Ladies instead of buying another boring scarf to keep your pretty little necks warm in the winter, why not get boss and rock a retro styled hip-hop chain. In the words of the creator Celapiu, “There is so many different chains out there. I thought to myself – why not try making one on my own? I wanted to make it right, not too big and not too small. Also, my desire was to keep my original inspiration, hip-hop culture, plainly visible.” And so here it is, Celapiu’s first – Golden Chain. This can also be made in other colors including grey, navy blue, burgundy and many more, order yours here.

Red and Meth have been partners in crime for a while now, so it would only make sense that when one makes a shoe, the other is sure to follow. First Red Man created his Adidas shoe, and next Method Man followed with his own version of the popular brand. Reds sneakers feature a hearty red suede upper with the adidas signature three stripes in black. The toe is white and little specs of red are included on the white outsole that take you back to Redmans debut LP “Whut? Thee” Album. The tongue tag sports an image of Redman with his name printed below him in silver and the heel tab features the adidas logo as well as “Funk Doc” in silver.

Miss Feeney’s Ties bring sexy back to the fashion of furnishings. Styles lovingly re-created in the tradition of “peek-a-boo” accents from the 40s and 50s, when a gentleman knew how to dress. Dashing and debonair were the order of the day, and sexy secrets were one’s own to keep. Inspired by her Grandfather, a pioneer in the world of men’s apparel, Marie Shepard created Miss Feeney’s Finery to pay homage to his life’s work. “My Grandfather was constantly seeking new twists to add to his designs – in business and in life, he was always just a little bit of a maverick – ahead of the curve. The Peek-a-boo Tie was definitely representative of his humor and style. I am truly tickled to be bringing it back. I know he would be, too.” These ties are a way to let everyone know your the “Big Cheese” without having to ever say a word. When you want to get decked out, go classy and ritzy. These assure for a keen look for the strong silent type, and when someone questions a move of yours, just flash the hot babe on the back of your tie, they will get the point.

The time comes in every mans life when he surrenders to his better half,  gives up his bachelor pad, and moves in with his girl. Usually, this means a lot of good things. No more pizza and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches 7 nights a week. No more wearing the same dirty laundry for a whole month. Actually having a stocked fridge. If you add all this up, it seems like a no brainer. Moving in with your girl should be the smart move. But hold the phone. The one thing you sacrifice is your freedom to decorate your place however you want, with whatever you want. Now its a known fact that most men aren’t fashion experts, but that’s what we’re here for. Here’s a list of a couple of things that will ensure you don’t wake up one morning in Barbi’s playhouse. You might be a quitter, but you don’t have to be a Ken doll too.

These lamps are wall pieces that will make your friends think you run a slaughter house ever time you turn on the lights.

No doubt you will be getting annoyed when your girl starts yelling at you to put your keys, mail, and everything else is the same spot every time you walk in the door. If you are hanging your keys on an AK 47, that might not be so bad.

AK 47 Ice cube trays. As if drinking a Whiskey on the rocks isnt manly enough, now you can add to your hardcore ways with these puppies. Enough said.

A coffee table is  something that most women love, and love to bitch about leaving beer cans on. If you had one that looked like a friggen TNT bomb, im pretty sure you would let a lot of things go.

I don’t use an umbrella. They show weakness. Plus I’m not a gremlin. Nothing happens to me if I eat after dark or get wet. But believe this, I would carry this every time a single cloud hit the sky.

So there you have it. The time may have come for you to give up a little bit of that oh so sweet bachelor freedom, but rest assure, if you follow the advice of us here at Zoot, and purchase a few key items, you might just find a way to deal with the fact that you just agreed to have sex with only one person for the rest of your life.

Gabriel Dishaw is an artist who does this thing using the Junk that we all throw out. He has done many other sculptures, but we are focusing on a few pairs of metal kicks he created. He labels this first one, the appropiately named, Junk Dunk.

He used very little wire , and more glue to keep it as non-bulky as possible and included new details such as a hinged tongue and a nike logo on the tongue and the back of the shoe. Previously he used actual Nike soles, but this time, it was all trash. We love them , but do not recommend anyone wear these because you will lose your toes, or get some kind of tetanus disease. Either way , they are quite impressive.

I recently got back to the East Coast from L.A., and let me tell you, the underground shoe world out West is like nothing I have ever seen. There are many stores that specialize in selling rare and expensive shoes, such as Flight Club, and Riff, both on Fairfax. While I was busy trying to process the amount of sneakers, and their price tags, my good friend Simon pointed out one of the most desired  shoes for collectors. The Wu Tang Clan Nike Dunk High, originally released in 1999, is perhaps one of the rarest and highest valued Dunks of all time. The Dunk was created by Nike as a promo piece only for members, friends and family of the Wu Tang Clan, and the shoe was limited to under 72 pairs (36 Chambers X 2). 10 years later, this color way of the Dunk High still commands over $5000, and I’ve seen them online for nearly $7000. While the colors are simply yellow and black, the Wu-Tang logo is embroidered into the heel and the tongue tag so that everyone will know these are legit Wu. Not that anyone would ever see them anyway, for over $5000 these puppies would sit in my closet, in a air tight chamber, until my first born was ready for college. At that point I would be able to sell these things for a Ivy League tuition with a few bucks to spare.
