Customizable Sneaker Kit »

Came across this today on Uncrate – a kit that comes with waterproof paints, mixing bowl, brushes etc. It’s like Nike ID but for people with artistic talent (or lofty goals!). How cool.

The Great Twitter Secret Santa »

I know this hasn’t been active for awhile, there have been so many other projects going on I’ve lost track of this a little bit. For that I apologize.
To get the ball rolling again, take a look at the latest thing I’m working on:
The Great Twitter Secret Santa

The idea came from a brainstorm about [...]

Gray Levi’s »

I know this isn’t military related…but I just had to put this up, so bear with me.
Last weekend I was in Miami and forgot my jeans in the hotel…so I endeavored to find a new pair for the summer. I was walking down Broadway south of 8th St. and passed one of those storefronts [...]

Nike ID 6.0’s »

Hey All, I apologize for my absence…it’s been one thing after the next. From super busy at work to redoing my taxes over and over (the state of NY just doesn’t make it easy) to traveling, I’ve been silent and I’m going to try to do better from now on.

Designed by Burton, they are relatively plain and straightforward. A plaid [...]

Make a Splash this New Years »

New Years is approaching and so the texts and calls from friends have started to pour in. What color tie should I wear with this shirt? Should I go with the brown or black shoes? Round toe or square? I have been trying to answer all these as they come in, but for those who [...]

‘The Rolls Royce of Chocolate’ »

I tagged along with a friend who needed to pick up some last minute gifts yesterday and found myself in the newly opened, literally closet sized, NYC outpost of K Chocolatier.

K Chocolatier is the new line of luxury chocolates made by Diane Kron, who has been making chocolate for the stars (Andy Warhol, Jackie [...]

Some Classy Sneaks »

I generally avoid spending a lot of money of sneakers -not my cup of tea- but I have developed a soft spot for Onitsuka Tigers. They are so very comfortable and stylish. With a simple, retro design and classic cool, Tigers come in every variety of color and pattern.

Interesting note on the history of [...]
