Essentials: Nick JosephPhotographer, Contributor & Blogger

January 12, 2012Styleby Robert Marshall35396 Views

Blogger, photographer and all-around awesome dude, Nick “NJE” Joseph recently sat down with Hypebeast to explore his daily essentials. The co-curator of the well-received “Under the Radar” photo exhibition with Stussy and Heel Bruise, NJE has worked with iconic brands like Oakley and Element, and is currently running the online lifestyle editorial The Combined with fellow cool cat Marcus Troy. Spilling the contents of his Nike Sportswear Cheyenne 2000 Backpack on the ground, we see a wholesome collection of necessities including a Moleskine New Era notepad, Panasonic GF1, Altoids, Nike X Bodega Footscapes, and a pair of Oliver Peoples frames. Be sure to check out NJE’s Tumblr as well for a look into his latest photos.

    That supreme hat is 54$ i’m pretty sure it’s not the price that’s the problem, it’s the fact that it’s shit colored…Bodega’s are tight though

    Clothing shouldn’t be about the price or what others think. It’s about expressing YOUR OWN personal style. I could never rock that, but if he can more power to him!

    Ok. You must be really fun. I wish I could hang out with a jealous loser who has nothing better to do but talk crap on people they do not know on the internet. Your life must be really awesome and amazing. Just returning the favor!
