DEATH TOLL FOR SMOKERS

Wow, it actually does get updated. I thought it's just random numbers, but it actually increasing.
Yeah, I always take a picture every time I head to NikeTown or Westfield Century City Mall.

This electric billboard is located in Santa Monica Blvd. and Veteran Ave.

THE BLOCK AT ORANGE

Went along with Shoe Affliction to check out the Nike Factory Store in The Block at Orange.

For some reason, I was kinda overwhelmed at some shoes that I forgot to take pictures of the stock at the Nike Factory. Haha.

Then to Vans Skate Park. (No Pedo. Haha.)

My free Dirty Knuckles pins finally came through the mail. Thanks Ace Knuckles!

LONG ANGELES

Met up with Justin (who recently just moved from Hawaii to Carson for college). Decided to go to a couple of boutiques/shoe stores.

Showed him around Downtown Long Beach, where Proper, Seams, and Long Beach Fixed.

Then, headed out to Downtown LA in Little Tokyo for RIF-LA so Justin can get money for his Jordan V - Blk/Metallic.

Nike Dunk High Beautiful Loser.

1 of 1.

Manny and Murad were too busy moving shoe boxes here and there, then packing shoe boxes, and labeling them.

$5000.

Stacks of shoe boxes/shoes everywhere!


Afterward, went to Wilmington for some carne asada fries because Justin wanted to try it.
Albertas Restaurant - one of the few places that I know that makes/sells the "hidden menu" or not - Carne Asada fries.

Carne Asada fries.

Thanks Jeff for the Luke Meier x Vans Syndicate shirt!


QUICKSILVER

If you thought that doing tricks on a fixed gear or track bike was new, it's not.

NIKE DUNK SB LOWS - "IRON MAIDEN"

Yeah, crossing my fingers, but it'll be most likely to get scrapped because of copyright infringement. 99.9% getting scrapped and 0.01% being release.

HATS

In the hunt of anything "Los Angeles" and especially in Black/White colorway.
Must be size 7-1/4 or possibly 7-3/8.

Savory, L&L Hawaiian Barbecue® hamburger patties placed over rice, covered with brown gravy and topped with 2 eggs. Served island style…a local favorite!

Nike Dunk High Premium SB - "USA Flag"

First of all, I really like how Nike SB created these shoes because of the denim and it's ripple effect. Unlike the Resn SB...

There are actual 50 stars on the flag. (Yeah, counted them. Haha.)
But it's kinda too "Americanized".

AT ARCHRIVAL

Ah! It's one of those Saturdays that you don't know what to do or where to go. So, I decided to go to the Archrival x Black Scale release party.

I hit up and hitched a ride with Juan and Kevin(nice meeting you by the way) and thanks to Juan's aunt for the ride.

Chillin' in front of RIF-LA.
The "random" picture.

The "pose for the camera" picture.


From left to right.

Jeff is still in that "I don't give a fuck, I'm still working."
eDouche - starin' at something,(He is too cool for twitter)
Jaybee - ??? (check out his site - http://www.mtrlstc.net/)

Closing time and eDouche is trying to point at something. ???

A sushi that was laced with wasabi and and 2 Asahi Beers.

The collab shirt.

Black Scale.

I must say, Archrival's shirts are pretty dope and the designs are on point, but then the pricing is a bit pricey.

For some reason, "Los Angeles" got blocked.

I don't know. Haha.
