The Brooklyn Circus x Chi-town

What up Chi-Town, we're in town. It's cold,windy and the city is bracing itself for a snowstrom. Oh well, the show must go on. Autumn repping The BKC in Chicago is getting hitched Saturday and we are scouting locations for The next venture. Keep in mind Autumn' big day is this saturday and we will be blasting the beautiful moment right here on The Circus blog. The people want to see you on your special day A!, the public life is not private, :)

Today: Just chilled in The Gold Coast and took it light,coming from the warm NYC weather to this cold, the kid had to take it easy. Checked out Jake, a pretty cool spot that had the hottest Cloak Jacket on Earth for $1300- I could not pull the trigger on that one. I then moved on to Barneys, Bloomingdales,The Adidas original store and the Apple store to find power cord for the Laptop- Busy body I am, I left the power cord on my desk,so I have to conserve this battery for the entire trip- I travelled allover this city and all the stores were sold out of the Power Book adapter,they only had ones for the pro Book -How nice. Apple sure knows how to get your money man.Tomorrow I'll hook up with Brian and check the folks over at Leaders,St.Alfred,Phli and ofcourse Hejfina (love that spot)

Book em' & Get Brain

I read somewhere that the modern man can shop as much as his female counterpart. However we tend to spend more on Books,electronics and now footwear. Really? We'll I've had this thing for beautifull books,art and yes the footwear thing as well. I decided to look through my library of things,books first and share them with you. You can expect some of these tittles to pop up at The Brooklyn Circus near you. Yep! Boooks boy,boy,get brain!!!.

Burger and Friends x The Brooklyn Circus handscreened,hand assembled wallets are in, stop by and cop one of these babies. We only produced 35 of this artwork and will be producing them in series of three in each group. collect them,rock them,own one or own ten. Gabe and I had a conversation about wallets a few weeks back, he's Jim Jones "Baaaaalling" and spends top dollar on a wallet.Me, I don't carry money on me to warrant investing in a serious wallet,but since seeing these, my metro card,library card and lottery tickets have a new home. I am going to the bodega tomorrow morning to flash my new wallet on Pappy, he's always asking me about something I have on. Watch him say something about the new wallet,I bet ya!. lOolll Yep!

Boon Japan x The Brooklyn Circus

Thanks again Ken. He joined us today for a shoot for Boon Japan magazine.
Note: If ever you show up at The Brooklyn Circus and see a camera crew,lights,model chics,Yep Model chics,limos,complimentary champagne, ok, ok we might be streching it a bit-Model chics sounded nice. But my point is if you see a shoot going on during our hours, please do not feel like you are interupting. Everything we do is for the love of this and if we have more love for the cameras,we've lost ourselves. We will always try to stop and cater to you our guest and beloved clients. Hell, you may find yourself in the photoshoot if you got fresh that day. Beleive me it has happened before,ask around. So get fresh when shopping at The Brooklyn Circus, you never know you might end up in a magazine or a TV show. You are never in the way, you are the way . . . that was good right? Yep! (Give me author credits if you jack my quotes).






Nylon x The Brooklyn Circus

Life is Great In the 718 . . .
Brooklyn We made it! Wad up? looll nah. We'd like to thank all the folks at Nylon Guys Magazine for the story in this month's issue. Ofcourse special thanks to all the previous magazines that have featured our store,our clothing or our vision in their pages.Warp Japan,Woofin'Japan,Freshnessmag.com,highsnobiety.com,LTD,411 Japan,212 magazine Worldwide,Laced,Kicksclusive,Ollie Japan,NY Press, I know I am missing some-no love lost,please. Once the long awaited site is up we'll have a section for you to enjoyall a complete press section. I am sure we'll enjoy it more than you, Are we vain? :) We love this ish and love you more Brooklyn !!!!

Our opinion: Nylon guys is paving the way to lead in men's fashion from the streets up. I am writting it here, so that we get credit for predicting it first. Why you might ask: Every issue and version (Nylon guys,Nylon music, Nylon holiday guide and more I think.) is heartfelt and well researched-again our opinion. ie: They found The Brooklyn Circus on a side street with no sign. Are we vain? Yep! Brooklyn we love you.!

