As many of you may have heard, I will be closing this blog and the forum on Jan 2. I hope that you’ve enjoyed reading this blog as much as I have enjoyed writing it over the years. I’d like to end the blog on a high note, so I bring you a special Q&A with 12th Man creator, Fabio Cavina.
We’ve all watched his tiny brand grow from a small one man operation to something that is about to burst onto the main scene. So without further ado I bring you my last post. Thanks for reading!

Picked my sample jacket which the upcoming FNYC, Ma.Strum and Osti Archive jacket collaboration will be based off.

Best jacket I’ve seen in a while and after getting to spend the day with it, realize that finally a serious rival to SPW has emerged. Click below to see more photos.
