Memang dasar BUAYA!

Not me though. Them:

I like something different.

I like how simple twist creates something cynical, yet fresh.

I like these,

But to be honest, erkk, the last one is too much for my liking. In fact, it's kinda creepy, feels like you are being swamped by myriad of crocodiles. I don't think I can pull that off. Shit now I'm paranoid already!

Anyways, this special collection is a collaboration done between Lacoste and Estudio Campana, a design studio based in Sao Paulo founded by the Campana brothers, Fernando and Humberto.

I really think they did an awesome job, as far as design and creativity is concerned. Well, I know nothing about designs anyway, hence I'm the most suitable person to give critics.

Ladies, don't be sad, it comes in your fitting too. Surely not for the faint-hearted though. Don't say I didn't warn you!

Good thing is, it has a starting price tag of RM659 (for the basic - first t-shirt picture). I say it's cheap.

What?! Why?!

Well, simple math. If you buy the normal Lacoste Polo T-shirt, it cost you around what, RM299? So with this special design, you get about eight crocodiles on one t-shirt, and I'd say it's a steal! The price is supposed to go up with more crocodiles on it (or bigger crocodile).

For more info, you can check out Lacoste x Campanas Collections HERE.

Yes, I'm so gonna buy this later.

One last thing,

COUTURE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE.

Dem yuh!

The Force is now in THREE STRIPES.

I am getting mine today.

We are now called The Super Trooper.

For more info, check it out HERE or HERE or just fucking Google.

Holy Grail

Bukan. Gua bukan nak cerita pasal cawan Nabi Isa A.S. atau cerita The Da Vinci Code mahupun band kanak-kanak Code Red (siot dalam Wikipedia pun tak ada cerita, gila sampah).

Gua nak cerita pasal gua punya Holy Grail.

Maka ini adalah Holy Grail gua.

Nama dia ialah Nike Air Jordan Retro 4 x Undefeated (M-AJ4).

Apa pasal belakang nama kasut tu ada "x Undefeated"?

Maksudnya kasut itu ialah kolaborasi di antara jenama Air Jordan dan Undefeated.

Apa benda Undefeated ni? Siapa pula yang tidak terkalahkan?

Undefeated ialah sebuah kedai/jenama pakaian gaya hidup jalanan (lifestyle streetwear) yang terlokasi di Los Angeles, Amerika sana.

Mampus nak cari dekat mana ni. Gua ada jumpa dalam internet itu hari tahun sudah, harga dia boleh buat down payment rumah.

Berapa ringgit sampai boleh buat down payment rumah?

4 ribu. Bukan Ringgit Malaysia, tapi Dolar Amerika. Ludah Amerika (promote Hujan sikit).

Tapi itu tahun sudah punya harga. Tahun sekarang gua tak pasti. Mungkin 5 ribu? Tak apa, gua tunggu sampai harga dia boleh beli Skyline GT-R empat biji, baru gua beli kasut ni.

Sebab apa gua nak beli kasut harga 5 ribu Ludah Dolar Amerika?

Seksi siot kasut tu!

Air Jordan 4 memang paling stim kepada gua dalam siri Air Jordan. Kena pula colour dia macam military, pehh memang kalau perang darurat ke nanti lawan dengan Zionis ke, gua pakai kasut ni.

Gila seksi siot. Ni pancut banyak kali pun gua tak ada hal.

Celaka juga.dikenali.sebagai

Albino Pigeon is coming to town!

Last year, 2008, marked the release of New Balance 575 "Purple Pigeon". It created so much hype as Jeff Staple, the main brain behind Staple Design who designed the shoe cleverly use PIGEON as his marketing tool. New York = Pigeon. Really?

Hi, my name is Jeff C. Ng. Call me Mr. Staple

The New Yorkers love us now even if we be shitting on them everyday

I didn't buy it, though I kinda like the color combination and the materials used on that pair. I still can get it still, there's some resellers who I can talk to and persuade to sell to me at a good price. We'll see, Hari Raya Aidilfitri is coming soon after all.

This year, Jeff is coming back with the "ever-creative, out-of-the-box, hypebeast-mentality, over-used idea" of making more money without even have to think too much. I admire that, to be honest. And I don't know why people are rambling about the hardships of making easy money. Nonsensical ignorant.

"As you can see, so much effort and creativity were put in designing this pair of shoes which I can humbly say a 'breakthrough' in sneakers industry........... (I'm a few million dollars richer next week!)"

