Ever feel like there’s not enough hours in a day, days in a week, weeks in a year, years in your life? I do. I always feel like that. Don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing, maybe neither. What is a good thing though are the KNICKS winning in the playoffs, Kendrick Lamar records, our new bikes, and D‘s amazing home cooking. (I know I’m lucky). Focus, word of the month. Wearing: Maison Martin Margiela for H&M deconstructed denim jacket, Moratorium pyramid chain, Supreme ”Fuck Em” pin and my trusty Converse Jack Purcells.

One of my favorite places to travel in Asia is Seoul. The city is a hodgepodge of amazing culture that’s full of SAMSUNG, technology, plastic girls, unrivalled entertainment and amazing food. The crew of friends I have there are always great hosts and always make the time to hang out with the kid. Almost all of them have their own businesses and definitely lead the way in the subcultures of Seoul. Amazing trip as always and I highly recommend the Park Hyatt Seoul in Gangnam-gu, if anyone is planning a trip there (get the corner room!). Thanks to Joon and Rich at Pr1zm/Incase, Plastickid at 360Sounds for all the goodies. Wearing: 360Sounds x Heritage Floss Heavyweight Tee.

Weekends are family time. Been putting a lot of hours in the office and then even some more at home, but I never forget what my priorities are. I realized early on that I can’t worry too much about what the next guy is doing, just gotta keep positive, not take shit too seriously and work your ass off. D and I have been trying to do a bit more exploring in our new city now that we are bit more comfortable and have the time. Decided to check out a brunch spot that all our friends were talking about called HOMIES. It’s run by a an ex-pat skater named JAY and serves good old fashioned American breakfast food. I don’t have too many food photos cause I was busy eating and talking to my dude, OG China Skate Godfather Eric (Converse, Vagabond) and his new little family. But if you like messy food in burrito form then I’d suggest to get the Breakfast Burrito with a side of something else to even it out.

Recent pickup: Sammy Baca CTAS Pro Skate. It has the classic stylings of the original All Star, but inside has the same technology and features that sets Converse Skateboarding sneakers apart; Lunarlon insoles, abrasion resistant canvas, and All Star traction rubber. The deal “sealer” here is really the Lunarlon insoles, it really gives you that cushion from having sore feet, especially if you walk around as much as I do. Another nice detail inside the tongue is Sammy Baca’s homage to his homestate of Nevada, the “Battle Born” state flag. I’ve always liked the combination of Chinos and All Stars, probably because I used to watch a lot of LA gangster movies as a kid and all the bad ass Mexican gang bangers “Cholos” had Chinos and All Stars. I also love Mexican food. Did you know that? I bet you didn’t.
