Chris and me made our way to Mainz today to check out this summer’s Stijl. It is the 3rd installment and basically a trade fair for fashion and design and still running tommorow from 11:00 – 18:00, if you want to cope some sale items or also items from new collections. You can’t miss Adrian and his freiraum booth, since it is the first one you’ll see, when you get in.

If you want to, you can grab something to eat, buy something to drink, play some new form of boccia, skate with fingerboards or have your photo taken in two old school armchairs. They also have a stage with rappers and a DJ performing, but the music was quite nerving from time to time. Anywayz, I got myself a nice new The Hundreds Snapback, that will come out with the Fall 2010 collection later this year, from Ibrahim (A-Game Distribution). Since he is a former pro ball player for Frankfurt, we were also talking a little bit about the last Skyliners season.

I also found this book about Banksy‘s streetart at 50% off and this Ucon Strap Wallet. I hope it is finally the wallet I was looking for since the last few months, as it is designed by the German brand out of Berlin, so it fits our ID card perfectly and also has a snap-fastener for the coin pocket. Just like Sheed does it with the strap on his Air Force 1s, I think I’m gonna wear it with the strap dangling, too.

19th & 20th June 2010, 11:00 – 18:00: Stijl Mainz @ Alte Waggonfabrik, near Phönixhalle, Hauptstraße 17 – 19, 55120 Mainz – www.stijl-mainz.de
