Gucci Eyeweb Goggles

Keeping with our theme of designers and sports, Gucci has released two pairs of goggles to keep your eyes protected on the slopes. They come with either a white or black trim around the actual lenses and are held in place by the now-customary green and red headband with Gucci written prominently in the middle. The goggles will be available starting this month at Gucci stores worldwide and will retail for $195US, which, all things considered, isn't even a bad price.

Louis Vuitton Casino Trunk

Maybe I don't understand the appeal, seeing as I'm not a fan of - nor have the money for - the ultra luxurious, but a Louis Vuitton Casino Trunk seems excessive to me. Obviously some toys are hard to resist but let's think about this one: If you're in charge of lugging enough equipment to a friend's house that you need a trunk, isn't it time to proclaim yourself as the new host? However, there is one upside: the trunk comes with all the necessary hardware to play a variety of games, thus ensuring you'll have the opportunity to lose money to your buddies in a multitude of games you're probably not good at. But then again, if you can afford this, you're probably not worried about the money.

Chanel sports gear

A few days ago, French fashion house Chanel released a collection of snowboards with their logos emblazoned on the deck but for whatever reason, I hesistated to post them. Today, the photos of the rest of their collection surfaced and it's impossible for me to ignore this any longer. My favourite pieces are definitely the surfboards above (especially the one second from left, black with a white border) but I also back the tennis racquets and the scooter.

If you think this partnership is absolutely ridiculous, then you're absolutely right; but that's probably what makes this so awesome. Check out the images below.
