Every season we partner with our close allies when it is time to shoot a new brand book and visual assets. We are thankful for the support of our local family from APOLIS ACTIVISM, GOURMET, and TIMBERLAND for outfitting our crew and models in the correct clothing and footwear for our trip. Our global comrades from France, Bell & Ross supported the Summer 2011 campaign with functional submersible timepieces for our expeditionary endeavor to Kauai. The watch featured above is the Marine BR 02 44mm in Carbon PVD and Steel finish with rubber wristband. This Dive watch is built like a tank and withstood all the elements that Kauai had to offer. Below are some of the shots that feature both watches in different areas of the island.

So Joe’s Jeans had a booth that was walled in by cross sections of what must have been huge trees, not sure what the story was with the trees definitely have to say that i was disturbed by this.
The Diesel booth was pretty ill, it was constructed out of VHS video tapes, it was really creative minus there campaign tag line and the current line.

Some of you might be fortunate enough actually know who these gentlemen are. This image captures some of the heaviest hitters in footwear and beyond and i would have to say that if you have ever been in the shoe game and keep up with the illest kicks, these are the guys who are responsible for many past, present and future footwear collections and amazing retail stores. Campin out for a shoe drop has become a culture here in the west coast, more so in Los Angeles. La Brea and Fairfax ave have become the mecca for many shoe collectors and this saturday at the UNDFTD on La Brea the new GOURMET + UNDFTD Quattro releases at ALL Undftd locations.
