He keeps himself busy working as a Puma Brand Advocate in the daytime (he usually laces us with kicks we wouldn't wear or don't want...haha) and when night falls he produces beats and creative vision for two different music/art crews. His better half, Audrey, who is literally the better half, is definitely better at bowling and is way nicer than him. They both hail from the South of France, but they won't hold that against you.

I think Keith and Mick had pretty much lost their minds by this point, but hey it was 1968 and it's more than likely what gave them the inspiration for this masterpiece. Salt of the Earth, Prodigal Son, Sympathy for the Devil, Street Fighting Man, etc... If you don't own this album, get it.

Hiroshi Fujiwara (world renowned design guru) teamed up with Nike for the HTM 400% vinyl Bearbrick. Research on this says that the HTM stands for "Hiroshi" Fujiwara of Fragment and "Tinker" Hatfield & "Mark" Parker of Nike. This 400% is constructed out of vinyl instead of the usual plastic with mechanical inner-workings. Not to mention it's about seven years old. Great for any Nike, Bearbrick or Fragment aficionado.

Beware of Fakes

2009-01-11T15:16:00.000-08:00

The short film "Dunny" is in no way associated with Kidrobot, however it does look fairly entertaining. It's a tale about an obese 11 year old American (of course, where else) boy named Dunny, who tries to win the affection of the most popular girl in his class by purposely getting the snot kicked out of him. Can't wait to watch it!
