Desiree Elyda x Primitive Video

Primitive has done it yet again... they've partnered up with up with another hottie, Desiree Elyda this time, for an upcoming collaboration. As with previous models, it's probably a safe assumption that a small collection will be released with some T's and possibly decks, posters, etc. Enjoy the video.

FINALLY! The Nixon x Gumball 3000 Magnacon

The watch that has alluded me for weeks finally shows it's face... and it's epic. If you don't know about the Gumball 3000 or Nixon, please use the links to educate yourself. Enjoy.

Don't call it a comeback...

The New York Times wrote and interesting article recently regarding the resurgence of watches among the younger generations.

I'm sure everyone knows people who primarily check the time when they need on their cell phone, ipod, laptop, etc. Watches began to lose popularity and appreciation as technology improved and became increasingly portable. Over the last few years the technology driven youth generations have begun to take an appreciation for fine timepieces as fashion statements and methods of expression similar to any accessory.

The article is right on point with my opinion regarding watches for the past several years. I love that this is becoming a mainstay in the fashion world for those in the know.

Weapons for the Zombie Apocalypse


With the Zombie apocalypse impending, it is essential to be ready and well-equipped. Thanks to KA-BAR and Dead On, essential multipurpose tools/weapons are now readily available for those who wish be prepared. KA-BAR's line of Zombie Killer knives is specifically designed for chopping the undead at close range. Dead On's Annihilator may not necessarily be designed for killing the undead, but it will make your old crow-bar go into the corner and cry itself to sleep. The Annihilator is designed for destruction and has a board straightener, nail-puller, demolition axe, hammer, chisel, wrench, and bottle opener - all in a glorious, handheld, undead-decapitating form. Are you ready for the end of the world?

Nixon x Gumball 3000 Unit


Last year Nixon made a pair of sick collaboration watches exclusively for the Gumball 3000. They did a rubber player and a run of 300 drivers-only 51-30's. This year they have done it again. The watch available to the public is a black/gold version of Nixon's Unit and as a prize to those who win the "sprint of gumball" award they made custom co-branded Magnacons. Check out the Unit below, and if you stumble upon a picture of one of these rare Magancons shoot me a link in the comments.

Jonas Bevacqua of LRG Found Dead Today

There are not a lot of words to be said. Jonas was an innovator, pioneer, and influence. He helped make streetwear accessible. LRG is a glorious gate-way drug to the world of street fashion and Jonas it's master chemist. Love it or hate it the world has lost a creative mind today, one who had an impact on many people. Rest in peace, Jonas. Thank you for the happiness and the t-shirts. You will be missed.


Tribute from Bobby Hundreds; I echo his sentiment.
Hypebeast also had a conversation with him earlier this month.
Finally, hear his thoughts. Be inspired. (below).

Zac Brown Band x James Taylor - Colder Weather/Sweet Baby James

Zac Brown Band came to San Diego today and rocked the house! They are great live. I have to admit I was skeptical about them going in, but I left a fan. Here is a video of ZBB at the ACM awards playing with icon James Taylor, one of my favorite artists.
