Karmaloop Story
I think most of you streetwear enthusiast already know the Karmaloop store but do you know the story behind it? Heres a video that explains how Karmaloop got into business, I dont remember how I ended up ordering stuff from them but I remember they had some stuff I couldnt get in my area and seemed professional enough plus they offered hassle free international shipping and payment via paypal these are two must haves for your online store!! slow shipping without tracking no# and no way to pay via paypal? forget it!. Plus they almost always offer some kind of 10-20% off coupons and had nuts sales over the last holiday seasons with up to 75% off, I tell you my last order only took 3 days to arrive “local” onlinestores cant beat that.
Use coupon code CD31270 on checkout to get 20% off on first orders !

KAWS x Beautiful Losers x Nike
Kaws is one of my favorite artists, he started out with streetart “defacing” billboards and advertisements at bus stops etc. with his now famous designs.
You might have spotted some of his work already without knowing it because he works with alot of artists from every kind of field like musicians, fashion designers etc.
He also did several covers for magazines and recently did the special edition LP cover for the latest Kanye West Album 808′s & Heartbreaks.
He has his own “fashion” brand called OriginalFake, make sure to check that out too. Read the rest of this entry »
