Shop Talk - UNIV
Posted By Brea – 23.01.2013

Brick and mortars are popping up all over town but they are not all created equal. One of our favorite spots to grab the latest goods including some of our most prized possessions -- Levi’s, Brixton, and Generic Surplus -- is UNIV, the Encinitas storefront located right on Highway 101. With plans to expand to international lands, an epic online store and a loyal following, UNIV is here to stay. The shop’s go-to Commodore, James Addonizio, tells us a little bit about the UNIV way.

Most interesting customer experience:

Steve Nash bought some UNIV t-shirts, Hulk Hogan asked for directions and someone brought us free beef

Top 5 favorite items in the store right now (besides MC of course):

UNIV mascot items, Reigning Champ sweatshirts, our own selvage denim, Levi's Vintage Clothing and Vans Syndicate

What’s on the UNIV playlist rotation:

David Bowie, Nancy Sinatra, Gordon Lightfoot, New Order, Henry Rollins podcasts

Best lunch break activities?

Surfing at the world famous Swamis just down the street

UNIV motto?

To cater to what you may or may not need

Check out UNIV here and give them a visit if you’re ever in the area.

Punch The Camera: Issue 3
Posted By Laura - 18.06.2013

Punch The Camera is a bi-annual photography zine inspired by adventure, exploration, and open spaces. All things I personally am a big fan of. For the latest issue of the zine put together by Justin Parkhurst, I was lucky enough to be one of the photographers featured alongside Foster Huntington, John Kilar, Justin Parkhurst, Jim Mangan, Kevin Trageser, and Bryan Schutmaat. If you want a little taste of the wanderlust evoked by this book of photos you should pick up yourself  a copy right here.

Got this in the mail this morning...
Posted By Paige - 18.06.2013

 

Dear Paige, 
I don't normally send mails out of nowhere and you might find it strange but i saw your post on the monster children site of the butthole bungalow and I liked it a lot.  You tought it must be somewhere in europe and you're right. The butthole bungalow is build on The Verbeke Foundation. I know it well because it's about 10 minutes from my house. (I live in Belgium in a small village near Ghent called Moerbeke - Waas)
 It's a private art site but everyone is welcome. As a ‘refuge of arts’ the domain offers chances to young / less renowned artists and holds an impressive collection of modern and contemporary art. Culture, nature and ecology go hand in hand in the Verbeke Foundation.  
The funny thing about the butthole bungalow is that it's being used as a bed and breakfast and i've had to admit it's cosy. 
Kindly regards, 
Quincey

 

thanks man!
