Courtesy of hypebeast, GQ is looking to open their their new retail space beginning at Japan’s Estnation. The store will feature three floors broken down into various departments including International fashion designers, golf wardrobe and business attire. Further details regarding the project will follow within the coming weeks.
Envisioned by designer Mark Sanders, the clean and striking IF Mode is aimed at commuters of the mobile generation who, until now, may have not considered cycling or folding bikes to be an option. IF Mode avoids oily chains, complex tubes with hidden dirt traps, and the clutter of traditional bike features.
Meant for city commuters rather than bicycle warriors, it looks at home folded up on a subway or in an office, like other well designed accessories in your life. It also performs on the street like any lightweight, well-balanced full size bike.

Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal and Craig Hatkoff founded the Tribeca Film Festival in 2002 following the attacks on the World Trade Center to spur the economic and cultural revitalization of lower Manhattan through an annual celebration of film, music and culture. The Festival’s mission focuses on assisting filmmakers to reach the broadest possible audience, enabling the international film community and general public to experience the power of cinema and promoting New York City as a major filmmaking center.
The 2009 Tribeca Film Festival has Woody Allen and Larry David as the face of the spring festival with some films that are definitely worth watching. Which ones, you ask?

The last time we saw a Segway was our local mall’s rent-a-cop commanding authority on his high horse during the PS3 launch a few years back. Since it wasn’t able to make its way into households like the PC, Dean Kamen and company went back to the drawing board and this time with GM by their side.
Dubbed the Personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility Project, or P.U.M.A. (for now), the self-balancing two-wheeler nearly triples the speed of the original Segway at 35 miles per hour and seats two for a luxurious tours of the city and the P.U.M.A. can apparently talk to surrounding vehicles to avoid collisions so you can do all of that in peace.
Pricing and release date are still a mystery but the P.U.M.A. is making it’s official debut at the New York Auto Show this week so we’ll be getting more info soon enough.
