Cashletes - Streetwear Clothing

Cashletes.

Say it.

It sounds cool already. Great name.



"The Brand Designed for Financial Champions." These guys have created four teams to represent in their Dream League.



There has to be a California team in the Financial Champions League. Gold is a smart investment in today's up and down economic market.



The Washington DC Dead Presidents... Is that you, George? Nice.



The New York Paper Chasers. Keep chasing that money down. Start recycling those cans. Do whatever it takes.

There is also an Atlanta Bankheads team, but these are the three nicest logos in my book.

The website also has some great articles on Starter Jackets and Snapback Hats. Follow the links if you care to read these articles.

Cashletes!

Respect the hustle.

Double Dragon = Innovation



Super Mario Brothers was cool. And I loved Mega-Man and Legend of Zelda.



And just so we're crystal clear, nothing in the world ever compares to the joy that is Super Tecmo Bowl (Greatest Video Game Of All-Time).

However, a cartridge that is often overlooked when ranking out some of the greatest games of all-time is Double Dragon.



When you played Super Mario Bros. you had to switch off and share.

I understand that "Sharing is Caring," but when you're 12 years old, it's hard to rap your head around that concept.



In steps.... Double Dragon!! You mean we can play at the same time! Two guys fighting on the screen at the same time! Like Contra, only with kicks, punches and headbutts!!



You still had a female to save. And sometimes you fought these Giant dudes.



You could also pick up a bat and swing it, throw a barrell at a pack of dudes, and give a few flying kicks.

Double Dragon, an underrated classic from back in the day...

Warehouse Pizza in La Verne

Call me a Pizza Princess. I like my pizza a particular way. Crust has to be light, salty and crisp..... complimenting the actually slice.



Sauce needs to tangy, sweet, with a little bit of zip. Even the color of the sauce is important to me. I like that Angels red. Makes it taste better.



I need my pepperonis to be done just right. Slightly curled and blackened around the edges. The pepperonis should almost take on a bowl shape with a little pool of grease in the middle (yuck!/ yum!)



This is Warehouse Pizza in La Verne, CA. Some of the best pizza I have come across in a long time.



The slices were almost juicy, and that's a good thing.



If you're ever out in the area hit up this local pizza spot. It's in the San Bernadino/ Raging Waters/ 57/ 10/ 210 area.



We were out snowboarding at Mount Baldy for the day and needed a quick fix.

Great recommendation!!

Hot Off the Grill...



Hot Off the Grill in Huntington Beach. Bolsa Chica and Heil is the one I go to, but they have four other locations.



Look at that Pastrami Sandwich. Do I really need to say much?



These are fried zucchini strips. Damn... Fresh, fried, and seems like a half pound of grub. Excellent.



Taquitos look authentic, and when I say authentic I mean good.



They also serve up some incredible shakes, so save room for a little dessert... if you dare.

New Era Myrtle Beach Pelican Hat

Pelicans are great.

Check out my previous post about a pelican I met one afternoon at a burger place in Sunset Beach named Harry's Grill.



This hat is for a minor league baseball team named the Myrtle Beach Pelicans. The hat has a classy logo and great colors. And for them to be playing out of Myrtle Beach, that's a real nice fit.



Pick it up at Lids.

SANTASTIC!

We all descended from the same cavemen.



That's my interpretation of this hat from Santa Ionue 's brand SANTASTIC.




I also saw the above advertisement for an upcoming line on their website. No idea what it says, but it looks heavenly. It looks like a collaboration between the music group GUY and SANTASTIC. Hats, Tees, and Polos. WOW!



Style is so sick. Cutting edge.



Beautiful.

HAIKU
Santastic.
Clean. Sharp like shark's teeth.
Simple eyes.
