Know?Show Day 2

Today I went back to the Know?Show, I hung out for a bit. Matt came by, on the way out he was bugging me about not taking any pics. So I snapped a pic of him...oh yeah I got a pic of the sign too.

Know?Show

Know?Show is going on right now in Vancouver. Know?Show is our little Magic and focuses on some street brands but a lot of snowboarder and skater brands.

There was an after party done by OBEY, the party was good and some seriously hot girls turned out.

Know?Show

Went to the Know?Show today. Unlike the man about town Matthew I went to the actual trade show and he will go to the after party. I had my camera with me, I should have took at least the shot of the sign outside to make this post look nicer.

I have a friend that's exhibiting there, so I was just sitting around talking and watching people walk by. Well I guess this will be a warm up to Magic.

Get Up and Get Down

Come down to Shine in Gastown tonight for the Four Year Anniversary for Get up Get down.

Finale is sponsoring, come down for giveaways.

Wallabees

Since Vince was talking about Wallabees, I wanna drop this clarification.

Back in day about 1957 - 87 Clarks owned a company in Ireland named Padmore and Barnes, and out of this factory came the wallabees. Eventually, Padmore and Barnes had a management buy out and now most wallabees are made out of Asia.

If you are a real gear head you will only want to own the Padmore and Barnes wallabees, and not the Asia joints, its like having OGs versus reissues. Look on ebay for the Padmore and Barnes joints, they come up once and a while. I got a pair handed down from my dad. Nice taste pa!!!

Supreme, Paul Smith and Ships did their collaboration with Padmore and Barnes.

Tidbit I just stole from the web.
The recently released Nike HTM Zoom Macropus pays tribute to the Wallabee in both name and form. The macropus is the genus of the members of the macropodidae family, which includes kangaroos and of course, wallabies.

Jamario Moon

This guy is a problem.

Toney

Since Matt made a post about socks I thought I would post this old Ghostface TV spot.

Half Socks > No Socks

Here is my new steez. I like the look of no socks when wearing shorts or when you roll up your pants, but without socks your feet and shoes stink and going to people's houses feels weird. Here is the solution, I buy these short, hella thin womens socks from Walmart and fold them at the arch. They are so thin they don't bulk up much and support the arch and feel comfortable.

Now, your feet and shoes don't stink, and when you go to peoples crib you can unroll them and look like a normal citizen.

Lets be real, those no shows still show. This is the FUTURE!!!!!!

Budget GPS

Props to my man Josh from Brknhome on this one. It is easy to get lost when you travel, especially in a city like New York, so many spots to see, so many subway lines etc. If you dont have the iphone or a GPS unit on you, you can do this.

Go to superfuture, google maps, transit websites and either save the image and upload them to your memory card on your camera or take a picture of the screen. This way, you have a map on your digital camera any time you need one. You can zoom in on the image and see a perfect amount of detail. This saved us from getting lost so many times, its great.

Do it, and impress your female friends. So smart.

New York City

For the last few days I have been in New York. Love this place. I have a lot of friends here now so going out is awesome, good parties, good food, and good times. I will share some moments when I get some pictures on the computer.

But yesterday played a game of soccer with the Chinatown Soccer Club, these guys are good, like real good. A lot better than the people I play with back home. But I still only let in one goal and it was kinda of a fluky goal. I got a good picture on my holgaroid that I will add to this post later.

Rent is expensive in this city, not sure how people do it. Maybe one day I will try but this city might just chew me up and spit me out.

I just picked up this Lamy Noto pen. It's designed by one of my favorite designers, Naoto Fukasawa.
