Wolf&Pack in Amsterdam is the illest sort of boutique out there. Just as I have said previously about the kind of retail stores with which we look to get involved. Julian, Matt, Gabe and crew love the shop that they all take part in running. They all have a passion for what they are involved in and it shows through the store.
Plus the store is in Amsterdam! From sketches to bed room stock rooms look at how things grow. You can now buy Award Tour at Wolf&Pack for the next time that you are in the Netherlands, don't sleep familia.
Stay Safe Fam.
Etiquette is Most Important
Friday July 18th 2008 11:04 pm EST
My man Josh has put together a really great project over at Street Etiquette. By combing a whole bunch of elements together including high fashion, street wear, and the perspective from which our generation sees it today and you have a recipe for success. Make sure that you head over to S.E. so that you are up on the latest and greatest and have your ear to the streets.
I'll be at the next NYC meet up fam! No worries.
Stay Safe Fam.

Abakus Takeout, AT Philly Invasion!
Saturday July 12th 2008 10:24 am EST
Early on this week I stopped through a dope little take out spot downtown in Philly. With McNally and Mo Ali along for the trip we stopped through Abakus Takeout. Now what may appear to be a normal Chinese take out store from the front is actual an extremely well thought experience in retail.
Store front:
Store interior:
No egg rolls here.
Take note anyone who is looking to open a retail store in this day and age. People are too eager to throw together a hastily built shop that is hard wood paneled flooring and some random bits of Ikea furniture. People don't put thought into what they are going to present as their own retail experience and quite frankly its boring.
Abakus has direction, focus, and theme. Its a shop that when you step inside of you will immediately feel at comfort. Take a walk down off South St. and experience some goodness in China town where you would least expect it.
Check out how Abakus throws a grand opening party.
My kind of people absolutely.
Shouts to Ki and Fu over at Abakus some of the best people you'll meet in retail for sure.
They have a full fun of the Award Tour Summer line. Don't sleep fam!

CONTRIBUTERS
Hover over pictures for description.
LOCHNESS - The man behind the Award Tour. Proud child of the 90's, probably
watching Doug and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles instead of designing.
CRE-HATED - Cre has being rocking the finest in streetwear since he
crawled over the wall of his crib as a child in Brooklyn. He still
hasn't recovered from the fall, but his style and words are still
above everyone's head.
ELLINGTON - He's bored of streetwear and all of you who think you're
fresh and he's still above most everyone in the game. Coming to you
from Temple University, El is the voice of reason and syndicated humor
amongst the nonsense and hype.
ARC - The man with a microphone, a musical genius that resides among
us mortal beings. Off appearing in the pages of the Source somewhere.
KING D - Reporting live and loud from Brooklyn, Demitri quite simply
says it how it occurs. No nonsense, no hype, and no sugar coating, I
feel sorry for the person or brand who comes under his verbal abuse.
JUICE - If you've seen the movie than you'll soon understand where this
name is derived from. Just like Tupac, Juice's personality is one that
you simply can't contain. Entertainment for the world and beyond.
