Clips from a Jean Luc Goddard Movie, and Who isn't inspired by New Wave film? Here's a remix that borderlines cheese and good nostaligia, but i figured it was worth sharing anyways. (after all im a sucker for this shit)

EVAN VOYTAS - I RUN WITH YOU, SPIRIT ANIMAL

I Run With You, Spirit Animal from Evan Voytas on Vimeo.

You might remember me blogging about Evan Voytas about a year ago on my old blog Reading Over Breakfast, more likely, you dont know what im talking about. Here's a new video by Voytas, looking a lot like Faris Bueller doing karaoke.

BAMBOO MAGIC

I first saw this video at Afrigadget, a website dedicated to African ingenuity. Usually I turn to Afrigadget for art inspiration when working with repurposed materials, although after seeing this post I couldn't help but be inspired as a man of style. Lekuama Ketuafor, a teacher from the southwest region of Cameroon, saw potential within his immediate surroundings. Lekuama took bamboo, an over looked, low cost, renewable resource, and turned it into a beautiful and labor intensive craft. Its amazing what someone can do with a set of simple hand tools, glue, varnish and endless creativity. In addition to heading his own one-man cottage industry, Lekuama is looking damn good doing it, head to toe in his own designs of Bamboo Magic wear.

How To Make It In America: The Mixtape

I'm sure we all by now have heard of the new HBO series How To Make It In America,(the one with Kid Cudi) but if you havn't already,you should atleast go download the How To Make It In America Mixtape:
(Just click the "mixtape" tab) http://facebook.com/howtomakeit

Also if you havnt got HBO, The theme song for the show, "I Need a Dollar" by Aloe Blacc is also worth downloading. Its a single from Aloe Blacc's forth coming album Good Things, produced by Truth & Soul. Blacc started out as MC for indie hip-hop group Emanon in the 90's but has been independent for sometime now. His powerful voice and jazzy R&B style has earned him the nick name "The Indie R. Kelly", but as far as Ive heard, he prefers girls his own age...

Red Wing

Yesterday I mentioned Red Wing Boots as my next buy, so I thought I'd share with you a little insight into the iconic nature of Red Wing as an All-American Work Boot. For over a hundred years they have been trusted as the boot of choice for most American labor workers, (I know my Grandfather has an old pair I'd love to steal if his foot wasn't so small.) If you're a working man, you are sure to appreciate the quality and durability of pair of red wings. As a Display Coordinator, i often feel like a construction worker, so for me, a good pair of boots is pretty essential. Im kinda losing my mind these days as my pair of vintage Justin boots are completely worn out at this point.

Recently Complex.com's Cut & Show series took a tour of the Red Wing Factory in Minnesota, you can check out that video at their site here. The video is a little dry but worth checking out if you're well rested and want a lil' history lesson. Either way, As work wear styles continue to inspire designers this year, Red Wing is an appropriate boot for those who grind hard on their feet, and want to look good doing it.

J Crew has a few styles worth checking out or you can always buy direct.

Adidas x Star Wars Part II

This Saturday Part II of Adidas x Star Wars collection, the Vehicle Pack, takes off over at End Clothing. This time, 5 classic Adidas styles have been remixed based off Star Wars vehicles like the X-Wing and even the Millennium Falcon. Personally, I'm all about the AT-AT although my leather shoe fetish has a pair of Red Wing boots next on my splurge list. But for all you Sneaker Heads, this shit is limited quantity, so be prepared to spend some euros.

Efterklang - Modern Drift

Modern Drift by Efterklang from Rumraket on Vimeo.

Modern Drift is the opening song on Efterklang third studio album, Magic Chairs, which dropped back in February. In the fine tradition of Efterklang videos, this visual gem carries its own weight versus an already beautifully epic track. Made by Kristian Leth from The William Blakes (www.speedofsound.dk), the imagery was apparently inspired by "Dyrehaven, den Romantiske Skov", a film from 1970 by the acclaimed artists Per Kirkeby and Jørgen Leth (Kristian’s father).

"Stayin Fly"

These Denim Trousers are one of the latest additions to designer Stephan Schneider's Spring line over at Opening Ceramony. While I'm completely digging the look and boxy construction of these pants, I'm a little thrown off by the lack of a zipper.. I'm thinking i could thrift some mom jeans that might give me a similar look without the urinal delay.
