TUMBLIN’
Our friends Asaf Borgore and Jessie Andrews swung by the warehouse in the morning.
Considering how particular the Israeli dubstep producer can be with his clothes, I’m pretty honored that he loves our shoes so much. Jessie (NSFW!!) is super sweet; at 19, she’s one year into the porn business and is set to be the next breakout star.
Whoa. Speaking of our shoes, what’s up with the special blue colorway of The Hundreds’ shoeboxes? Hmm…
Like Jessie, my friend Sarah also runs a pretty awesome Tumblr. Unfortunately, not enough photographs of her on it.
And like Sarah, our cover girl for the next issue of The Hundreds Magazine, Jessica Clark, has a captivating Tumblr as well. Stay tuned – in the VERY near future, we’re gonna have an interesting announcement on our fifth issue of the magazine…

29 HOURS.
#Alexander Spit, #CBG, #Diamond, #Forever Summer, #RSWD, #The Hundreds
Alexander Spit, performing live at the The Hundreds x Diamond “Forever Summer“ collaboration release party in San Francisco Sunday night.
Rewind 18 hours.
At 4am, we chartered a bus for The Hundreds’ and Diamond’s crew, from Los Angeles to San Francisco and back in a day. Could they do it?
While I was warm in bed dreaming about Jennifer Connelly riding an electric kiddie horse in Career Opportunities, Natalia Brutalia was kind enough to document the journey across California.
Nelson’s face says it all. It was probably 6am here.
The bus made it to SF. Big sigh of relief. Alex Spit is ready to take the stage.
Has anyone seen Tony’s blog? I know I left it around here somewhere….
Jav Dolla scored a near-perfect on his SATs.
So Ben and I were planning on flying up for the event, but our flight got cancelled. All we heard was there was a ton of white girls at this party. At about this time, I was home watching Career Opportunities.
Skeet Skeet makes a cameo.
I’m sure Natalia could do a way better job captioning these photographs instead of filling all the blanks with obscure ’80s movie references.
BAGO.
CBG uncorks the evening.
If you don’t know, get familiar. CBG. CBG. CBG.
You can download their new mixtape, which just dropped, HERE.
Here we go. Alexander Spit.
If Bago doesn’t become super successful for her talent, I’m giving up on you, Music.
This is rreeeaaaallll RSWD.
At 2am, everyone piled back into the bus, imploded, and by 9am, showed up on our doorstep at the offices downtown. What a long. Strange. Night.

THE PERFECT STORM.
If you don’t live in Los Angeles, and don’t follow (or subject yourself to all the obnoxious complaining by) anyone from L.A. on your social networks, then you are definitely unaware of the torrential downpour that brought the city to its knees on Sunday. Streets were shut down, Melrose got flooded (even Brooklyn Dom was featured on the local news a few times today), and our flight to San Francisco to host the The Hundreds x Diamond release party with Alexander Spit got postponed 3 times before finally getting cancelled. Sorry, San Francisco…
But all was not lost, thanks to the faithful The Hundreds art crowd who weaved between raindrops to get to The Hundreds Santa Monica this afternoon. They came, pen and paper in hand, for a very special signing by world-renowned pop artist, Ron English, in commemoration of his collaboration with The Hundreds.
Ron was more than patient and warm to all his fans, taking time to draw them personalized sketches and caricatures. Considering his recent solo exhibition opened at Corey Helford over the weekend with patrons like Mike Shinoda and Chris Brown buying his paintings in the hundreds of thousands, I’d say a half-hour wait in line for a FREE one-of-a-kind Ron English piece may have been worth it.
You can now pick up the 3 The Hundreds by Ron English t-shirts online HERE.
Bonnie Hundreds proudly displays the “Cowgirl” tee.
Ron English wasn’t the only one being hit up for autographs.
My new friend here just moved to the I.E. from Illinois. Welcome to the Best Coast.
He’s a creative dude, and this is one of his projects.
A special thanks to Ron English and to all the fans who endured the rain for the successful signing. Perhaps not the last time you’ll hear of The Hundreds by Ron English? I hope not…

DREAMWEAVERS.
Down at Cashmere Agency, we’re building on some ideas with Whoopi and Kosta.
Cashmere is a marketing agency that deals with a breadth of clients, including the artists that Stampede Management represents, like Snoop Dogg and Far East Movement. Stampede’s located directly downstairs, both companies work together and are run by my old friend Ted Chung.
Here, Whoopi and Colin man the video department, working out the kinks on a funny Andy Milonakis piece.
If you build it (a green screen), they (Snoop Dogg and other famous rappers) will come (and film a music video).
Snoop celebrated his 40th with these 40s. Only 40 made. Woulda worked out so much better if it was Colt 40, not Colt 45.
Speaking of liquid courage, here’s the reverse of an energy drink : a beverage made with a lil’ bit of weed. Seriously. It hasn’t hit the market yet, it probably never will, but it leaves you with that real mellow yellow.
I jumped on the in-house podcast with some of the Cashmere/Stampede miscreants. First topic, and the one we discussed at length, were my thoughts on Occupy Wall Street. Next, and more imporantly, we talked about how McDonald’s apple pies are actually made with potato chunks and apple glaze, but NOT apples. Considering McDonald’s happy meals have replaced fries with sliced apples, this made my brain collapse.
Fuzzy Fantab is hilarious. He wants to know why we don’t make 3XL tees. And, to add insult to injury, why lead him on by putting a 3XL placeholder on our label? Fuzzy considers us the McDonald’s apple pie of Streetwear for that one.
