Orisue Beer Pong Set

In general I just love when smaller street labels take a step outside of clothing and are able to come out with fun and innovative lifestyle products. Well Orisue has touched a heart string with this one, as they just released an official beer pong set.



I think every college loving, borderline alcoholic, street wear head is going to eat this up (or drink it up... ha.. ha). I think Orisue has just set the bar for SwaggerDap, and we now have to come out with a beer pong table set.

Each set includes: 22 cups. 11 with “away” and 11 with “home” printed on them. 2 ping pong balls with Orisue logo printed on them. Printed Orisue “house rules” according to our own version of the game.

For only $15 you can grab this awesome set right from Orisue.

It's been one year, six months, and thirty days since we started this blog, and damn have we come a long way. Been through 4 cameras, more countries than I would have imagined, and met some really amazing people. I used to get mad when Meezy would blog about his lunch, and now we're being sourced by the likes of Hypebeast and Honeyee, as well as actually making a difference for some of these brands. And even with all of that, I promise that this is just the beginning.
Some of you have been with us from day 1 and some of you might be reading this as your very 1st SwaggerDap visit, so here are just a handful of pictures to catch you up on the past year and a half...


We started in this little cubicle at Syracuse University with an idea and a ton of work to do...

Up at Syracuse we got into some shenanigans, which for some reason usually involved taking some traffic paraphernalia, or in this case shopping carts...

We also happened to move out to Hong Kong for a few months...

Visited South East Asia where, as you can see, we were treated like celebrities...

On our travels we hit up crazy releases everywhere from Juice in Hong Kong...

To Bodega in Boston...

And saw some amazing works like the Michael Lau Crazy Force One exhibit...

Also had the chance to build with tons of great people, like Marcus Troy in Montreal...

Got to meet NERD at the BBC/ Ice Cream store ...


And if you ever had the chance to hang out with us, you know we like to have fun and act like idiots all the time...

Like when we had the BBQ of fake Jordans and Bape...

And when Meezy met the mysterious girl in the white dress up in Toronto...



Overall I just want to thank everyone who visits the blog, the brands that we have built such great relationships with, anyone who has retweeted a blog post, and all of the people who have taken time to listen to our ideas and help us build what we have. Special thanks to Yom and Joan for your help, you're coming with us on this ride.

So keep it locked to SwaggerDap, and I feel like a broken record, but you won't be disappointed with what we have in store.

SwaggerDap Loses to an Indestructible TV

After a semester of abuse (both verbal and physical) and over a decade of use, it was time to throw out my old trusty Zenith TV that had brought me such great entertainment for years. However, since we have to overdo everything, it wasn't enough to just throw the TV out. We were determined to destroy it.
Here is attempt one at the destruction.....

(Warning! this is not streetwear or fashion related in any way. But we found it funny)

After that miserable failure, we had to bust out the big guns. We brought in the stunt team for this one ...
(Make sure you pay attention at about :30 in too)

I don't even know if Zenith TVs are still made but if they are I highly suggest getting one as a long term investment.

So as you saw, TV 2 - SwaggerDap 0 ... this was one epic and disappointing failure for us, the last option was to throw it off of a canyon but that just would have required too much effort. At least we were able to fuck up a microwave, throw a couch out of a window and shatter a bowl in the process, so it was all worth it.


Back to reality.
