Livin' In The Jungle



Head Porter Plus is doing this whole safari thing, I just realized. Anyone else reminded of '92 Banana Republic vibes, when they had the stuffed jungle animals and Jeep in the store? In all honesty, a BR safari tee was probably one of my first crucial graphic tees, and I'm probably not the only one. Mainly skeptical of HP+ (it cost how much? Oh. and I can get it where? Oh...) as one of those highly-jocked, rarely-rocked brands, they should get some proppage on the jungle kit here. Not that Calvin Klein and Polo haven't made it happen for years, but a Zebra print shirt is kind of fresh this summer. Zoom in and you can see they kicked it into high gear by working it so the fabric looks a bit like the Zebra hair would. Via Hypebeast

On Butts in Brazil


Down to a science, but takes out none of the fun. The beauty of it all. Who knew butts were so deep. Err...

It is believed that pointed teeth are related to animal characters, witches, or bad evils. So, in order to be fully human, the teeth should be filed.

5 Delancey



New Yorker's should consider a trip to Consortiums, at Bowery and Delancey right before you hop on the JMZ. Good vibes, nice selection of vintage gear and new designers you're probably not aware of (Procede, Well Played). Cool as shit.
