123KLAN

January 29, 2009

Had lunch with our french buddies Scien and Klor who form the dopest graffiti duo from France. We went to Bofinger on University St. which, in my opinion, make the most delicious poutines. You might recognize some of the stuff 123klan has worked on. Having worked with big labels like Stussy  and Nike Sportswear to smaller, more local labels like Rated Rookies and Mighty Healthy,  their portfolio seems to be never ending…Now, if you’re downtown, I suggest the oh-so reknown BBQ chicken sandwich with a poutine on the side @ Bofinger’s.

One of my favorite labels, who will, in my heart, always remain classic…hopefully, has released their 09 spring summer collection. Bring on the creme, burgundys, khaki’s, the tonals… I’m more than ready! I’m just glad the Atelier de Creation et de Production didn’t pick a fucking fruity lookin redhead like last season, nohomo.

Bruxe & Brixton

January 22, 2009

St-Henri is one of those neighborhoods that you will discover some of the most random yet “rad-est” things. As Kelly and I were parting from the Bruxe/Brixton booking, we saw a very sad scenery lay out in front of us, a bike who’s seen better days and witnessed the downside of time was sitting outside, rusting under an army of snowflakes,  of some dilapidated crack & needle house. But look further and you will find, in an immense loft building , people a little more familiar to us. Housing such brands as Wesc, Sixpack, Fuct, Supra, Bruxe & Brixton, the edifice is discretely hidden at the edge of St-Henri.

On to Brixton and Bruxe, Oli and Mer (Bruxe, Brixton, Lifetime) who’ve always had a penchant for combining visual harmony to functionality, definitely elevated their own Bread & Butter to a new standard…Not only have they multiplied the range of their collection of bags and luggage, but they’ve now added pocket accessories (wallets, traveling cases) satisfying traverlers to accoutrement enthusiasts alike. I can hardly wait to take out my bike and whip out that new messenger bag that has long been roaming around everyone’s ear, I got to see it for the first time today…Big up!
