Amazing. Prolly the first online magazine I might actually read....

Edit: hoho, oh boy did i fall for that. This little sucka is cleverly produced by The KDU and Karmaloop.com. That explains all the clever ads with URLs to Karmaloop.com and the feature on SVSV...

whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa -

first off - the royal magazine IS 100% part of the KDU. now lets get something absolutely clear - karmaloop has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with with the KDU, the royal magazine, SVSV, or anyone or anything associated with these brands. they came in for a one time deal to help produce issue 5.

they are corny corny bastards and have a solid, well earned reputation for lying to and exploiting artists, designers and brands. the KDU and the royal are only interested in promoting design and streetculture, not corny motherf*ckers.

so pause on jumping to conclusions.

long live the KDU.

Quote: karmaloop...came in for a one time deal to help produce issue 5.
