Suitman and Wozzup

11 October 2010, 21.04 | Posted in Apparel, Events, Sneakers | No comments »

I was in Hong Kong again for a few days. It was an off-week in the Mainland due to National Holidays.

Met up with Young Kim aka Suitman over Korean BBQ dinner. I picked up my Suitman x Visvim Shirt from the man himself. The shirt has Suitman’s personal touch to it where he did the actual stitching, embroideries on the back of the shirt. Only 15 pieces were made this way. I’ll take more photos of it when I get back to the studio.

For those who will be in Shanghai on Oct 15th, Suitman will have a special exhibition at the DIESEL Store in Plaza66 that night. If you are in town, come check it out. 20 Years of Suitman, consider this exhibit a retrospect of the man’s works. I’m sure it will be another great event, and I’m excited already!

Another shoe on this blog. Why not?!

A collaboration between Guang-Zhou fixie team STAR TRACK and footwear label WOZZUP SNEAKER. This design is simple yet sharp. I quite like the shape of the shoe. I rarely wear non-sneaker styles, but I gave this a try and is quite comfy. This will drop next month in Asia.

BOBA FETT / Star Wars x Adidas Originals

26 September 2010, 18.39 | Posted in Sneakers | 1 comment »

Even when I was a kid, my favorite Star Wars character has been the bounty hunter Boba Fett. No, not Stormtrooper. So, I was bummed out when Fett wasn’t included in the first Star Wars x adidas Series.

Finally, this second round of collab included this dangerous character. Adidas ZX-800 was chosen as the sneaker platform. So, this became my first and only ZX 800. Love it!

Astro Boy super collector. This was a shot from the studio of Hong Kong designer “Ultraman”. He is more known for his metal figures, but in reality, his studio is filled with Astro Boy toys.


Central, Hong Kong. Right across from SOPH., APC, FIL, Nowhere Store. So, the dollar has grown?


A piece from Jeremy Scott’s current Adidas collection. Love the license plate concept here.

SKATEBOARD YOKA

02 September 2010, 20.07 | Posted in Design, Sneakers, Toys | No comments »

During New York Comic-Con 2010, adFunture will be releasing a number of new items. Some were disclosed before, some were delayed until now, and then some were never seen before.

I figured I’d start by showing a piece that was never mentioned before.

SKATEBOARD YOKA is a new series designed to add to the existing YOKA collection. For its debut, we have invited our friend ANTZ from Singapore to grace the first deck. This set, edition of 300, will first be sold in NYCC, at the camp of MyPlasticHeart. Don’t miss out~

Random shots with EP-2

Got myself a new toy; a new camera to be exact. I was just taking random shots over the weekend. Thought I should post some of them here.

This, however, not so random. This is actually a new item we are working on with PROTEST DESIGN in Hong Kong.

I’ve been wearing their accessories for the past 2 years, so I asked the boyz to make something for adFunture. Can’t tell what it is? Show u more later~

Went silent on you again for a while, but I was working hard all the way through….

In between official YOKA Series production, I did a small capsule for SIZE Magazine in China, an edition of 30pcs all sprayed by yours truly. I was never a real artist myself, but I think these came out okay.


New Balance sent over something that they knew I was waiting for ever since the tradeshow! The MA-1 inspired MT580, due out this A/W. Love the color combo and the Gore-Tex outter doesn’t hurt neither. Much much thanks to da boyz. I love it!


Shanghai. After all these years, how do you think it looks like? Still a farm land of sort? Nah.

Check out how Shanghai looks like at night.


Rosa, a great help from our studio. She gave me the bad news about her having to leave the company, BUT, the great side to that was that she’ll be going to Italy to continue on with her education. That, I absolutely support!


I went to Cheng Du City last month, this is one of the shots that I took, one that I like more. These were made with cow-skins, these were used as light-puppets from decades ago. Pretty nice.

You’d want to see more designer figures in this blog, huh? Sorry. You wait, my friends. Just wait.

New Balance MS 574 Series

New Balance just delivered the newest Sonic Welded 574 series. They look pretty nice. Not crazy colors, very wearable, you know what I mean. These went onto the shelves at SoleGoodz right away.

Taiwan / Devilock x Saint of Rock

06 July 2010, 19.44 | Posted in Sneakers, Trips | No comments »

I totally missed updating my blog in June. Wow! This was a first!
I was actually on the road for most of the month. One of the cities I visited was Taipei.

I was in time to see one of the more recent collaborations of Japanese outfit, Devilock.

Devilock worked with a new-comer in the Taiwanese market, Saint of Rock, on a nice t-shirt.
I’m not so sure if there was a pair of denim involved, but I definitely like the graphic used for this project.


Caught up with Wade from Revelator while I was in town.
Always good to see this guy. Expect to see a full new collection from Wade and Revelator this Summer.

Ordered a pair of Air Force 1 iD a month ago, and this came to our door.

First time being able to actually add text onto an AF1, so I did it.
Chose “Black Magic” leather for this one. Turned out okay.
The magenta accent was not the best choice, but like I said: “okay”.

New Balance M1300 JP

30 April 2010, 17.34 | Posted in China, Sneakers | No comments »


New Balance’s M1300 JP special model officially drops at SoleGoodz in Shanghai tomorrow. We are stroked to get the rights to offer this gem to sneakerheadz here in the Mainland. Ming was in time to get the new renovation done, and the new fittings sets off this pair of M1300 perfectly.


Frankly, I’m glad this finally goes on sale tomorrow, ‘cos I’ve been getting calls daily from friends wanting to cop this. Okay boyz, come grab them tomorrow and stop calling me!!! haha
