So Leslie, wanted the crew at wrgmag to send x-mas wishes to all the readers of the magazine this is my version.

So Christmas is here and it’s the time of giving and receiving, well the older you get I feel the less and less you receive, so x-mas came early and my friends over at Nike sent over some goodies. Shout out to the MB’s of the world for always taking care of a brother. What happens when a bag off of Santa’s sled accidentally falls off and drops in the hood? Presents for me is the correct answer!

Looks a litlle like spring 08 dunks to me…

About a years ago I had the privilege to have dinner with Chris Julien and Samantha Alonso the creative minds behind Fruition Las Vegas, the number 1 vintage luxury streetwear shop in the world. Like everyone else, I heard about the shop trough the blogsphere and made it a point to visit the shop while I was in Vegas for the trade show season. What impressed me about the power couple was their knowledge on fashion, subcultures and their passion for the lifestyle. We spoke about everything from the shop, their future involvement with Kanye West, the future of Las Vegas and their role in the every growing market of streewear culture. Chris and Samantha have a very spriritual approach to life as well, always giving thanks to God for their blessings and opportunities. Fruition is not just their retail operation it has been a life long dream for the two and have finally seen this magnificent operation come to fruition hence the name.

Meet Chris Julien
