Akomplice x Sneaker Freaker

May 14th, 2012

Our latest collaborative effort comes in conjunction with heralded European sneaker publication, Sneaker Freaker Germany. With Frank 151 and DIME projects under our belt, Sneaker Freaker marks our third magazine based collaborative incarnation. The finished product comes in the form of a co-branded t-shirt that pays homage to some of the most feted kicks in history, as well as a pair of one of a kind shoelaces. Both the text on the tee and shoelaces make use of our hyperlight technology that changes color when exposed to sunlight. The thematic mainstay of the collaboration is that taste lies in the tongue of the beholder, and one can rest assured that the project will suit the taste of both our fans alike. Only the first 12 orders in the US and first 12 orders in Europe will receive the miniature red shoebox, while total production will still be extremely limited to a run of just 50 units in the US, and 50 in Europe! The project will be available May 24th 4:00 pm (PST) at our online store, flagship in Santa Barbara, and the Sneaker Freaker Germany web-store.


Impromptu Photo Shoot In Colombia

May 13th, 2012

I’m down here in Medellin Colombia when all of a sudden I got an email from Murder Matt, saying “We need to knock out a poster for our Savoy Summer Release party asap!” It’s 6pm and he says they want it by the morning, so my homies from ClownRMX and I hit the streets to find a hot Colombian shorty to be the cover girl for the poster. We found a beautiful college student named Nina and when asked to model, she replied “Why did you pic me? I’m not a model. There are so many girls in Medellin way hotter then me.” We assured her she was what we were looking for and the shoot went down 3 hours later at her apartment. The lighting wasn’t great and we only had our iPhones, but we made due with what we had and still came out with some cool shots. I had Albert (1/2 of ClownRMX) choose a couple of his favorite photos. Share, like, or tweet to let us know what you think of them!
