UNDEFEATED IS FUCKING UP!

Undftd x Converse collabo issa FAIL.
I feel that undefeated is trying to be universal with this callaboration but sometimes some things should not be done. This is a fail for undefeated to the max. The shoes are nowhere tight, at all. no class , or anything about these shoes. Especially after just coming out with the undftd x gourmet collabo.. smh dissapointed
However, just because its undefeated some people will go out and buy them just to say they have them. Typical shxt. Plus there might be some people out there that do like them. So i might see them while walking down La Brea and first one day. Prolli gon b on a white boy or somthing lol. -_-





Now after looking; tell me what you think. Pass or Fail.?

STUSSY NEW YORK CITY GRAND OPENING


After a brief absence, one of the cornerstones of urban fashion, Stussy, is back again in New York City. This newest rendition is situated right where the former UNION New York used to be and just blocks away from original Stussy New York City location. Though the storefront, at first glance, looks similar to that of UNION. One would shortly notice it to be more spacious than the former. During the 1 month period, construction crew busied themselves with fresh coat of paint and veneer. Additional lighting were installed as well as the rearrangement of several sections, including footwear, which is now part of accessories up front (minus Visvim). A brand new inventory system was added also. What did not change, however, is the same helpful & knowledgeable management and staff, a lasting legacy of UNION.


To mark its grand opening, Stussy New York City curated several limited merchandises exclusive to the store only. This include a set of collaboration chukka boots with Timberland and original graphic t-shirts in black or white. The demand for these item were such that a queue of 30+ people formed right before the store opened at Noon. Due to the renovation period, several OriginalFake products were held back till the new space is ready. Hence, Stussy will be the few retailers you will find the already sold out KAWS x Hajime Sorayama - OriginalFake NO FUTURE COMPANION Figure in Silver, the backpack from OriginalFake x PORTER - Eyes Pattern Collection, and more…

Stussy New York City will open 7 days a week, with hours for Monday - Thursday 11 am to 7 pm, Friday & Saturday 11 am to 7:30 pm, and Sunday Noon to 6 pm.

The Hundreds POST x RSWD New Era’s


This week, The Hundreds releases two limited edition New Era fitted hats, and two matching T-shirts. The release consists of a “RSWD” New Era & tee based on the street address of the THLA retail space, done in LA-inspired colors (blue and red for the clippers (booo) ) lol, and a “POST” New Era fitted and matching tee, based on the THSF location, which utilizes SF-inspired colors ( the black and purple for the sac. kings) . The “RSWD” New Eras and tees will only be available at the THLA store, and similarly, the “POST” New Eras and tees will be exclusively available at the THSF location. Only 100 of each fitted hat & T-shirt will be available.

The Skinny Jeans Phase;

I honestly feel that skinny jeans are going to go out of style in due time. I know some of you are thinking, "They been out of style", but im talking about on a larger scale. I'm not saying that i'm going to sell all my skinny jeans that i have, but i am going to change my style just a little bit. I honestly feel that in a few seasons alot of people are going to start dressing how im going to start dressing this spring. I might be wrong but my intuition hasnt failed me yet. The style im going to pick up is a more casual, classy look. More slack type pants instead of denim jeans. And they're going to be straight leg instead of skinny. Now dont get me wrong i love the skinny jean look, its pretty dope but i feel like its time for change and if anyones going to do start the change... WHY NOT BE ME! lol. i didnt get trend setter in highschool for nothing lol..

JoyRich Los Angeles


The exclusive Los Angeles brand Joyrich, holds one basic concept close to heart. That is happiness, freedom and self-expression equal a rich and joy filled life. Founder Tom, launched the full range men's and women's label in Feb. 2008 with a "think outside the box" mentality. Exploring a unique L.A. meets Japan style, Joyrich met the world with an always fresh, forward thinking perspective.
--The Joyrich Fall/Winter 09 Collection intertwines high-end apparel techniques with contemporary street casual fabrics and fits. The line delivers influential 1990's styles like the acid washed parachute styled denim and the multi faceted varsity jackets.
|example|

This season was created to be accessibly worn on or off the runway, producing a smart balance between both the men and women's collection. Like the 90's, this mixture of clothing carries a fresh energy and contemporary chic appeal, which is recognizable in any of the many pieces.

Laker Nation Cont'd

Lakers (39-12)
most recent: Lakers Vs. Trailblazers
Kobe Bryant was m.i.a this game, but his presence doesnt dictate if the lakers are going to win tonight. The Lakers is a properly arranged team so that Kobe doesnt have to be the 100% show. Lamar Odom stepped up and pulled down 22 rebounds, Ron Artist and both contributed 40 points, and Lamar Odom and Derek Fisher assist together added up to 12. All these key factors led the Lakers to victory over the Trailblazers.

Urban Outfitters New Holiday Stock




Urban Outfitters has issued their Holiday 2009 catalog. Fresh shit for those who like to stay in smooth attire through chilli weather.. However, their clothes are still slightly thin , so my best advise is to double up on the clothes. Thats what I've had to do for the days it was cold and Im doin fine. Only problem is, up here in Davis .. they say it gets way worse lol.. smh go the website urbanoutfitters.com and see if this style fits you!
