Steve Madden and the Skater
Steve Madden designs shoes. My wife is a fan. I thought he just did women’s shoes, but apparently he does shoes for guys. I’m not sure what the back story is, but I’m going to go out on what I assume is a very, very strong limb and guess that the “Skater shoes line is […]
Forever Core
Thrasher shirts for sale in the teenybopper girls store at the mall? We’re not talking Hot Topic, although that would make more sense. This is Forever 21. Two things I should point out, the shirt does not actually appear on the front page of the web site, this is a doctored image. The Thrasher shirt […]
Prepubescent pop star ollies higher than me
His balls haven’t dropped, but he can acid drop. This is teenie bopper and recent musical guest on SNL, Justin Bieber in Teen Vogue. Man, he looks special in that outfit. [Source: Perez Hilton] – Thanks to Mrs Kilwag for the tip.
Radical Islam
This t-shirt is for sale over at Palmer Cash, but it’s imprtant to know that MC crystallized this idea in 2007.
Posh is Hardcore
Posh Spice spotted on the beach wearing sunglasses and an Indy hat. And you thought she was too cool to shop at the mall. Update: Here she is sporting a Girl Skateboards hat too.
Vogue Pelle
Skateboard as fashion accessory. This time from Vogue Pelle, which I thought was Italian Vogue, were it not for the existence of Vogue Italia. And there you have it. I guess this is a step above Teen Vogue.
A momentary loss of muscular coordination
In a moment of weakness I must have blacked out and sleep walked over to a computer where I bought this 1965 magazine advertisement for Mademoiselle Shoes. I don’t know what magazine it came from because the jackals that dissect these old magazines and sell individual pages online don’t bother to catalog this information. In […]
Does this Skateparks Make Me Look Fat?
I am not making this up. A new study by the nonprofit Rand Corporation finds that girls who live near parks with active facilities like jogging paths, basketball courts, and playgrounds are more likely to be physically active. (Duh!) Sounds good right? Except, Skateboard areas and special-use parks were negatively associated with physical activity in […]
