Yo, so everybody want’s to know how our Vegas Trip was.  Well I’m not going to really go into detail with alot of these pics, but we had a blast.  The stores out there were very nice, and if you look closely, you might see some sneak peaks from these company’s fall lines.  Here we go.  So the hotel we stayed in was the Luxor.  For us this is the best bet.  This is where we stay every time we go to Vegas.  It’s a good price & the Hotel is immaculate.  We love it.  The first pic is of the inside of the Hotel, from the balcony right outside our room, we were on the 25th floor.  This hotel is crazy, it’s like a real Pyramid.  It has sideways elevators called inclinators.  Yeah that’s what I said.

So then we go get something to eat, I forget the name of the place, but it was nice, and we set at this little thingamajig with fire coming out of the water.  Ya’ll see Leo over there in the cut.  The inside looked like a cross between a bar, and a strip club, and a restaurant and a…you get the hint, it’s Vegas.

cimg0923.jpg

After that, we hit up all of the Sneaker/Streetwear spots out there.  Dirtbag was driving like a maniac, man that dude is a wild boy.  The first store we went to was Undefeated, we didn’t take pics the first time we went, but we ended up going back so you’ll see the Undefeated pics later.  The dope thing about the scene out there is that all these spots get along with each other and they big each other up.  When we went to Undefeated, they gave us a map with directions to get to Fruition.  So then we head over to Fruition, and they gave us a list of all of the boutiques in Vegas.  Color coded, addresses and directions.  Dope right, we need to take note of that.  So in Fruition we see the owners of Goliath in Harlem, they are real cool.  Fruition is a wild spot, it brings back soooo many memories of the stuff you had back in the day.  We also took a pic with the owners who were also very cool.

cimg0925.jpg cimg0926.jpg

After that we hit a couple spots on the list.  I forgot the names of the next three spots, but they were pretty dope, they all had there own flavor, one was a streetwear spot, the next was another streetwear spots but going it’s own way with the lines they carry, and then the last spot was a streetwear/consignment sneaker spot.   The killer is that Undrcrwn Fab Five shirt, I was gonna cop, but you see how big that joint is.  Couldn’t even do it.

cimg0929.jpg cimg0930.jpg

cimg0937.jpg

Then we head back over to Undefeated.  I couldn’t decide if I wanted that undftd x G Shock.  Then I decided, so i went back & copped it.  You only live once right.  Lol.  The store is ridiculous, it’s so clean, and they got heat.  But one thing that we noticed, we have just about the same product when it comes to kicks.  Oh yeah, the manager, is from Detroit.  We all over the world baby, gettin’ it in.

cimg0939.jpg

Then we go over to Epic shoes, it’s a real dope spot in the middle of the hood.  When we were driving over there, I see a store that caught my eye.  This store had a striking resemblence to my last name.  Lol.  Then we get over to Epic, they have Nike, Alife, BBC, & all that, & one of the owners is from the D.  Once again, we get it poppin’ all over the world yo.

cimg0940.jpg cimg0942.jpg

Then after that, we hit the town & just got drunk walking down the strip, and some other stuff, but that stays in vegas.  “That ain’t chocolate, that’s doo doo baby”  Lol!  That’s day 1, I’ll post day 2 & 3 in a couple of days.  BR, Holla @ us, it only gets better.  Peace!!!

