Fresh off of a collaboration with the La Coka Nostra crew (featuring Dissizit! co-founder Danny Boy O'Connor, formerly of House of Pain) which included the now-infamous Carmen Electra Hates La Coka Nostra Tee, graffiti legend and Dissizit founder / head designer Slick comes back swingin' and sprayin' his way to the top of the streetwear food chain.
The latest drop from Dissizit! features the big, bold graphics you have come to expect from Slick and crew. The Fuck the Love Tee puts an L.A. twist of the iconic Love Park sculpture in Philadelphia, and the print says it all. No time for love, Doctor Jones. And with a basic, sharp-as-a-glass-cutter logo dubbed the "DxRing," Dissizit! shows you what's up in the art of getting down with the namesake tee. Expect to see this logo stenciled all over your neighborhood sooner rather than later.
Always some reliable heads to stay ahead of the game, Slick and Dissizit! come correct with two innovative tees, The Pixel Skull Tee and The DxBones Pixel Tee, a coincidental nod to the hype surrounding this week's Conficker computer virus scare. Worms are meant to be eaten after killing a bottle of Mexico's finest, not for computers. Show that squirmy motherfucker that you're not phased and cop these before you're forced to buy a knockoff on some other site in a few weeks... if your internet is still connected.

With the subtlety of a kick to the face, we hinted at the release of Triumvir's Civil War line a month ago and the response was overwhelming. The good folks we are here at Karmaloop. when you demand, we supply.
It is officially spring time, so your tee game better be on point. With the weather warming up, you can't just throw a fresh hoody over that same tee you've rocked to death all winter, and there's no where else to start stocking up other than Karmaloop with one of our favorites in Triumvir. With all new graphics so dope they should be sold in grams, Triumvir's Civil War tees are set to bring out the soldier in everyone. Be sure to check out staff favorites The Finger Tee and The Calligraphy Tee, not to mention standouts in The Dead Caesars Tee and The Civil War Tee, pictured above. And with summer juuuuuust around the corner, battle that lingering chill with The Gallia Long Sleeve Button Ups, featuring three crisp flannel patterns in navy blue, red and yellow, as seen below.

Riding High, The UNDRCRWN, The Metropolis
New York giants UNDRCRWN return to Karmaloop fresh off of a collaboration with the mighty Mos Def.
UNDRCRWN had to have been faced with some serious pressure following its enormous success in seasons past with tees featuring caricatures of Barack Obama, Martin Luther King, Jr., The Notorious B.I.G. and Slick Rick, as well as sports caricatures of many, including O.J. Mayo and Michael Beasley for the 2008 NBA Draft and Muhammed Ali and George Foreman from a still of the epic "Thrilla in Manilla" bout.
However, Dustin Canalin and company make like Ray Allen from the charity stripe and swish on its first attempt back with a series of tees inspired by a Karmaloop favorite, Mos Def. We've been down with Mos since his Rawkus Records days, including the bangers on the Lyricist Lounge and Soundbombing series, not to mention the all-time classic Black Star record with brethren Talib Kweli. And who could possibly forget Black on Both Sides or the way-too-overlooked The New Danger (featuring members of another favorite band, Bad Brains), moreover his acting stints on The Chappelle Show, Monster's Ball or as the voice of Gangstalicious on The Boondocks animated series? He is most definitely a renaissance man of our age, so it's only fitting a brand as versatile as UNDRCRWN would pay tribute with some ill designs in his honor.
Check out the rest of the UNDRCRWN x Mos Def collaboration at Karmaloop here, and be sure to check out The Marcy Track Jacket and The Bullshit Crewneck as well... madness.
"Callin' From the Funhouse..."
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE!!!
Our boys and girls from Down Under, Insight, pay tribute to the Godfather of Punk, the Iguana, the one, the only, James Newell Österberg Jr., a.k.a. Iggy Pop.
With his off-the-wall and onto-the-floor stage antics, including everything from covering himself in peanut butter, rolling around in shards of glass, puking on audience members after consuming enough narcotics to kill an army and performing in outrageous outfits (if anything at all), Iggy Pop forever changed the way we listen to, behold and even think about rock & roll.
