[monolith]

I think Vogel's got that one covered

[spiveyt2]

Streetwear in what part of the world? In what scene? That could be one hell of a long book.

speaking of Vogel, he did an interview on the weekly drop website. it's a little long, but I found it interesting. He said something about Chanel making the SS uniforms during world war II so she could keep her shop and all.

They talk about the Undefeated/nike sneakers but i think they edited the interview cause of all that shit with the palestine scraf. It brought me up to date with some of the history of streetwear. Vogel says some good stuff.

yeah. that books alright. i 'm looking forward to vogel's book though. that dude knows his shit. he really impressed me with his references and all. he started the bread & butter tradeshow in germany. pretty cool tradeshow. anyway, he's down with the whole "history of streetwear". he actually knows what he's talking about and he's funny as hell too.
