Shoes

A long time ago Matt used to be into shoes. Now he's a jaded dude that wears non nondescript kicks all the time with no socks.

I was never too heavy into kicks. Matt actually made fun of these Stabs I got a little while back. Yeah I like bright colors. I actually wear a lot of plain kicks these days too. I have about 6 pairs of Vans Era's that I wear on the regular.

I've been paying more attention to shoes lately. With the onset of love for high end sneakers like Lanvin's, Common Projects and etc. With Nike coming out with new technology like the lunar foam and the flywire. I'm starting to get interested in kicks again. I know it's not very cool and the Hyperdunks don't look very good with New Standards. I like innovation.

My friend Rich just started a blog on sneakers with a slant on innovation, peep it here: sneakerpedia

There was always a sneaker themed shirt for every season of Finale. We skipped it for Fall 07 and we skipped the entire Spring 08 season altogether. But for Fall 08 we got another one coming.

Here's a sneak peak of it:



Yes it's colorful, yes it's a sneaker shirt.

Don't worry for all you cool guys I'll post a picture of a plain white American Apparel V-neck (which fits wack by the way, H&M and Uniqlo got the dope v-necks) for you next week to drool over.

back on track...kinda

Well it's been a while and it looks like we are back on track. Well on track for Fall. Looks like we missed out on the Spring/Summer season altogether. Which is not really alright, but what can we do? At least we are set for Fall, well we will be set for Fall. I have to meet with Matt the Boss aka the wearer of blank tees, plaid shirts and food reviewer.

We had to take one design out of our line up. I had no idea Supreme had the same flip. Oh well, another graphic cancelled, at least this time it's not by Matt.

The Cheaper Show




This is what Vancouver needed. The show was incredible, much respect to those who were a part of it in any way. The venue was huge and perfect for the showing, and everything was well organized (liquour sales, art sales, volunteers, music, security etc). Here are a couple of pics.

Props again to those involved especially my friends Jesse and Meghan.

videodrome

I've been trying to mess around with shooting videos as much as possible lately.

Here's a video of me working on my iMac. It's not terribly interesting, but at least the song is good.



I've been messing with iMovie, I'm trying to get away with learning as little as possible to get my videos online. Outside of graphic programs I have no interest in learning anything else.

Oh yeah I've been feeling this Wale freestyle peep it.

Thank You and You're Welcome


I got the Kanye book for free at his concert. I was actually pretty bummed about it because I actually pre-ordered his book months ago online. I just got in my pre-ordered version. The paper stock is thicker and it's autographed by Kanye, that makes up for the fact that I could have just gotten the free version like everybody else at the concert.

Good Will Hunting Education part 2


I just got a package from Amazon. This is one of the most interesting design books that I own. Each chapter is a separate booklet. I actually can't stand the texture of the cover, it kinda freaks me out.
