THE BLUE LOBSTER.

I haven't purchased or worn Dunks in awhile. But I do still appreciate the design and simplicity of the shoe. The Concepts' Red Lobster was a quality release and this is no exception. Nice leathers and eye catching colors will make this an instant sell-out. Jedi laces are illy as well.


Concepts Presents the Blue Lobster Nike SB Dunk Low Premium

The Blue Lobster Dunk will drop at Concepts on Saturday, June 20, 2009, at 11:00 am.

The Blue Lobster Dunk serves as the sequel to last summer’s original Lobster Dunk, a Nike SB that first made waves on May 31, 2008. The first “Lobster” was shipped and promoted by the “Concepts Fishing Company,” and came equipped with a poster, lobster claw rubber band, tee shirt and condiment box (replete with lobster shell cracker, fork, bib, wet nap and “butter” shoelaces) all embossed with the “Concepts Fishing Company” logo. The first 50 pairs sold were available in ultra-limited edition packaging, with all of the above-mentioned bundled up in an authentic Concepts wooden lobster trap.

This time around, it’s dangerous! The “Blue Lobster” is a dangerous sub-breed of violent crustaceans that have been wrecking havoc on the otherwise tranquil waters of New England. Priced at $250.00 usd, the actual Blue Lobster sneaker will be bagged, tagged and sealed in a HAZMAT foam container. Each pair will be joined by an official Nike SB tee shirt, hang tag and lace lock. The first 200 pairs will come with 1 of 2 Concepts x Alien Workshop skate decks (Images coming soon).

On June 20, while in line to pick up the Blue Lobster, Concepts will also be raffling off a pair of the original Lobster from 2008. Raffle tickets will be sold for $10 each and the drawing will be held immediately following the release.

WHEN IT WAS FUN.

Many years ago... sneaker hunting was really fun! You searched and searched for that perfect shoe for months just to outfloss the next guy. They had nothing on me back then. Nowadays, every 16 year old kid with no job can get a limited sneak @ every boutique in Melrose. No hate but it's like a baseball card collection now. Ehhh.

VICE DOs AND DON'Ts.

Are nerds the 2009 cool kids?

Excelling at life!


Aside from “sneaker culture” one of the most homo and expensive trends you can align yourself with while at uni is the trendy fixed-gear bike cult. You spend hours on forums, and eBay searching for the parts to make your dream bike. Then you lock it up outside a pub full of other bike pervs so they can drool at it while everybody else in the world laughs and kicks it.

LV DON YE WEST.

It's alot of hype. $1200 for sneakers?? Chicks pay that much[or more] for handbags... so, I guess black kids will cop them. I want to see an old white man rocking these. But it seems like it is being marketed to young urban. Kanye may be drunk or high on this vid. haha.

VA$HTIE.

Streetwear and sneakerfags think this girl is the sh*t. I think she looks mannish sometimes. I do love the "art school" girl look though. She has mad style and that in itself is very attractive. I think she's Indian.

REPOST!

SNEAKERFAGS!! PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR WOMEN!! OR THIS WILL HAPPEN.






So imagine you're one of those dudes who spends all your loot on kicks and gays off to your collection every chance you get. Imagine also that you're dating this hot model chick and living in HER sick little spot in San Diego. One day you come home and see all your shit packed up and sitting on the porch, alongside a note telling you to find your sorry ass a new place to live. You later learn that she finally wised up to your scandalous side-life and is good and done with you… Hard times, right?

It’s not over yet… Your shoe collection wasn’t in that pile of shit that was waiting for you on the porch, and after weeks of trying to get it back, you realize this chick isn’t giving you shit… Harder times, right?

Still not over… Some dudes from VitalSkate.com know your chick and snapped flicks of her posing half naked with your beloved collection. “Why?” you say? 'Cause it’s funny shit, and 'cause your chick is hot. “What does this have to do with skateboarding?” you say? Don’t ask stupid questions. Enough about you, though, err… that guy you were pretending to be. Fuck that guy. Let’s meet his ex-chick, Ayiiia.

VitalSkate: Why don’t you give us a general breakdown as to what the hell is going on here?

