Winning Time...

Spike lookin' way too happy with that bat in his hand, like Reggie laying in an alley somewhere with a busted kneecap...circa 1994!~ *Last one in stock*

Fight the Power...

Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Staten....from the Battery to the top of Manhattan!!

Mo' Better, Mo' Chedda...

The best thing about this movie was the Gang Starr "Jazz Thing" song on the soundtrack.

So you better Do the Right Thing like Spike Lee...

89 was a great year...... Do the Right Thing released, Paul's Boutique hit the shelves, Sega Genesis took the world by storm and the Pistons swept the Lakers in the finals.

Ya'll ain't gave me 40 Acres and a mule, so I got my Glock 40 now I'm cool...

Spike Lee's everywhere, game or the flight...

Breathe Easy...

Ya dudes can't be serious right now
I'm the all time heavyweight champion
I'm leading the league in at least six statistical categories right now
Best product, most consistent, realest stories,
Most charisma, I set the most trends
and my interviews are hotter......holla!
-Jay Z

I think I'm Malcolm X, Martin Luther...

1992: Magic Johnson rockin the Spike Lee Malcolm X snapback while enjoying the olympic festivities in Barcelona. The best part of the photo is dude next to him rockin' the Raiders script hat.....BAWSE!!!

I might wear Black III's for a year straight...

Finally got some new Black III's (the best Jordan of all time IMO) yesterday. My 01's feel apart back in December and I've been looking for a pair of the CDP's but didnt want to buy the pack and wasnt gonna pay $300+ for the III's alone. I got a good deal on a VNDS pair and thats about the jist of it, you've all seen them before so no need for a zillion pics.

X Factor...

Vintage 40 acres Malcolm X satin bomber jacket from the 1992 world tour promoting the movie. This isnt from that Marc Ecko reissue, this is the real deal Holyfield!! I wonder if Spike has one of these???? Just like the snapback below this jacket its too dope for words so just peep the pics!

Snapback of the Week...

Its Monday which can only mean one thing......Snapback of the Week!!!!! This weeks snapback is a vintage 40 Acres and a Mule pinwheel style hat. 40 Acres & A Mule Filmworks is the production company of noted American filmmaker Spike Lee. After the success of films such as Do The Right Thing and Malcolm X, Spike Lee expanded the 40 Acres brand by opening small clothing stores with merchandise that bore the 40 Acres emblem. One of the 40 Acres stores was actually located on Melrose in LA back in the day.

By Any Means Necessary...

Above is a vintage 40 Acres Malcolm X promo t-shirt from the early 90s. The shirt, like a lot of the 40 Acres gear consists of the African colors black/green/red or what is referred to as the "Gucci" colorway now-a-days. Malcolm X is a 1992 biographical film directed by Spike Lee about the African-American activist and black nationalist Malcolm X. The story is based on The Autobiography of Malcolm X as told to Alex Haley. Denzel Washington was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role as Malcolm X.

Jungle Fever...

Lisa Lampanelli needs this shirt for real, hahahaha. Vintage 1991 Jungle Fever promo shirt given to friends and cast members. If you havent seen the movie the plot centers on the interracial romance between a successfully married African American man, Flipper Purify (Snipes), and an Italian-American woman, Angie Tucci (Sciorra). The two meet at their workplace in New York, at an architectural firm where Purify works and Tucci is hired as a temporary secretary. The lovers come under intense pressure from their friends and family as a result of their relationship. A subplot considers the problems of drug abuse, with Flipper's brother Gator (Samuel L. Jackson) a crack addict.

Mo Colors, Mo Better...

Above are two vintage Nike tees from the old Air Raid campaign. The Nike Air Raid II Peace Edition were Nike’s first Outdoor Basketball shoes which featured a wild Tribal African Print designed by Spike Lee in 1993. Last year Nike brought back the Air Raid Urban Jungle white colorway but still havent retroed the black pair which everyone wants......what are they waiting for?? The white shirt is NWT and the black tee is used but we have them both in store along with other rare Air Raid gear like the varsity jacket, button up jersey and the OG kicks!

Like Spike...

"Man, why don't you move back to Massachusetts.....I was born in Brooklyn!" Such a classic movie and the scene above is the most memorable for a lot of people or should I say sneakerheads. We have this amazing vintage DTRT (Do the Right Thing) promo tee from 1989 in stock (actually on the mannequin as we speak). These were given to promoters and members of the entertainment press before the movie’s release so they are rarer than a three dolla bill yall. The shirt is an X-Large and its unworn so it still fits true to size which is hard to find in vintage apparel. Great for a vintage hip hop fan, movie buff, Spike Lee wanna be or just vintage t-shirt addict!
