MO-MO

My motorcycle obsession is nothing new. Let my parents tell it - when I was a toddler I’d go nuts when one one drove by and I’d point and shout “MO-MO.” Before I could say the word motorcycle, momo was all my young brain could muster (quite an achievement if you ask me). Anyway, the latest fixation has me drawn to old 1970’s honda’s or kawasaki’s- can’t explain it it’s like a spidey sense. Check this site out wrenchmonkees.com they have the machines that I’ve been breaking my neck over lately. Craftsmanship.

NEW STUFF - Ric

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

I’ve been contemplating layers and the relationship between things physical and metaphysical, other dimensions and what not. How do each effect our appearance or our perception? or our preference?

Looking to show towards the end of the year.

Another jewel for the Prosperous sent by Fresh over at Fashion Hurts. The collabo with Good Wood is a good look. Here is what he had to say about the new peice:

“We are always looking for hot and interesting ways to promote the line. And Good Wood NYC has been an option for a while now. We were just waiting for the right time and the right design to be produced. Good Wood is an ill custom wood jewelry company based in Brookyn. If you are not familiar with them, you might be familiar with their work, Jay-Z wore their famous black Jesus piece on the cover of the XXL magazine last year. Since we have been running with our new mascot (bull-monopoly man), we decided that would be the best design to use. And voilĂ  …the chain might came out dope! Details are on point. Right now we haven’t decided if we are going to sell the bull chain, but you will be seeing it future photoshoots. And we are also going to get more pieces done, like some FH letters and a huge bull’s head.”
