Vans “Waffle Sole” iPhone Case
Check out the Van’s sole inspired iPhone case using the waffle detailing.
Not completely sure where to pick up one of these iPhone cases yet…but rumors are that some of them have hit local shops for only $28.
Great work by Josh Friedman, Brooklyn, NY
The record case is made from Baltic Birch ply-wood and uses a simple box joint in its construction. Designed with the Lp in mind, the record case can shelve 325 records and still have some shuffle room left over.
R.I.P. Jimmy Castor, 1947-2012
Legendary & respected saxophonist, Funk Legend, and also father to my close friend…
Jimmy Castor died yesterday, at age 64.
The leader of the seminal funk/disco band the Jimmy Castor Bunch. The group was behind funk classics like the 1972 smash, “Troglodyte (Cave Man).”
Castor’s music lived on through hip hop as his song “It’s Just Begun” became a staple break of the ’70s and ’80s b-boy break dancing scene. The song served as the back up music for the iconic b-boy collective the Rock Steady Crew in the 1983 film Flashdance. Eric B. and Rakim, the Ultramagnetic MCs, N.W.A., and Kanye West were among the hip hop names to sample Castor’s tunes over the years. You’ll be missed Jimmy! -T.Forte
Man’s best friend durable rope dog lead - By Jack Spade
Cerveceria Sagrada, Mexican Craft Beer
“The whole concept behind the brand and packaging is inspired by the golden era of lucha in the 1950’s, when movie heroes were not Superman or the X-Men — but El Santo and his wingmen, who fought creepy monsters driving a silver ‘52 Alfa Romeo with surf music on the background. The variety of styles are named after fictional characters also inspired by the vintage lucha style; “Black King” Imperial Stout, “Blond Gomez” Lager and “The Vampire’s Son” Red Ale.”
