Here's a sneak peek at the Mananoshe Gombe coat. One done, now just gotta do the other sizes.

Brrr.


We knew the snow would come. But we did not know it would come this hard. Luckily we got the right gear to keep you warm. Come grab the new duffle coats, melton wool bomber or maybe a military parka to keep ya warm.

Stay safe and keep warm. Extra 10 mins is really not worth it.

Maestro Pays Homage to the 13th Witness

Maestro Knows - NYC Edition (13th Witness) from Maestro Knows on Vimeo.


I've always enjoyed Maestro and the 13th Witness. I like the style and rawness of what they do and most of the time take interest in the subject matters or topics which they choose to discuss.

Take a look.

Custom Work Completed

BreakBot







As mentioned a few of us were in the beautiful rainy city of Vancouver this past weekend. Some of us were there to work more than play, and vice versa but I won't name names. haha. Who am i kidding,I was there to mainly PLAY! But I'm making up for it by working my fingers to the bone braiding leather for some upcoming winter coats...keep a look out for them! Back to the point though. We did manage to get together for drinks & a few rounds of old school Big 2 and then party it up at Shine. Being the Ed Banger groupies that some of our friends are, we specifically came out this weekend to bow down and get down to the newest genius added to the Ed Banger fam, BREAKBOT. The show did not let us down, between chillin behind the dj booth and getting to see Breakbot work his magic up close and being a midst the great energy of the crowd we had a crazy crazy good time. The boys were thrilled to exchange a few appreciative words with Breakbot, who has been regarded as the best producer of 2009 to electro fans and artists alike. Somehow after the excitement of the night we managed to stumble back to the hotel to enjoy the most amazing pipin' hot veggie pizza and ohh was it ever goooood. What a weekend. Enjoy a Breakbot video! And as a plus I've added on another Ed Banger artist video...Uffie > i heart her steeze.
