Similar brands to L-R-G, Addict, Supreme that hasn´t become that big yet...

[digga]

Just looking for some new stuff that has not become too available... Any ideas what I should look for? U know... sophisticated streetwear with a kinda urban touch... Now when everyone is reppin L-R-G I want to find something new. There are millions of fresh brands out there that design tees, but I am looking for complete brands that do jeans, wovens, backpacks...

there are lots of good up-and-comers, just gotta pay attention to the forums, and go to tradeshows.

minya is a fucking joke

just get supreme. despite the hype supreme puts out pretty consistant product. quality and design on jackets, sweats, bags is on point, always.

Be Advised: Morgan Nixon AKA Moman631 AKA Moman6040 is a fraud.

Well your labels are kinda different. LRG has a different style from Supreme.

But yeah, no matter what, Supreme is still the sickness. some companies, no matter how hyped up, always comes up with great stuff.

[super]

I concur fully. Supreme still puts out the best in streetstyle you can find in the US.

[ktothe]

There are a lot of independant designers out there but none as good as Supreme or LRG when it comes to a complete line of clothing. Check out thegiantpeach.com or digitalgravel. Im not exactly sure if thats what your looking for but its a good start.

do your own homework

[bobbyhundreds]

Supreme is definitely ill. And perhaps still the best.

But this thread has seriously overlooked some heat.

I run a label called shadow which will be launching its second season in winter 06.

It's a melbourne based label and collaboration between 10 artists. We've started getting more technical with our designs and building it up to a more solid range with fleece, jackets and so on.

We're no way near as big or developed as supreme, addict, ect. But im interested to see what your thoughts are. We've tried to keep it fresh with new ideas and so on.

Also the catalog is filled with art from Melbourne guys, if you dont know anything about the scene we got brewing here, check it aswell.

The catalogs is 6 meg pdf at http://www.niceproduce.com/shadow/shadowcatw06.pdf. I'll probably only have it up for a couple of days.

WoodWood and Maharishi are two mad street wear label along the lines of Supreme, L-R-G. i dont know how big they are else where int he world but they are still relativly unknown here in Melbourne.

I really like Henrik Vibskov aswell, its a little bit more specialised but theres one or two pieces, that have a a good look in combination with street wear.

WoodWood.

I really like your stuff Koan, atleast whats shown. Keep me posted when you go live.

[minya]

wow, Henrik Vibskov's website is the most irritating unfunctional piece of shit ever. Any website that automatically maximizes itself gets instantly closed.

[Koan]

Yeah its shit, you gotta give him props for the fleece Vneck and Suit Jacket.

[minya]

Unfortunately I couldn't maneuver myself through the godawful interface to see any of the products.

I did see a Vibskov hoodie back on Aloha Rag a while ago, though, neat all-over chutes/ladders print.

astounded at young henriks flash skills.

[super]

I've seen some of henrik's stuff at Aloha rag in hawaii and it's shit. Uses AA tees and retails for $87 a tee? fuck that.

[Koan]

His site sucks, most of his stuff is way faggy, and its overpriced.

But in the mess or experiments gone wrong, begging to be killed like ripleys clone in aliens 4, there's one or two gold pieces which you wont find anyone else repping, and even less people producing. so its alright.

[ngbetter11]

if your looking for lrg type stuff live mechanics?

never seen it in person myself, but alot of it looks similar...

[shagnscoob]

dammnnnnnn koan, would you be able to send me stuff to california if i wanted to buy some shadow gear?

edit- and discount? hahaha i didnt realize how expensive it was...

[Koan]

Shit yeah dude, glad you like it.

[notesee]

Nice line of T's Koan, keep doing your thing.

Clientele is a pretty dope brand, but I'm not sure how much they're going to expand, or if they'll even go past T's, hoodies, and hats.

LRG is kind of whack. once they started showing up in Eastbay along with Ecko and Sean John as well as other 'used-to-be-quality-gear' they kind of lost all appeal to me.........Supreme is on point tho, for the most part, all the time.

Check out Dave's Quality Meat in house stuff as well as Huf's

fuckin' right i'm a doctor

[soundune]

P.S. that DQM Killers T that dropped last summer was SO overlooked. Even if you aren't an Iron Maiden fan that graphic was just redic.

fuckin' right i'm a doctor

[WhoGotMeIntoThis]

I'm gonna have to admit that I purchased an LRG logo T at Zumiez. Regardless of where their stuff is being sold I'm still gonna buy the shit that looks nice.

Digital Gravel is FILLED with urbanwear. It's almost overpopulated with screened T's and Hoodies. And all of it seems to be so damn overpriced. It's good stuff, I'm not gonna lie, but I think somebody should start up an urbanwear company that's easily affordable to anybody who wants it. It's just so hard for a small company to do. Cost comes pretty damn close to net profit for many of these small companies.

[Koan]

Yeah fully,

You want to enter the market as cheap as you can, its hard, especially if you want to have freedom creativly and use good quality fabrics, tecniques and so on without producing in asia.
