| Representing London, UK |
London celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Reebok Pump. Held at the Reebok Lounge, everyone from the industry turned out to party the night away.
We were there from the Monorex Crew thanks to our past projects with them.
I still can’t believe its been 20 years since the first pump. I remember crying to my parents for a pair, only to get a slap from a very strict mum as she fitted me for some plims…my mum was never cool.
I know London is a long way away, but if you happen to be over between the 3rd – 6th December then the Addict Sample sale deserves a drop in call. Addict are heading into 2010 with a few changes, nothing major, the warehouse is being cleared and moved to a different location, which basically means the originators can concentrate on what they do best…designing garms for you!
There’s going to be bargains galore, too many bargains. So its probably worth booking a flight and coming down!! Do it!
Alternatively, surf the web and visit www.addict.co.uk
Here we go again, following on from the successful Reversible Method-Zip, Addict and Rogue Status have got together again to produce this summer’s must have item. The gun show board short is now available via the addict web site as well as a few select Addict stockists.

I paid a recent visit to the Nike pop-up store (1948) recently. I just wish I could show you what the place looked like before. Nike took over the space, which was being used to park cars and turned it into this great open space, which is both inviting and refreshing. Sounds almost like an alpine air freshner.
The concept store has a tier 0 account, so you’ll be able to find a number of limited shoes and there’s number really there with a crazy price tag. If you not been there, I suggest you check it out. With the olympics coming to the the U.K, this looks set to be another wise move by Nike.
Bravo
I’ll be down the Vibe Bar and I recommend anyone in the East End to make their way down as the GSD bloggers put on a jam packed day and night of entertainment. There’s a serious line up planned, you definitely don’t want to miss this one

The Clown Series sees yet another sell out collaboration with artist Mitch.

His recent Star Wars project with Addict saw hordes of people fight their way to the front to get hold of one or all 3 designs and this clown series has been just as popular. This latest release has taught me a few things. One of them being, clown’s aren’t just scary, they can be sexy. Saying that, my girlfriend wasn’t very happy when I tried to put a red rubber nose on her…not happy at all.
Take a look at the Addict site to view the rest of the collection

My stomach tightened up with the thought of possible embarrasement when this 10 year old came up. I thought she was being set up for a fall. Any other time I wouldn’t care, but somehow this little south-east londoner managed to break through my tough manly exterior and touched a chord. I didn’t want her to flop. Take a look!
