.:TLG:. TASTE LIKE GOLD.

Our long time friend TLG TASTES LIKE GOLD came over the VP headquarters last evening to bless our wall. Besides hanging out with The Seventh Letter with the likes of Augor, Bonks, Fuct, etc. He took the time to stop by and politic with the VP family. If you haven't yet seen TLG on the Los Angeles streets from billboards to walls, you will soon encounter them eventually, maybe around Melrose this summer? Or on RIDE snowboards next line of decks. I'd have to give it up to him if Alex Pardee is coping some of his work. You can also find his work HERE and TLG's website HERE.

SAGE.

It usually smells like special herbs at the offices and sometimes you got to air it out with the hippie stuff, sage.

GOLDLINE.

Uneeker and I assumed that there would be traffic bumper to bumper on the way in and out of Los Angeles this morning to the garment district, so we decided to hit the GoldLine.

I guess we missed the Laker Parade, we caught the aftermath of heads getting hem'd up from the feds, and the street sweepers cleaning up. But our main mission was to pick up and search colors on our new fabrics that are coming out soon this year for up coming lines.

I can say that we can get to Washington Blvd. to Temple Blvd faster than them automobiles in the city. You folks should consider riding bikes, skateboarding......or rollerblading (if that's your "thing") Whats a Razor?

I know this is an infamous bank skatespot but Uneek decided to ride it with his fixed.

YADDA DA!

Here's the deal, we are not trying to ruffle feathers up there in the BAY AREA, we have massive love. As assumed the Golden State Warriors logo got jacked, borrowed, or flipped, obviously it says "LA CITY" with the Los Angeles skyline which was creatively done as a silhouette. BUT yes. "THE CITY" throwback does belong in the BAY and we shall keep it there. If you folks don't know we are an all the way around California brand 'SEE AYE ALL DAY" as it would be for this quote "shirts with huge words printed on them" and all our V-necks are for the womans line obviously.

Also check the blogger's article. "I might shell out the twenty five bucks to pick this up until the Warriors come out with some actual wearable team gear that doesn't make you feel like you found bootleg sportswear in a Chinatown" - www.goldenstateofmind.com

and "Really love the ghetto skyline."

check the rest of the article on GOLDENSTATEOFMIND and for you haters, pay attention.

2010 NBA CHAMPIONS.

Its feels so good to be in LA. For the sixteen, the Los Angeles Lakers did it again. I gotta say that the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers are the best teams in the NBA hands down. Good game!

OK.

We hit up the folks at OKSKATE over the weekend. OKSKATE has opened their doors recently in the city of Rancho Cucamonga. I'd have to say as a new shop in the game, they have been holding it down.
