In the blance of power between, good and evil, or evil vs evil, or good vs good . There is a fight of strategy between the oppositions. Most people are comfortable and never see them selves as the sheep that are being hearded.  Most don’t ever think they are a part of what is called “the blind leading the blind”.  In order for one side to win, they must have thee ultimate influence over the majority. They can fool everyone else, but they won’t fool me.

This isn’t a conspiracy theory..this is the fashion industry.

There are tons of ways to describe Jean Michel Basquiat. I’ve always looked at him as the person that bridged street art -and high society. What he did for  street style, is bigger than his art. I was just a pup when he died, wish i got to meet him.

As we are in preparation for moving into our 4th office space in 4 years I had to go through and sort out what to keep and what to throw away/donate. In the process I found my old college notes books with these words written on almost every note book. “Trust the process not the product”. I guess even at an early age I was obsessed with how things are made.

always good to see long time friends.

Ever since I started at Levi’s I have been completely obsessed with making my own pair of denim from scratch…and i mean scratch. I will first start by making my own loom.

Step 1. build the loom.

Here are some blue prints from the turn of the century.

Here’s a video of what this loom looks like when its all built.

I estimate building the loom will take 60 hours, weaving 2 yards another 20 hours, pants pattern another 3 hours, cut&sew another 8 hours, and finishing touches another 2 hours.

So, i guess i talked myself out of it. Where am i gonna get this kind of time??
