SLVDR x Spring 2010

Today on my rainy shopping adventure I stumbled across some fresh threads by SLVDR. Southern California Native Rob Myers used a lifetime of shred inspirations to create this sophisticated line for men . Rob is definitely rockin a halo because he's using his brand to give back to the board sports community with his Common Thread Project which works closely with like-minded brands and retailers to collect and distribute gently used boards, footwear, clothing and accessories to deserving youth around the world. Newly launched June 2009, SLVDR is already looking tight enough for this always fresh magazine!

WEEKLEE x cityLife x 3Q APRIL

As we evolve here at cityLife, so too do our features, and with an overwhelming amount of creative talent surrounding us, great ideas are common.  To help you guys keep up to date with our magazine, we have proposed a weekly recap article (with links), to help everyone stay in touch with things.  This week also marks our first feature article/interview with designer and photograher, Laura Austin.  We most definitely look forward to working with Ms. Austin in the future and hope you come back to check out her guest articles as they drop.  One more piece of news, fresh off the presses, is the announcement that cityLife Magazine will be relaunching in July.  We will be changing servers and completely redesigning the site to assist the rapid growth that we are facing.  This redesign will enable us to add a lot more content and feature articles, while keeping everything super fresh and clean looking.  We are currently looking for contributors and interns, welcoming anyone that we feel will make a positive impact on our magazine. 

The third quarter of April brought us a bunch of awesome releases including the spring line from Acapulco Gold, Jack Purcell boat shoes by Converse, Eric Koston's Nike SB signature kicks, and the G-Shock x In4mation surf watch.  We all did a little puff puff on Tuesday to celebrate 4/20, with Nike announcing the release of its "Skunk" dunks, causing controversy in some church circles. Von Zipper jumped on with its One Love bundle and we posted a special Bob Marley edition of the dailydose.  Tragedy struck this week as the legendary Guru from Gangstarr passed away due to complications with cancer.  Shepard Fairley completed a mural at the famous Houston block in NYC, and our own Sharkey dug a photo of her little sister on the GQ Girls of Coachella feature! A couple amazing lookbooks graced our screens with Laurent Desgranges S/S release, then my personal favorite, the Joyrich S/S 2010!  To mark the end of a great week here at cityLife, I had the privilage of talking with Quiksilver designer, Laura Austin.  Check it out people, and keep it real.

JOYRICH S/S 2010 + Fall 2010 Behind The Scenes Preview

As the excentricly styled individual that I am, summer lines seem to excite me more than anything else.  Maybe it's due to the fact that summer is approaching, and I'm just stoked about new fashion, or it could be the dread I face when thinking about minus 30 degree winters I grew up with in Toronto.  Don't get me wrong, winter layering is brilliant for individuality, sans Ugg boots and trackpants.  Either way, summer is almost here and we all need to fill our closets once again.  I bring you Joyrich!  Established in 2007, built on the concept of "FREEDOM/HOPE/DREAM/LOVE = JOYRICH", and the philosophy that "one should never forget to enjoy life," Joyrich screams LA fashion and LA fashion is fundamentally, endless summer.  Florals, patterned prints, distressed pink denim, and even a leopard print are included, so check the line, check Joyrich and buy, buy, wear, boom.

Acapulco Gold x 2010 Spring Line Arrival

Acapulco Gold has just announced the release of the long awaited 2010 Spring line, which was stirring up rumors here at cityLife.  Rumour had it that the cast of Saved By The Bell were doing a reunion show.  Then I decided to stop making things up.  A week ago, we featured the Vans Moda Hi x Acapulco Gold (here) and also gave a peak into the headwear line.  Look for the complete Spring 2010 line release over the next couple weeks.  Visit Acapulco Gold to purchase.

Mark Todd x Мишка / Art Show x Limited Ts

Tomorrow marks a special day for Mishka and artist Mark Todd.  Mishka has announced "Power Fury", showcasing a series of artwork from comic book x fantasy inspired illustrator Mark Todd on Thursday, April 15th at the Brooklyn shop.  Now, most of you are probably asking yourself, "Where's Brooklyn?", "How am I going to convince my mum to lend me the car for a whole day?", "Maybe if I vacuum the entire house, she will let me" 

For those of you not living in NY, Mishka, full of very smart individuals, have collaborated with Mr. Todd to created two limited ts to celebrate the artwork and the show.  The first t features a rendition of Lamour Supreme vs. Mishka's classic Kaiju Invades. Next (check after the jump) features Mishka's favorite hottie, the Predator.  Check the artist here, and a "blurb" (short for blurbation) below. 

Mark Todd uses the visual tropes of comic art and inventive fantasy as the creative impetus for his work. His interest in the deconstruction of pop cultural icons such as X-Men, Iron Man and the Fantastic Four prove even more alluring when coupled with his post modern sensibility. The subjects almost become erased through a process of repetition, distortion and the use of mixed media materials including spray paint, cel-vinyl glossy varnishes and dusty stains. The pieces are rounded at the edges, appearing as prized objects or tablets encoded with some of civilization’s most iconic collective wisdom.

Both ts are super limited, so act quickly and give Mishka a call to secure your own.

Supreme x The Clash

Supreme NY has just announced a collaboration with The Clash, available in store and online April 15.  Here's an excerpt from Andre Torres "The Soul of Punk", explaining the connection Supreme has with these musicians and the culture.

Mixing punk with reggae, dub, ska, early hip-hop and the sound of downtown New York's dance and punk-funk scenes, The Clash were able to run through a myriad of sounds that would lay the foundation for much of modern underground music in the next several decades. It wasn't that they were just covering Lee Scratch Perry tracks in a punk style or trying to bite old school MCs, they were internalizing reggae, dub, hip-hop and beyond, then coming with their own fresh take to create a whole new sound entirely. So many of their genre-bending experiments became the blueprint for whole musical movements that are still popular today, whether it's Bad Brains' reggae-informed hardcore or U2's punk brand of arena rock. The Clash put the soul in punk, infusing the music with a level of humanity that few bands achieve in any genre.

STUSSY Deluxe x Reyn Spooner

Having ordered my Von Zipper "Tangerine Dream" Facemelts on the weekend, (check here) a summer vibe has continued to flow through my veins, full on, with palm trees and all inclusive vacations. With that said, this release is the perfect compliment to that flow I'm going on about.  It's kind of like when you think of the girl you met in Mexico who played a mean game of beach volleyball, spiked the ball in your face, then kissed your cheek to mend the embarrassment.  Maybe.

Stussy  has teamed up with legendary Reyn Spooner from Hawaii, famous for reverse fabric technology, mimicking sun bleached surf clothing. (think boardies you got 8 years ago at Value Village.) This stuff is pure Hawaii and features Reyn Spooner prints with Stussy's trademark typography, complimenting the pieces beautifully.  The collection includes various bags, hats, a button up hawaii print shirt, various ts and jackets.

More flow after the jump (volleyball flow, yeaa)
