I'm On A Boat (Featuring T-Pain) by Lonely Island

I can see myself listening to this in my car.

Sorry about the weak post count lately, I've been doing rill life shit.

Daily Milk Bottles

Designed by DAG designlab out of Israel, the mold uses adjustable side walls that consist of 10x10 bars that adjust according to the weather, dollar currency, price of a barrel of oil, and calls to the suicide hotline. A blue bottle indicates a cold day, a green one indicates a warm day.


Thanks Designboom

BBC Motorcycle Jacket

"Jedi inspired". Clean as hell, well cut, handsome material.

I wouldn't mind seeing this in other materials though.

Thanks BBC

Marimekko Textiles

I like this.

Collage Paris

By ECDM in France. The Collage Paris is a 63 social housing development.

I'm in love with the contrast between the facades. Can you imagine rounding a corner and seeing that without expecting it?

The building seems to be on a fault line between glass and steel modern architecture and the classic style of Paris.A Different View of the Facade

Vans Snake Skin Pack

Finally some Vans I can get behind. I'd definitely get caught in the Sk8 His.

They're not real snake skin, but that's alright, because the costs would outweigh the benefit when it all came down to it.

Gourmet 2009 Spring

If you look back a few posts, I already posted about Gourmet's Due model for the 2008 Holiday season. Gourmet's Spring 2009 Collection includes the Due in canvas and new colorways, as well as two other models, the Uno and the Tre.

Here they are...

G.I. Joe movie

Now I'm basically already in love with Transformers 2, but I don't wanna write about it because I'm so excited I get all flustered trying to type it out, so here's the trailer for another kick-ass update of an old cartoon classic.

Trailer & Info

I'm suped. I still have an old Transformers VHS (that I stole from a local video store before I moved) with a G.I. Joe teaser at the end, now both live action films are going to drop in the same summer? Dope!

Also, check out the Baroness. Although she's less attractive as a brunette (which she appears as in the movie), she also appears with a larger bust, so it's a compromise.

Thanks Comingsoon

Air Zoom Toki Lux

Yeeeesss. These are dropping in select stores around your major cities: NYC, LA, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Boston, Miami, etc...

See the hypebeast link for the exact locations. Damn I'm lazy, bad enough I haven't posted in a week but now I'm not even down for some copy+paste action.

Thanks Hypebeast

Vans Sk8 Hi "All Over Check"

What the fuck? I've never felt so violated by a pattern.

Looking at this shoe feels like getting smacked with a chessboard... like a thousand times.

I saw Corey Holcomb on Comedy Central a little ways back. I don't feel like writing anything tonight, so I figured I'd put him up instead.

Raf Simons Fall 2009

As I alluded to in the last post, Raf Simons's Fall '09 collection is gorgeous. It's by far the most masculine show to come out of Fashion Week. Even the contrasting sleeves are handsome on some of the jackets. I'm not feeling those oversized sleeves on the overcoats though, they're just obnoxious.

Thanks Men's Rag

...And I Was Mad When Thom Browne Started Selling

What the fuck?! Comme Des Garcons showed this little number last week. I can't believe my eyes. I don't care if it was in Paris, this is wrong. If you're a transvestite, that's fine, do your thing, but don't put some shit out in a men's collection that's clearly not for men. I mean god damn. I'm at a loss for words.

At least Raf Simon is still making clothes for men.

Thanks Kanye West Blog

Proof That Taste Doesn't Equal Talent: Kanye West x Louis Vuitton

Now I'm fully ready to eat my words if the rest of these shoes turn out to be great, but as of now I'm thoroughly disappointed with what I've seen of Kanye West's five design collaboration with Louis Vuitton. You couldn't pay me to put these things on. I regularly visit Kanye's blog, and I like a lot of the shit he puts up there but sometimes I think he may just be posting things because they're expensive, and I can't see any other reason somebody would be interested in this sneaker. I mean, take away the fact that it'll retail for more than $200, and you've got a payless shoe on your hands.


The most interesting part about the above design is the fact that somebody went ahead and found a way to ruin boat shoes. Don't get me wrong, I don't really fuck with boat shoes in the first place, but god damn you didn't have to throw that puffy shit on the back like that. It looks out of place.

And before you jump to that classic "you're just hating on Kanye" bullshit, know that I'm not. I have nothing personal against him. I listen to his music, it's good as hell. But you gotta know when to stop supporting somebody just because you like him or his music, and let him know that what he's doing is ugly... as though he'll ever read this.

Thanks Hypebeast and Mr. West

New Gourmet Shoes

Gourmet Shoes is coming out with some new styles for this year. If you know Gourmet so far, they've basically been simplified Jordans. This collection is supposed to mark a departure from that copycat style to a more independent, still simple and clean, style. If the above shoes are any indication of the rest of the collection, we've got some good sneakers coming our way.

You can still see a little resemblance to some classic Jordans (XI), but with the zipper and clean leather body, these have an outstanding new look.

Wooden Three Finger Ring

Sick. I swear I thought of something like this a few months ago.

LRG

LRG, or Lifted Research Group is getting weak, fast. Apart from a few cool designs every season, LRG is turning into one of the weakest brands out. Don't misunderstand me, a few years ago all you could catch me in was LRG, they were new and had some of the hottest shit I'd ever seen. I remember when they dropped the LRG Sidekick 2 I almost switched to T-Mobile to get it, except I was a broke kid then. I was a broke-ass LRG fiend.

Now LRG seems to be the broke-ass ones. Now I'm not sure if all their designers quit, or if they really think this is the direction they should be taking their brand, but I can't see myself getting back into LRG any time soon.

Everybody Knows by John Legend - music video

John Legend - Everybody Knows (NEW)
Uploaded by elpolemico

John Legend is definitely one of my favorite artists, and Everybody Knows is an incredible song, but I'm not sure yet how I feel about this video. I'll have to watch it a few more times. Lemme know what you think.

Jaydiohead

Jay-Z x Radiohead mashed by Minty Fresh Beats.

I'd say this is the dopest mash-up I've heard in a while, if not the dopest ever. Get up on it. Some of the tracks (8 and 10) don't make much sense to me, and the timing on the last (tenth) track, sounds a little wrong, but I'd still put it in the top 5 mash-ups I've heard.

Jaydiohead

P.S.- Much love to the Dj for putting it all in one place. I think I speak for us all when I say that we get tired of chasing things around zShare all day.

Welcome and Good Evening

Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to personally thank and congratulate you for, visiting the only official outlet of the thoughts of Hugo Riche, Esq.
