Dino Scoody by apriKot DIY clothing on Etsy: fleecy dino goodness!

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

For my birthmas this year I was lucky enough to receive a black and green, custom-made, dinosaur hoodie and scarf combo – the little known “scoody.” I freakin’ love it! I live in the frequently rainy pacific northwest, and the charm and ease of grabbing my warm, fleecy dino hood before heading out into the weather is addictive. Hand-made upon order using all new materials, your dino scoody consists of two colors of fleece – the body of your reptile, and the contrast color used for spikes, hood trim and hood-securing scarf. The spikes are well filled for proper projection into space. In profile, or even full frontal, there will be no doubt that you are a dinosaur. Stitched with love by apriKot DIY clothing and based out of Bellingham, WA, your hoody may take up to two weeks to arrive. Choose any color combination that suits you – my favorite is the classic black and green. Dinosaurs not so much your thing? Choose from among bear, deer or kitty scoodies which are also available.

Price: $30.00

Matterhorn Waterproof Mining Boot

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

Yeah these boots are waterproof, but you know what? they are probably impervious to just about anything that comes before proof. One of the toughest jobs in the world has to be mining and from the steel shank to the vibram sole these Matterhorn boots are designed to help keep the feet of these incredibly brave workers safe. It’s getting difficult to find shoes made in the USA, but Matterhorn is a brand of the Cove Shoe Company located in Pennsylvania (so you know they are tough!). You don’t need to be a miner to rock these badass boots, just hardcore.

Men’s Keen Snow Rover: cozy and dry against ice and snow

Friday, November 20th, 2009

I am totally smitten with these new snow boots from Keen! Maybe I have heightened appreciation for warmth, dryness, and good traction in a winter boot since Portland, OR got hit with a more than a few days of snow last winter. As soon as I can afford a pair, I will be placing my order for these perfect wet-weather, winter boots. Like a rather charming and absurd mating of a sorel snow boot and some chuck taylors, the Snow Rover waterproof and insulated boots feature lightweight (but surprisingly warm – rated for -25 degrees) KEEN.Warm™ technology -  an anti-microbial insulation technology that is created from charcoal bamboo. Constructed of a leather and canvas upper, I love the soft faux shearling lining, and I think these boots look even better in person than the picture below suggests. These outdoor performance boots also incorporate the KEEN.DRY™ waterproof breathable membrane that let’s vapor out without letting water in. They sound pretty bad ass for challenging climates, right? Men can choose between dark shadow/warm olive (pictured below) or potting soil/silver mink. The Snow Rover is available in sizes 7 – 14, with many 1/2 sizes, too. Don’t worry, ladies, Keen has snow boots for you, too.

Supermaggie Men’s Flock T-shirt: let the migration begin

Monday, November 9th, 2009

The indie superstars at Supermaggie say they see flocks of grackles, blackbirds and starlings migrating through their area every year, headed north. Clearly their migratory bird experiences provide the inspiration for the great Flock print, pictured below on a men’s Army colored t-shirt. Made of 100% cotton which has not been pre-shrunk, the unisex blanks run true to size. Looking for the Flock on something besides a tee? Ladies Flock apparel is also available. BirdFight has also been out watching the birds.

Men’s Hydra Killah Tee: soot snakes on steroids

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

This is a pretty sweet-ass new tee from the indie style lords over at Sharp Shirter. Printed on a dark grey 100% cotton American Apparel shirt blank, this tee features an epic battle about to unfold. A white kimono-robed female warrior bares her blade in preparation for killing the ascending giant sooty snakey demons. They seem to be a cross between something elemental, plus a giant moray eel, and maybe an old fashioned 4th-of-July soot snake. Like I said, generally bad-ass. A number of new stylish tee’s from Sharp Shirter are featured on Shana Logic, with Hydra Killah being my favorite. This is a men’s or unisex t-shirt available in sizes Small through XL. Get 10% off your entire order with code: birdfight (expires 9/30/2009)

Missing T-shirt- Bike thieves suck!

Monday, August 24th, 2009

Anyone who has had their bike swiped will appreciate this pretty hilarious flier which sends a message to one of the lowest types of thieves out there. So celebrated was the image the creator decided to put it up on Threadless and now you can grab a t-shirt of it. The funniest part of the story is the dude had actually locked his bike in an illegal area and it had been impounded…not stolen. The flier however still helps soothe the anger of the thousands of other unlucky folks who have their bikes nicked every day. It’s a real drag to lose what is potentially your main source of rapid transportation.

Nixon Newton- Power to the future

Monday, August 10th, 2009

Show off your love for the future, and the color red (most other colors are sold out sadly) with this geektacular watch from Nixon. The watch features an injected silicone band and hardened mineral crystal case, which will certainly get you lots of play with the coin operated animated ladies down at the arcade. The minimalist view port shows time with two simple dots, nothing fancy for the man of the future…you already know where the numbers are, no need to clutter that up.

Watch out for the Pecker!

Saturday, August 8th, 2009

It takes a real cock to wear this new trucker hat from the hatmasters at Goorin Brothers. The mighty rooster might just peck your eye out if you are not careful. Of course we enjoyed the embroidered side detail as well, in case there was any mistaking it for a hen.
