If you’re looking for a unique fitted hat that combines contemporary urban style and aesthetic with old world craftsmanship and precision, then look no further than 1333 Minna.
1333 Minna is part of the Goorin Brothers hatmakers group, and “is an evolving alliance of artists and designers based in the heart of San Francisco. Each seasonal collection is crafted form fine fabrics adorned with custom patterns and inspired illustrations”.
This spring, the collection is designed by Reyes, Steel, Retna, and The Mac, all members of the world famous seventh letter crew. Each item is designed to challenge the limits of traditional design, while telling the stories of the artists through color, texture, and patterns.
There’s no denying that hats like these take a bold style to pull off right, but if that’s your thing, then 1333 Minna is for you.

Crocs may be going out of style (and for many people, they never came into style in the first place), but that just means that something else needs to take their place.
Swims are definitely trying, and the waterproof overshoe actually does provide some function, so it’s not just all form.
Available in either Classic (low) or Mobster (high) style, Swims are designed to slip over your regular shoes, and provide protection from the elements.
Can these take the throne from the current Croc king?

As Earth Day winds to a close, it’s time to start thinking about what you can actually do to save the planet.
To help you out, Wire & Twine put together a list of 50 Ways to Help the Planet, and in case you’re the forgetful type, they also created a shirt with an icon for each of the 50 ways to help you remember.
Suggestions include not pre-heating the oven, hang drying your clothes, showering with a partner, and going to the car wash, so it’s a list of things that you can actually do without drastically changing your lifestyle, which means you’re more likely to follow through with them.

Chinny Chin Chin’s Pigeon Ring Necklaces take the band that identifies racing pigeons and turns them into jewelry.
Wear a little piece of sporting greatness around your neck with this original pigeon racing ring necklace. Complete with sterling silver chain and individual pigeon profile.
It’s fantastically morbid, and trashy chic, which goes well with the whole pigeon motif.
Would you wear one?

If you happen to be shopping for shirts inside of a Target, then be sure to stop by the EGPApparel section, because they’re selling shirts that not only feature artwork from Experimental Gameplay Project games, they actually feature the games themselves on a CD that comes with each one.
Supporting indie game developers and getting a unique looking shirt out of the deal; all at the same time?
I’ll take two.
