Harris […]
MNM Vintage
There is nothing like shopping for vintage. That feeling you get when you find something that no one else has, it becomes an addiction. You walk down the street and you know you are wearing something with history, a story, and it’s an item that no one else has. The vintage streetwear scene is booming […]

GEAR TO THE STREET: Summer Scum
Coming from a self-proclaimed artistic background myself, it dawned on me about a week ago (free Bobby Shmurda & the whole GS9) that I haven’t had the most opportunities to speak on my behalf about the creative thoughts I’ve had in the past thirteen years or so. But luckily, a little recent focus and self-motivation […]

I attended stylish peep Hayoner’s Eye Create, Kletband launch event a few weeks ago and he hooked me up with his whole line. As soon as I came home I tried everything on and I was obsessed, for the first time ever a full set of mens clothes fit me like a glove. I texted […]

Designer Boyz
A few months ago, I heard about Designer Boyz…. I checked out a few of their YouTube videos and for a split second thought I was listening to an old Cash Money Millionaire record.
