Last Thursday night (Feb. 19th) Russlan Karablin, known to the sneaker/streetwear world as “SSUR“, made his way to Moscow to release the SSUR III series: a Water Resistant version in a hunting colorway and a uber-ballistic nylon make up done with a variety of camos from around the world.

Selected invitees, media and VIPs attended the launch at a place called KixBox store, and a private after party at club Gasgolder, complete with topless models and all kinds of Russian debauchery.

The staff is already looking sharp, dressed in Ted Baker London digs, so it could be a good move for the West Coast skate brand. Anything to get it’s parent company, Quiksilver,’s stock moving.
