finally!!!! Air penny 2


Who can forget all the Lil Penny commercials that launched in the 1990s to promote the Nike Air Penny line. Back then, everyone had a pair of Nike Air Penny 2 (II), but who would have thought of a Retro releasing in 2008?
Indeed they are releasing a total of 2 of the Original color-ways, and only time will tell if Nike will produce some new color mash ups. As of now, we have two detailed looks of the Nike Air Penny 2 (II) Retro Black / Varsity Royal - White (Releases October 2008) and White / Varsity Royal - Black (Releases November 2008).

Boston Hot spots

Relic on Newbury is the only place in Boston to snag any BBC stuff since Barneys stopped carrying. Relic is a high end denim boutique with collections from BBC as well as KidRobot. It is my top pick for Boston street wear.

Technical is more of a skate shoe shop then anything else. If you want some rare DC's or Supra's check out Technical.

Johnny Cupcake's is an institution is Boston that is growing more offical by the day. They are coming out with the new line on June 21st.


Karmaloop is a must when in the city!! There new look is awesome! check out the floor to your left when you walk in. Pretty good selection of shoes and rediculus t-shirts.... Bad ass vibe..

BBC Influence

My Bad Ass Ice Cream chest

The Bape brand as well as BBC have really paved the way for style and the meaning of style. Bringing the sensation and feel of high fashion to a t-shirt. Purple Jiraffe is following the same trailblazing attitude with concepts and ideas that will blow minds and leave only a few getting the thoughts that drive the brand. PJ is allowing the motto of “Standout” to really be seen. The blend of insane colors and a sense of emotion will be a beacon for people who are looking to set trends and integrate PJ into their collections.
