yeah it's true wu tang was the first nike dunk colab.......from what i've heard...

Wu Wear is Wu Tang all day-Is it still around?

I heard ghostface/theodore unit is dropping a clothing line-probably hip-hop wear? I wonder if he did the side script on that cleintele shirt??

tees are decent quality-never seen much else?

yeah the shoes were pretty dope-

maybe the marketing was off is why they died away before they really got going? Only so many hours in the days and those guys have so many other projects already that are probably more personal ie. lakai, girl, and whatevas else?

I don't know..from what i've been told with or without side seam a knit t shirt is going to torque some. And with side seams this torqueing is more obious. I think the biggest factor is the quality of the knit fabric itself and how it is prepared and cut...

Side seams is more work for sure, but that doesn't necessarily mean better quality, especially if the cutting and construction is wack....

I think it kind of all depends on the look you want too

don't sleep on mindtrix, reckon, jonny cupcakes,......too many to name.......sorry for spots being blown but freshness stands superb............

pop art-- and i think andy warhol just bastardized it...its funny i was talking to someone today about this.......warhol, basquiat, herring......not that they were the same, but from the same camp, time and some of the same motivations......

what mag is this?

http://www.neighborhoodclothing.com/

are you guys serious? Did session from nike talk just let out? Who are all these people? there just fucking TEE SHIRTS.........there meant to be fun, why are you taking them so serious? high end? art? hand made? who cares there just fucking tee shirts......

either way it's pretty fucked that stussy's trying to break a brand that it's come up with......corporate or no corporate

stussy has some pretty fresh stuff but their quality is absolutely shit.

They should put the money their using to fuck with freshjive into quality control..... fo reals...

ok......back up on the made in topic

yeah it's a federal charge to get caught changing the orgin

i know you can take out the made in tag, but you "can't" replace the tag with a tag claiming a different orgin, as far as i know?, i know some people claim to have made in us shirts, but also claim to use some of the bigger brand blanks that are made south of the border or overseas? I don't know how they do it, because none of the big brands are made in the us anymore???.........

what are you going to school for i think should be the question? pratt has a good rep as far as i can tell. if for clothing design i think fit or parsons is def. the way to go though?

You have to make it through 7th grade first though........

Don't sleep on Cardiel....

I know more on the tranny side..... but still all out/sketched speed style

thanks for the info, i was afraid this was the case:

yeah dave, if you have the time to send over somethings that would be dope. Having the original copy isn't that important, just need something to listen to

oohhh and....

Mic Geronimo's The Natural is a much slept on piece as well

Smooth da Hustlers...Once upon a time was decent

and i'm not sure how underground it is, but Fat Joe's Jealous Ones Envy is decent as well

Cormega-the Realness

Zoo York- Mixtape 1: GRIMEY

Photosynthesis

PJ Ladds Wonderful.......: is this for real?

Art Bars and Seagulls: marcovich kills it on the speed

Modus Operandi

Yeah Right........

Savanah Slamma: classic material

Welcome to Hell

Video Days

menikmati-nice but almost too perfect

Does anyone know a good source to get these albums from?

Anyone here have the Show and AG- (Runaway .....) or the Lord Finesse (Funky....)

"Okay first, Savier had some amazing shoes. Tim O'Connor's trainer was solid and his new i-path hoof is pretty much the same shoe."

You’ve pretty much regurgitated what’s already been said. Nike isn’t credible b/c they jump in and out of it as soon as shit goes sour- 1 for 3 so far………maybe 3 will be the charm, so we’ll see—given their making a grip for pawning off a cheap ass product in updated materials every couple months as limited or whatever their calling it now they may make a good run for it…..

As far as hating nike and not knowing why, -I never said I hate nike necessarily, more like how they feel the need to corner every market and soak it for what they can….it’s like stay the fuck over there and let these people make some money-they don’t have to have their hands in everything-greedy ass yuppies. I know some shops and businesses have made well off of the whole thing but I just think that’s momentarily and they’ve planted some foul seeds.

As far as other people not liking nike and not knowing why, it’s like meeting someone and not liking them, but not quite knowing why…….nike has weak ethics and no real philosophy beyond turning a dollar…..yeah,yeah I know a businesses main purpose is to make money….yada,yada, but this doesn’t mean a business has to lack in ethics and philosophy beyond the all mighty buck.

As far as skate “core†shoes I think a better example would be es, emerica, ipath, etc-comapanies that began their businesses catering to the skate world…..blah, blah, blah….P.O.V’s …..this is a waiste of time- arguing about whether or not some huge sportswear company should be making it in skateboarding……..support whatever you believe in….you don’t have to plead the case…..just do it........

Know fuck all about skateboarding?

Buying Fake one’s off ebay?

Original skate shoe?

are you serious..….

Nike =cred in skating? That’s why they couldn’t get shit off back when they attempted in the 90’s…that’s why no one went for Savier…it was just a nike front on some sb shox type-a-shit

Just because a few people skated in nikes here or there doesn’t mean they have cred as a skate shoe….especially if your really talking about back in the day when there were only a couple companies out making skate specific shoes….

Yeah they have a decent team now, but whats your point-that the team was always down with the swoosh? nah their not getting a fat paychecks to waer free shoes and get flown all over the place to skate….

Did nike “save†shops……I don’t know about that, help some shops get paid….i know alot of brokeass CORE shops that refused to sell dunks to this day and are still making it maybe they don’t have that cushion but their doing themselves…... They make “contributions†to the community, which is cool but i'm sure they do it for a fat tax write off….

I don’t know…..i don’t like any of these big companies and don’t think one is nec. better than the other….but when someone voices an opinion you don’t have to run and hold nike’s dick for em……rider..

So what you skated a pair of nikes back in the day b/c you thought it was cool…..

i hate how nike capatilizes on everything. sb are ok their the most basic of basic shoes-nothing that special. nike paid some credible people to "collaborate" with them and boom people are on tothem thinking nike is credible in this or that market. same with white label- lame, nike capitalizing on fashion, $3 shirt sewn in a third wrld country call it white label and boom you charge $50? graphics are all left overs.........they would/will do rollerblading if they thought the shit would turn a buck...............people are into this shit?

white label is quite booty-licious

so what are you saying the kids are dicks?? probably so. Most heads that work at skateshops are dicks, probably all the free babysitting they have to do and some just can't case their egos? If supremes the only one you go to then it's probably a new/huge thing to you that the service was less than good. imo those dudes go a little out of their way to be dicks sometimes but if your offended you should take it up with them or don't support the shit- not post a buncha bull shit about how bad you got treated and how they don't care about you or your stankin purchases........

I think adidas is just playing the hype game on these. Yeah they'll be out by the middle of the month, but now that every johnny come lately has had a chance to jump on it there is going to be ques everywhere, which sucks for a person that doesn't que!

hmm...I think it's pretty obvious that the guy from bathing ape put the bug into pharrel williams's ear. I mean who goes to rebok or any US sportswear company to produce high quality products??

I'm sure we'll see bbc, or whatever their going to call it, now follow the bathing ape model or one similar....the shit is bogus either way

Does anyone know if these dropped anywhere besides foot patrol today?

I talked to the local originals store and they said they won't be gettin anything until 1/15, but they also said they are getting some of the kicks next week??, i don't think they really know what their getting or when? anyways--

They said the Adi's will be retailing for 2 bills-
