On New Years’s Eve 2007 millions of Japanese viewers tuned into to watch one of the most anticipated fights of the year, K-1’s Dynamite Premium event. Among the competitors that night were amateur fighters in the Under 18 category, including former Kyokushin fighter Kizaemon Saiga. While his match came to draw, his rolling kick made a deadly introduction and officially started his proffessional career at age 17. In a little more than a year, six-time world Karate Champion Kizaemon Saiga has abandoned his underdog status and is Japan’s youngest titleholder and K-1’s next rising prizefighter.
Kizaemon is photographed above for the Decmber issue of Woofin’ Magazine wearing the Sno Life Boarding Jacket and Just Doin’ It Tee.

Building upon the iconic silhouette of the Air Max 90, Nike will launch the Air Max Moire during the Spring and Summer months of 2009. In the name of innovation, the Air Max 90 was remixed with technology born from the Air Zoom Moire, Nike’s first Nike+ enabled shoe. Developed by Mark Smith, the Moire’s laser cut ventilation system places perforated holes throughout the one piece no-sew upper to give strategically placed relief to hot spots around the foot while simultaneously drastically reducing overall weight.