February 21, 2008

What’s the Freakin’ Deal Yo!!!  This is a quick update from Rocksmith.  This is the stuff everybody’s been askin’ about so they brought it back another season.  I’ll start with the Kool Moe Dee Hoody.  This is a subtle all over print hoody that looks like the stars in the night sky, we got this in Black & Purple.  Check it out.

img_3913.jpg img_3915.jpg

The next hoody we have is the Rich Boy Hoody.  This is a dope hoody that has a couple different fabrics on it.  It has Cotton & Valuer.  The color combos are crazy.  Check ‘em out.

img_3909.jpg img_3911.jpg

Finally, to round out the Rocksmith shipment, we have the Allante Reversible Vest.  This is good for the upcoming Spring season because it might be warm, or it might be cold.  Pick your poison.  Vest’s are back, and it’s always good to feel like you got a two for one.  LOL!

img_3905.jpg img_3906.jpg

 img_3907.jpg img_3908.jpg

Aiight yo, I’m out.  Be on the lookout for the party on March 2, it’s gonna be crazy.  Marv Won, Mo Beats, Ken on the pics, El Cap doin’ a live custom, Phil & Shades doing live art installations and much more.  You might even see Ro jump on the tables.  All ages. Sky Club. Believe you me, you will see some of the flyest sneakers that you’ve ever seen before in your life.  A couple people said they aren’t even tellin’ us what they’re pullin’ out.  They just want to stunt.  You should be seing the flyer floating around in the next couple of days.  Stay fly, stay fresh, stay safe.  Peace.

February 16, 2008

What’s poppin’ people?  Sorry about the lack of updates in the last couple of days, because we got a lot of stuff in, but we were out in Vegas.  Thanks to our families for holding us down while we were gone.  The Magic show was off the chain as usual, & you already know how the BR crew gets down.  But we’ll get to that later, I have a lot of pics that we’ll definitely post up.  As far as this update goes, we’ve gotten a lot in this week, from Alife, Crooks & Nike.  We’ll jump this one off with Nike, you can never go wrong with Nike.  First up we have the “Safari” tech pack.  This is a quickstrike that we received that is very popular to say the least.  The colors & the textures on these 2 shoes are amazing.  A must see in person.  Check it out, don’t sleep.

img_3831.jpg img_3832.jpg

Next from Nike is the Blazer Low classic in black.  It’s almost like a tennis ball texture on the shoe, and the bottom is neon green.  Crazy!!!

img_3847.jpg

To round off Nike we have the Dunks.  We got two lows, and on Hi.  The Hi is the Ice metallic, this was originally supposed to come out in January but got pushed back to Feb.  We have gotten a good number of calls about these so don’t sleep.  We also got these down to a size 4 for women.  The lows are crazy too, I’m not sure of the story behind the lows, but they are the yellow/black and red/black with hemp, and the speckled soul. 

img_3843.jpg img_3844.jpg

img_3846.jpg

To keep going with the shoes, we’ll move on to AlifeAlife always come with the fire, creativity & innovation in design.  The first pack is the “Soda Pack”.  The green is for Sprite, the red & blue is for Pepsi, and the red is for Coke.  Bananas. 

img_3836.jpg img_3837.jpg

img_3838.jpg

Next we have the parachute pack, for obvious reasons, it’s made out of parachute material.  We have the red & black.  Check em.

img_3834.jpg img_3835.jpg

Last for the Alife shoes, we have the “Outrage” low.  These are crazy, this is for all you 90’s baby ladies.  I say ladies because we only got them in small sizes for ladies.

img_3839.jpg img_3840.jpg

img_3841.jpg img_3842.jpg

Now let’s get to the clothes.  Once again Alife is killin’ it.  I’m gonna just run through these because I am tired.  On a side note, please don’t question MOS about being tired & posting stuff up on the site.  To explain it to you people.  I, Roland Coit, provide the text to MOS for him to put up when he gets time to work.  So when I’m up at 4:00 am on Friday night/Saturday morning on Feb. 16 watching the replay of the celebrity allstar game on ESPN, & typing text to bring the streets up to date on what’s going on, MOS is probably at home sleep, snoring, & dreaming about Jessica Alba (side-side note from MOS: First off I don’t snore & second I was still celebrating my birthday at 4am, that’s why this update is a little later then normal).  When he get’s a chance to post the info up, he will. He does the best he can because he is a busy man.  Now we got some new Alife shirts, Look at the pics, Holla.