Following an all-too-brief career with hometown friends Ron and Scott Asheton and Dave Alexander of Ann Arbor, Michigan as lead singer of The Stooges (a history of which should be an entire set of books, much less a blog), Iggy burned bridges and left a wake of excess with every imaginable music industry outlet until he was left for dead and long-forgotten by his peers in other legendary acts such as the New York Dolls, The Ramones and the MC5. It wasn't until 1976 when Iggy was visited at one of many, many, many rehab stints by David Bowie, who convinced Iggy that, despite the lack of commercial appeal or monetary success of The Stooges, he was a one-of-a-kind musician and deserved a second (okay... third, fourth or fifth) chance at success. Bowie essentially babysat Iggy throughout a world tour, where Iggy came to realize that hard work, not performing in a haze of inebriation, was the key to success.
Following his greatest solo achievements to date with albums The Idiot and Lust for Life in 1977, Iggy tirelessly released album after album throughout the 1980's, among those New Values and Zombie Birdhouse, both oft-overlooked works of, in our humble opinion, a tormented and shattered, yet eloquent and sensitive musical genius. Insight must share out sentiment for the Igg-ster's catalog, using the latter two albums, as well as 1977's Kill City, as insipration for three of its latest spring line standouts.
The Kill City Button Up shirt, with it's edgy, near-militaristic design (damn, those epaulettes!) is made for giving it up and turning it loose as the shirt's namesake song lyrics suggest. Despite a soft, 100% cotton composition, this one looks hard as hell, especially with the intricate pinstriped lining around the collar... the whole scene is a fascination, man.
A perfect companion to the button-up is The New Values Cardigan; a navy blue composition with royal blue piping is the Bowie to Iggy in blending these two together for a night of hell-raising. There's one new value that has finally come your way.
Iggy, the rock & roll Jesus that he is with his many reincarnations, is caricatured perfectly on The Zhombie Birdhouse Tee. The text at the bottom reading "Cupido Enim Vita (Passion is Life)" perhaps explains why Iggy has surpassed lifespans of many of his peers. Rock & roll music has always been the man's passion, as evidenced by his insistance in bringing the sounds of himself and The Stooges to generation after generation as the group continued to tour up until very recently.
Be sure to check out the rest of the Insight spring line at Karmaloop here for even more rock & roll madness.
What's the Time? IT'S TIME TO GET ILL!
We're not the types of people who like wasting our time. Thankfully, our good dudes at Nixon have us covered all 24 hours a day.
Creating timeless (pun intended) watches since 1997 in the EscoZoo, California, Nixon originally catered for the skate, snow and surf crowds, but with the drop of these pieces here, we would be totally afraid to crash and smash with these keeping us on time. But with such hard-as-nails riders on its team like Andrew Reynolds, Paul Rodriguez, J.P. Walker and the Irons brothers, Nixon proves that its watches don't just look good, but are damned near bulletproof as well.
For the rider who likes to shred before work or class, The Tach, Outsider or Newton watch is the one for you. And for the especially recession-proof out there, take a look at the Elite Class watches, namely the 5130 All Gold, Mayor and Banks watches. With gold composition and super smooth brown tones, you'll be looking like Jack Horner straight out of Boogie Nights. Rollergirl not included.
"Man, We Be Sportin' Vans and We Throw Away Nikes..."
We're definitely not the only ones with a fondness for everything Authentic, Era, Chukka, Sk8 Hi or Slip-On. Since the dawn of Vans circa 1966 in Anaheim, California, everyone from Stacy Peralta to Jeff Spicoli to Tony "TNT" Trujillo to hip hop group The Pack and hardcore punkers Suicide Machines have expressed serious pride for their Vans, and with just one day of walking, skating or snowboarding in them, you too would know why.
Check out the rest of the latest Vans line at Karmaloop here, and check out this clip of original Z-Boy, Jay Adams, and check out how far our dear Vans have come.
