For the last few years we've made it a point to create something in the line each season that we can raise awareness and money for charitable organizations. The profits from the shirts are then donated to the cause. You might be familiar with Hope and 11th Hour T's in the past.

Our latest collaboration started off with a request from some friends and has grown into something really special. It revolves around an upcoming movie called 180Ëš SOUTH. The movie chronicles a 6 month trip by climber/surfer/writer Jeff Johnson and delves into environmentalism from experience rather than through pie charts and idealism. Learn more about it HERE or jump onto the 180ËšSOUTH site. The trailer is awesome and check out all the old footage of Yvon Chouinard (founder of Patagonia) from a similar trip he made in 1968.

We ended up teaming up with Patagonia for their first ever collaboration. We've been producing the shirts and they are currently available on shop.obeyclothing.com and many of our fine retailers. The OBEY/ Patagonia logo is not out yet but will be available on an upcoming round of the shirts available on our site, our retailers and Patagonia stores. We're raising money for Conservacion Patagonica to help save one of the last wild places on earth in Chile's Patagonia region. The area is being threatened by relentless development including the Hidro Aysen dam proposal. Educate yourself and learn more over at 180˚South's site.

Stay tuned for the posters as well...

180ËšSouth's new site is up so go check it out.

Dantard and I had the opportunity to head up to Oregon and Washington to kick it with our Northwest Rep, Burl and hang in his new house in Bend, OR. Now I've been to Oregon a few times; Once when I was 5, headed up to Expo in Vancouver (86) and another time when we passed thru Portland when I was 5 and a half (later in 86). Long story short, I don't remember shit... So third times the charm, I enjoyed the great outdoors and hanging with my big hit man.

Burl's 2 Babies, Steve (pup) & the cutie... Big Lou West!

Ooh... and Bend's Own Brew...

So I goofed and forgot to mention our purpose out in Oregon (There's always a purpose for a trip, especially when you've got paper work piled to the gills at home.) We're out here to do a few installs for Burl's accounts. Before being a rep, Big Burl was and still is a craftsman (?? is that what you call yourself? I'm not sure.) He's been with us since the beginning, building our first OBEY tradeshow booths and custom in-store buildouts. So, when we got to his workshop, it was like a Man's Paradise... Sawdust, Rare Woods to fucks with, Scroll Saws, Drill bits, buckets, tableshits, doo-hickies, and other things I'm not really familiar with. I really felt manly hanging with them...

Here's The install we did for Blackbird in Seattle

close up...

Here's one we did for the Warroom in Seattle.

Here's a four sided one for Snow Con in Seattle.

Unfortunately, I can't show the one we did in Vancouver in it's entirety (until the spot opens up later next month). Danny had to cross the border without me. I'm not sure why I didn't go... I just didn't feel like going to Canada for some reason, or maybe it was this reason?

But, here's a lil sneak peek of what we have going up there... Hi Amanda!

And that's about it... Danny and I thank Burl Darden, Marcus Lalario, Brian R., Jay Good, Mike Scott, Timebomb Dist, and of course you for all the help! I miss the trees!!!

Hello International Peoples of the Internetski,

A few months back, we released the OBEY Swish Tees (Only available in Taiwan) and they flew off the shelves faster than Liberace's Greatest Hits album. So, for the second time, we're releasing the tees again, in a new color way. They're still only available in Taiwan, so I suggest you book the next flight out to Taipei or Kaohsiung or Taichung or Tainan or Keelung. I hear it's nice and muggy during the summer months, so bring your tank tops and capriiiiiiis!

Cakes make us fat and happy.  Thanks Bella....see you tomorrow

Probably one of the best gift the warehouse has ever received....

Someone was rocking some homemade jams....

It is  almost 10:30 pm and there are nearly 300 people in line already.  Get here early to get the goods.  It's gonna be maddness.

Beware of Sage Francis on your way in.

Stocking up for tomorrow.

Thanks for every one's support. See y'all tomorrow.