We got a couple of new Crooks hats & some Crooks crew neck rugby’s, they are oh so spicy, check ‘em out, I’m tired!!!

Just to let you guys know, we are getting into Denim, slowly but surely.  So for our first denim shipment we got the Crooks Chain Link Denim.  We’re just getting started & testing the waters.  Let us know what you think.

img_3895.jpg

Last but not least, We Finally got the Crooks Watches, we only got a couple so if you want one, you better call as soon as you see this because you don’t want to miss out.  The watches speak for themselves just look & enjoy.

img_3897.jpg img_3898.jpg

So long for now, come holla @ us if you can, we have a lot of stories from the Vegas trip that sound a lot better in person.  Shout out to Dirtbag, AZ, Dylan, Leo, the Puffer Red’s & Sol Munki Crews.  Good times, good times.  I’ll post pics up in a couple of days after I recover.  Thanks again to our families for holding the store down and running it like we weren’t even gone.  This stuff will be up on the webstore in a day or two, just be patient.  Until then you can call us & do phone order if you need to.  You’re gonna have to do that with Nike anyway.  I think that’s it, if not I’ll add it to the next update.  Stay Fly, Stay Fresh, Stay Safe.  Peace.

February 8, 2008

It’s BR, and we’re back in the house once again, we just got the February Nikes in.  So I’m gonna blog threw them real quick.  First we’ll start with the Men’s releases.  First we’ll start with the Dunks.  This is the Money Green, & Black colorway.  It’s similar to the the Dunk Lows from last month, with the colors on the back of the shoe, and the Black in the front.  We got these down to a size 4 for the ladies and the kids.  Also, this joint comes with Green laces.

img_3775.jpg

Next is the “Football Pack” Air Max 1.  This is the Black one with the Black & White Fatigue print on the back. The color schemes on this shoe is crispy.  (Be on the lookout for the White one coming in March).

img_3776.jpg

This is a “Don’t Sleeper”.  Meaning, when you call us next month looking for these, and we only have a size 8 & a 14, I won’t feel bad for you.  This is a court force, with basketball on the back.  Actual Basketball.  I almost pulled up for three when I pulled them out the box, LOL!  The sleeper on this shoe the net print on the back panel, and the strings that matches gold suede.  It’s subtle with the black & gray leather, but still turns heads with the back panel.  Also on a side note, we got these down to a size 4, for the ladies, and kids out there with the super small feet.

img_3778.jpg

To round out the mens shoes is a quickstrike that we just got in.  I know most of you have seen this shoe all over the net, well now it’s here for your purchasing pleasure.  This is the “Carnival Air Max 90″.  The colors make it look like an I.D.  What alot of people don’t know about this shoe is that it has the crispiest ice souls that I’ve seen since the Space Jam 11’s.  You gotta see these in person.

img_3777.jpg

Now on to the Ladies.  For the first time in a long time, we have more Ladies kicks then Men’s.  First it’s the Gray Suede Blazer Hi.  Gray & White together has always been one of my favorite combos, & the yellow laces just set this shoe all the way off.

img_3779.jpg

Up next we have the low top Blazer with the animal print on the back, (which you can’t see on this pick, but believe me it’s there).  This is an off white premium leather with the brown swoosh & accents, & the gum sole only on the front.  Crazy!!!

img_3780.jpg

This Court force is a pack with the Blazer low above.  Tan, Brown, & Pink, with Pony hair, and the Jean print on the tounge.  These are a must see in person & will go fast.  Don’t sleep.

img_3781.jpg

Now moving on to the dunks we have a classic colorway in the Midnight Blue & White.  The crazy thing about this shoe is the Pink laces that don’t match anything on the shoe, but actually look good when they’re in.  So many guys want this shoe, but it’s strictly for the ladies.  We also got this crazy, crazy, crazy colorway.  Mint Green, Burgundy & Black with a speckled sole.  This also comes with Mint Green laces.  I know some people are gonna by these just for the laces.  Check em out.

