Supreme A/W 09

It's that time of year again ... Supreme unveil a teaser selection for their upcoming A/W season. The first drop will launch on Thursday 3rd September in NY/LA and Saturday 5th September in Japan. Although this is their largest preview yet there are many more amazing items they haven't revealed including some awesome collaborations. Stay tuned.

DJ AM R.I.P

I've just returned from holiday to hear the sad news that DJ AM aka Adam Goldstein passed away on Friday 28th August 2009. Adam was a pioneering DJ cutting up House, Hip Hop, Rock, Indie & 80s styles & a big influence. He was also a big time sneaker head & was about to launch his own Dunk Hi for Nike (in his own words "a dream come true").

Oasis Split

After over 15 years of sibling rivalry it looks like Noel has finally had enough & called it a day on being the lynchpin of Oasis. This comes as very sad news for British music as (Love them or Hate them) Oasis were definitely one of the finest we ever had.
Having been fortunate enough to see them play live 40 times, since they played Bath's Moles Club in March 94, you never quite knew what you were gonna get from an Oasis gig but it was always a proper Rock'n'Roll show for sure!
Don't look back in anger Noel ...

Hasta La Vista

Off to catch some overdue sunshine! See ya soon ...

Starks Chomper Laces

Congratulations to my boys Leo & Alex for pulling off the accessory of the year! Their collaboration with KAWS has finally released after they told me about it back in August 2008. Strictly limited to Original Fake dealerships including the stunning O.F boutique in Aoyama. For information on Starks in the UK email polkadotagency@gmail.com.
Nice one guys!

Deathbowl To Downtown

Having premiered in NYC back in May this movie appeared to have no sign of actually being released. Now there's a rumor it's releasing on DVD in the States mid-September so hopefully the UK will also get to see this fascinating documentary about New York City skateboarding.

New Season

Unbelievably it's the start of the new football season already - Summer seems to get shorter every year in this country! Bristol City's opening game was to Preston away and we drew 2-2 which sounded kinda unlucky considering we were 2-0 up until the 82nd minute! Looks like another 8 months of stress to look forward to then!

Chocolate Pepper Land

Being a lifelong Beatles fan I'm loving this set of decks from Chocolate. My auntie was one of the illustrators on the Yellow Submarine movie so I'm sure she'll be flattered!

Shiny Disco Wheels

I'm not a great fan of the Three Stripes but these wild Promodels from designer Jeremy Scott really caught my attention. Looking like something straight outta "Saturday Night Fever" you're gonna have to really dress down to pull these bad boys off!

MCA - Get Well Soon

Adam Yaunch - "MCA" from The Beastie Boys sadly has discovered a cancerous tumor in his salivary gland. He's due to have surgery this week so get well soon Adam.
The Beasties have been firm faves of mine since Licence To Ill dropped in 1986 and are always amazing live so I'm looking forward to 2010 with the release of "Hot Sauce Committee Part 1" and possible UK dates.
Here's a great old pic of Adam with the Dalai Lama (rocking a classic Supreme coach - nice!)

Vinti Andrews for Nike

Yesterday I saw these cool creations by artist/designer/ex Central St. Martins student Vinti Andrews. Both the pitbull and the Stepper bike are made entirely of Nike Dunks. Apparently the pitbull has a companion at Loveless in Aoyama, Tokyo.
