Just got back from holidays in Thailand yesterday and thought it would be a good idea to post the links below (blast from the past!)

They are blog articles posted in 2009, the first is about Ed Hardy clothing line, the other one is about Akoo clothing and was posted just after TI got in trouble with the police last summer.

FILA and the other footwear brands at the origin of streetwear

admin — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 11:44:45 +0000

I remember my first pair of Fila, they were all black and lasted for about a month skateboarding on a daily basis.
That was good enough at the time (1993) because reinforced skateboard shoes had not been released yet in local skateboard shops in my area.

This post comes under the category The Origins of Streetwear. What brands do you think should fit into this category?
Let us know with a comment.

I had forgotten about this brand until I stumbled upon an article by Nick Schonberger at www.highsnobiety.com titled Fila Heritage. I’d like to take this opportunity to congratulate Nick for the quality of his blog posts. I wish I was as hardworking as him,,, I’d probably be rich by now.

Sean John Urban Clothing by Puff Daddy.

P Daddy once said about Sean John, his urban wear clothing line:
<<I always had the idea that I would start my own apparel line, but I wanted to make sure the timing was right and that I had the time to devote to it.>>

Sean John Clothing Inc is a clothing and fragrance line owned by hip-hop mogul Sean John Combs and supermarket mogul Ron Burkle. The apparel company takes its name from Combs’ first and middle given names.

I really like Puff Daddy, you see. The only problem I have with this guy is his name… Or (plural) shall I say his nameS ?

That’s the tricky part when writing about Puff Daddy, you just don’t know the guy’s name anymore. Is it Diddy, P Diddy, Prince, Puff Daddy or Love symbol?

It’s monday morning, and I got it all mixed up. I understand the confusion is general and comes from various law suits about intellectual property related to another singer’s name.

He was originally known as Puff Daddy and then as P. Diddy (Puff and Puffy being often used as a nickname, but never as recording names). , he changed his stage name to “Diddy”. He continues to use the name P. Diddy in New Zealand and the United Kingdom, the latter after a legal battle with another artist, Richard “Diddy” Dearlove.

Sean John urban clothing brand by P Diddy

Ok, most of the clothes designed by P Diddy’s team are great: The t-shirts, the baggy trousers, the shoes etc.. P Diddy is a successful business man who, in my opinion, has set new references in terms of urban wear.

The style is easy to wear, not too flashy, just cool classics.

Ok, Sean John clothes are expensive but someone needs to pay P diddy expensive cigars, right?

About P Diddy: Sean John Combs (born November 4, 1969),[1] known by his stage name Diddy, is an American record producer, rapper, actor, men’s fashion designer, entrepreneur and dancer.

Did you know? P Diddy’s clothing line earned a Council of Fashion Designers of America award. Not sure what that means for Puff Daddy his clothing line will do great anyway.

You don’t like Diddy? You think he is ugly like Jay-Z and you are jealous of his success? Then share your feeling in the comments section. That will make you feel better.