img_3782.jpg img_3783.jpg

Next we have the more feminine looking Blazer, this design is becoming very popular amongst our women customers.  They say it’s because it more “Girly”, and the paisley print detail is stunning. 

img_3784.jpg

Last but not least, we have the “St. Patty’s Day Air Stab”.  This comes early because in previous years, alot of the holiday kicks ended up coming in after the actual Holiday.  So this time they’re sending them out early so you can be prepared for the actual Holiday.  We also got these up to a size 12, for men that would be equivalent to a 10.5, Ya dig?  These are Cold Blooded!!!

img_3785.jpg

Alright people, I’ll holla at ya’ll on the next go round.  Just to let everybody know, we’ve locked down a spot for our 1 year anniversary party, it’s gonna be at the Sky Bar in Royal Oak.  Right down the street from the store.  We’re getting the flyers done up as we speak, so be on the lookout for that.  We gone do it Extra Big, it’s a Celebration!!!  We will be out in Magic from Sunday the 10th thru Wednesday the 13th, but it’s business as usual.  Come threw, Ro’s Wife, Moms, & Sister will be there holding the spot down for us, or you may see Ricks Wife, it just depends on when you come in.  I don’t know what’s going on with these watches, they just keep telling us that they will be in soon.  So if they come while we are at Magic, they will be put up, and sold when we get back.  So don’t worry, be happy.  Pray for us that we make it back & forth from Vegas safely.  Las Vegas here we come…And what happens in Vegas, Stay’s in Vegas.  Lol!!!   Stay Fly, Stay Fresh, Stay Safe.  Peace.

February 6, 2008

Whatupdoe? (That’s a Detroit thing for ya’ll that don’t know what’s up).  We gone pop it off this time with the New Crooks & Castles Spring 1 Delivery.  I know it’s Cold as you know what outside here in Michigan, but these tees are ridiculous, & you know that Crooks is bringin’ it.  The first tee is the “Gun Club” tee in 2 colors.  White & Mint.  You’ll see that they are sticking to a couple of color schemes for this drop.  The Nicks/Mets color way, and a couple other off the wall colors.  Check em out.

img_3761.jpg

Next is the one I know we will sell out of pretty quick, it’s the “Gotti” tee in 3 colors, white, red, & black.  Everybody has been calling about the “Medusa w/ the Bandana on her face” tee, well here ya go, Bong!

img_3763.jpg

Next up is the Stack tee, in black & white, and red & tiffany blue. 

img_3764.jpg

Moving on, is the the “Death Dealers” tee, it’s the Grim Reaper riding on a horse going to do what he does best, LOL!  The colorways, once again, are Sick.

img_3766.jpg

After that we have the “Crook’X” tee, it’s like a Hieroglyphic Skeleton smoking a square.  Classic Crooks.

img_3767.jpg

The last tee out of the Spring order is the “Demon” tee, it’s just the Crooks Logo with Horns, a tail, & a pitchfork.  In three colorways.

img_3768.jpg

The sweatshirts from Crooks, as everybody knows, are High Quality.  The two joints that came with this order, are the “Stack Pullover” hoodie, and the “Gotti Zip-Up” Allover print hoodie.  The “Stack Pullover” is dope cause it’s clean on the front, it just has a Crooks & Castles logo small on the front, and the back is the full stack print.  The “Gotti Zip-Up” is going to speak for itself.  Just listen.

img_3773.jpg img_3774.jpg

To round out this update, we got a couple kicks in from Creative Rec.  The one for the Men is the “Skittles” Cesario Lo, & the one for the Ladies is the “Grape” Cesario Lo.  Check ‘em out.

img_3758.jpg img_3756.jpg

Aiight, we outta here, till next time.  I’ll hit ya’ll with a be on the lookout paragraph on the next update.  Stay Fly, Stay Fresh, Stay Safe, Peace.
