Seems I can never get enough houndstooth. The classic pattern always seems to catch my eye, and Volcom has provided me with the perfect around the house fall wear. These slippers will add a touch of classic style to your under appreciated  over worked  souther extremities.

Volcom- Bedroom Slippers

This stunning black floor length dress is a knock out! And being made of 100% bamboo jersey means you will be looking super fine while being gentle on the environment. Unbeatable. This dress has a nice v-shaped gathered neckline, and super sexy halter straps that cross over through a bamboo ring at the back. Made in the USA.

Price: $199.00
Kenai: Bamboo ring gown

Man this is one barbaric nudist. What is up with the bird hate pal? Did he poop on your nude shoulder? How about you try putting on some clothing…This wins weirdest t-shirt design of the day and comes from the t-shirt mega store 2KSHIRTS, who have their fair share of weird and fun shirts, by some well known designers.

2KSHIRTS- Eating a Bird

This lovely light-weight women’s hoody is a charmer. Available in the colors grape or candy (pink), and construced of soy organic cotton, the fabric is comfortable stretch jersey. What I like best is the nearly invisible marsupial pouch for hand warming. This hoody has a sleeker look due to that, yet you do not have to give up the usefulness of the front pocket. Currently on sale.

Price: $61.50
Earth Friendly Goods: Soy hoody

This is a great hoody for traveling! I am smitten with the silver airliner print, and the claim of a built in inflatable neck pillow, as well as a snap out blind fold. Dang, you will be traveling like a rock star minus the entourage! Of more import - the hoody does have built in earplugs, and an internal mp3 pocket, as well as marsupial hand pockets. Burton maintains the airline theme through out the garmet, and seems to have really thought about features that will make your trip a little easier. 80% cotton and 20% polyester, choose from black or gray heather.

Price: $99.95
Back Country: Burton Sleeper hoody

Made of 100% organic cotton jersey, this 3/4 sleeve henley top is charming and sweet. It’s also going to be perfect for layering as the winter season approaches. Colored light blue with a slightly brighter blue thread on the overstitched parts, it’s the dragon fly and grasses print on the left side (with a small and understated MP logo) that makes this tee stand out.

Mission Playground: Devon 3/4 sleeve henley

Ok that header was a direct quote from Jimmy3way who dropped this bomb of a link for perhaps the coolest helmet I’ve seen in a while. No flashy crappy paint and graphics, just a cool carbon finish. I really dig the inner blast shield to help block the sun. Jim speculates they may even be bulletproof…carbon outside Kevlar inner shell. I don’t even have a bike anymore, but I’d consider buying one of these to wear to the office. $1300 is a bit much to pay for a hat, however if you have to drive through Iraq to get to work you might consider it…

Price- $1300
Schuberth- S1 Carbon

Here is a nice basic tee for the ladies constructed of 100% bamboo fibre, which is renowned for it’s softness and antibacterial properties, as well as it’s environmental sustainability. This tee sports raw edges for a modern feel, and is screen printed with a lotus flower on the right front. Available in either black or olive, better hurry as they are on sale.

Price: $10.00
Luna Lotus: bamboo lotus tee

I must confess I simply love the Mishka line of shirts. They are always hilarious and brutal, and much of the time offensive. This particular one touches my heart, as I had a few run ins with Nazi Punks back in my gory (not glory) days of Punk rock. Mishka is putting all you retards on notice, that they are coming for you. Check out this big fella’s helmet which has a nod to the good old original Nazi haters Jello and company. Keep up the fight brave punk rock bears of Mishka, we support you.
