STUCK IN CHICAGO

Just got back from the UPS Store and holy hard nipples is it cold.  Anyhow, i like to present to you our very first sticker.  Made to resist the harsh Chicago weather this sticker is constructed of vinyl and measures a healthy dimension of 2.25 X 2.5 inches.

I think its time to make some rounds…

If you like what you see and fancy the idea of FREE, shoot an email to alvin24@gmail.com with the following info:

1. Your Name

2. Your Address

3. Reason why you want some stickers

4. Pictures of you on your two wheeled monster

Oh you can also get these stickers at St. Alfred’s ( We dropped off 70 stickers yesterday the 28th, so go fast before they run out )

You can also get the Chicago Fixed Tee’s at our online store.

(10/29/08) Edit

The stickers will continue to be free until midnight tonight (10/29/08)

As much as we’d like to continue to ship the stickers out for free, we will have to start charging a minimal fee of $1.00 for the cost of Postage.

Thanks again for the support

CRUISIN DOWN WENTWORTH

OVER THE WEEKEND

Started the morning off to a healthy portion of White Castle Burgers.  What they don’t show you in the movies is their killer Chicken Rings.  It sounds a little strange and looks a little shady, but they sure taste great!

Random shots off Michigan

Saw this little cart on the way over to Reza’s.  Whoever’s inside this little compartment bikes around the city and performs a puppet show for pedestrians. If you look closely you can see the little strobe light and disco ball that adds to the groove of the puppeteer.

Its a FIXIE!

Chicago Chinatown at 5:00 AM

Pet Bat

Threadless Chicago, their first brick and mortar location that sits on N. Broadway.  The exterior of this spot is completely covered with stickers from top to bottom.  You can tell that the stickers even run below the big billboard at the front of their store.  Cool spot with an upstairs that’s dedicated to art.

What if there really were huge flying eyeballs that were attached to their flesh bonding tissues that flew around huge apartment complexes.  What do you think they’re looking for?

Or what if knives fell out pink clouds instead of raindrops.

NOT ALL BAGGAGE IS BAD

Take a glimpse at one of the new projects we’re working on.  I call it, sophistication on a budget.  Here we have a classic houndstooth pattern with pops of purple thrown into the mix.

This sample was constructed entirely from re-appropriated fabrics.  Even the straps are recycled!

Reinforced stitching so the goodies you’re carrying stay with you.

And last but definitely not least, straps for bike lights!  Safety first.

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME DUFF LOVE?!

Last month I showed off some of my new toys - Kid Robot’s Simpsons series of vinyl toys.  Opening boxes after boxes I was left feeling disappointed.  I didnt get my Duffman!   Well almost a moth later I found this sitting on my desk.

DUFFMAN!
