I had a shih-tzu named Spike when I was a shorty. Damm, I miss that dog to this day. Parents gave him away without me knowing.
Television show LOST has created an underground viral marketing campaign that kicked off at Comic-Con 2009, with comedian Paul Scheer and his black velvet fan art moment during the show’s infamous panel. Since that moment, the show has created what is easily one of the most intricate and in-depth fan appreciation marketing campaigns ever attempted. They will release 16 limited edition, hand-signed and numbered screen prints designed by some of the world’s top artists and graphic designers at their website DamonCarltonAndAPolarBear.com. Each poster has been revealed in a scavenger hunt, traveling through both reality and the virtual world. LOST has thrown parties at Club Bardot in Hollywood with DJ AM and Steve Aoki, coordinated with Crumbs Bakery in LA and NY for workers to wear Cupcake Dharma jumpsuits for a day, set up a book display at the University of Arizona featuring actual props from the show and had custom made instruments made for the band Fall Out Boy during a recent concert stop in Dallas, TX. Each of these small stunts lead fans to a website where the posters are sold, and the 1st buyer of each print is rewarded with a special prize.
Bape will be releasing the Tiger Sweat Stadium Jacket on October 3rd in US stores. The jacket comes in 4 colorways, with each color being limited to certain stores:
OooooWEeeee my Mac book can slide right in there. I’m about to customize an Incase. Fuck it.
Sexless and anonymous. That’s how Mismo founder Adam Bach would describe the current array of choices for work briefcases. Rather than sit and moan about it (like we’d do) he’s done something about it. To be exact, he’s done three things about it.
There’s a briefcase, document holder (pictured above) and a pouch bag. The latter is sure to offend the insecure out there – we can hear the cries of ‘it’s too effeminate’ already – but it’s a great solution for those days when you’ve got just enough stuff to justify a carrying device but not enough for a full on bag. All three bags are available from Mid-November at the usual retailers.
Finally we can give you a detailed look at one of the October 2009 Nike SB Quickstrikes – the Todd Bratrud designed “Brain Wreck” Nike SB Dunk Hi Premium. The shoe will be released soon at Familia Skateshop in Minneapolis. They are organizing a launch event along with an art show for the release. The afterparty will be done in cooperation with Plain Ole Bill. They also made some goodies to go along with the Dunk Hi, such as a skate deck. The Dunk Hi comes in a grey suede colorway, matching grey leather Swoosh, Brain Wreck written over the heel and pink accents. Further details come on the lining and insole.
Stopped by the Fool’s Gold office the other day after a swift DM from@catchdini[Nick Catchdubs]. He blessed me with a couple of tee’s & future plans for Fool’s Gold. These tee’s are available for sale right now. The duck with the baseball jacket is my fav. The DS on the jacket stands for Duck Sauce & you know I’m asking for extra Duck Sauce all the time. Plus it’s A-trak’s new single. Word to my man Leon on Curb your Enthusiasm. I’m feeling Duck Sauce -”aNYway” scroll thru the player & enjoy.
