Snaps | Them Not, You Do.
There's nothing like a backyard mini ramp built to perfection.
& Here is "The Front Yard", aka Brooklyn Projects Melrose.
Brooklyn Dom is one of the OG's in the game, before Fairfax there was Melrose, this is his home running Brooklyn Projects. I gave this dude a lot of money in the SB days. The level of respect this dude has is amazing, I definitely wouldn't have thought I'd be working with this guy a couple years later.
Jenn Klein checked out the newest Santa Cruz Cruiser, while Dom talked his shit.
Keenan Forever.
Hello
When Wezzie drives, his seat is back farther than mine & I'm a foot taller.
Lil Mike Hundreds gets the ladies.
I'm sure you see this dude here and there on our blog, well here he is again. Rob is fam, he has been making some big moves with his skate & accessory company, MLCS Co. We have a collaboration in the works for 2013.
Jarrett of Asociete came through from The Bay to share their vision & plans for 2012/2013, look out for him & him team.
The number 9 is now called the "Obama's Special".... Fuck That, it's still a "Country Boy" in my book Californian's Know.
Nice Hoodie Ale.
Caught Slippin
Happy Birthday Wezzie, you can now hang out with those chicks who throw too much make up on.

Camo Down to My Boxers.
There's a nice list of different unique camouflage prints such as the woodland, desert, tiger striped, duck hunter (beogam), flecktarn, digital, & now you see a lot of brands incorporating their very own created camos with inspiration from the OGs. It's no question that camo has always had a big impact on street style & even high fashion. Lately, it has been seen on everything from small accessories all the way to tailored garments.
Wezzie & I own piles of camo & fatigue pieces from accessories to vests, jackets down to pants. It is one of the most frequently used pattern/prints in the last few years in the industry from brands such as Supreme, 10 Deep, HUF, The Hundreds, Bape, Sophnet, CLOT, Stussy, Northface, Herschel & the list could keep going but you get the picture. It has always been something that we like to incorporate into our personal style, & thus fourth is incorporated in DYNT seasons. But why since everyone seems to use it? It's something we like, our brand only produces product that we are truly into, we are genuine. We aren't gonna put out product that doesn't directly reflect us just because it's trending, I mean the name is "Do You, Not Them". At the same time, if it's something that is a little mainstream & it's something we are into, we won't let that stop us from producing something unique. If that's the case we will release something later with our own twist on it, matter a fact while we are on the subject we have been waiting for the right time to release some product with one of my favorite camos. No I can't tell you....
You will see some unique pieces from the brand in the future, but if you notice from each season we never over do it & keep in in moderation. Although Camo may be one of our favorite prints, we have only been throwing in hints of it in our seasons.
Stay Tuned.

DYNT S/S Restocked at Kore
Kore is making some big moves this summer, the shop renovations & rebranding is looking good. Make sure you swing by Kore in San Bernardino or Montclair to pick up some DYNT from the "Diplomats Collection". It's been moving pretty fast, so don't be the ones who missed out on past season products.
Snaps | Han Cholo Headquarters
Brandon Schoolhouse has to be one of the most creative minds I have ever come across, some people know him better as Han Cholo. The name came from his DJ days working with "Grand Royal" then the Beastie Boys. What really hits me first is the Star Wars reference, seeing to how I was a heavy Star Wars fan myself. He makes some ill jewelry that have been spotted on the likes of such faces like Rihanna, Snoop Dogg, Fergie, Brad Pitt, Brandy, Lupe Fiasco, Paris Hilton, The RZA, & the list can go on. We got a chance to invade his facility of jewels & even take home some very rare pieces. Check out some photos below:
Thank you Brandon & Genevieve for all the hospitality & help.
