Kindness "House"

Can't decide who is cuter here: Kindness's Adam Bainbridge, or Ramon, the kid he's teaching how to make dance music. Ok, whatever, it's a tie: They are both adorable. Kindness plays New York this Thursday, and Philly this Friday, and we hope Ramon's with them.

The Aetherstream at Field Study

Farm Tactic's Kyle Ng has set up shop at Space 15 Twenty with Field Study, a month-long pop-up that features some of the coolest outdoor gear around. So cool, even, that this past weekend the Aetherstream came by for a visit.

Jack Spade and Mister Mort

Great styling by street style spotter Mister Mort with Jack Spade's summer suiting collection. Believe it or not, wearing a suit in warmer months is not impossible, it just takes the right fabrics. I think Mort did a great job pairing patterns and textures to keep things interesting. See more from the set here. -Bob

BOTB by Hellz Bellz Footwear

It may not be Hellz Bellz first foray into footwear but it's the first official for the label all by themselves and they killed it! The perfect color ways and sick design of all three shoes will definitely have everyone anxious to get their hands on a pair! X - Jen

Cleartones

I can't help but be a tiny bit annoyed when my cellphone rings and interrupts my conversations or train of thought. Thankfully, I came across Cleartones, a collection of beautifully minimal ringtones that make the world sound a bit better with it's subtle and refined notifications. Says it's creators, sound designer Hugo Verweij and designer Joachim Baan, ‘A ringtone should gently add a functional sound to the soundcape of our lives: Like a ripple in the sand of a curvy desert dune or sparks of sunlight reflecting in the water.’ Check it out here—a tweet gets you a sample download. -Jennilee

The Twilight Days of Hellawood

The lovely folks over at Space 15 Twenty put together this photo shoot to celebrate the last week of Hellawood and capture some of the awesome surf looks available in the shop. Stop by the Hellawood closing party this Friday from 7-10pm, and consider this week like that last long week of summer, when the water's still warm, but the air is cool and you know school is right around the corner. Yes, it is just that sad...

BabySkateboards

BabySkateboards' skate packs at Ship & Shape are pretty fucking awesome.  Along with a one-of-a-kind deck (hand-pressed, decorated, and carved by Minneapolis boys Jake Stein, Tim Hudson, and Fletcher Barnhill, and with wood sourced through Wisconson by Jay from American Sports Laminate), you'll get a cool tee, custom grip-tape, and a cassette filled with local bands from Soothing Almonds Collective Records to play while you cruise.  Sounds like a pretty dope deal to us.

Employee Prom Stories: Arthur Velocette

Since prom is a night you'll always remember, we asked some of our employees to dig deep into their memories and share their stories (and photos) with us.

Employee: Arthur Velocette, Senior Corporate Merchandiser-Mens

"I have no rational explanation for this photo except that it was the '90s and I was president of the drama club. The theme of my prom was "Stairway to Heaven" as you can tell by the completely unrelated plywood gazebo in the background. Needless to say, I did not "score" that night."

Spin To See Who Pays Bottle Opener by Hyde

Derek Brahney and Edge Trullinger, with Kate Jones of Ursa Major, have made a really interesting brass bottle opener that's based on a design from the early 1900s. If it points to you, then you've got the next round! Available at Partners and Spade.-Jennilee

Employee Prom Stories: Vanessa Romeo

Since prom is a night you'll always remember, we asked some of our employees to dig deep into their memories and share their stories (and photos) with us.


Employee: Vanessa Romeo, Men's Assistant Designer

"This photo is from my 2004 prom.  The prom itself was pretty lackluster. We left early and went to the local Denny’s with another couple, where one diner called me Gwen and asked for my autograph (I did not give it). I later found out I was voted best dressed, which just shows how little effort everyone else put into the night."

Coffey Chat "It's a Makeover!"

OPOSSOM "Blue Meanies"

Combine an episode of the Power Rangers with 3D glasses, clips of Yellow Submarine, and two tabs of acid, and you'll get OPOSSOM's Blue Meanies video.  Directed by Sam Kristofski, the video features model Zippora Seven as she walks through the woods and runs into some pretty weird folk.  We can't get enough of the '50s style hypnoses, old-school action TV show vibe, and psychedelic watercolor animations—it's our new favorite.
