Young And Heartless Madallion

FKB's own Phresh recently made an extremely dope piece for an up and coming line we have called "Young and heartless". The line will strictly consist of T-Shirts, belts, and hats. If you take a look at it, you can see it has a huge letter "Y" on the front and takes the shape of a heart with the negative sign next to it (Meaning Heartless). Phresh is already known for his creativity with what we call the medallions and has made everything from the 1st letter of our names to the "FKB" medallion and the "BC" piece (Breakfast Club). All serv as promotional use for what we have planned. However, if you like his work you can ask him to customize a piece for you, and depending on the material needed, is how your price is determined. Catch him at twitter.com/phresh2deff

Brotherhood Performance

Once again FKB's own Mr. YoutuBe was at a recent festivity and showcased just how good his BrotherHood really is. Partially in response to the criticism they receive because people thing they can only dance to "lite Feet" music, here they are dancing to popular mixed songs we all are fond of. Some of BrotherHood's most recognizable faces were part of this including, Marky mark, Vick Live, and Flii Boogie. Enjoy!

Unrivaled Fall/Winter 2009 Collection | Hunter Jacket and Hat

Two of our favorite pieces from the Unrivaled Fall/Winter 2009 Collection have been released this week – their new take on the classic hat and the Hunter Jacket. The jacket takes its inspiration from several other classics – we see the quilted jacket, the hunter jacket and the varsity jacket in the mix. The outcome is fantastic and possibly one of the highlights of the entire season. The hats look solid as well and come in overall three colorways. Both pieces are now available from Elt. (info via HighsNobiety)

Wings + Horns x Cool Cats Varsity Jacket Available

The collaboration Wings + Horns x Cool Cats varsity jackets have been released today. The jackets that come without the patches as part of the Wings + Horns Fall/Winter 2009 Collection, have been enhanced by the French label with a large chest patch, collaboration inner tag and lining. If the regular version is a little too subtle for your taste, you might want to check out this one. It is now available in two colorways from colette.

Sneakers Of The Day:: Martin Margiela High Top “Cut-Out” Sneakers

The Martin Margiela High Top Sneakers also came out last season in a special cut-out version. Parts of the sneaker are left open, making sure you have enough ventilation going on during the warmer months of the year. Look out for these at Martin Margiela retailers now. Pricing can range anywhere from $600-800

Its not what you wear.. its HOW you wear it.

The most anticipated rapper as of late HAS to be Drake. The guy can sing (harmonize) rap, and the girls seem to like him. BUT you cant have it all. Drake simply doesnt know how to wear his clothes. I wasnt even gonna post this but me and swiss had a discussion about what everybody wore in the "Forever" vid. And Drake looked the sloppest! But after careful analyzing, look at the worth of what he wore::

1. 10 DEEP SLIM & STRAIGHT DENIM
Click here to Buy It Now at Karmaloop, $104

2. SHADES OF GREIGE MOTO JACKET
Click here to Buy It Now at OAK, $149

3. MARTIN MARGIELA HI-TOP SNEAKER
Click here to Buy It Now at Oki-Ni, $511

If only he knew how to display this, that ensemble would have been CRAZY. Still a great rapper thought. Shoutout 2 Complex.com

More BBC Sweatshirts

BBC is proving more and more how diverse they can be. Above, you have the Billionaire Boys Club Space Beach Shawl Collar Cardigan. Sporting a classy cream color it stands out among other releases. The Billionaire Boys Club Space Beach High Neck Sweatshirt below is just as different and dope. It has a nice assortment of colors but doesnt do too much! Available now on the BBC Ice Cream blog. People think that their clothes are too expensive but understand that it is the quality that your paying for. NOT just the brand.


Yellow and Purple Nike SB Backpack

I dunno what to say about this besides this is one of the dopest backpacks Nike has produced in a while. It is jus one half of the New package for 09 that they are coming out with. This one pays homage to the team we all know for wearing purple and yellow (do i even need to mention their name?) Both bags will hit SB retailers next month

Sneaker of the Day:: Adidas Diagonial Campus



I've been meaning to post these for a while now but theres just been so many releases that we cant keep up! The sneaker is inspired by the Adidas Diagonal skate flick and features a red/white/blue design on the heel and a nicely contrasting gum sole. The Gum button is what does it for me and gives the sneaker its classic look. Availability info is slim but we'll keep you posted.
