As winter squeezes of its last hurrahs I’m pulling out a ‘Fit for a chilly trans-seasonal night. I want to rock something clean and futuristic for a date night with chocolate Snowflake.

The jacket was a gift from a friend who grew out of 2X pieces, but he kept his stock immaculate. Polo Sport was such a dope brand at this point with their superior technical materials and cutting edge designs.

The jacket is lightweight and breathable but also incredibly warm. The water repellent shell is the bonus for working thru these oncoming spring showers.

The dirty snow camo print shirt from Royal Premium was a Marshall’s pickup. A nice little shirt for $18 bucks and the Levi’s 501s in anthracite weren’t too bad for $28 either.

“You think you know the history of New York Hip Hop? You really don’t know jack until you talk to Jessica Rosenblum. Hear her talk about her role in opening the downtown NYC nightlife scene to Russell Simmons, Lyor Cohen, the Beastie Boys and LL Cool J. Listen as she shares about her role in making a then unknown Sean “Diddy” Combs into a household name. Learn as she walks us through what really happened that fateful night at the tragic CCNY event and why she wasn’t responsible. Marvel at how she decided to build Funk Master Flex into the brand that he is today. Take in her close and meaningful relationship with the late, great Chris Lighty. We only scratched the surface as to this woman’s integral role in contributing to this culture, but this episode’s lessons is an important and mostly overlooked in this thing we call rap.

PLUS: Dallas Penn shares how he single handedly broke the Internets with his ingenious execution of Pologate.”

The first ever sneaker culture webseries kicked off this week via SneakerNews and the Complex Media Network. The series is called ‘Ace Of Customs’ and it pits three sneaker customizers against each other in a timed competition to see who can create the best looking shoe around a joint theme.

The premiere episode was filmed at SneakerCON in NYC and that was also the theme to be placed on the sneakers. The sneaker all the customizers worked on was the LeBron XI ‘Gamma Blue’

If you follow me on Instagram you know I’ve been bigging up this site callde Get The LO. They are selling Polo Ralph Lauren I.T.’s at prices better than my coupon clearance deals at Macys.

The best part is that Get The LO has access to everything on the PRL website. That means there are heatrocks you can copp which won’t make it to any retail installation.

I peeped this vest on the website and placed my order for it with Get The LO.

Just from studying the RLX camo pattern I knew the vest was gonna be in sick rhythm with the ARC Trooper Foamposites.
