STREEThing

This Weekend, Hong Kong’s most hyped streetwear brand, Silly Thing, will be reopening their Think Silly store in Chai Wan, Hong Kong, with a brand new redesign to suit their current image. The usage of seasoned timber bestows a more rustic-aesthteic, that gives the store a more warm and organic appearance. Those in the neighbourhood can drop by on Saturday to check it out.

Think Silly Store, Shop 8, Block B, Ka Yip St, Chai Wan, Hong Kong; T +852 2881 8002.

On a recent trip to Singapore, we asked Danny from Surrender to share with us three of favourite in-store items. Being the only official stockist of Visvim in South East Asia, it’s unsurprising that Danny picked out three Visvim items. For those who don’t know, Surrender are also the sole official stockists in South East Asia for Clot, Hysteric Glamour and Head Porter. So it’s not as if the guy didn’t have choices, it was just that Visvim’s offerings were too hot to resist.

We recently asked the boys at Limited Edt Vault to share with us, in their personal opinion, the three hottest items in-store. Surprisingly, there was still some adidas Consortium range leftover, and we have to agree with the ZX700 ‘mammoth’ boat. But since this episode of Prime Cuts was taken earlier in the month, chances that it would still be there are between slim and none. But, you never know, if could be your lucky day - so phone or headover and demand some mammoth!

We recently asked Dan of Leftfoot, Far East Plaza, to show us three of his hot picks for the month. Since he was so nice to oblige, we have decided to share three facts that you probably don’t need to know about him. First, due to his love of Vans kicks, Dan is known to many of the Streething crew as ‘Dan the Van’. Second, the shop that he takes care of is often referred to as ‘Dan’s Shop’. Last but not least, Dan dines so frequently at Carls Jr, that the company has created a platinum VIP card just for him.

*All statements about Dan (the Van) may or may not be totally accurate or true.

Leftfoot, 14 Scotts Road, Far East Plaza, 03-94, Singapore 225213; Tel +65 6734 3227.

Here we are again at Ann Siang Road, Singapore. The upmarket area is always a great place to relax, eat, and of course - shop. We ask Chris of Scandinavian design specialists Style : Nordic, to share with us three of his favourite items of the season. It’s been a long time since we pulled on a pair of Nudies, since they are nowhere to be found in Malaysia. Although Chris chose the skinny cut Thin Finns, there are a wide range of contemporary cuts to suit a wide range of styles, which leads us into bastardizing a popular phrase by proclaiming, “Nudies can’t fail!”.
