOCK. A diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating is applied to the case and a gold IP finish to the side buttons. The face features gold accents as well. The band incorporates textured patterns inheriting design motifs still going strong since the very first G-SHOCK, including “SHOCK RESIST” symbols and the brick pattern. While inheriting design elements from the original model, the watch combines characteristic G-SHOCK toughness and beauty with a look all its own.

The G-SHOCK MRG-B5000R-1 is now available and is only limited for sale in selected G-SHOCK stores. To stay up to date, make sure you sign up to our newsletter. For other CASIO features, please click here.

EARLS Collection x ASICS GT-2160™

Luxury clothing brand EARLS Collection has joined forces with ASICS Sportstyle for their first ever collaboration. In 2023, we saw huge collaborations and success of the GT-2160™ sneaker. ASICS are not yet done with this silhouette. The EARLS Collection x ASICS GT-2160™ has elements that tells the story of EARLS Collection founder, Lewi Brown.

The EARLS Collection x ASICS GT-2160™ sneaker was inspired by Brown’s Māori lineage and the culture that permeates it. Inspired by iconic Māori touchstones such as pounamu, paua and the weaving of flax, the collaboration sneaker reflects the space inhabited by its designer throughout the formative years of his life.

Featuring a mix of natural cotton mesh and slightly brushed suede for the upper, the sneaker’s special printed sock liner celebrates Brown’s late grandfather. Hints of green are inspired by the various shades found in pounamu, visible from the back of the shoe to the sole and all the way through to custom two-tone flat woven laces.

The EARLS Collection x ASICS GT-2160™ sneaker will launch exclusively online via raffle at EARLS Collection this Sunday, 11th of February at 6PM AEDT / 8PM NZDT. Raffle ends on the Friday, 16th of February. Global launch will be on Friday, the 23rd of February from asics.com and selected ASICS stockists.

KENZO x ASICS GEL-KAYANO 20

ASICS has revealed its first sneaker collaboration with KENZO, which has been designed by KENZO’s Artistic Director, Nigo. There will be three colorways of the GEL-KAYANO 20 that will combine KENZO’s heritage with advanced ASICS craftsmanship.


Originally launched in 2013, the GEL-KAYANO 20 sneaker is formerly recognized for its structural cushioning capabilities while running longer distances. Its architectural aesthetic draws design influences from buildings and cars, creating a technical shape that yields a wide range of functional capabilities for everyday experiences. The heritage stability trainer is being relaunched by KENZO as a lifestyle sneaker that continues to embody advanced comfort properties and a technical design language.


Two of the shoe’s colorways and materials are inspired by KENZO’s tiger graphics. Each upper construction implements a faux-fur application that’s met with a velour texture, while modifying the TPU cage with a tiger stripe motif. The Digital Aqua/Black colorway draws inspiration from KENZO’s celebrated use of bright colors in their designs, whereas the Glacier Grey/Black iteration references the look of white tigers and one of the original GEL-KAYANO 20 colorways. Meanwhile, the third colorway references the idea of “running around the world.”

Its vivid color pops reference KENZO brand founder, Kenzo Takada’s travels around the world and various country flags, while the pattern on the upper paneling features animal embossed details. Lastly, the outsole’s color is meant to symbolize the ground that we walk on.


The KENZO x ASICS GEL-KAYANO 20 sneaker will be available from January 26th 2024 for $520 at ASICS.COM and through a network of selected retailers.
