Whatupdoe, here we go again.  We have a small update for you in regards to Crooks summer, T.B.G. (Too Black Guys), and Nike.  Let’s start with the Crooks & Castles.  First we have the “Aloha Friday” tee in black & white, this is a clean tee with a play on the interlocking C’s logo.  Just in time for the summer, check it out.

Next up we have the “Gorgon” tee in both black & white.  This is also a classic Crooks design, a play on the Versace jump off.

Then we have the “Winners Circle” tee in black & red.  This reminds me of the bright lights in Vegas.  You know that’s where everybody goes after they win that ’ship.  Get it poppin’ son!!!  Always good times in Vegas, LOL!

To round out Crooks, we have the “Gloves” tee in red.  This is obviously a Kronk gym flip.  Classic Detroit ish right there, a no-brainer.  Let’s see all the true boxing fans out there come pick this up.  This may be a tad bit off the subject, but has anyone ever seen the 5 yr. old kid from Cleveland that they call baby Floyd?  Check you tube, this kid is unbelievable.  A future champ no question.

Sticking with the clothes, I would like to introduce you to, T.B.G.  This is a no brainer, first off, we’re 2 black guys so we had to pick it up.  LOL.  We also like what the brand represents, and the fact that there is thought behind every design.  This is from the Jim Crow Couture line, this is an at once order so it’s only Polos, but we will definitely get more in next season.  Three colors, let’s go.

Last but not least, got a new Dunk Hi in, it’s the Royal Blue boy, just like the Orange one we got last month.  Royal blue, white swoosh, and a gum sole.  Don’t Sleep!!!  These will go fast.  Check it.

Aiight, it’s late, I’m out.  We are having a little sale this week, up to 50% off, maybe even more if I can convince Rick.  We still have a couple hats left over from the release this past weekend, so get them while you can.  Be on the lookout, we have a Jordan release this Friday night at Midnight.  It’s the stealth/cactus Jordan V Fusion.  

Stay fly, stay safe, stay fresh, peace.

Whatupdoe, we back like we never left.  Shout out to Marv Won.  Alright, we got a nice little update this go round.  Shoes from Puma, Nike, and Alife, Women’s 10 Deep, Men’s 10 Deep, and Kid Robot.  Yes I said, Kid Robot.  Catch up.  First we’ll start with the Puma Yo! Mtv Raps First Round Re-up.  So many women asked about this shoe that we put in a re-order for small men’s sizes.  Don’t quote me on this, but I think we got from size 5 - 7.5.  Hey Ladies, don’t miss out on this one.

Next we have a new Quickstrike from Nike, this is one of the Euro Champ Air Max 90 packs.  The Grey/Blue is the coldest, But the Black/Silver is sick with the red laces.  Shout out to the young lord Jawan for cashing out on both of ‘em damn near before I pulled them out of the box.

Just in today, we got the Summer Alife kicks, the Flourescent Parachute pack.  These always go pretty fast, so get in where you fit in.  We got the yellow, and pink in smaller sizes for the ladies.  Don’t sleep.  Alife is Poppin’ right now.

Next up we have the Young Lordette Christine, Repping so hard, and so fly.  In the words of old Marty Mart.  You Go Girl!  LOL!  Gettin’ her model on in the 10 deep hoodie.  Oh lord.  Ya’ll see I didn’t say the other thing I always say, I got ya’ll YL’ettes all day.

Staying with 10 Deep, just on the men’s side, we have 2 new Polos.  These are called the Prince Buster Polos.  2 Colors, clean, Red & Black.  P.S. Check out the Red Polo with the Silver & Black Air Max 90’s.  Run with it. 

And last but not least, while people are trying to copy our style, and do what we do, we move on and we try to be exclusive.  Forget that, we are exclusive, and we bring you the hottest clothing lines that keep us exclusive.  So I said that, to say this.  Introducing.  KID ROBOT!!!!!!!!!  This is our first shipment, so it’s a small one, but KR is going to be one of our main clothing brands, right along with 10 Deep, Crooks & Castles, and Alife.  Three tees, and a New Era.  Check ‘em out.

Alright, I’m out.  We have a lot of things that we are working on that I would love to tell you guys about, but I can’t really spill the beans right now.  Just be on the lookout, big sale next weekend.  Burn Rubber Show at Northern Lights, on Tuesday May 13 featuring Octane & Illite, Fes Roc, Magestik Legend & Danny Brown & 87.  See flyer.  (Let’s see if Mos actually reads these). Keep your eyes open.  Until next time.  Stay Fly, Stay Fresh, Stay Safe.  Peace.
