Mike Giant at Nomad.

Check out pics from the launch of the Nomad at Dopefiend.



Mike Giant week in Toronto ended off in style, with an opening reception party at Nomad on Saturday May 14th. Recent works by Mike Giant featuring his Cholo-LA-Graf style, showed off his famed steady hand and tattooing prowess.
Original artwork was for sale, as well as limited edition t-shirts, available in both white print, and an ultra-awesome gold foil! (The gold version unfortunately was not for sale.) Grind magazine's latest issue was also available for the taking.
Though the artwork was sparse, Giant fans didn't seem to mind: the party overflowed into the streets, capping the night off with an impromptu turntablist scratch battle!

Bapesta.Update.(Vintage Kicks)

Vintage Kicks, the greatest online source for bapestas. They haven't updated much lately, probably busy with their newest venture, Flight Club, but have done so today with two new snakeskin versions.

Drooghi. Gimme 5.

Drooghi have full stock of the latest Gimme 5 Collection. And to launch the ne range are having a promotion, every Gimme 5 order gets 5 pounds off! For a limited time. Gimme 5 is highly underated in my opinion, massive focus on detail and quality from the Stussy UK and Hideout crew, and this years range is no exception, some great sweats and tee's and even selvedge denim.



We mentioned on our last drooghi update of their great array of interviews, remember to check them all out in their features section here.

The Hundreds Summer 2005.

The Hundreds are back again! There stuff just keeps getting better and better each season. I would quite literally wear anyone of these tee's! This season, the collection will be available for just 2 weeks online or till stocks last, then only available online through Digital Gravel. Of course their store stockists will be there to support them too as usual.








No Pattern.

No Pattern. The design source behind The Brilliance, have updated their portfolio with some great stuff! They truley have done some great jobs with some great companies. Bigger things on the horizon too. Check it all out here. There's illustraion work in their amourey that will blow your mind.

Tiffany SB Dunk Samples.

Hypebeast has spotted samples on ebay. If you can't wait till next month and fit a sz 9. Rumours are that these are going to be very hard to obtain, meaning of course the usual ebay prices and chaos. We'll try and give you as much information over the next few weeks about the shoe to ensure you all have a chance to get a pair. personally all hype aside, I actually really like the fabric and colour mix on these.

East Touch Magazine(HK).

Theres been a few posts lately on forums regarding this issue of East Touch. They have a great profile on the Mr Shoe Event, but also some great Adidas release info including those great Oddity's! But the all white Bapekick's are killing it!
