Kaws x Porter bag revealed

Just picked up the latest SMART mag in Osaka and looks like they have the full scoop on the new Original Fake x Porter bag. As only a teaser pic of the Chomper zip exists so far ( check hypebeast.com ) I though headz might enjoy a peek of the whole thing. Ah yes, and the mag includes the new Fall/Winter BAPE collection as well as a stickersheet and tote bag. Go Ape!





P.S: Being quicker than the mighty Hypebeast feels good, he he ;)

Soulkitchen Osaka

A dream came true as I was running around Osakas streets and found this gem of a bar. Small, cosy and with the most inviting set up ever. After a couple of beers I ended up behind the decks so now I can officially claim I played in Japan, sweet :) Nuff props to everyone who was there!

BAPE Opening Party Shibuya

Blogging live and direct from Tokyo / Japan!

Now, whats is doper and more geeky than attending a BAPE party with this line up while being in the centre of Nigos Ape-pire? Not much! Nuff said, that was one of the best parties ever I attended, thanks to Nigo and Chat Hugo spinning freestyle party hits from Chemical Brothers to Deee Lite and Teriyaki Boys / Pharrell just killing it live. Especially Pharrells excursion into old NERD belters like "Lapdance" send the crowd stellar and me moshing through rows of aped out Tokyonites. Fucking sugoi indeed!!!








Headz knew!


Although he looks like he was No.1 cool guy on the night, he wasn't. He was No.2 cool guy! Still an achievement when basing his outfit on the terrible DCxBAPE collabo.


Aahh! Pharrell!!!!




Either he didnt get the memo or Skatething is on some ill shit next season...
