The Asics Left/Right blogger hunt came to an end and luckily I was able to convince almost all participants to send me their pieces in return for a little BBB sth-sth. It took me a couple of hundreds of emails, negotiations, discussions, sweat, tears and nerves… but this is as good as it gets!

Big THNX to:

Scott & Joey, LimitedHype

Simone, FrizziFrizzi

Glenn, FormFiftyFive

Chris, Mzee

Waiting for the last halfs to fly in….

THNX AMSTERDAM WORLDWIDE!!! This was fun!!

It’s Play-Offs time in Germany! Our Basketball team Alba Berlin just made it to the Final Four. I just came back from the game when they beat Paderborn Baskets and won the best-of-five series 3-2. Over here it wasn’t Kobe vs. Le Bron but Jenkins vs. Felton, baby!

And can you believe it, we have this new big ass O2 Arena, insane sound-system etc. and NO hot dogs!!! Unbelievable.

Michal was really into it (into my Brezel) and cheering like a pro!

It was a very tight game throughout the first 3 quarters, but in the end Jenkins was hitting two important 3-pointers and sealed it off.

We met the whole Mitte Posse on the way out:

My man “Andy-das” Chiu from adidas and Eugene from HB sent me this nice package. I know it has been all over the net already, but I’m wearing them right now and the sneakers are not only super light but more important comfortable as hell! You can tell that they’re not only made to look good, but that “Andy-das” put his super-performance-power-transformers technology in there!

Love the colourways, love the extra laces, love the hat, love the bag, love the bike… (calm down now, I didn’t get that one!) 

Big THANKS, guys! See you in Berlin!

And the Hypebeast bag is definitely an all-rounder:

And the nice little rider cap:

M3 baby! Safety, first:

I was in Cologne last week checking out the final of “Germany’s Next Topmodel by Heidi Klum” live with 15.000 hysterical young girls all over-dressed and pimped-up hoping for the chance to be seen and discovered. Funny.

My friend Ocky is one of the producers of the show and some other friends were also involved so we called it a lil road trip and all met up in Cologne.

Waiting: Birol, Tati and singer/songwriter Chima:

Sydrick from Frankfurt representing his label Nil&Mon:

Heidi getting ready for the show:

PS. her stylist (far right, white tank top) costs $ 7.000 PER DAY!!!

The 3 finalists: Mandy, Sara & Marie:

Flight time:

And the winner is… SARA (Yes, she’s black. And yes, we do have black people in Germany):

And believe it or not, but these three pretty boys got more propz throughout the whole evening than the girls! Nico, Chima & Teddy (Next level boy-group, baby!):

The after party was kinda whack, but we made the best out of it and for sure had some good laughs!

Finalist Marie with photographer Marc Baptiste, who definitely was our light at the end of the tunnel during the party. Hardly saw anyone with so much energy and positive vibes!

And with the winner Sara (actually she does look pretty sweet unlike in this pic):

My gurhl Hadi who was presenting her show RED (PS. and thanks for talking my head off while I was trying to sleep):

Lil thank-you speech by Heidi:

And those ones were definitely the funniest ones during the whole night giving us some good times and showing off their Louboutins:

I swear it wasn’t me who took this pic:

Rest of the weekend was chill time in Frankfurt seeing my mayneeees Daniel and Emi:

And a bunch of lil brads aka family&friends giving us a hard time:

BBQ time:

And that’s that.

I had the chance to design a Bugaboo trolley for BREAD&BUTTER. I mean we’re all getting older and sooner or later we hopefully will have some mini-me’s running out… and there’s no way I’m gonna ride my lil one around in old buggy which I can barely move and which is too heavy to lift!

I wanted to keep it simple, no colours, no prints, all black, mat black frame, only a subtle BBB x Bugaboo logo on the side. It’s a gangsta buggy!

It’s a one-off. Only one worldwide, but expect more to come in the near future…  

BIG, BIG THANKS to Mad from Bugaboo, who is the most easy-going person to work with and who made the colabo possible. Also, big ups to my man Tobi, our graphic designer, who was more than willing to take some extra working hours.

LET’S MAKE SOME BABYS!!

My Bike got game!

Found this over at the blog from my homies’ David&Omer.

Nothing more to say. So true.

Maybe plus: “and you don’t have the contacts to sell it for hundred of thousands”.

The European adidas 3way 2nd drop was launched at No.74 yesterday in Berlin. Surprisingly, only a few people showed up, so the atmosphere was rather calm and chill.

They build a really nice wooden hut in the backyard showcasing the different Consortium sneakers. The green grass, the little wooden details inside and the catering were looking great!

Check out the pics!

And those two guys enjoying to see the others enjoying their food:

And lil Gonca taking a nap after enjoying all the food:

And that’s that. Afterwards, the girls included me in their bike gang riding (posing like G’s) through the streets of Berlin!

I had the chance to sneak-preview the adidas 3Way Consortium 2nd drop, which will be launched in Europe at No.74 store here in Berlin.

Lovely Kaddi from Haeberlein & Mauerer sent me the 5 models which were designed by the heads of Goodfoot, HUF, DQM and Undefeated. Love the whole concept of getting all those creatives around one table and show some team work.

Those following 5 models will be dropped this saturday at No.74. Check out my favourites:

At No. 5, the Forum with all the store logos on different patterns:

At No. 4, the Superstar in royal blue, a classic:

Top 3: The Samba, canvas, black, can’t go wrong with that:

My No. 2: The Nizza in jersey-grey, pretty fresh and dope, dope, dope:

And my absolute No. 1: The Stan Smith! Perfect summer shoe, white sole, beige suede upper, looking clean as hell, I’m definitely gonna crop those!

If you’re in Berlin this weekend, make sure to drop by the Consortium Kiosk at No.74 store from 12am on, grab some drinks and snacks and of course your favourite pairs!

@Kaddi: Love the Pyjama!
