Celeb Watch!

It's started already here in Edinburgh and we get the ball rolling with a beauty!
I spotted Rutger Hauer on my way from home from work on Friday evening, he was sporting shoulder length hair and a lovely tan.
The festival brings out all sorts or film and TV actors. Stew had the pleasure of conversing with David Guest a few months ago, and last year i saw Bill Bailley, Jim Bowen, and no other than the Scottish legend himself, Sir Sean Connery. He walked by me one morning as i was opening the shop, i nearly dropped my bacon rolls!

If you spot any celebs, try and get a photo and send it in. Best photo wins a prize!

Planks for the memories

Stussy Scotland T's

Our friends at Stussy have produced a very limited, very special t-shirt just for us here in Scotland. We now have in stock three different colourways and they're available to buy right here. Don't delay as they're selling like hot oatcakes!

Good wood dude.

Just had a wedge of new wood through the door from Plan B and The Harmony. Catch them at our Edinburgh and Glasgow stores this weekend.

27/07/07 is Operation Doomsday.

Daniel Dumile aka Zev Love X aka King Geedorah aka Viktor Vaughn aka MF Doom!! In my opinion to this day Doom is the most talented artist to emerge from the wreckage that is modern hip hop. Originally part of the group KMD, MF Doom came about after Dumile's disenchantment with the hip hop industry and the death of his brother. Always performing behind a mask Dumile has kept his personal life private, preferring to use his incredible talent to put forward his views on the world. So for Nike SB to get him to agree to a collaboration shoe is no mean feat. The shoe you see above has been created to coincide with the release of the album MM Food and is one of the hottest SB's for sometime.

On Friday 27th July at 10am in our Edinburgh store we will have a very limited number of pairs of the MF Doom dunk on a strictly first come first served basis.

In the meantime, watch the video below, click on the links and learn about the man known as MF Doom.

Turning the place over.....

Stole this from the UARM blog but I was so blown away by it I had to put it up here. Richard Wilson is the name of the artist and wether you regard this as art or not it's definitely a great piece of engineering.

Enjoy.

Richard Wilson the artist not Richard Wilson the actor of "I don't believe it!" fame.

Knar buckles.

Head on over to the Osiris website for a short interview with Stu Graham. As usual it's an entertaining insight into the world of The Manbeast. Although how anyone from outside Scotland can understand what he says when it's written form is beyond me. Drop us an e-mail if you need any translations.

Stu Graham Interview.

You'll have to speak up I'm wearing a towel!

Collaborations are ten a penny these days but every now and then something special comes along. To coincide with the release of The Simpsons Movie, Vans comissioned 14 artists to design a shoe featuring the worlds most famous family. Stash, Kaws, Mr Cartoon, Jeff McFetridge, Futura and Neckface amongst others came up with some incredible creations which unfortunately for me and pretty much everyone else on the planet were only available in very limited numbers. Check out E-bay for the already daft prices these are fetching. Oh and if anyone has a size US9.5 in the Kaws shoe get in touch!!
