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.
