CUBE Kuala Lumpur opens its door at Berjaya Time Square, Kuala Lumpur on 2nd September 2007. Streetwear enthusiasts queued up way before it was opened hoping to get their hands on the limited edition gears. CUBE crew had the honour to bring Protest & Nomadic Designers - Laz and Raymond all the way from Hong Kong to grace the occasion. It is the first official store to carry brands for Non Negative, Wrong Works, Enclosion and Protest & Nomadic. If you are in the area, you must pay a visit to this friendly store.

Streething is currently assisting Nike to execute a very interesting project which is to customize the 400% Nike Windrunner Be@rbrick for Nike’s upcoming Windrunner Campaign.
All we need you talented and creative people to do are the following: -
1) Just customize the be@rbrick without blocking out the chevron (V) design on the front, or the Nike logo.
2) You have to pick up the be@rbrick from 17th September onward and return them by 26th September.
3) This is a joint effort therefore there’s no payment. Tt’s a great exposure as your work will be displayed at various Nike stores during the Nike Windrunner campaign.
Please email your profile to info@streething.com if you are interested in taking part. Restricted to Malaysian Residents ONLY. First come first serve.

What a turnout for Sole Obsession 3rd Chapter!!! We are eternally grateful to every single one of you who turned up to support the 3rd Sole Obsession event. No matter what you were rocking…Nike, Puma, NB, Reebok, Vans, Converse, Bape, Clot, Supreme, NBHD, Visvim, etc…we love all of you with as much love as we can give back!!!
All those who came out to have a good time last night…you guys (and gals) rock!!!!! We keep reiterating, but it’s the darn honest truth, Sole Obsession could never happen without the massive outpouring and support of those who still believe we still have and can have a sneaker and street scene of our own.
It was amazing to see the number of people who came to hang out, have a few beers and check out the display…extremely heartening and this makes us want to carry on doing what we do. What we saw was greatly encouraging for the local scene and we hope it will grow and grow.
Congratulations to all those who won the prizes…it was a crazy giveaway and we wished we had kept some of the prizes for ourselves! Glad to see some familiar faces walk away with the prizes…Thrashertok and Reysol69…big ups for the love and support!!
Last but not least we gotta give shoutouts to all the sponsors and customisers involved…the list is long but necessary props is due:
