In our SF flagship store we carry a few select brands that I have worked with outside of the Benny Gold brand. Everything in the store is here for a reason and has a story behind it. Ask the sales guys – they will be more then happy to tell you about it.

The first is the most obvious.. Huf. I got my start within street wear and learned the game from them. I designed their original logo close to 10 years ago. A little known fact about the Benny Gold brand is that it started under Huf and the first few seasons were distributed exclusively through them.

Come by our shop and check out a new assortment from them. I am proud to see how much they have grown and where they are going. Support Huf!

Not too long after I started handling my own distro and opened up select stores I started selling to a great store in Arizona called High Point. A few of the guys involved in the store were starting their own brand called Dearly Departed. They asked me to design a logo for them and I came up with this DD candle lockup and custom type. Honor the Dearly Departed!

Come visit us at: 3169 16th Street San Francisco, Ca and see what else we have to offer.

What I love about the culture around “street wear” or whatever you choose to call it is the creativity and passion that is behind it. It is not driven by money and big box dreams. Most of the people that get into the culture surrounding street wear, start their own line or open a core boutique do it because they are passionate about it. Believe me there is much more money in mainstream clothing and malls.

The Fresh Yard, in San Diego is a perfect example of a business driven by passion. They have a genuine love for the creativity. Check out their latest video “So Fresh” featuring the Benny Gold brand and all the other great brands that they carry. Our 1 year anniversary collaboration shirt also makes an appearance in the the video. You can pick yours up in our online store here. It is the first time that we did a women’s shirt.

One of the Benny Gold brands biggest supporter TouchScreen Trell is back with a new video! It’s the fans and the supporters like Trell that make everything possible and keeps us pushing forward. Thank you for the support homie!

This Dealer in Gold Profile is a very special one because The Fresh Yard in San Diego just celebrated their 1 year shop anniversary. They have been supporting the Benny Gold brand since they opened their doors and we are continuing to grow together!

It’s impressive to see what they have built in just 1 short year. I can’t even imagine what they are going to do from here, but I am really looking forward to it!

Whats going on with the Stay Fresh T-shirt and toy that you keep seeing in these pics?

In honor of The Fresh Yards 1 year anniversary we collaborated with them on this very limited shirt design to commemorate the event. The “Stay Fresh” tees is available 3 color ways for mens and 2 for womens in our online shop right here.

All shirt orders come with a Fresh Yard mix CD by DJ Presto and RBST Toy
