Modern Explorer Lifestyle…

Sunday, March 11th, 2012

There are times when Ralph Lauren designers knock an entire series out of the park. This spring ‘LO blue label collection called Modern Explorer would be one of those times. If God is in the details then these glorious garments are heaven sent.

After I peeped the series online I had to holler at my PRL gurus on the TWits…

These pieces definitely remark 88 Keys style to me. But I actually first saw these joints on Just Blaze back at the Brisk Bodega ‘Star Wars’ event last month. We already profiled the embroidered dragon s/s knit and identified it as an heirloom I.T. but take a look at some other joints from the series. Everything is FIYAHVERKX!!!

Patched up rugby with elbow pads and reinforce stitching shoulder yoke.

Flag patch polo knit with toggle neck closure.

Oh my lord.

Another s/s knit with dragon screen print.

Details, details, details. I need all of these joints, but I can’t afford to put a stack down on cotton schmatte. This series is taking shit back to the hustlers and the boosters.

At least I got the aspiration if not the determination or the resignation.

Dragons Eat Candy…

Saturday, March 10th, 2012

The dragon will not sleep in 2012 and neither will the machine called Jordan Brand. Are you fuxing with these white/red ‘Candy Cane’ 14s? After the hype of the Galaxy Foams this release is tame and mundane.

You can pick these up for a modest $160 without even batting an eyelash on a lineup. Most of the hypebeasts are stacking their chips now to copp the Yeezy2 in April.

GALAXY QUEST…

Sunday, February 26th, 2012

After all that strum and drang I was kicking about camping out hardbody for the Nike Foamposite ‘Galaxy’ sneakers I ended up missing the release. I chased the shoes all around NYC, but even for someone like myself who documents campouts and lineups I couldn’t make the connects to secure the kicks.

Plenty of people were rewarded for their efforts tho’ and I think the reward I received was all the love that the campers have for the kid. I fux with them too. [ll]. So here’s the final installment of DP’s Galaxy Quest…
