With the largest bicycle tradeshow happening in vegas right now I’ll keep the posts as bike related as possible. Fixed Magazine was nice enough to run a feature on me in their newest issue. They touched on the skateboarding / bike crossover and my artistic contributions to the bike community. Stop by your local bike shop to pick up the issue or download it here.

I can really relate to LA personality Levi Maestro. He moved out to LA not knowing anyone and has made a name for himself. I did the same thing 11 years ago. Him and I are on similar paths of working hard and enjoying the days as much as we can. His newest episode just dropped with appearances by Jermaine Dupri and Nelly. I am stoked that Levi is rocking some of my shirts throughout the show. Thanks a lot homie and keep killing it!

I try to keep my brand close to my friends as much as possible. Lucky Lefty’s in Sacramento California stocks Mash, DQM, In4mation and Leilow. All these brands are close family and friends, so when Lucky Lefty’s hit me up about carrying the brand I was excited. Stop by to let them know you are also.

Here is the first drop of Summer 09. This seasons collaboration is with San Francisco fixed gear movie / brand Mash. I have been helping Mash since the beginning with their branding but “Gold Sprints” is our first official collaboration. I am really excited about it!

The “We Buy Gold” shirt is a high quality b&w photo print of NYC pawn shops. The gold in the photos are printed as metallic highlights. My long time friend and NY Times contributer Michael Simon supplied all the photographs for the shirt. The logo stripes New Era is a follow up to the success of the paper plane pinstripe cap a couple seasons back. It is available in 3 color ways and the details are really nice in person.