Ayiiia: It’s simple. I dated this guy for two years. He lived in my house rent-free and basically did nothing but play video games and look at shoes on the Internet.

So you just got over that or what?

Well no, that’s just how it seems now in retrospect. The reason I kicked him out goes past just being lazy and selfish. I don’t want to go into all that, though.

So are you ever going to give him back his shoes?

No. It’s not like I have all of them… I only had about 20 pairs at my house and that’s only a small portion of his collection. I’m keeping these because he owes me money, and because I bought him most of these anyways.

So is he one of those dudes who slept out on the sidewalk in front of shops the night before shoes were released?

Yes! I never understood that. It’s kind of psychotic, actually.

What are you going to do with them?

Probably sell them on eBay. Maybe if someone reading this wants to buy them, that would be even easier. They are all size 10.

Would you ever date another dude who is all cracked out on shoes?

Like I said, the shoe thing wasn’t the straw that broke the camel’s back, but it was a bit annoying at times. No, I don’t think I would, though.

Is he gonna be bummed on this?

He most certainly will be.

Hahahahahahha!!!

AMERICA'S BEST.

If you are a dude[excluding Filipino or Asian] and dance in a group, you are a gay. Not gay as in lame but an actual homosexual. This is not my opinion but an observation. All these white and black dudes in the show are homosexuals. I'm not stating that as bad or good. I'm just sayin. Girls if you see a white dude that's a great dancer... The likelihood of him being straight is not good. You can dance with him but he doesn't want to buy you drinks or take you home!

Anyhow. Hung out at Kissy's pad and she was giving me a mini fashion show. She had just purchased some funky gear. It looked funny but when she put it on, it was pulled off quite nicely.


She has some interesting toys.


I was still on my training for Holland. My choice of imported beer for the night was Newcastle. And speaking of Newcastle, I received a free pair of sneakers last week. There is nothing better than free shit... But getting free sneaks?! I'm ecstatic.


Does the colorway remind you of something?

Yup. That's right!

It is a colorway resembling the aforementioned drink of choice for the night.


I'm usually in to monotone sneakers but I had to rep the beer I consume often. Here's an example of sneakers that are perfect for me.


Dapper.

I went out for dessert last Tuesday @ Cafe Ba Ba Reeba. It's a tapas joint. Had some dessert wines and mini desserts. I didn't bring my cam; so, you have to use your imagination. I had the flan, chocolate cake, and caramelized banana. The presentation was great. I am inspired by the whole experience.


Sh*t!! I am soo late!

This is a girl I use to know in high school. Her name is Cathy Shim. She hangs with the big movie stars now. Good for her.



* pics are from the movie Balls Of Fury

I can't front. It must be cool to rehearse with greats like Christopher Walken. Truly good for her.

KICKS & CHICKS.

Bringing back the two subjects that I enjoy so.

TOYS R US KID.

If you know me really well or not even, you would know that I have a shoe fetish. I'm addicted to things that shine and sparkle[not jewelry]. For the past six months I've been really good. I haven't purchased a new shoe or any article of clothing more than a hundred dollars. I've been saving up for a major purchase. People say I need to grow up. Who are these retards you ask? Inconsequential. The trip to cali this weekend will test my willpower. I get impulsive when I'm there and it will not be easy. So much to do and so many places to go. People to visit and others to see if...

Green is for the money...

...Gold is for the honeys. Trainer SBs so clean.

Old school 5 panels.

Blazer SBs so comfy...


F)ops lowered their retail prices. Dangerous.

The Stussy Store is gonna make lots of money this weekend. The black one is extra tough.

I don't want that keychain... I NEED it!

I L-O-V-E Stussy.

Anyhow... I just wish that I can live my life playing all day... Wait a minute! I do live that way. I believe that if you can't have fun in your personal life and your work life then what the hell is the point?!? Really. Really?

Productive day today at Austin's. I spent the night making desserts and thinking of new ways to plate our salads. I got messy but the presentations ended up clean.

Soo hungry now.

"Berries and cream. Berries and cream. I'm a little lad who love berries...... .and cream..."


My sleep schedule is somewhat going back to normal. G'nite. ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzz.
