Rickey stopped by today and dropped off a new Rin Tanaka book. I was on the phone while he was picking up one for him self. I had asked him to pick one up for me. I am a big fan of Rin Tanaka. He has an amazing eye for vintage motor cycle jackets, old motor cycle boots, old surf and skate tee’s. Basically every thing old and cool he knows about it and probably has it. You can see him once in a while at the rose bowl selling some of his cool stuff.

James Hammonds (Left) and his friend Kamran stopped by the studio. James and Kamran are both very sharp! These two are keen to pick up on the smallest details. All the long hours seam all worth it when we hear our details are noticed. We had a good conversation about fashion. Where it’s been and how things have changed.

Cheers guys, Thanks for showing us some love.
WGSN is a private internet site for trend forecasting and market research mainly for clothing, shoe and car design companies. I was first introduced to WGSN back in 1998 while I was at designing for Puma A.G./North America. What these guys do is attend most all the trade shows going on globally and recap the highlights of what took place. They also window shop all the major cities in the world, and post snap shots of their findings on the internet for their clients to see. We got news today that WGSN put us on blast as well as some of our friends.







We believe in young talent. Josh man stopped by last night to personally tell us some good new about his work day. Cooled out for a while over some 15 Year French Oak Glenlivet Wiskey and a couple slices of oven fired pizza. Cheers Joshman.
