ON & BEYOND

Was down in NY to shoot for the MTexperience. Can’t reveal the happenings just yet, but here are some candids from the weekend. Big thanks to Marcus, Charles, IZ & Sarah Kim for a fun 2 days.

Apologies for the lack of updates for the passed month, but I promise there alot of great things to come…notably some of the actual work I did in Japan…

It’s always a pleasure to go to New York; I’ll be there til monday for a very exciting project – more on that later… Those who have my contact info, let’s grub.

Had the pleasure of taking a peak at the upcoming Pendleton Fall/Winter 2011 collection with the OTH crew. Everything is looking great, I’m especially feeling the Shetland crews, which are not pictured but the swatch of melange wool is a little foreshadow of what’s to come.

I’ve been getting alot of emails requesting for prints of some of my photos…Ask and you shall recieve! Click the SHOP link for more info!

Developped in conjunction with Koki, the Buddy frame from Deluxe is an hommage to 50′s mogul: the wayfarer. In fact, the S/S collection that is set to release conveys everything that is jazz, blues & Muddy Waters. While I’m eager yet unallowed to reveal photos of my trip to the Deluxe/Bedwin offices, these are little souvenir Hue kindly offered me; you’ll have to pick up the next issue of Inventory to peek behind the scenes!

The Special Force Boot (SFB) Chukka from NSW takes some inspiration from the US Army Jungle boots of the 1970′s. While the nylon and suede exterior resemble the influencors, Nike have replaced the RO-SEARCH sole from the 70′s with their own NIKE FREE soles giving it that sportswear factor. I wanna thank Claire from NSW for getting these out to me as they will come quite useful when braving the harsh canadian weather.

They should be available at your local Quickstrike Accounts in a Dark Obsidian or Tan colorway.

One of my favorite shops when I was in Tokyo, was hoping I would find some scraps of the Gyakusou collection…but it was long sold out. I did however find some great cottonduck workpants by Head Porter Plus which will later be photographed and showcased on an upcoming edition of I WISH THEY MADE THIS FOR GIRLS.
