CTVO News

In todays NEWS at 10.

..Our top headlines include Jay-Z, November Nike SB Releases, Bo Jackson, Sidekicks, Nooka, and the new Maybach.

Our first story pertains to the November Nike SB releases which should all be in the store now.



And many more...like the Skate Mental's...and the Miami Blazers.So check your local skate shop.

Also on the topic of sneakers we also have a pack that has been doing very well in store. Bo Jackson is known in the sports world as a spectacular athlete that played in two professional sports leagues (NFL and MLB). His reign in the sports world was taken away by a injury, but will be forever known though underrated. In the 90s he was immortalized by the "Bo Knows" campaign for the cross trainers that Nike made for him. Now the same inspiration they used for his cross trainers are being used again in the Bo Jackson Dunk collection. Here are some pics of them....


Each shoe colors and materials are inspired by the colors of the past cross-trainers, the workout equipment he used, and multi sport uses.

Now we will go to our field reporter who will cover some new gadgets.
Nooka has came out with a couple "Noo(New)"watches that I think look great, inventive, and a great new way to look at time.I mean I was already a fan of theres, but I think I am touching on stalker status. Time is no longer boring and here is why....

Nooka Zirc (White, Black, Silver) available sometime in November...


ZEN-H (Black, White, Grey, Metal, Blue) some available now...other sometime in November


Also we took a look at the two new sidekicks the Sidekick LX and the Sidekick Slide...


The LX(the blue one) was released at the beginning of this month though the release party was the end of last month. The biggest improvement from the Sidekick 3 is the MMS feature, so no more emailing pictures to peoples phone; also the screen is much bigger but so is the phone.
The Slide(the black&purple one) supposed to be released on the 20th of this month, but has hit the streets already(shit I could have had it). It has exactly the same features as the LX, but it is made by Motorola rather than Sharp. The screen is the same size as the Sidekick 3, but it is much more compact and slides up rather than around. So you can have an idea of the size of it, it is the size of a IPhone. There has not been any bugs or recalls reported on the LX, and I expect the same and better from the Motorola Sidekick Slide.

Now for our feature story Jay-Z and his partners bought the British streetwear company Artful Dodger for 15 Million. And released the following statement...

"Artful Dodger is an incredible brand with a lot of room for growth and Scott Langton is a visionary designer. They represent what's next and new in fashion and we are glad to have both the brand and Scott as a part of our family."
His business partners Iconix Brand Group Inc. last week under the company name Scion(a joint venture between the two parties), also bought Jay-Z's "Rocawear" Clothing label earlier this year for $204m in cash.

Also on the topic of Jay-Z you may have seen this convertible Maybach in his recent video...




Thats the news at 10...tune in next week when who knows what the headlines may be.
