As we roll into a new year, we cant help but reflect on the past. The past for Play Cloths involved a lot of choreographed dancing in the street and rocking ‘LO which just reminds me of the video for Zhiggie’s “Toss it up”.

Ok, not so much on the dancing, im pretty sure that never happened, but did you see the crispy Polo Stadium Jackets? Stuntastic!

In an effort to acclimate themselves with the Re-Up Gang Audience, Visa now introduces their own version of the American Express Centurion or “Black Card”. The invite only Visa Black Card , available to only 1% of the public offers 24hour full service concierge level perks, priority access at airports, hotels and more.

I just checked my mail and still no black card invite, but i just made my own with a sharpie and a library card. Jealous?

For all the Lo’ heads these boots are a familiar sight. The “Cookie Boots”,The quintessential footwear for purveyors of Classic Ralph Lauren Collections. They were perfect for running from the store security after you got spotted stealing that Snow Beach hoodie from the Bloomingdales dressing room.

You may not be boosting anymore but Mr. Lipshitz and Co. decided to do us a favor and re release the Cookie Boots at David Z retailers for Holiday ‘08.

Feels like ‘92 again.

Some people can’t leave well enough alone. In the quest for worst idea ever, someone decided that the world needed another Street Fighter Movie. This time starring the girl from Smallville and the big guy from Green Mile. If Jean Claude Van Damme were dead, he would be turning over in his grave. Actually hes probably turning over someone elses grave right now looking for change. How the mighty have fallen.

Cell phone gun huh? interesting concept, bad execution. Great way to put a bullet in someone if it didn’t look like an 80’s era Motorola Startac. Im expecting that anyone that whipped out a phone that looked like something Zach Morris would be calling AC Slater on did not have the best of intentions.

These phones are not in the U.S. yet, but they are in use overseas. Beneath the digital phone face is a 22 caliber handgun capable of firing four rounds in rapid succession using the standard telephone keypad.

Airport security is going to have a field day with this one.

Tis’ the season! Most of us by the skin of our teeth have made it through another year of pratfalls and prosperity. So before it comes time endure uncomfortable familial gift giving and find another new years resolution to disregard for the until 2010, Play Cloths would like to bestow upon you a sincere, non-denominational Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones. This year has seen the economy turn for the worse and the government turn for the better so its our hope that in the coming year the windfall of success reaches you regardless of what f*#ked up situation that the country is in come ‘09

The Last season here at Play Cloths has been hectic, full of early days and late nights. The Guys here in the office will be taking some well deserved time off from burning the candle at both ends. The office will be closed from Dec 24th to Dec 28th so any orders processed in our online store between those dates will not be shipped until Dec 29th.

Seems like every afterschool cartoon from the mid 80’s is getting the remake treatment, and while you might have to wait a while for that Rainbow Brite movie, some overzealous fans with a lot of time on their hands and more than likely no girlfriends have strung together a fake trailer for a Thundercats movie.

If youre anything like us, after you copped the Play Cloths Tees and the gift certificates to the corner bodega, you were kind of stumped on gift ideas for the upcoming holiday.

Someone was crafty enough to knit a collection of dolls for the adolescent sociopath in your life. With a hefty dose of the macabre, these dolls bring about that certain holiday spirit that you can only get from your cousin who tries to re-enact scenes from Saw 4 in your bathroom.

By now you should know what this video entails. The Brothers Thornton dropping ominous hints about the forthcoming album, This time with DJ Khalil (One of my favorite producers by the way, check his work with Self Scientific).

The pure excitement in their faces about the upcoming project. It’s like a kid who just found his uncle’s stash of Playboy mags. Except this vid doesn’t have sticky pages.
