Karmaloop, Supply Circuit and Android Homme got together and created a bit of history.
Limited to just 50 pairs worldwide, The Supply Circuit x Android Homme Propulsion drops at the flagship store this Friday, September 3rd, with a banger going down in tribute to the occasion. Our dudes Frank White and Rick Rude will be on the wheels of steel from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., with free drinks, giveaways and much more to celebrate the collaborative drop.
While the new Propulsion has been kept under tighter wraps than a mummy at a freestyle cipher, we can’t give you all of the details just yet - we can, however, let you know that the shoe will feature lambskin, perforated, patent and full-grain leather detail throughout, with satin lining, a custom hand-tag, and collaborative print on the tongue – check out some tasty

We’ll have much more for you leading up to Friday’s drop, so stay tuned! In the meantime, be sure to check out Android Homme’s uber-futuristic collection at Karmaloop here.
Directed by our dude Daymon Green, photographer, musician, designer, director and all-around renaissance man Michael Sterling Eaton profiles one of New York City’s hottest up-and-coming boutiques, Coat of Arms (COA).
Offering dead-stock sports apparel, collectible vinyl toys, and new streetwear, the eighties-loving Lower East Side shop is adorned with illustrated skateboards that clash beautifully with the swirly violet-paisley wallpaper while a mixture of hip-hop and hits from eighties icons like David Bowie play overhead. Angled, built-in shelves display an array of dead-stock knit caps sporting logos for the Lakers, Knicks, Giants, Bulls and more with the extensive selection of pro-sports fan clothing spanning one full side of the store. For those more interested in dated logos than sports, racks in the rear of the store hold vintage North Face windbreakers, throwback neon JanSport fanny packs, plaid Ralph Lauren button-downs, Reebok gear, and Mercedes Benz, Cadillac, and FILA tee shirts, not to mention Kidrobot hoodies and dead-stock KangaROOS sneakers.
Be sure to check out COA if you’re in the Five Boroughs – otherwise, check out some of our similar brands in Vintage Eyewear, And Still x For All to Envy and Vintage Deadstock.
Braydon Szafranski, he who rides for COMUNE, Baker Skateboards, Independent Trucks, NEFF, Hubba Wheels and the infamous SHAKE JUNT set, is truly one of the gnarliest, most innovative and downright dangerous motherfuckers on the scene… and that’s just dude’s fashion sense.
Ignoring B SZA’s COMUNE signatures for just a moment, Braydon is one of the few riders we look out for like nighthawks when new skate flicks get dropped off at our desk. He never disappoints, always impresses and gives us that more incentive to go out and rip right after work. To skate as hard as Braydon goes out on the daily, your gear has to be tough, durable, and without a single flawed stitch. Here’s where COMUNE comes in.
The brand’s primary focus is to provide gear that reflects a lifestyle of “carefree idealism” and to support the people that choose to live by those non-guidelines – Braydon is certainly one of those folks, and his signature threads reflect COMUNE’s goal like a bad acid trip. Check ‘em out:
The B SZA Jacket in Classic Blue; in Dark Indigo (and Black Wax).
The B SZA Jean in Classic Blue; The Braydon Jean in Black.

Gawwwd-DAMN…
Mishka just released a video look book highlighting some of the brand’s pieces that will bless the site in just a few days… and it’s worth watching way more than once as Mishka go-to model Chloe Wise absolutely steals the show.
The Death Adders and Keep Watch logos are all back in full, new effect, as is the brand’s distinct, trademark street-prep-style, vibrant colorways, killer cut & sew and all-around fun, fun, fun.
Looks like Mishka has some killer shit on deck for the autumn season – click the video (shot by the notorious Fame Giant) above to check it out, and get a closer look at the collection’s photo look book here.
After losing our favorite intern to the perils of going back to college, we just realized that “Back to School” season is in fullllll motherfuckin’ effect. Therefore, we’re sending our former boot-licking doormat and the rest of you lil’ geniuses back to class, with class.
Of course, by that we mean “fat drunk and stupid.”
John Belushi’s iconic Animal House role as seventh-year Delta Tau Chi Fraternity degenerate Bluto Blutarsky is simply unparalleled, and our man’s style is right up there as well. From the notorious “College” sweatshirt to togas and back to the classic early-60′s duds dude rocks throughout the film, Bluto is truly a fashion muse like no other.
Check out our Swagger Jack of Bluto featuring the almighty ORISUE crew:
The Vaughn Jacket; The Hopesborough Buttondown Shirt.
The Loopy Tee; The Architect Classic Fit Wool Pant.

KarmaloopTV and the resident Faded Streets crew hooked up for a pub crawl of epic proportions – rather than romp and wobble through The Hub like a bunch’a pussies, The Filthy Faded grabbed their decks, donned all-white gear, and made a mission of becoming the dirtiest (literally and figuratively) motherfuckers in town.
Killing shit ensued… check out the video above, and vote for Faded as the best “Band of Buds” in the land!
… gets blogged right here!
Karmaloop raged through Las Vegas for the annual S.L.A.T.E./MAGIC trade show last week, and the highlight of the trip was definitely the epic bash at Haze nightclub.
We had family from Dirty Debutantes, VGB, Crooks & Castles, Flüd Watches, ®Society Original Products, Hellz Bellz and SneakTip in the building (if we forgot anyone, all apologies – we still can’t remember how we even made it home), so it was great to re-connect and build with our buds – and with Statik Selecktah on the decks and the Jabbawockeez on stage, it was one hell of a fuckin’ night!
Can’t wait for next year’s jam! In the meantime, we’ll have

Big shouts to Hennessey Black, Haze Nightclub, Aria Hotel and of course Las Vegas and the lovely people who partied with us! Be sure to join us (or DIE) on Facebook to see even more flicks from the event, and check out the KarmaloopTV video below!
Brian Schroeder, a.k.a. Pushead, is not just another artist to us at The Blogs. Pushead is THE artist.
Our love affair with Pushead started in the fifth grade as just another skate brat elbowing for room at the local park with our Zorlac x Pushead Pirate One signature deck. Thanks in part to an unhealthy obsession with thrash metal and hardcore punk – namely Metallica and The Misfits, both of which frequently collaborated with Schroeder for album and tee shirt art – Pushead’s art and music with his own band, Septic Death, was all we needed to properly piss off parents, teachers, police and all else who dared to diss us.
Quick fact: We started wearing all of our tees inside-out following a nasty confrontation with a math teacher who got us suspended for wearing a “grossly offensive” Pushead-designed tee (still have the school letter sent home with us, high comedy). Rather than trash it, we wore the tee (and just about every other since) inside-out until it was left in stained, smelly tatters.
Needless to say, we’re fuckin’ stoked to see the great tradition of corrupting young, impressionable minds continue with The Specimen Tee (below). The Altamont collaboration with Pushead features one of dude’s signature skull n’ bones designs, this time trapped for an eternity within the confines of a laboratory jar. Check it out below, and definitely stay on the look-out for more from Pushead and Altamont!
