Sneak Peak: Sneakers 12
It’s time, the new edition is out! We’re proud and happy to keep the printed work in the hands. In addition to the Mugshot covers are for us the highlights is definitely the visit to the adidas archive in Scheinfeld, where we have interviewed, along with the sneaker pimps, Karl-Heinz Lang, the interview with Jeff Staple, The History Check with Diadora and of course the “what Actually makes “featuring Niklas Mad Flavor.
Who “the 12” still has not, should immediately rush to his sneaker store kiosk or station of their choice. Or look at but to bridge a few sneak peaks on this page! Here are some quick impressions.
The 12-page interview with Karl-Heinz Lang is not only the longest but also one of the most interesting articles in the magazine. Quote from Kokscht, Tony Toupee, Christian and axis Holger von Krosigk were in the old archives in Scheinfeld and historical research have operated.
A shooting there is also, this time on “style crimes”, hence our Mugshot Cover with the Auckland Racer from Converse.
The History Check with Bernhard glow is of course also be there again. This time it comes to Diadora.
When brine Mart we were. Nady El-Tounsy has documented the event for us and delivered some nice impressions.
The Adidas Consortium “Tabula Rasa” Package is our “Editor’s Choice” in this issue.
Puma by Hussein Chalayan is a very unusual approach to sneaker design. We have taken up the design aspect in the illustration, the Bieräugel Oliver Carsten aka “Ollanski” made for us.

Honda NSX returns
Auto Express Article –
The legendary Honda NSX supercar is back. These spy shots, taken on the set of the new Avengers movie, show a new Acura-badged Audi R8-sized supercar that previews a successor to the NSX.
Acura is Honda’s US-only luxury brand and the sports car was spotted in Central Park, New York, with actor Robert Downey Jr at the wheel. Its appearance is hugely significant for fans keen to see Honda return to the supercar arena.
Honda CEO Takanobu Ito recently hinted at the NSX’s revival, when he revealed: “We’re making progress with plans for an exotic sports car.” And six months ago, Ito said Honda was keen to relaunch a high-performance sports car like the NSX.
A Honda source told us that the Dual Note 4WD hybrid concept from the 2001 Tokyo Motor Show was our first glimpse at the technology that will underpin the NSX. It used a 3.5-litre V6 to drive the rear wheels and in-wheel electric motors to turn the fronts, generating over 400bhp.
Ten years later, Honda is still perfecting the technology. A source said: “Honda wants to build a supercar that breaks the mould while creating a new technological package.”
Honda is working on a VTEC V6 engine of between 3.5 to 3.7 litres, while the twin electric motor set-up will be powered by lithium-ion batteries and employ a plug-in recharge system for a small electric-only range. The result will be huge amounts of torque, but also the high-revving character Hondas are famous for.
The car will also have a weight-saving aluminium body, and is set to go sale by 2014, priced at a Nissan GT-R-rivalling £65,000.
