Know1edge x Fiberops Stadium Jacket

Hong Kong's Know1edge and Fiberops have teamed up for this "Mahjong 'n Moonlight" stadium jacket.




Not normally a fan of stadiums but this jacket actually doesn't look too bad, especially since it's repping HK.
Mahjong n Moonlight is written across the wool back with the leather sleeves featuring patches for each brand as well as some with the Hong Kong flag. As a celebration of HK the "Mahjong 'n Moonlight" jacket is available exclusively at 8FIVE2SHOP in Causeway Bay.

All Gone 2008

After every year of cool, innovative, well designed, and limited product releases there is only one book to look to for the recap, and that book is All Gone.



All Gone 2008 is the one and only thorough recap of everything relevant in the street scene over the past year. The 256 page publication will be even more limited than last year with only 1000 copies being printed. So Meezy, if we have anything in the account, I suggest we blow it on this.

Release details soon, but keep checking Colette's estore.

A Little Something Different

While browsing the internets recently I came across the work of design student Nancy Wu who has done some really interesting work involving Nike, LV, and Chanel.

1st up are these "Remixed and Recut" Nike runner/ sandals.

Then, in a much more out of the box project there are some designer goods made out of 100% beef jerky.
Every detail stitched up.


Really creative work and great craftsmanship, check out Nancy Wu's site for more of her work.
