Body Language
All over prints on fabric for Sabrina Khan. I really dig the idea behind these! These were fun to do… and she has great taste in music.
There’s nothing like good body images to enhance one’s own “body image”.
Several finished garments are on display at the SPREAD art show going on now at The Chapel Arts in Vancouver.

A Magical Deconstruction
Some Product has unearthed very rare and unseen photos of the famed Catalan magician El Ballistico. His very short and lively career came to a sudden end in the year 2000, as it was his wish never to perform magic in the 21st century. He has not been heard from since, although rumors continue to circulate as to his whereabouts.
El Ballistico practiced what is now known as deconstructive magic. While having a great respect and admiration for the art and in particular past masters of magic, Ballistico often times deconstructed his own tricks and illusions right on stage in front of an audience. At the time many people thought that he wasn’t very well rehearsed or just plain no good, however we have since realized that what he was really doing was distilling the true essence of magic and sharing it with his audience, right on stage. It is by no coincidence that deconstructive cuisine started to develop and gain worldwide notoriety in the Catalan region of Spain, almost at the same time as Ballistico’s last performance.
We are very happy to make available the limited edition El Ballistico tees through our good friends at El Kartel as well as on our online shop.

Some Product @ KILLA
Some Product just dropped some limited airbrushed Revolt tees at KILLA in Vancouver’s Gastown. They also carry C.P. Company there, so you you know it’s the best place in town to get properly clobbered up.
I’ve seen the future, brother…
We are happy to present the new collaborative tee for The Blues & Haikus night at The Waldorf Hotel. This limited edition tee is available exclusively at the event and the hotel gift shop.

East Van Wine Academy
According to certain experts, knowledge of fine wines is one of the best skills to have after The Apocalypse hits. If that is something that may interest you, then be sure to check out East Van Wine Academy at The Waldorf Hotel.
The mighty HOG
Not really sure who did the artwork on this Tankhog Halloween themed tee, but I dig it. The “Mighty HOG”, were a pretty awesome Vancouver rock band and a great bunch of dudes. They absolutely tear apart The Partridge Family classic, “I woke up in love this morning” in the clip below.
