Aiight you all have seen my gadget wishlist (well at least the first part of it), so here is wishlist number two, the gear edition. I am a stern believer that clothes makes the man...on this theory I have had my good days and bad days as well, but when Im on, I go hard...
First up, the new Nike Trainer 1. They remind me of the first edition cross trainers the "Bo Jackson's". They look light as hell and come in several colors. The ones I had were the charcoal and black joints. This edition comes in a couple of different colors..
Cheap Monday Unwash Autobahn Jeans... A decent pair of jeans that you can rock with pretty much anything...they hella practical and cheap too. They only $65, and that says much for hip jeans today. These joints right here can be worn out around town at the club, just chillin with the homies, or slummin at the neighborhood coffee shop. Now if I can find a store that sells em, they good as got. I wonder if they come in different colors and washes and what else Cheap Monday has in store. Im just glad they aint none of them tight ass Fall Out Boy skinny jeans. No disrespect to the group, I aint tryin to squeeze my sack in none of dem shits...
2Unfold Bag - This aint no "man purse" or none of that other metrosexual ass shit. This is a full fledge multifunctional, multi-personality grown ass man bag. This is the Optimus Prime of travel gear...it transforms into 8 count 'em 8 different bag configurations: Urban Briefcase, Shoulder Bag, Safe Case, Rucksack, Leather Clutch, Canvas Clutch, Leather Courier Canvas Courier...This Italian handmade leather bag hold laptops from a 13" to 17" . Hell if you dont carry a laptop erywhere you go, the thing is just as cool to walk around with. Its got character and personality and probably after some wear and tear it'll be that much more better.
Another useful accessory (especially for me) is the Jack Spade Waxwear Flat Utility Bag -$425.
When you want to make an impression with a client or a potential client, this is the bag. The way photographers roll, with prints, proof books, portfolios, sketch pads, and even magazines. This waterproof joint can hold it... It has pockets on the inside and an external zippered pocket on the outside. I can hear my folks now, "If you get ONE MORE BAG!" Cue up Erykah Badu's Mama's Gun track number 12 and call me the bag man... Belive it or not I got one more bag on the list... here's another one.
Indiana Leather Adventure Duffel - $345.00
Made out 100% Scottish leather, this is the ultimate overnighter as far as Im concerned. The lower part has room for shoes (at least two pair). The center zip top opening bag has enough room for clothes and necessities, for a weekend getaway. Its classy and has an old school feel to it. A well dressed man will definitely turn heads with an accessory like this one. Step your game up, this aint no play clothes bag son, you MUST be on point with this one here.
Next, we have the Red Wing Iron Ranger Boot - $295.00
This boot is very much in the mold of classic style. It looks rugged but you know its a finely crafted boot. Leather upper, rubber sole, and a leather and cork insole. This boot can be worn with jeans, khaki's, even casual wear. (not shorts though...thats just too damn hood) I can surely see myself rockin this with a nice pair of jeans and a cream shirt or sweater...oh i know how to pull it off
You remember Swatch watches???? Yeah they were rubber and plastic, you could change the bands and had the rubber face protectors for em... Well they are gettin their grown and very sexy on right now. Pictured is the Swatch 007 Villain Collection priced between $60 and $235. A watch can do many things: make a statement, turn heads, but most importantly tell time. You get the right watch and you are really doin big things.... Im not talkin bout one of those big gaudy ass diamond crusted bevels that cost just as much as a small country. So in the words of Kool Moe Dee, "Do you know what time it is?"
