Do Want: New Backpack by Visvim

A new backpack by Visvim named the 22L Laminaria Rucksack drops at F.I.L locations and select retailers this week. The accessory, constructed with prime materials, features thick shoulder straps for your corpse of a body and a premium quality leather base to maintain the backpack’s test of time, even if you drag it lazily on the asphalt on your way to the bus stop young man. Moms know how kids are!

Ok, I’ve received e-mails and some of you think I can’t be a mom since I’m a 25 year old guy, but NEWS FLASH for you, I have a Tamagotchi™ that says otherwise!

Oh… f*ck, it died — The Tamagotchi’s fine…I forgot to feed the dog.

Footwear: visvim FBT BEAR FOOT SHAMAN – FOLK

Since the weather has been over 30 degrees Celsius, I doubt that anyone would want to go out wearing these but if you really want to, by all means go ahead. With a thin and lightweight outsole, elk leather upper and a SHAMAN fringe, visvim’s new FBT BEAR FOOT SHAMAN FOLK can be found through the visvim website (if you can read Japanese) in black, light brown, sand and a two-tone sand/dark-brown version.

This is always a great shoe for the summer, if you have the money, its lightweight and fresh looks can be matched with almost any outfit. Hope this was interesting and brought something new.

FASHION: Memoirs of Niagara Falls Circa 1988

GUCCI SP09 footwear
As discussed here, for the most part things such as braided rat-tails, timber wolf tees, and anything with shredded fabric acts as a portal to another time. A time when gimp and snap-on bracelets were all the rage. When we still believed the fights between Hulk Hogan and Randy ‘MachoMan’ Savage were REAL! When it was actually COOL to be a bleached blond, mullet-haired, die-hard rock fan (instead of just a scenester costume). Those times…they may have been the BEST times.