What did he came up with? Rarer pigeon, or very rare species of animal in general, of genetically mutated. Albino. Yes, albino pigeon. Well, he called them the "White Pigeon" but it's not gonna change the fact that these unfortunate pigeons are albinos.

At last, we've got our freedom and equality among pigeons!

Same model (New Balance 575), probably same materials, and a lot of hard work to choose the best color and sell 1,077 pairs (with I'm sure there another couple of thousands in their store, marked as 'samples' or 'for Friends & Family' or 'I wanna make more money, so what?!')

Actually, Nike was the first to get their hands into this pigeon craze with their own Nike Dunk SB x Staple Design "Purple Pigeon" or "New York SB", as we knew caused a stir in New York upon its release in 2007. Yes, pimps and gangstas fought over a few pairs of shoes. I heard there were 200++ pairs released, but again, who knows?

I don't know pigeons and their shits worth this much

OG? You kiddin' me?

Anyhow, our good friends at SOLE WHAT? are really generous and fortunate to have the opportunity to release these 'physically-challenged' pigeons to our beloved Kuala Lumpur. Seriously, SOLE WHAT? is one of the leading sneaker stores in South East Asia region. Big ups to the cool dudes/dudette there.

One big happy family

Yes, they will be releasing the New Balance 575 x Staple Design "Albino/White Pigeon" this weekend, if I'm not mistaken. For more info, you can check the details from their official blog. Click SOLE WHAT?

I kinda like this pair too, you know. Feels like I'm 'whiter' if I wear them. We all wanna be WHITE, don't we?

Dem yuh!

Suit me.

I have a weird passion. Fashion. I don't know how or where it came from. I just love it. Simple as that.

Most of you would probably noticed that I tend to go for sneakers more than other types of apparel. Well, you can say that. Maybe it's easier to put on a pair of shoes and let other parts follow. And I used to buy A LOT of tees too but tees are hard to maintain. After a number of washes it'll fade or loses its texture strength and many other things. Especially the white ones. Damn it's hard to keep. So I realized I can't be buying $300 tee and lasts about a year, it's not really worth it. And I bought those tees around that price, not one or two, but A LOT.

So I turned to jeans, and sneakers. Though they are usually more expensive, they're easier to maintain, lasts longer and looks better in time. The fades, the worn-out look, the feel. Nice. I can't say I'm a collector, but I do have few decent pairs. Definitely will add more to the inventory.

The only thing I am lacked of now is, SUITS.

I do have a pair of suits which I have them tailored about five years ago. I kid you not. I still can wear it. And who said I've gained weight?! Jealous fuckers.


It was my Nehru Suit. I like the style, something a 21-year-old kid would not wear, but I did. It's all about experiencing new things, right?

That's about it. No more suits. I reckoned there's no reason to buy myself another suit. I would just rent it if I go for a formal function. Plus how many times I would go for a dinner function in a year anyway?

But recently I have this one funny feeling about getting myself a pair. Or more. The idea of wearing nice-looking, clean-cut, elegant pieces of apparels is kind of growing in me. I've been following The Sartorialist blog for years, and every day I have a better understanding and I thought it's something people in Malaysia, well Kuala Lumpur respectively would not really wear.

So I will buy/tailor myself a pair of suits, but there's a few things I need to know about getting a suit. For example:

- What style would I go for?

- What colour should I choose?

- Which fabric is best?

- Which brand do I need?

- What size am I?

- What can I wear it with?

- What must I wear it with?

So I decided to do some research and learn about this new section of fashion in my life. It's hard for me to explain as I'm new to this, so you guys can go check it out at The Guide To Men's Suits. It has good information on how to dress up in suits. Again, this website is only for your reference. You can always find more information and knowledge from somewhere else, and try to get the best result for you.

I'm still looking for my own style. Any idea?

By the way, I love the one which Adrien Brody was wearing in The Darjeeling Limited. The grey suit. Fucking awesome. Should watch the film if you want to know why.

If I'm not mistaken, the wardrobe was done by Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton

I'm so into grey now.

Nice. Really.

The bags are even nicer. Like, OMG OMG OMG OMG.

A teaser so that you'll watch the film. My Natalie Portman the bombshell! Nude!

Dem yuh!

Thank you, and thank YOU.

