Obey Fall 2009 Lookbook

We present you a first look at the Obey Fall 2009 Collection Lookbook. We have to say that we like a lot the direction of the brand. We see a lot of solid cut-and-sew with quite some outdoors inspiration, that is directly reflected in the lookbook style. Obey seems to take a more high end route in the future, at least in terms of look. Overall subtle, the collection seems to be easy to wear and match.

Take a look at the complete Obey Fall 2009 Collection Lookbook after the jump.

Sean Miller name drops Flavour...

above: Sean Miller

Cut & SHOW recently caught up with Sean Miller of Feedback Management Inc.

here is a selection of the interview:

Q: You travel a ton -- what cities are fashion-forward to you? Are there any surprise candidates, like ones in the middle of nowhere?

SM: Yeah! The one I always say is Peterborough, Ontario. The guys out there actually create a pretty cool culture. Mike Watt and his fiancee own three stores: Plush, Flavor and SOS (Save Our Souls), which is a shoe shop. Their involvement with the community, their product offering, their great customer service...and [Watt] always goes to Toronto to bring the stuff he really likes to the market out [in Peterborough]. Everyone knows the brands they're doing, and I think they're doing it quite well. That's good retail right there. If you come in like that, start these secondary markets and say, hey, I know what's cool and I like what's going on here -- how can I translate that to the community?

A-Trak & Armand Van Helden Are Duck Sauce

Duck Sauce is new musical collaboration between DJ A-Trak and Armand Van Helden, blending classic disco house with modern day production thump, (and apparently hollering at ducks.) Duck Sauce’s 4 track “Greatest Hits” EP is slated for a September release, but the 2 main tracks “aNYway” and “You’re Nasty” will be making their rounds this summer with Beatport DJs worldwide. A-Trak is excited to see how this one grows, and quite frankly so are we.

Check the behind the scenes interview to hear the duo talk about their influences, techniques and awesome name.

Freshjive drops Logo & Branding

In an interesting move Freshjive will be dropping all forms of logo placements and branding on their entire collection from Spring/Summer 2010. Rick Klotz has always had an issue with the business of branding, yet loves designing clothing and t-shirt designs. As a result he decided to no longer use the name Freshjive on any product coming from them. It’s a very interesting decision and we look forward seeing the impact of the decision.

After the jump you can take a look at how this no logo and no branding strategy translates onto their product.
