To accommodate the hit single I still love H.E.R by Teriyaki Boyz featuring Kanye West, Bape has come out with a t-shirt that shows them cruising in an 80’s classic ride. This song pays tribute to 80’s Hip Hop and R&B and marks the fist time Kanye has featured on a Teriyaki Boyz track. Can we expect more collaboration work to come, we’ll just have to sit tight and see, but as for the t-shirt, you can be the judge for that one.
If you missed the music video, you can catch it here.

“January 10th, 49 B.C. – Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon invading Rome in violation of Rome’s laws, causing a civil war. “Alea iacta est,” Caesar cried, as his army advanced past the waters of the Rubicon, meaning, “The die has been cast.”
More than two thousand years later, Daniel St. George releases his new body of work entitled “Burning Bridges.” Just like Julius Caesar, St. George comes to grips with his own difficulties with friendships, love and life, ultimately making decisions that will never be undone and crossing his own Rubicon.
Stussy presents St. Georges’s “Burning Bridges”, along with the new body of work, St. George will be creating a limited edition t-shirt exclusively for Stussy SF, which will be for sale at the store and it also comes with a 32-page magazine. There will also be an exhibition for his artwork and the opening reception for “Burning Bridges†will be held at Stussy SF at 1409 Haight Street on Saturday the 27th of January from 6 pm – 10 pm.

Fragment design is one of those design companies that I enjoy seeing product from, they work on anything that shows interest to themselves, which makes their products high quality with great detailing. For those that check out Hiroshi’s blog on Honeyee, they should know that he is very interested in bikes. So taking a hobby and making product, Fragment has come up with a design for a bike frame and I must say the colors are slick. So the next question is, what will they try next?
