THE Limited edition Nipsey Hussle Top Star

This is interesting, but this is almost a jump the shark worthy promo. These are probably at least 30 bucks and if hanes had anything to do with the manufacturing, they will be in the trash in a week.

Available at Stussy shops

THE MQ ALEMBIC

We’re releasing a hand etched 64oz stainless steel flask. Limited to a quantity of 24, the legendary artist-vandal, MQ, took time out of canvassing walls around the world to design and hand-etch all 24 flasks with his signature lettering. The flasks are useful for having a place to put two fifths of booze, making margaritas for the whole tailgate, and filling with enough water to flood a Fijian island. The flask is only available online AT UPPERPLAYGROUND.COM

JARRITOS FLAVOR CITY

Street Art Cookbook is a complete guide to the materials and techniques used within today’s most creative and progressive art movement. In hundreds of pictures and illustrations and a dozen of interviews with some of the world’s most famous artists author Benke Carlsson and street artist Hop Louie shows how street art is made. From stencils and stickers to lasertagging and guerilla gardening, Street Art Cookbook takes us on a trip around the world in the search of the tricks and trades of street artists. Street artists don’t ask for permission. They skip the established channels and communicate when and where they want. Posters, stickers, screenprint, mosaic och sculptures – there are no limits for their imagination.
