5 panels...





5 panels hats have been around for decades and have come & gone countless times, the new era fitted or snapback script hats have replaced many domes over the classic 5-panel military with the actual circle ventilation screens...

rainboots & galoshes...




its rainy season and function is evermore needed in this day & age...rainboots & galoshes are usually worn by women nowadays, rubber boots worn by men are usually by blue collar workers such as fishermen, firemen etc....but rockin rainboots casually for a guy, it would problaby be better picking solid colors such as navy blue or hunter green...the monogram style rainboots look cool on women & children...and wearing these style boots on a guy would be a no no in my book...bigs up to the homie cee dot. esquire for this inspired post.

duffle bags & suitcases...







duffle bags and suitcases have always been a functional commodity that has always been overlooked...apparently, it has been a fashion statement for quite some time now...a duffle bag or suit case is like a new alternative to a regular backpack..i personally always have stuck to functionality, so if i was to use a duffle it would be for traveling or carry-on...i currently own a metal suitcase for my laptop which is still functional yet presentable... the most obvious visual fashion in duffles & suitcases is the basic monogram all over prints usually gucci, goyard, louie etc...the basic canvas with the leather straps is very classy, and is problaby the one i would get if i were to cop one, something clean, very low key & subtle...i will post more interesting suitcases & bags so keep checkin in!

BMW Vision Efficientdynamics Concept...


this bmw concept car is pretty clean, the lines of the car are very easy on the eyes and does look classy & fast...the color scheme of this concept is dope plus the blue accents on the lines give it that trontastic look...theres alot of glass going on which must be nice on a sunny day, it reminds me a little of the old school ferrari testarossa but with the lamorghini pop up doors...this is pretty nice for a bmw...the suprising part is its a hybrid!!! hahaha...
