patagonia tech wear...




came across some new torrentshell patagonia jackets, if you click the link theres a clean brown version of this coat...in case you were wondering, patagonia is a outdoor clothing brand basically like north face but just a different company...I grew up on north face jackets personally and it has and always will be a classic look...patagonia is just like a alternative to north face...the brand tag is very subtle with a vintage style fabric stitched one piece logo...unlike the classic north face which has the north face hump logo on the heart and the upgraded versions of coats that have the dual north face hump on the front & back...i'll keep u guys updated on some more nice tech coats by these great brands...keep checking in!!!

new transbay terminal to be built in san francisco

streets of japan with fixies & skateboards...nice.



big ups to the homie thundercracker for this video, cinematography is pretty cool with the long city avenues of japan lit up at night which makes the streets look alive...oh yeah, the fixies & skateboarders help too....

look what i found!!!



I actually woke up & decided to go running...yes! I said running haha! anyways, i decided to look into my vault of kicks and felt like wearing some old running shoes i never wear anymore so i dug in my vault and found my old air rifts!!! the green & blk colorway...this shoe was released in 96 and was made for kenyan champion marathon runners who ran barefoot in competition, this shoe has a stylized split toe that was molded for your feet.

new gorillaz album...






new gorillaz album should drop sometime in march, always liked the direction this band has gone, using animation & drawings as its characters instead of the actual band members...this approach to me locks down longevity in the group ultimately sacrificing their fame of their real identities...plus it jus looks cool.

yeah i kno everyone & their momma read up on this already but it is interesting...

The new ipad recently introduced on jan.27th 2010 will problaby revolutionize mobile web surfing more than anything, the base model starts roughly around 500 dollars, not bad... i noticed it has a optional keyboard you can use if you don't wanna use the touch screen. It seems to have a stand to prop up the ipad also, It is totally reminiscent of the iphone only bigger....but don't get me wrong, i woundn't mind having one of these bad boys chillin at the coffee shop surfin...but in the case of Apple products, usually the first version has its bugs, and the 2nd & 3rd versions of the ipad should be better & worth buying. The ipad from apple should be available late march 2010.
