Acapulco Gold Fall 2009 New Era Caps


We get a first detailed look at the New Era cap offering of the Acapulco Gold Fall 2009 Collection. Once again the New York brand manages to bring something new, yet classic to the table. We always liked their timeless approach to design, which is also the case in this season’s line-up. Several new designs come in several colorways and will be released in stores soon.

Nike SB Eugene Backpack


Nike SB has come out with two new colorways for their Eugene Backpack, and I must say they are F*N dope. One is all red (CHEA!!!) and the other is mulit-colored consisting of carolina blue, navy blue, red, yellow, white, etc. I'll definitely be looking to cop one of these for the new school year. View detailed images of both bags below and hit up In4mation to purchase. Phone orders welcomed. Facebookers if you can't see the pics, view the original post youngandinfamous.blogspot.com

The Sickest Tee I have Seen In A While! UNDRCRWN - “M.V.Penny” Tee


Fresh from UNDRCRWN today is the new “M.V.Penny” Tee, pitching NBA’s infamous little puppet from the 90s, Lil Penny against Brooklyn-bred music icon, Jay Z. Since so many of us had enjoyed little puppet versions of LeBron and Kobe, it’s time we get a quick reminder of their predecessor. This new t-shirt features lyrics from Jay-Z’s “Who You Wit II” and is available in black, white, grey heather and royal blue for a limited run. These are now available through Pick Your Shoes.

Jeremy Scott X adidas Originals - Fall/Winter 2009 - Map Sweater Dress

Jeremy Scott X adidas Originals   Fall/Winter 2009   Map Sweater Dress

Jeremy Scott’s latest collaboration release with adidas Originals is a remix of last season’s funky animal prints and a new tune singing “one world, one love”. While some of the hoodies from this season feature leopard spots flanking altruistic preachings of “Global Love”, and some others reminding us of tribal cultures with totem pole faces and masks, the Map Sweater Dress stands out from the collection with a form fitting girly silhouette and large print of the world. This long sleeved sweater dress features the world map flattened out onto a tee in bright colors, and can be worn as both a dress and a long t-shirt. This dress makes us want to break into KT Kunstall’s “Suddenly I See”, except, this time it is her body that is the map of the world. The Map Sweater Dress is now available through Opening Ceremony along with other Jeremy Scott X adidas Originals items.

Jay-Z x KanYe West x Rihanna=Run This Town


The first official single off The Blueprint 3 (9/11/09). Feeling the beat, flow is nice, Ye killed it, I have one problem...f*n Rihanna! I cannot stand her voice! It would've been better if Yeezy harmonized on the chorus. But whatever, what do I know? I don't make these songs...I only blog about them.

Sweet Shit!!! The Super Soaker is back!


Remember those hot summer days running around the neighborhood and rousing a ruckus in your neighbor’s yard with that glorious Super Soaker? We can’t believe it’s been 20 years, but one of the childhood summer favorites, the Super Soaker 50 has just released a 20th Anniversary Edition to commemorate the special year. This is almost identical to the original Super Soaker 50 that started all summer fun 20 years ago, but with some powerful updates such as a super plaster that holds up to 25 oz of water which shoots up to 35 feet. Attacking your friends and neighbor’s dog is now even easier after 20 long years.

Damn! If you can't remember the face, this is the lead lady from T.I's "Why U Wanna" video. Man I fell in love with her (& that song) right after I saw that video LOL. But anyways, this lady doesn't want to anymore videos, unless it's a HUGE one & she's the lead lady again. She has aspirations of being an actress. Truthfully speaking...I could careless what she does with her career, as long as she looks this good! AKIRA TORII
