posted: Wednesday February 21, 2007 - 12:26 PM
Metropark has updated their stock and selection of women's Tokidoki bags, tees, and tops. I visited the SF Metropark store back around Christmas time and my girl fell in love with the Tokidoki hip bag. I have to admit I loved it as well. My favorite this time around has got to be the all-white Okie-Dokie button down. Prices are around $35 for tees and $180 for bags.
Monsieur T. Spring/Summer 2007
posted: Monday February 12, 2007 - 10:35 AM
Inspired by skate culture, streetwear, urban art and collaboration, Monsieur T. has been steadily releasing a consistent stream of original tees for both men and women and the Spring/Summer 2007 line is no different.
This season's tees feature artwork by: the Berkley brothers, Bwana Spoons, and Martin Ontiveros (all from Portland), plus Matt Lyon from England, Emil Kozak from Denmark, Fernando Elvira from Spain, and Tomontherock from France. Added to the lineup are Royal Remarkable from North Carolina and Delarocca from France.
The diverse range of styles makes for a variety of choices and the women's line really steps it up this time around with a few exclusive and flattering cuts.
Pictured here for men are two new Crossign by Delarocca colorways (I have this in black/green and it looks killer), an interesting Emil Kozak Allover print, the playful Jessie's Day Off by Bwana Spoons, and the fierce Devil's Puss by Martin Ontiveros.
Pictured here for women is the form-fitting cap sleeved, raw edge Nothing Forever shirt by Matt Lyon, the neon-inked Tribute to Mondrian 2 Tunic, and my personal favorites - the Faux Stiches (with puff ink faux stiching) and the Couture with real stiching.
There are several more shirts available from the line - I've only chosen to highlight some of my favorites but keep your eyes on the Monsieur T website as the release should be coming soon (which also means all the previous season's goodies will likely be on sale as well).
The North Face X Supreme
posted: Monday February 12, 2007 - 9:47 AM
In 1966, two hiking enthusiasts founded a small mountaineering shop in the heart of San Francisco's North Beach district. The company soon became known as The North Face - named for the north face of a mountain in the Northern Hemisphere that is generally the coldest, iciest and most formidable to climb - a retailer of high-performance climbing and backpacking equipment. In 1968, The North Face began designing and manufacturing its own brand of high-performance apparel and equipment. In the late 1980's, The North Face became the only supplier in the United States to offer a comprehensive collection of high-performance outerwear, skiwear, sleeping bags, packs and tents.
Over the past 15 years, The North Face brand has represented a perfect union of fashion and function and has been adopted as the jacket of choice by metropolitan youth around the world. Clean design coupled with authentic performance quality has allowed The North Face product to simultaneously transcend the mountains of the Himalayas and the streets of New York.
This Spring, Supreme will release it's version of The North Face Summit Series jacket.
Available this March in 2 colorways at Supreme stores worldwide.

GRN Apple Tree Breeze Hoodie @ Digital Gravel
posted: Tuesday February 06, 2007 - 1:50 PM
Hoodies hoodies hoodies everywhere you look but GRN Apple Tree is the one who wrote the book. Their new BREEZE zip-up moves things in a new direction - inside. All over is all over so let's get subtle and use the print as an afterthought.
This light blue cut and sew hoodie features matching cream pulls, epaulet detail on the shoulders, nylon poly blended canvas exterior, contrasting cream ribbing on the wrist and waist and a steep $260 price tag.
