STUFF FROM MY RUGGED LITTLE BOY

today some stuff from my 6 years old son LEVI. like me he is a great denim, boot and hat lover. the cowboy shirt you see below was a present from UWE c/o AMTRAQ. his son was wearing this original ROCKMOUNT RANCH WEAR shirt before. great quality, made in the USA. another beloved piece is the ATELIER LA DURANCE NOVELTY JACKET. great classic look and best manufacturing – from the time when ALD was made in france! i bought this jacket years ago at B74 knowing that it will fit LEVI some day. and the BLUNDSTONE boots. damn, poor boots: this one are just 1/2 year old. LEVI’S most beloved shoes. he has always two pairs with the same size. one pair has always a day to relax after heavy wear over an exciting school and outdoor day. i think i bought about 6 pairs the last 3 years. the TICK, TRICK & TRACK hat is from SCHMITTHUT. it is older than 10 years and it was mine before i gave it to LEVI, my first SCHMITTHUT hat. it was always a bit too small for my head. pics | LTG

LUST AUF GUT | RED WING SHOE STORE FRANKFURT & B74

saturday evening i went to frankfurt, main, to meet ALEXANDER from BECAUSE BLOG with MARIA and UWE from AMTRAQ DISTRIBUTION. all together we joined an event and small fashion show at B74. this show was organized by the city of frankfurt in context of the MTV EUROPEAN MUSIC AWARDS which took place yesterday. they used the B74 as a location for a small fashion show of frankfurt located label COCOLORES. all the stuff has had nothing to do with the stuff KAMI sells at B74 and RED WING STORE FRANKFURT. but it was nice to meet some friends there and exciting what was happening. beside the show i found LUST AUF GUT journal with some very well done sites portraying B74 and THE RWS STORE.  cool layout, really well done. pics | LTG
