I have been waiting on the Challenger spring/summer 2013 collection to drop for the last while, in the mean time here is a preview of the new collection. These images aren’t the official lookbook but hell they do it for me, motorcycle and skate styles all throughout, damn rights. Love this line, constantly putting out real deal products and collabs. Looking forward to seeing the full complete lookbook in the near future.

Barrier Kult is celebrating cultebrating their 10th anniversary this year and to honnor this accomplishment they have teamed up with Death by Metal to make this lookbook for the collection. Barrier Kult is a Vancouver based skate crew of like minded, knife loving, balaclava rocking metal heads. Really like what these guys are up to, straight up black metal styles, skating and knife rituals, perfect formula for the 84/85 boys. These items are all available soon on the Barrier Kult site.

Jun Takahashi kicks up the colour for this s/s 2013 collection from everyone’s favourite hitech elusive hood cred running label, Nike Gyakusou. Brendan might have to kit up as he’s the runner in the 84/85 house, for me I’ll just admire from the side as Gyakusou always kills it with the presentation (well, maybe I need a set of tights for the post-ride yoga session… wait did I just say that?).

Here is the third edition of our Grammin’ Out series, which features photos from Kevin and I’s day to day action. With Kevin recently moving back to Vancouver Island we are officially back in the same city (again) and couldn’t be more stoked. Over the last while we have really been making an effort to get out there and explore the island and all that surounds it, and as such here is a look at some of our travels and day to day adventures. Oh yeah, and you can follow us here and here.

If your a regular visitor here you know we like our bikes, so its no doubt that we like the Levi’s Commuter collection. Here is a look at the spring/summer 2013 Commuter Collection from Levi’s, geared (excuse the pun) towards the modern day bike commuter. The collection is small but concise; one technical riding jacket, a trucker jacket, a graphic tee and a few styles of pants, both denim and chinos. If you’re going to buy into a market (cough, cough) then at least make it a positive one like cycling or running (images: via).

Even though I’m breaking the sacred blauger code of not posting any f/w collections after January 1st these #campvibes from Rulezpeeps are too good to pass on. Fire / water / surf / coffee / #vanlife / jackets with zip-on skirts? All things that are good.

Here is the newest entry from the the second season of Crack & Shine and their international series, documenting graffiti from across the globe. This most recent video edit was shot in the capital city of Denmark, Copenhagen. The edit was shot by Will Robson Scott and features Copenhagen writers painting clean trains, street bombing on track bikes and describing the history and present state of Copenhagen graffiti. I have always loved the Danes and their dedication to keeping the clean train moment alive, even with the new ‘Strawberry trains’ that aren’t the most desirable shape they still love to paint them and love the fact that they run.

The boys from Inventory are back with the second instalment of their Gastown F.C. x Reigning Champ football inspired collection for 2012. I am really feeling this lookbook shoot to accompany the collection, has a good feel to it. Being an avid soccer player and fan for almost my entire life I can really get behind these guys on this one. Items of interest are the black Training Parka and the terry items, but all looks good.
