Resist Today Men’s Circulate Tee: eye am!

July 1st, 2009

Brought to you by the slick indie designers at Resist Today, their new Shana Logic t-shirt offering is a real eye-catcher (dang, I love a good pun!). “Circulate” is one of the t-shirt’s from their current artists series which are thematically connected through the use of images from nature and the human mind. I think maybe I have been the eye headed creature featured with such intricate detail on this 100% cotton men’s tee. Granted, I was in an altered state, but I really connect with the idea of being a man-shaped being full of snakes of energy and one giant all seeing focal point. Printed on a cream colored American Apparel blank, this item will ship from the artist to you within 7 days.

Women’s Keen Coronado Shoes: bright and charming sneakers

June 23rd, 2009

I have long been a fan of Keen sandals and I am smitten with these colorful summer tennis style shoes. I like the splash of color, combined with the white overstitching, white side-walls and laces and the slightly oversized bumper toe. Available in brindle, off white, bossa nova (pictured below), or peacoat. I am torn between the red and blue – it’s so hard to tell which color combo will most match up with the season. Constructed of a natural canvas upper and utilizing recycled aluminum eyelets, the out-sole is natural rubber and is non-marking. Customer reviews suggest these tennies will fit both wide and narrow footed persons with comfort. Like the style but more interested in a sandal? Keen has you covered – Coronado sandal.

String Republic Bunka- Color your sole

June 14th, 2009

These are some fun shoes from the indie clothing company String Republic located in southern France. They currently offer 6 pairs of these casual slip on summer shoes, each designed by a different famous artist, I gravitated towards these from Bunka. I like to add an extra pair of eyes whenever I can as I am growing old, and it seems more things are slipping by the radar! any one of these great shoes will definitely get you some looks, and cheer up our neglected foot soldiers with a bit of splashy color.

Mission Playground Skaar Bayou Belt- Hold up your hemp

June 11th, 2009

The hemp plant really is pretty amazing and versatile. The seeds can be used to make milk, tea and ground up for use in baking. they contain all the essential amino and fatty acids necessary to maintain a healthy human, and that is just the seed. the material made from hemp ranges in use from construction to clothing. If you need a belt to hold up your hemp pants, you might as well choose this one from Mission Playground. Mission Playground has many tasteful eco and green themed t-shirts (sometimes they get a tad too preachy) as well with wonderful animal and nature themed designs.

Etnies Monster Zip- BOOOOOOO!

June 10th, 2009

Zip up your inner monster in one of these fun monster hoodies up on the Etnies site, we like the green franken style hoodie with it’s zipped up eye holes. The black and white option is a nice mummy print if you’re particular to mummies. Frank has been pieced back together and his stitching is leaking a bit so be careful as you pull an ollie.

Squidfire Tiger Bolt- Tigerball Z!

June 9th, 2009

Here is a fun new shirt featuring my favorite animal the tiger! The indie clothing designers at Squidfire take into account the fact that tigers are unique individuals and they all possess their very own stripe patterns, and prints these as a three color fade so each shirt is slightly different. this tiger will also strike you dead quick as lightning.

If you have any doubt that tigers are masters of stealth and disguise feel free to watch this video and learn…remember this is basically an orange cat hiding, and moving to attack in green grass.

Bertucci A-2T Titanium Vintage- Subtle classic good looks

June 5th, 2009

This watch certainly isn’t for the people who like the high end silver modern look. I am more of a sucker for simplicity and rugged military style, and this watch from Bertucci definitely falls into that category. Don’t let its simple good looks fool you though it is a well constructed tough little champ that will get the job done, it is even somewhat waterproof. It has a 2 ply nylon strap and a tough titanium case, which is really great at this price point of around $139.
