So this weekend I made a last-minute decision to check out Spike Lee’s huge “Brooklyn Loves Michael Jackson” event. Coming up on wash week, I figured it would be a good time to rock my new Stuyvesants tee. As soon as I got to the park I started catching random stares from people. At first, I attributed it to the usual doppelgänger, ‘you look familiar comments’ I’ve been getting from people since high school (#SMH). But then some dude came up to me asked about my shirt. A few minutes later another dude came up to me & asked to take a picture of me; er um — the shirt. Then a few ladies came up and inquired about it as well. This pretty much continued throughout the entire day. Needless to say, it seemed folks were really eying my shirt. Totally unexpected — but the best part about it was having a chance to put a few new people on to The Stuyvesants record. Hopefully, they’ll actually end up checking it out.

The project has been growing in a really organic way since we released it. People have been finding out about through all different types of outlets from twitter, to radio shows to plain ole word-of-mouth. 3 months later there still seems to be a good amount of people just now discovering it and showing love. That’s something neither me nor Darien ever expected. If you’ve mentioned the record to anybody at all — Thank You.

Anyways, I say all that to say that we’ve finally got a store; albeit a small store, set up for the Stuyvesants’ tees. Check it out here and maybe pick up the new shirt while you’re at it. If you catch a couple of stares from people you don’t know, make sure you put them on!

Thought this was kinda interesting. I wouldn’t wear them, but still…

The January relase of the SELECT PACK take some of the most iconic moments and characters from the Star Wars saga and bring them to life accross five shoes, tee and the Superstar Track Top.

So it looks like Nike has decided to do a mashup of Kobe’s Hyperdunks and the Nike McFly’s from the back to the future movie. This sneaker mashup fad gets really annoying at times, but i have to admit that these are actually pretty of cool. More pics below.

Muji is coming to the New York Times building next Friday (5/30/2008).
I will be there without a doubt.
