Project 4000 – Shut Up & Read


Optiko – Tattersall’s Arcade, Brisbane

2010-07-28-Optiko-1

Ok so a while ago yours truly needed some new spectacles and while gallivanting through the city we found the mothership of Eyewear, quiet possibly the best optical store I personally have ever stumbled into. Vintage, quirky, stylish, cool, praise worthy and the most eclectic collection of eyewear as far as the eye can see (pun wholeheartedly intended). I’ve been to great stores in Paris, London, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore and Bangkok, but no one place has ever offered more than the 4000’s own, Optiko at Tattersall’s Arcade, Brisbane.

- P4, read on and see what’s in store

I have been a big fan of the comedy stylings of Terry Crews for a long time, he has always stood out from being the hard working father on Everybody Hates Chris, internet meme sensation of the Old Spice ads to being the only memorable part of the movie “White Chicks” where we all first witnessed his amazing dancing skills. This is both amazing and hilarious, truly a committed character actor.

- T, Papapapa-POWER!!!

Those bloody fixie riders are always ruining tyres, ever wondered what happens to all that rubber? Well the naughty tyres go on to become Crocs. The lucky tyres become womens fetish accessories… but a select few get turned into Jiro belts and accessories. Recycling is the name of the game here, and that’s a good a good thing in my book, plus they look nifty regardless. There’s a substantial range of belts, keyrings and bracelets to take a gander at via their website.

You can grab Jiro from our homies at Sup Clothing as of… now.

This gorgeous pair of Feit Moc Hi Boots in luscious Ox Blood Leather just arrived at my door steps. Just the best boots out period, because unlike most of the work boots that are meant for ermmm working, these shoes are made by people who know a thing or two about fit and out of the box comfort. Feit’s don’t require you to spend a whole month walking around with blood soaked socks.

- T, took this photo during my visit to the Feit Store in Sydney, big ups to Josh.

- t, I got my Stitchdowns last week which are equally excellent.

Once you start reading the posts on this site you may come across some stuff you’ve seen before in viral emails such as the seven legged spider or the giant shark. I suggest starting off with this post.

As far back as I can remember this is the first time in history…HISTORY!!! Michael Jordan has graced the cover of a official NBA game and for the first time will be featured in all his glory in the latest rendition of NBA 2k11. The last time I can remember MIchael Jordan in a game would’ve been NBA Street Volume 2, which was fucking brilliant at the time.

- T, this is just EPIC!!!

La Roux has been climbing the charts for sometime now, Major Lazer mashed up some of their more popular tracks in this new mixtape, they bang pretty hard! I’m not big on electronica but good music is good music.