First of all thank you very much to everyone who wished for my health, wealth and stealth for the coming years.

I would rather not post any related picture here, because the celebrations were nasty. Plural. I'm so happy, delighted and grateful to have celebrated it with key people in my life. My parents, my family, my cousins, my best friends, my friends, my colleagues.

But most of all, over three days of celebratory slushees, the best gift I received was actually exactly one minute before the midnight of the 3-day-3-night gala celebration ended. One minute. Just when I thought I would've missed it again this year.

A gift, or a love, is something money can't buy. Or at least I believe in that idea. That's why it's called a gift, or love for that matter.

Anyway, my wish for this year:

Somebody please pretty please...

Thank you, and thank YOU.

Langkawi New-Year Holiday Preparations

As some of you might know (or might not care at all), I'll be going to Langkawi Island for about a week. It's actually a tradition set by Khaidi Kamaruddin, my boss in the company I'm working with now, Motorsports Malaysia. It's like a team building thing, but no specific schedule or anything, just having fun together with the team, relatives and close friends. Believe me, to build a strong solid team, the program has to be fun!

I haven't been out chilling, a real holiday I mean, in quite a long time. Worked with the company for almost a year, and I never been out of KL, except when the Komodo Ninja hit Pure Bar, Malacca for the Sneaker Collection Party back in July or something. Yeah, as far as I could remember, I didn't go out of the city for anything. Demmmm....

So yeah, now I'm planning to really have a nice and relaxing week by the beach a.k.a beach bum. But, knowing me, I'm quite a particular person when it comes to planning for my trip or anything related so I need a cool-to-have list of things when I'm there. Why do you have to be so fussy about it? I just like to be cool. I've always stressed out that the most important thing is to make yourself happy so in that order, I wanna make sure I made a cool-planned trip. You don't wanna slap your own face when you forgot to bring a thong later you know what I mean... Plus, I totally have no problem travelling light, I can even go there with a small pouch only. I would not list in TOOTHBRUSH, SUN BLOCK, or even SWIMMING TRUNKS because only a dirty un-hygienic ignorant motherfucker would not bring those. As long as I go there with the existence of these few, I'll be just happy:

1. Nike Air Rejuven8

Straight out of the Innovation Kitchen..

Nike’s development lab for unconventional ideas - is the Air Rejuven8; a shoe that is specifically engineered to help tired feet recuperate in anticipation for the next bout of activity - perfect for athletes/those with active lifestyles to wear in-between sports.

Removable socks. Just like condoms.

I can wear this at all time in Langkawi without even have to bring few sandals or shoes or anything. Just perfect!

2. Nike DriFit Pro

Hollow man...

I need it because I already planned to buy it for quite some time for my martial arts training purpose. Nahh just kidding. For any sports purpose lah! I don't wanna get 2nd degree sunburn or something so i need to wear a tee, and sleeveless is fine because I believe when I wear it, I looked exactly just like this:

Whatchu ladies lookin at..??

3. Oakley Frogskin Sunglasses

Frog with four eyes..

A beach bum isn't a beach bum without a proper sunglasses.. This wayfarer-type of shades are just the right type to wear and cover your reddish eyes from the results of... errr, too much UVs.. And the best part is, it GLOWS IN THE FUCKING DARK. That way, under the dark cold windy night, I can be seen just in case!

I like everything that grows in the dark... Oppsss, I mean glows.

Who made the coolest and funkiest shades other than Oakley, innit?


4. Paul Smith Towel

The realms of fashion and lifestyle..

Towel is synonym to beach. Why a Paul Smith's? I have to say, the towel looks yummy... Paul Smith signature swirl/stripes colorway has always been a turn-on for me. I'm expecting a scarf from Fazz (if you ever read this Fazz), and now I'm looking for this for my holiday.

5. Мишка Knit Sweater

One of the most coveted underground streetwear labels in the world today..

In Russian, Мишка or Mishka [pronounced: mee-shka] means "bear cub". Mishka is a brand from New York established in 2003. Mishka is always one of my favorite brands with a very unique, simple, provoking and sometimes funny. I need this knit sweater (but not this design, I'm buying a different design) for a cooler evenings in Langkawi.

Now I'm set! Langkawi, just wait for a your Naughty Pirate!