Go and pick up the issue,read the article (P.32 Life is Great In the 718 . . .) a well written article by Jared Flint. You'll also enjoy the rest of the magazine. It does not feel like folks are being paid to feature or write about certain brands.

Mighty Crown x The Brooklyn Circus

Now if you listen to reggae you of course know who Mighty Crown "World clash Winners" with Selectors Sammy T & Simon are. For my sneaker heads:
The Mighty Crown Dunks (see pics below) were designed for them. Well yesterday we were blessed with a visit from Sammy T, who heard about The Brooklyn Circus and came to do some shopping with us and that he did. We kicked it for a while, and kicked around some possible projects. With the respect I have for Reggae music,these guys work and our love for this game I will see to it that the projects come to life, you have my word. The Brooklyn Circus Music,Yep!

Mighty Crown History:
Mighty Crown aka The Far East Rulaz
Mighty Crown Members: Cojie(Selector), Sami-T(Selector/MC), Masta Simon (MC/Owner), Super-G(Selector/MC), and Ninja(Selector/MC)

Mighty Crown was founded in 1991 by friends from Yokohama, Japan . . .
. . . Living in the United States from the early 90's and gradually learned the Jamaican language and the dancehall flex by hanging out in studios, record shops, and in the streets of Brooklyn, NY. They started playing at local clubs in Brooklyn and Manhattan around 1992 and eventually lead their way to the World Clash '99 held in Brooklyn, NY. On their first appearance in World Clash'99, they defeated sounds from Jamaica and the United States and became the first Japanese sound to get the World Clash trophy. Since then, they have been touring major cities in the United States (New York, Miami, Tampa, Orlando, Atlanta, Houston, Boston, Washington DC, Virginia, Conneticutt, New Jersey, and etc.), the Caribbean (Jamaica, Antigua, Bermuda, Trinidad and Tobago, St. Lucia, Barbados, St Kitts, and etc), and Europe ( England, Germany, Switzerland, and etc.) . Starting in year 2000, Mighty Crown teams up with Irish & Chin ENT and strengthens their works Internationally.

Today, Mighty Crown has become the household name not only in Japan but throughout the dancehall scene worldwide.

Mighty Crown is one of the sounds to prove to the world that reggae music is an international music and that you can accomplish ANYTHING you set your mind to. ANYTHING!!!

    The Brooklyn Circus Update

    So much work, but so little time to post. With so much going on you would think we'd be posting and keeping you up to date as much as possible,but it's quite the opposite.

Yep you heard right, another imfamous 1 Day Sale. When,when you least expect it. Why? Because you call so much,asking about our product everyday that we became friends. So it'll be our Friends and Family 1 Day Sale, thanking you for all the Love.

    The BKC and Rich Yung goods came into the store, but had to go to our warehouse for quality control and inventory. It will not go on sale until after our imfamous 1 day sale. Two events you cannot miss. Yep!

    The Rich Yung Blue Blood Pack

    The Rich Yung Blue Blood Pack, part of of The Rich Yung Secret Society release will be available at The Brooklyn Circus very very soon. Comes complete with a Navy Blue hoody, a Navy Blue crew neck and a black Tee. The crew neck and Tshirts are tonal prints, It's a secret society drop, so that makes complete sense. It would not be a secret if it was loud right? But the hoody is pretty blingy with the deconstructed Blue flag and silver trimmings,signature Rich Yung yep!. In my opinion one of the top three Rich Yung pieces to date.

    Pre-order your Blue Blood pack by calling The Brooklyn Circus 718.222.9772. first come,first served.
    Hoody,Crew Neck and tshirt complete $450.00 you save $170 big ones.

    You know we get the most Rich Yung globally so stay tuned- It's a Rich Yung season.
    Pictures will be posted shortly: Blogspot is acting up right now.
