Forthcoming Grand Funk Hustle EP

This is a sure vinyl grab.

PXL

A clever take on christmas, PXL.  That'd be a perfect present.. being wrapped in Space Invaders .....Mmmm...  Check their site: http://www.pxlclothing.com/  Its pretty big.

ROOK BRAND CLOTHING

Graphic artists Joe King and Jon Garcia came together to form this epic clothing brand.  They blend illustration and graphic design in a way that merges the two in a perfect harmony.  This combo along with powerful images made a massive impact on me - this inevitably lead to another of my impulse sprees but no WAY was it regrettable.

On their website the 'about' states "if you have worn a graphic t-shirt from any skate/surf/streetwear brand in the past 6 years, Jonathan Garcia (28) and Joe King (29), have probably worked on the art for it." - they aren't lying and it shows.   Check it out at: http://rookbrand.com/shop/

Truly inspiring and QUALITY dezzigin.  cheers ROOK. 

BLEACH.

Popped up to Whitecross Street, having seen that OBEY was exhibiting along with other street artists and discovered this fella's work. his name is BLEACH and he is a master of distortion.  He works with Dead Leg Crew and here's a link to his blog: http://www.01yK.blogspot.com/

PINS

Now here's a guy who works hard.  The other day I met artist/designer PINS, in the Slam City Skates store in Covent Garden, where he had himself nicely set up.  He stated "basically I like donuts and Nike Air Max 1s and I made this stuff check out my website" so I did and I am impressed.  Check it out yourself at www.pinspired.com.  Taking influence from Warhol and Dali, PINS takes a modern, brand-aware approach to design and the results are tasty..

Armada AR7.

Armada just smash stuff.  This is the 2011/12 park ski, the AR7 and it's just tickling perfection.  Click the pic if you wanna give it an oogling.

Ghostco.

Ghostco (Mathew Woodson) is an illustrator based in Chicago.  The scenes he creates are deep screenshot-like perspectives but his use of line and contrast create very emotive expression.  I love realism in illustration.  It's pretty cool how more power can be generated from proportionate drawing than the photograph in cases still.  Check out some of Ghostco's work on http://ghostco.org/

Stacks Skateboards artwork - the next Element..?

In Soho today I saw these boards by Stacks.  Really love this clean graphic style when it comes to deck-art and it reminded me of one of my favourite brands , Element.  I just wish they stayed that way after you used them!

Unrivaled

T-shirts like this are quality.  A nice bit of detailing on the shoulder make them pretty unique and the cloud-shaped camo pocket is a little bit different but at £124.. like Heston's egg and bacon flavoured ice-cream it's just excessive :(

ROAN

This designer/typographer from Mexico, going by the name of ROAN is just right.  That's all there is to it.
