TOKYO TRIBE.
(This is what I feel like after this week)
Finally heading home from another nutso week in Tokyo. Most would faint if they saw my Entourage schedule while I was out there. Just non-stop...I don't know why I do this to myself. Here are some highlights...separated into PEOPLE and PRODUCTS.
THE PEOPLE:
Remnants from HK that I forgot to post. Runyo (seen in red) runs the Nike Cool Shit Dept. in China. Dude has BALLS for rocking thst Staple shirt in China. It reads "I AM NOT A COMMUNIST" in Chinese with tonal Chinese stars printed on the chest. That's like wearing a "FUCK MASONS" t-shirt to the White House.
Hiroshi and his new MacBook that matches his Maybach. Hiromi after a mind-boggling meal. The 2 Yo's from Base Station. And my man Marcus from Nike along with his pals. Good seeing him...its been a second too long.
Chie-Pong from Headporter HQ with her man Hiroshi. (Not that Hiroshi, the other Hiroshi)
Nike JPN-Kubo(Sport Culture) and Takeshi (SB). Thanks for the goodies! (See below). Oka from Medicom, DJ Muro's crew at his store Savage. We'll hook up next time Muro! Have fun in Hawaii...and Nori from Apple Shibuya Japan. Thanks for the good times.
Celux/LVMH ladies: Asako-san and Aiko-san. Nabe good eats!
THE GOODS:
You know I gotta start with the newest, freshest Kit Kat to hit shelves: FRUIT PARFAIT!!! What is wrong with our country when we are subjected to only CHOCOLATE flavored Kit Kats? We're like Neanderthals.
1. FCRB/Sophnet Nike Jacket. Sweeeet. Thanks Kubo.
2. North Face Atmos Flight Series Jacket. Gonna give this to Nico to match one his AM90s.
3. Juice x Tamagotchi toy. Amazing packaging. Props to Kevin/EDC.
4. Paul Smith tonal polka dot necktie. (To match the Footpatrol AM90s.)
Celux x Havaianas flip flops to celebrate World Cup. The straps are hand beaded with the each country's flag motif.
FCRB Nike Knit Jersey Blazer. Feels like a jock. Looks like a gangsta. So bananas...
HF x Stussy Live Mix from Club Ageha. Available exclusively out the back of Hiroshi's Maybach trunk. (Not even joking...for real!)
1. Hernandez P-Rod. Mike...sick work on this one. Best P-Rod since the Jordans.
2. Woven for the lady.
3. Cole Haan (division of Nike, Inc.). Dress shoes with vis-air! Takeshi...we gettin old now...gotta play the part.
4. Soph x Nike Trail Free. This is what old people wearing on Sundays. Black leather all throughout.
Various Bearbricks and the X-Girl set courtesy of my man Oka. Oh and peep the Daft Punk mini set available with their CD.
Nintendo DS Lite and Micro. Big thanks to HF and Teruzane Utada for hooking that up! (Hope you are enjoying those Peter Saville Levi's!)
Some tees: Stussy x Muro (dope concept featuring each companies first ever designs overlapped). 2 Muro x Mickey Mouse tees that are perfectly executed based off old record covers. Milkfed x Base Station collab tee for the lady.
That's it kids! I will now attempt to sleep for 100 consecutive hours....probably won't happen.
Oh one more thing. Peep the Dopefiend interview that just dropped. Thanks to Clarence for being mad patient with me.

Hi Jeff,
I have been readding your blog for quite a long time now. It's great. Keep up the good work.
I'm very interested in your Staple "I AM NOT A COMMUNIST" t-shirt. Please let me know where I can get my hands on one in Large please. By-the-way, I live in England.
Thanks very much and looking forward to hearing from you.

JF