Wish List Year-End 2008 (Part 3)

Woohoo today is already December 19th of 2008. I still have few wish-lists to fill in. For those who don't know what a wish-list is, it's actually a list of what you wish to have/buy/steal (wow, genius!). This is already my part-3 of I-still-don't-know parts. As long as it's not crossed 2009, I still can wish!

So the last two parts I wished for a digital camera (still undecided), a watch by Luminox x Stussy x Delta, a pair of Dior Homme jeans and a shirt by H&M x Comme des Garcons (you can check it at my Naughty Labels). Now I have another two things I really want, really. But this time around, it's not clothings or apparels. It's something I can use to decorate my house. Something fresh, something unique.

Item 05: Skateboard decks

A what?? A skateboard deck?? Errr, yeah... But not 'a', skateboard decks. You mean more than one??? Errr, yeah... What the heck??!?? Hey, don't be too negative okay. Let me show you what I have in mind.

Cute lil' pets shit on my decks.

What do you guys think? Cute isn't it? Hehe.. It's uber-cool.. This is a set of skateboard decks from one of the well-known name in streetwear scene, SupremeNYC with a collaboration with "one of the most thoughtful and thought-provoking Japanese artist in the 90's", the very own Takashi Murakami. In case you don't know who Takashi Murakami is, and what damage he's done in the fashion scenes, I'll give you a hint of one of it:

That's not a candy store honey..

Yes, he's done a marvellous collaboration with a superbrand everyone-wants-to-have-one-be-it-the-handkerchiefs-or-even-some-cheapskates-handbags-from-Petaling-Street, LV or Louis Vuitton. With a different approach on the 'Multicolor' collections, something that was not very familiar with LV (they are more into classy, luxury look).

This set of three skateboard decks Is really nice to hang on my house wall. Or I can just put it like this:

X'Mas comes early!

Item 06: Toy

What the hell is wrong with you??! Nothing. I'm just trying to, you know, be a little different. Buy different stuff and all. Don't be mistaken, this toy I'm hunting for is something not many people would like to put in their house. I don't mind. I like it though.

Half human, half amazing..

This is a figurine toy called Kaws Dissected Companion by a famous graffiti artist, Kaws. He has a clothing line called OriginalFake. I've been eyeing this lil cutie quite some times. Why do you like it? How do I say this. It's very unique, and looks good. Actually my initial plan few years back was to buy this as a present to my ex-girlfriend. I thought it'd be cool for her to have it since she's a doctor and this figurine is like an artistic approach of a human anatomy or something. But things didn't work out the way we both wanted too (too bad) so I kinda 'canceled' the purchase. It's quite expensive to me but fuck it, this time I'm gonna get this for myself!

I think I'll have one last part of my wish-list next time, right before New Year 2009. Another two items I'd love to have either this year or early next year depending on the BONUS I'll be getting! Please pray with me.


Dem yuh!!!

Wish List Year-End 2008 (Part 2)

Here I am again. The second part of.... well I'm not sure how many parts. Maybe few (again..). Come to think about it, I have quite a lot of things I wish to buy before this coming New Year 2009. Why? Because I wanna start my new year with a good vibe. Well it's not about what you have materially you know that, it's about your resolution, your mission, your.... Yes I couldn't agreed more. Let me ask you something;

How do you review your performance for the year 2008? (Be it your life, your career, your relationship, your financial, anything)

If it's bad, won't you give yourself a chance and cut some slacks? after all, not everyday of this year you did bad. There must be AT LEAST one day you were proud of yourself, maybe you helped an old lady crossing the road or something? I'm sure we all have done quite a few good things that entitled ourselves to be rewarded by ourselves. Dem yuh.. Confusing..

If it's good, or better or may be the best year so far for you, what do you do? How do you reward yourself? Are you just gonna tell yourself,"I did good this year. I'll do better next year." and then you'll just move your own sorry ass on without rewarding yourself? That's plain silly I must say. Let me tell you this, if you love someone, say your girlfriend, you'll buy her gifts, or just give her a warm-loving kiss whenever she did great at something, or just because you love her. And God knows how many times you rewarded people around you with gifts, affection, and everything else but list down what have you rewarded yourself throughout this year?

So now, I'm telling you all now, always look up on yourself. Each of you are special in your own possible way, but we need to have one thing in common, to love ourselves.

