Tradeshows recap part1..

Just back from Barca and Frankfurt. Bread and Butter and Bright, lovely. My idea was to blog from over there, but I forgot my cable to load the picts. Even if I would have had it with me, I probably wouldn’t have uploaded any. Mad busy over there with our booth and ofcourse a full night-agenda..Here a little recap from the battlefields.

Here our view, la Rambla. Always classic, especially at night.

10 kg Promomaterial ready:

It felt good to be back again in the circus of Montjuic:

Back to where it all started 3 years ago:

Wouter and I arrived on monday, to do some pro-sticker work:

Ofcourse Monsieur Simon also was there to do some hall inspection and see if there are no spies around the Sixpack booth already:

Wouter does a final check and it was time to leave this place..

Time to meet the hotshots from the FC and discuss some streetwear gossip:

Day after more brands thought it was time to get things prepared over there…The Wemotions sind zuruck!

Patta Distribution, with a magnificent 4 hour sticker job:

Details details..

Diner time at cafe Mama with Les Sixpacks, CTRL, Fresh…good times

Lionel: Burn the brand!

The other half of FC arrived and Peter still thought there was another REAL party at Dos Trece…next time

Okay finally the tradeshow started! It was all goood and no, we didn’t only have these guys hanging in our booth..

In the evening I was invited to a lovely diner in a Barca loft by Philip from Bread and Butter. Badia, Teimaz wife from Azita Frankfurt cooked a delicious diner for all of us…

Round the table, guests like Highsnob David, Jeff Carvalho, WoodWoods Soren and Barbara, Jeff Staple, the PigMag / Super guys, Solebox brothers, Durkl amongst others..

After some midnight blogging from Jeff and David we went to the Frank151 party…

In no particular order, party heads from Sixpack, Patta, Norse, Pointer, Wemoto, FC, Dreamteam, Jean Citykingz / Toykyo…

Oh this may look like your typical streetwear sausage party, but there were actually some pretty nice girls here…but I think my girlfriend deleted all these picts from my camera.

Well, here some other good stuff; say hello to the best Dutch sale rep at his best:

And here his boss, so you know who was his teacher:

And the boss the day after (the good thing is he wasn’t able to over spend on his budget):

New fleamarket space with Azita, Solebox, Reed Space, Slam Jam, woodWood etc:

Interview by Flake.tv soon on Highsnobiety:

Doublegoose Oliver:

Walter van beirendonck worked with his Antwerp students on some great denim pieces:

That night the English arrived…a beautiful narrative with these 2 lads and their best friend will follow soon in part 2…Rufus Second Son and Ry Ryouki I would find a place to hide for the coming 6 months.

The final Knock out in part 2.
