RECAP: CHAMPION SHOWCASE POPS OFF DOPE VIBES AT TRIED + TRUE CO.

Lo and behold, Champion‘s sole responsibility for supplying us with sweatshirts and sweatpants has wandered into streetwear territory and we can’t wait to get our hands on some of their 2014 Street Active Collection. This past Friday, we had the absolute pleasure of co-hosting Champion USA’s pop-up-slash-launch party on Fairfax’s vintage threads shop, Tried + True Co.

The launch party had every inkling of hip-hop present: classic rap jams (no semblance of “Who is Outkast?” in this jawn) provided by DJ Hapa and DJ Seano, b-boys and b-girls servin’ the floor and Hennessy pouring. To top it off, artist Mike Norice was in full effect, conjuring up a dope live painting piece featuring the illicit Wu-Tang Clan;  we talkin’ “C.R.E.A.M” — Champion Rules Everything Around Me. Dolla-dolla bill, ya’ll.
