Man Hands

Hi friends!

As we at PreK apparel get ready to go into production, and we fuss over the details big and small, we are also striving to keep on top of our day jobs….me handling the Karmaloop Merchandising department and Brian designing and concepting for another new brand KLP (Klothing Liberation Project)…while we’re stressed and strapped, I feel like it has been bringing out the best in us…I myself find that I am better under pressure, and Brian, well it’s teaching him to organize and discipline himself and his methods.

It seems as though this is all not enough for us, we are constantly sticking our fingers into other pots... looking for new and unique ventures to get involved with, ( we have been speaking to a charitable organization to raise awareness on “baby shaking”), we are constantly seeking reasons to throw parties (last weekend was my “10,000^th day alive” surprise beach bash, followed by a “we can’t finish all this food” BBQ), and of course new and interesting ways to get ourselves noticed, (Brian designed a Shephard Fairey inspired “911 is a joke t-shirt” to commemorate Shep’s arrest in Boston last February and was the talk of the town last Friday night). It's a good thing we both have such big hands, they just can't seem to get full enough!!! But like I say...it's better to have "man hands" than to get manhandled hahahaha!!

We both seem to hear a clock ticking somewhere and are working like devils to stay ahead of it and everyone else; every design trend, every seemingly pop phenomenon, every catch phrase, every idle thought and suggestion we sock away in our minds and notes for a possible RE-appropriation on a onsie or a tee…like I said it forces us to stay sharp and not discard any exposure that we find ourselves getting.

And there’s more…we started rounding up our troops today, babies, models, photographers, new parents; for the next step in the launching of PreK Apparel…OUR LOOKBOOK! I am heading up this project and am SUPER excited about it! The concept we have come up with is pretty freakin dope I think, and we cannot wait to execute it with all of our favorite people.

We are still working out the dates and details, so stay tuned and you will see what we have up our sleeves!!

More as we do it,
