Springcourt & Schmoove Both Gain Major US Foot Hold

Just announced this week, the two footwear brands gain full US representation. Springcourt the classic and iconic French tennis shoe company and up and comer and fellow French brand Schmoove gain a home with Archetype Showroom. Both footwear companies have been found in select stores in the US for a while now but finally both will gain the full representation they deserve. Look for a bit of a wider yet focused distribution on both lines. Oh not to mention Springcourt officially opens its US targeted website springcourtusa.com.

Hope A/W 07

Hope is a fashion line out of Stockholm which inherently now is a very good thing. Hope is a very well thought out and well put together label, very cohesive pieces that at times push the boundaries all the while every garment remains wearable. The above is my favorite pieces from Hope's A/W 07 line up, enjoy.

Updates Lacking

I have not updated at all recently. Heres what I have done

Saw Banksy's exhibit in NY, pretty cool set up.

I'm going to NY on Thursday I should have an update then.

Making Changes.

Also look for my top 10 albums of the year soon.

Fuck.

Holy hell this has been the longest 3 weeks of my entire fucking life.

Damn.

TheCast Menswear Speakeasy

Celebrated Menswear line TheCast breaks into their first concept shop The Speakeasy. A cozy spot on Ludlow adorned with the busts of Antelopes, Deer and a Wild Bore, oh not too mention their always expanding line partnered with accessories by Black Sheep & Prodigal Sons.
If you can make it by this weekend, they're having their grand opening party, complete with boozed up coffee and tunes rocking the shop via the rag time classic phonograph.
