Few more Vegas photos from last week.
Woke up Wednesday and stopped by the Hilton for free breakfast courtesy of CIT (some type of like business funding group or something - I'd never heard of them either) Excellent breakfast nonetheless.
Wall graphics inside the men's restroom in the Hilton. Clever idea and well executed too.
Anyway, then we headed over to Mandalay Bay and walked around Project all day - really great collection of both large and small brands. Way more interesting stuff than what was at the other Convention Center.
These Vintage1 guys had some really good men's jeans. And keep in mind, I looked at a lot of jeans over those two days - but theirs really stood out to me for some reason.
Big Star's booth was wallpapered with dollar bills - donations for Haitian relief efforts. And yes - I threw some of the Craps winnings into the box. I'm trying to keep good Vegas Karma.
At the end of the day I stopped by the Men's Magic room upstairs. I was there about 10 minutes and ran into a bunch of people. Saw Emily from our old office and DJ Neil Armstrong.
Then I ran into Ben Baller over near the LRG booth. For those who don't know, Ben is a celebrity jeweler in LA who runs a very popular blog documenting his life. He writes a lot about partying and jewelry, neither of which I really care about, but there's also this small portion about networking, building a small empire and living 'the life' that makes it really captivating and strangely addicting.

Then I ran into Nick Diamond, namesake of Diamond Supply Co. Nick was one of the first guys to hit us up for a shirt last Spring when he heard about our Represent Kobe project. In fact, he told me that he still has our poster hanging in his office - which I thought was pretty cool. Anyway, I let him know that we already have some stuff in the works for Rep Kobe Part 2.
Last but not least, I stopped by the Undefeated booth just to check out their Fall collection so I could get a sneak preview of what I'll be wearing 6 months from now.
