Streetwear The Book by Steven Vogel

Steven Vogel’s solo book project is now upon us. “Streetwear The Book” is Steven’s first solo book project which is sort of a collection of friends and colleagues who have been influential to the culture and sub-cultures involved in streetwear. As Steven states it is not another “fashion guide, fashion bible, or who’s who” in street culture. The book goes into territories such as personal stories and short interviews that expand on the “fears, thoughts, goals, and opinions about streetwear” of those involved in the book. The book is 352 pages long loaded with colorful images of everything related to street culture. The release is set on May 9th and will be available at places where you already know should be carrying this book. If not, just hit up your local spot and ask about it.

Jeff Staple Video Interview with BKRW

Jeff Staple Video Interview with BKRW

BKRW recently had a sit down with Jeff Stape of Staple Design during Bread & Butter Berlin. The interview was broken down into 3 parts involving: Part 1: Childhood, Origins, and Roots… Part 2: Street Culture, Internet, Nike… Part 3: Staple Anniversary, Tribute, Strategy… Jeff Staple definitely raised a very interesting points regarding Staple Design’s existence. Although each and every piece that comes off the drawing board of Staple has a pertinent message, only a few will care to find out that meaning. It’s our belief that the ability to derive meaning reflects a more fulfilling experience. BKRW has always done a great job with their interviews and this one is no exception. The quality of interviewee’s and the questions asked should leave you more satisfied knowing you can walk away enlightened. Essentially BKRW and the people they interview are able to offer up an accurate portrayal of what’s going on within this culture leaving you without the guess work. Info: Slamxhype

Oakley x Supreme Sunglasses

Oakley x Supreme Sunglasses

Supreme will be working with Oakley to release the classic Frogskins sunglasses. The sunglasses will come in four colors as well as one custom Supreme pattern. They will be available at Supreme stores worldwide coming April. Here’s more information from the folks at Supreme. In 1975, Jim Jannard started Oakley in his garage lab with $300 and the idea of making products that work better and look better than anything else out there. His first success came in the form of a new motorcycle hand grip with a unique tread and rider-friendly shape. Top pros took notice of the product’s “Unobtainium” material that actually increased grip as the rider sweats. Next up for the motocross market was Jannard’s wildly successful O Frame goggle, with its lens curved into a perfect arched cylinder to give riders a clear and wide peripheral view. Many versions of eyewear followed and today, world-class cyclists such as Greg LeMond, Lance Armstrong, and Scott Tinley demand the performance and protection offered by Oakley products. The Oakley Frogskins were first released in 1986 and quickly became a symbol of that decade’s surf and skate culture. Worn by legend Tom Carrol, Frogskins epitomized the surf lifestyle.
