LRG fam has always been close to MAJOR, dating back to our store opening collab efforts that set the world on notice. Over the years, we have seen LRG evolve and mature into a complete lifestyle brand. For the spring of 2010, the collection consists of really great grown-up pieces that can anchor your wardrobe. LRG crew, including skate team riders Rob Gonzalez, Karl Watson and Kelly Hart, along with music artist Mike Posner, packed up their RV and went to the Yosemite National Park to capture the essence of this collection in the natural elements.
Here are some shots of the LRG crew rocking the gear that we are presenting at MAJOR right now!

Classic Runners Pack 1 – ZX 8000:

This Torsion-System powered ZX from 1988 is a definite head turner with all new updated material story, making this one of the best runners we have seen in a while.

It’s rare occasion that sneaker companies make something special only for women, and it’s especially rare for a sneaker company to partner up with a legit streetwear label catering specifically for the females. Our friends at Reebok managed to get this done with Hellz Bellz, in creating Reebok x Hellz Bellz Top Down sneaker.

This high top sneaker features leather upper; stud details on sides; foldover ankle panel, tongue, and lining; Reebok logo on left shoe and Hellz Bellz logo on right shoe; black & bright yellow laces and white outsole.
