B-Boys Make Mad Noise

One of our homies, Duncan Tran, is doing big things in his life and following his dream. You may have seen his commercials for Target, his moves on an ad for Footaction or numerous music videos for Jadakiss and such. Well, he stepped up the bar and is now featured in a full length movie titled "B-Boy". Be on the lookout for the movie to drop next year. In the meantime, catch this trailer and pause it with your Flash Gordon reflexes and you can spot the first round Beau Monde New Era at the 1:48 mark falling to the ground. Much love and luck to Duncan as he keeps on expanding his ventures and pursuing his dream. Thanks for the love and support homie, see you soon and good luck man!

Nothing Like This

I guarantee you have never seen something like this before, and if you have, shoot us an e-mail and prove us wrong. This piece that we would like to showcase comes from one of our friends and loyal customer, Tony Bohn. He is an artist looking to cause a ruckus in the art scene and he also packs a mean punch. This piece is hand-crafted from his mind using an altoid tin box and various materials. He is also creating pieces using numerous hip-hop legends as the models so be on the look out. To get a better idea of who he is, here's a little background info on Mr. Bohn.


Anthony Bohn has been an artist based out of Waukegan, IL for the last several years & has been part of the Chicago "Low-Brow" scene for almost a decade. From pinstriping to toys, dioramas to low-brow paintings. If it's dark satire bathed in skittles you want, you got it! Coming off of a succesful show last summer, "Cheap Trinkets" with Aaron Adams and Beau Monde, Anthony is preparing for another show in Winter '09. This piece is from that upcoming show, "Death Ride A Pale Monkey". His work takes on a dark cartoon landscape of sock monkeys, teddy bears, drugs, murder, more drugs & rainbows. To see more of Anthonys work & regular show updates, visit him on Facebook, search Tony Bohn, or e-mail him at tbohn77@uscellular.blackberry.com. Keep checking www.beaumonde07.com for more updates!

10 Deep Part 2

If you guys saw the first photoshoot we did, then you noticed the Fall shipment of 10 Deep. Just recently we got the second shipment of their Fall collection. Their outerwear is honestly killing the game right now. Very clean and perfect to keep the wind and cold weather getting you sick. Well, we can't promise that but they are fresh, there's no doubt about that. We had Mr. Kevin "Cassanova" Womack model off the clothes this time. Check them out and let the slide show do the work.




Side Note : The grey vest in the collection is also reversible. The other side is all black. Hit us up for any questions or swing by the shop and see the greatness yourself. Also, Cass is an aspiring emcee with lots of talent. Check the resume of this young lad.


Many words can be used to describe, Smoke & Cass, Chicago’s very own rap duo. With a sound like no other. Their music transcends the expectations of any audience. Humble, confident, unique, and innovative are just a few words that can be used to help summarize what they embody. Their new mixed project titled "The Massacre" hosted by Dj Ill Will and Jay "Mr. Flyy City" Torres, and mixed by Dj Dread drops soon. They're "Goin In" on any and everything, this one isn't for the weak at heart.

Shocking The World

You can tell that by my usage of the word "shock" in the title you can expect G-Shocks in this post. Yep, good job guys. We got in a slew of watches for the left or right side of your wrist in varying colors. From the new L-R-G watch to the Surfrider Foundation collaboration, we have various ones to choose from. See for yourself. And just to let you know, these don't tend to last long on the shelves so come by as soon as you can before someone else beats you to the punch.

Steady Mobbin'

Just for the ladies this time, we got in the new Fall shipment of Married to the Mob. Once again, instead of posting the shirts by themselves, we decided to have the lovely Janessa model off the gear. As always, the tee's come correct with bold statements and colors so if you're feeling like you have a lot to say but want to put it on your shirt, these are perfect for you.





Want to see more of Janessa? You can check out more of her modeling photos over at www.modelmayhem.com/366766.

Shoe Vice

Fresh from Reebok are two shoes inspired by the TV show "Miami Vice". If you're not old enough to remember, it's ok. The colorways pop out in the right way and even bare a custom insole showcasing the Miami Vice characters. Not a fan of the show? Then you'll be a fan of the shoes atleast.

Palladium Boots

Thanks to Dave Jeff of Phli, we are proud to present to you guys a new brand of boots that are perfect for the Fall season. Palladium is the name and be sure to keep your eyes locked on these guys. We currently have 4 colorways of their "Baggy" silhouette, and 2 of these pairs are in premium leather. They are light weight, ultra comfortable, durable and they won't put a dent in your wallets. Not familiar with Palladium? Here's a little history on their brand via their website. Check the pics after to see what we're talking about.

Palladium was founded in 1920 to make tires for the fledgling aviation industry. Tires were made by layering canvas bands underneath vulcanized rubber. Palladium’s expertise was so advanced that soon the majority of Europe’s aircraft were using Palladium tires.

After World War II, with aircraft manufacturing screeching to a halt, the demand for tires decreased dramatically. Palladium decided to open a plant in Pont De Cheruy, France, to start producing footwear that was as hard wearing as their tires. In 1947 the legendary Pampa boot was born, and the functionality, comfort and durability were so outstanding that the French Foreign Legion adopted it for their use. The Foreign Legion put the boot to the test in the harsh desert conditions of North Africa, and throughout the rugged terrain of the Atlas Mountains.

Today, the original design, classic lines and time tested utility are as relevant as they have ever been. Combining over 60 years of authenticity with modern manufacturing, premium materials and cutting edge styling, Palladium boots are ready to help you explore your street, your city, or the world.