Me? I just go buy myself some nice stuff and I'm good. Here is the Part 2:


Item 03: Jeans

I love jeans. I have few, not very rare or premium I would say, just normal ones. But I like jeans. I used to like those faded, grunge-looking jeans but now I'm more into the raw jeans. What is raw jeans? Raw denim, as opposed to washed denim, is a denim fabric that is not washed after being dyed during its production. Over time, denim will generally fade, which is often considered desirable.

So yeah, I love raw denims because after certain time, normally 6 months - 1 year without washing (I know it doesn't sound right but, hey it's fashion!) the fading is affected by my body of wearing the jeans and the activities of my daily life. This creates the feel to be a more natural, unique look than pre-distressed denim.

For now, I really want this jeans, badly...

Looking dem gud with the leg-crossing pose eh?

Owh you can't tell what jeans is that? Nothing flashy? Boring? Well I am boring. But I don't care. Dem yuh! I'll show them closer.

The best place is Homme...

It's Dior Homme Raw 19cm Made in Japan jeans. It's slim-straight cut, raw indigo(but I prefer black), and simple. What else could I ask for?


Item 04: Shirts

I need some shirts. Why? This one time I was browsing my closet, I realized that I don't have new shirts. No. My Dockers striped shirt that I used every week, was something I bought like, 5 years ago? Now that means two thing: 1. I'm so stingy I don't buy any shirts OR 2. I love it and I keep it and wear it until now. I'm not sure myself.

Anyways, I went out to some shopping complexes over the last month, just to have a look around and shit. Yes there were some nice shirts and I thought of grabbing but I will not, until I buy this:

Are those buttons straight or my mind is just playing tricks on me?

This is a shirt by H&M with a collaboration by a renowned brand Comme des Garcons. I really like this, I think it's unique yet simple. This whole collection by H&M x CdG was sold out instantly during it's launching last month. Now I have to find it over the eBay.

Dem yuh!

Next.

Wish List Year-End 2008 (Part 1)

Gosh it's already end of 2008. I know I mentioned it more times that I could even remember, but just how fast.. I really hope I will get those money I'm supposed to be getting before New Year 2009. Finger crossed.

Anyways, I have listed down a few ('few' word is very subjective ain't it? hehee..) things that I wish to buy, as a reward to myself for not killing anyone this year *yawn* no no no I'm just kidding I'm not gonna do that, I'm a very good boy *doubtful* ok ok not that good tho', maybe a lil bit naughty *grin*.

And I planned to get these things because I need it. Why do you need it? I thought you already have enough for your own use? Well...... erkkkk.... yea..... but...... No BUT! Enough! Awh c'mon man... Once in a while I do need to pamper and treat myself with something special. And I will tell you why I chosed these over other things/color/design/model. Jeng jeng jeng......

Item 01: Digital Camera

Obviously I don't have a camera. How long has it been? Well, couple of years maybe. And why do you think you need to buy now? Because.... I am a camwhore now, compared to past years.

I don't have a preference yet, since the technology of digital camera is upgrading day by day. I need to have a very long day to survey.

Any suggestion? Any recommendation? Any preference? Yes I do. Good, what? Don't buy. Get out!

Seriously I need some recommendations. Anything particular you have in mind? You again! Hey I'm trying to help you here.. Owh really? Well, I don't really need those DSLR thing, it's too big and not my cuppa tea. Something simple, not too technical, and most importantly stylish. No idea... Thanks, for nothing.

Me likey likey... Goldie goldie...

Item 02: Watch

Something happened to my watch. It's broken and those people from Swatch (dem yuh!) said they don't have the parts. Fuck you Swatch I'm not gonna buy from you buggers again. Not once, but twice! No stock? Not my fucking problem. And, the fact that the watch is not even two years old, and it's from someone really special to me!

So I decided to get myself a new, reliable, strong and stylish watch.

Luminox X Stussy X Delta Series 3000 Limited Edition

Dem.....

Three bodies intertwine in this collaboration, artist Delta, Stussy, and watch brand Luminox, releasing a new series of Luminox 3000 watches. With Luminox you have 18 years of fidelity on your wrist. Luminox Light Technology as they call it now allows you to read your watch effortlessly no matter the availability of light. No matter where you go i'm sure this watch will flourish due to the self-powered micro gas lights.

Isn't it niceeeeeeeeeeeeee............?

Moreover, the gunmetal color suits my company's uniform and my favourite Vans x W)Taps Syndicate Rudeez sneakers:

Gunmetal never looked so sexy before...

Enuff said. Next.
