Last Thursday, John and I went to XLARGE store in Los Angeles to check out DJ D-Styles and some really cool gear! For those of you who don't know who Dj D-Styles is, He has been around for years representing a crew called Invisible Skratch Piklez who have won a lot of dj battles in the Mid-90's and early 2000's, as well as the world famous Beat Junkies. He is known for his eclectic music and for being very skilled in the form of scratching. John and I caught up on the latest clothing, music, and art which consisted of actual pages ripped from black books of graffiti artists and X-Large's own Mickey Mouse hands inside the store walls which formed LA. I posted a flyer with the address and recommend that you check out this store if you are looking for some fresh street gear!


The king knew it all along, that inmate fashion would someday set a tread back into mainstream society. This prison issued style indigo shirt from Obey has got you covered. The construction of this chambray work-shirt can withstand a full days load of breaking up rocks with your mining pick. Attention to detail from the off white painted buttons, slightly sanded off. To the triple stitched finish and straight tailored shirttail hemline. Simply put you'll look stunning rocking this on a regular basis. The concept of prison clothing for the public is not a fairly new idea. In 1986 the influential Rap group Run DMC would wear their white Adidas Superstars "laced-free" during concerts. They eventually were called "Felon Shoes" due to the fact that prison inmates at the time always wore their prison issued shoes "laced-free". The purpose of the "laced-free" look was to deter the inmate from using the laces as a weapon to choke or strangle and also an object to be used for attempted suicide. This reason didn't stop many consumers, giving Adidas the idea to sign Run DMC for a hefty 1 million dollars.
