[PRPS_2front.jpg]

Love my PRPS, for my money they have the best denim detailing in the game. If your going to spend the money on expensive jeans this is it. Been a fan since day one and the new collection still has what I need.

Louis Vuitton Men's Spring/Summer 2010



New shapes, new shades, new signatures. Louis Vuitton reintroduces the Taiga leather goods in re-invented styles that have a subtle duality - spontaneity, versatility and luxury at the finest; these pieces embodies a long tradition of Louis Vuitton's savoir-faire.
Keeping pace with the urban life, new Taiga bags present variations on the messenger - simple, stylish and body-friendly shapes that encapsulates what men want now. Other desires, other designs: an oversize zippered tote with subtle retro references; a spacious shopper; and a suitcase with a shoulder strap for business trips; two supple briefcases with zippered fronts for the office.

Vitrahaus: A Building With a View, and a View, and a View, and a View



Vitra, a Swiss furniture manufacturer, recently completed the Vitrahaus as a presentation space for their collection. Yes, that's a real photograph. The building's comprised of 12 stacked "houses," and if you can believe it, the inside is no less stunning.

Designed by Herzog and de Meuron, Vitrahaus's large, house-shaped windows provide various views of the surrounding area during the day—it is located on the border of Germany and Switzerland, in the town of Weil am Rhein—but at night the focus flips, with the windows becoming glowing portals into which passersby can peer.

U-Boat 1001 Diver

u boat 1001 diver watch U Boat 1001 Diver Preview

I'll just say WOW, always loved divers and U-Boat delievers as usual.

This is a preview of one of the three new watches that will be presented by U-Boat at Baselworld next month. The 1001, before its unusual features are unveiled, will be presented to the public in an aluminium technological casket, visible only through a riveted port hole, reminiscent of a deep abyss. On opening the box, the unusual nature of the 1001 will be immediately apparent, starting with the 55-millimetre diameter grade 2 natural titanium box, with the distinctive position of the rim protection on the left, helium valve and titanium plate bearing the serial number. The face is easy to read because it has hours, minutes, seconds and the date at 4 o'clock. There are supernova pigments with beige, orange or blue, which make the white U1001 writing in relief stand out.

Lacoste Book by Assouline

Lacoste Book by Assouline

Since the birth of the iconic alligator – the world’s first clothing logo and the symbol of its French tennis-great namesake – in 1933, Lacoste has been nearly synonymous with sport. When champion René Lacoste put his fa­vored tennis uniform (a white piqué polo shirt) into production for the mass market, it revolutionized the standard stiff and starchy athletic attire, usher­ing in an era of sport styles that were as comfortable and functional as they were chic.
It is an aesthetic that continues to guide the brand today, with its expansion into casualwear, footwear, and accessories.
In an ingenious marriage of adjective and image, this book presents a full range of words and concepts synonymous with the storied brand: Heritage. Well-being. Cotton. Quality. Air. Lightness. Joie de vivre. Iconic. It is an encyclopedia of casually elegant style.
Those principles can already be seen in the design of the book, which comes in a series of colorways, each only featuring the iconic alligator logo on the cover. Look out for a release from Assouline later this month.

R.I.P. Stacks

Knew Stacks from the way he used to get around dude was in every hood doing his thing. If you knew him you understand how good a dude is was. Worked harder than most people I know grindin in any arena. Best thing is he knew how good he was and it was cocky it was confidence. From the streets to the fashion to the way he approached life he was a stand up dude and it why he was my man. This soldier will always be missed. Look out for Stacks music coming on iTunes thanks to his loved ones, and please understand he is what the game was missing.

Heinz Dip & Squeeze

Heinz Dip & Squeeze

Wish they would have had this when I was growing up...so much better than the packets! Hope the chinese food dude gets wind of this. This is sure to be a hood favorite.

We've been haters of traditional condiment packets for as long as we can remember, so we couldn't be more happy about the new Heinz Dip & Squeeze. Holding three times as much tomatoey goodness as a regular packet, the Dip & Squeeze offers two ways to open the bottle-shaped container: either lift at the top for squeezing the ketchup onto your food, or open at the bottom for dipping french fries, nuggets, and other finger-friendly foods.
