Gourmet | Quattro Skate | Spring/Summer 2011

gourmet-2011-springsummer-quattro-skate-00-Word-in-Town

I came across Gourmet a couple of years back while I was at a friends house in LA. At first I wasn’t to into their silhouettes but now the more I look at them the more I like them. It sure opens your eyes to what’s possible in shoe design.

I’ve been meaning to cop a pair of these Gourmet Quattro Skate. I’ve tried them on, walked on them but I still haven’t bought a pair. I guess it hasn’t been the right time for me but I notice a few things: besides the slender silhouette it offers and forward thinking style. The mix of leather upper and suede overlay makes it extra comforting for the top of the foot. The soles seems to be gummy enough for good board grip and feel. While it may not be an every day skate shoe, it will sure turn some heads if you can afford to skate on them. Werd!

Winter Music Conference or Miami Music Week | Miami, FL

Winter-Music-Conference-The-Word-In-Town-2011

Last night was what used to be one of my favorite parties of the year. I’m talking about the Wednesday party at Mansion with DJ Roger Sanchez. This party was kind of like the kick-off for Winter Music Conference; however, since last year some thing went down between WMC and Ultra. What went down? Only those who were involved really know. All I know is that this Music conference is not as good as the once before… Werd!

Oh, and what do we call it now: Winter Music Conference or Miami Music Week?
