We Love BAPE!!!




By now, we're sure everyone is familiar with A BATHING APE (BAPE) brand. The company continues to stay leaps and bounds ahead of the competition with releases like these. Here are the recently released Bapestas and Roadstas in metallic gold and silver.


Bapestas






Roadstas






As with most other BAPE releases, these pretty much sold out within minutes of the NYC store's opening on Friday. Luckily we were able to snatch up a couple pair...


HOT!!!

Tila Tequila Covers King Magazine




Our question is... why? This chick is soooo not hot. We love King Magazine, but we may have to skip this issue.

Designer Spotlight: Kidrobot




Founded by designer Paul Budnitz in 2002, Kidrobot is the world’s premier designer and retailer of limited edition art toys and apparel. Kidrobot merges urban street trends, fashion, and pop art to produce limited edition, collectible toys and apparel. Kidrobot products feature unique collaborations with top international artists with backgrounds as diverse as graffiti, fine art, fashion, industrial design, graphic design, illustration, and music. You may have even seen some of your favorite artists (ie. Jay-Z and Swizz Beats) wearing some of Kidrobot's limited apparel and not realized what it was.




The designer toys sold at Kidrobot are the centerpieces of a new and growing artistic movement. Many artists that work with Kidrobot have gained celebrity status and have huge followings, including USA artists Tristan Eaton, Paul Budnitz, Frank Kozik, Tim Biskup, Huck Gee, Joe Ledbetter, Tara McPherson; the design collective eBoy (Germany); Devilrobots & Mad Barbarians (Japan); Tilt and Mist (France); TADO and Pete Fowler (UK); Nathan Jurevicius (Australia); and many others.




Many Kidrobot toys are extremely rare and collectible and cannot be found anywhere else in the world. Toy artists often choose to create a series of only a few hundred or a few thousand pieces, so once a toy is sold out, it's sold out forever. Kidrobot toys retail from $6 to $20,000, and may appreciate in value over time.

The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) acquired 13 Kidrobot toys in late 2007, which are now part of the museum’s collection. Three toys are currently on display as part of the museum’s “Just In: Recent Acquisitions from the Collection” installation, on view through November 30th, 2008.

Paul Budnitz introduced Kidrobot’s vibrant line of apparel in 2006. Based on Kidrobot’s unique aesthetic, and produced in limited edition, the company’s much sought-after apparel line can only be found at Kidrobot stores, online at kidrobot.com, and in select retailers worldwide

Kidrobot operates store-galleries in New York City, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Miami. Kidrobot products can also be found at select boutique retailers around the world.

The Splash Lounge Chair by Michael L. Wendel




Ever look at macro photos of water splashes or super slow motion video of a droplet slamming into the surface sending ripples across a lake? There’s a moment in that 1/10 of a second when the impact creates a crater or sorts, and if you were small enough, it could neatly cup you. Inspired designer Michael Wendel created a 1/8th scale model called the Splash Lounge Chair, big enough for us to sit in. By the looks of it though, we're not sure how comfortable it's gonna be...




Talk abut making a splash... lol.
