The Ringleaders is a collective of artists, designers, photographers, retailers, distributors, friends…who all show a love for the game of football. We play all year round, in the sun, in the rain, in the snow.
Jeremy worked on this crest for the RFC three years ago, it’s finally out, now we’ll be working on the new website soon. It’s gonna be beyond.
I don’t recall how I found this blog, but I’ve been following with a close eye for the passed 6 months or so. They basically blog about new products that are attractively branded. Here is one of the products featured by the website. Check it out here
Aside from ceo-ing a major distribution company (Handling brands like Penfield / WeSC / New Balance / Brixton / PF flyers), something most people don’t know about Jesse is that he has a University degree in photography. Over the weekend, he was at the Impact game, where Montreal prevailed over the White Caps in the USL finals. Here are some amazing shots he took…I’m trying to figure out how they came out like that.
Esther Stocker uses simple lines and shapes to create her one of a kind installations. ”Keep in mind that it’s much easier to make something built up, overdone, and clunky, than to make something clean, simple, and elegant.” I wonder if she was inspired by Unknown Pleasures on the first one…

The boys from LH headed to Wisconsin this summer for a very special project. While we don’t have any details of the expected collaborative bicycle, Scott sent me some photos of their trip down to the 30th state of the constitution. Knowing the dedication and vision that defines LH, the bicycle should come proper. More pics and info are available on their flickr page
When I was in Toronto this summer, I was in the search for Japanese magazines and discovered one I hadn’t ever seen before, I was used to the Street Jack, Cool Trans, Samurai…among others. But never seen this one before. While I was accustomed to the regular layout pages chocked up of products, fillers, and advertisement, HUgE felt much more substantial as I slowly flipped through its 145 pages to be exact. In other words, they’ve mastered what means to be aesthetically presentable while still maintaining a great focus on the products sharing the spotlight in their features. A person like I, who can’t read Japanese, just wants what is pleasing to the eye, which makes this magazine perfect for me and other fellow foreigners. I think this deserves a spot in my magazine shelf next to my Theme magazine’s and Visvim dissertations.
ps: where else would you see the names tenderloins, margiela, visvim & patagonia all in the same magazine…
The uglier they get the more i’ll love them. I’ve had these for three years now. wore them non stop for 2 full summers and half. They’ve reached the stage where the wear and tear looks perfect….not too much to the point of falling apart. Maura is working on a little project with these shoes, I’ll show pictures of her final results when she’s done. It’s pretty rad.
