LAKERS VS. CELTICS

I've had a bunch of people hit me up and ask if UNDRCRWN is going to do a Lakers vs. Celtics tee.
It is hard for me to top the ONLY 1 tee. (Which will be shipping to the stores that picked it up in a week! online soon!)
So I drew a blank. Nothing... I'm taking a pass on the "versus" and getting ready for the "WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP" tee.
So I have some pressure.

Just a few images to make your mind wander... mine too.

NIKE MUSEUM BEJING

Nike just does it the right way. The term "getting it" is loosely thrown around all the time. Not a big of a fan as I used to be of the products, but the imagery and communication of the brand is always 2nd to none.
There is a museum that changes out every few months to promote NIKE. Ipods are loaned out to give people verbal and visual tours of the show. It was amazing. They get it.

AROUND THE WORLD

Not the game. The business trip. Just got back from Germany via Bejing, China. Not sure when I'll recover, but it was an amazing trip. Bejing is amazing. I've been to China a ton of times for developing footwear and apparel. This time it was to check the #1 growing market out. Olympics are coming up so the city is making the final preparations for the events in late august.

Here are a few shots from the trip. more on myspace.com/dustincanalin

I had my brother Gabe (an aspiring designer) hook up my myspace page.
It's dope how teen agers can now design web pages. Thanks Gabe!

Check it out. I have my most recent works on there.

ball sak

My nephew was at an AAU tournament this weekend and saw this in the lobby of the gym. BALL SAK. Something about this is just not right.

I did some googling and found the website. You have to love the internet.
In any case, more to come on my nephew and his AAU team. Undrcrwn will be creating uniform and pre and post game warm ups. for them. THey're going to be sick.

HAIR BRAIDER

What up Kells!


Can you say Chi-City.

WHAT I DO

I was home a weeks ago and ended up going through some old drawings from highschool. Looking back I knew that I would be doing what I do. It's crazy to see that I still draw from the same source of inspiration. I've been blessed. I also found some old stuff from college. I put together a NIKE book. Way before Sole Provider. I even wrote copy. Crazy. Such memories.
