DVS/DIAMOND
DVS and Diamond Supply Co. have developed a long-standing relationship over the years and it continues to show in the product collaboration projects between the two brands. Original Intent designers teamed up with Diamond to produce a limited collection of Diamond V.V.S. shoes, jackets, tees, and hats. These items are dropping on Saturday, February 7th at the Diamond Store on Fairfax in Los Angeles. The collection will be available worldwide next week.
INDUSTRIAL BI-PRODUCTS
Daewon came up on the wreckage of an old AT-AT Walker that had been disabled in battle. To his benefit it was lying down in just the right position to allow him this here 5-0. And by the way you can go out and get these awesome shoes that come with a miniature (limited edition collectable handboard) version of Dae's donut deck! While supplies last... SWEET!

FREEDOM PARTY
Not since Pierre Andre’ started Etnies has there been reason for the French to celebrate a bona fide nationalist shoe endeavor. Twenty some odd years later, here’s your chance France. Tomorrow night, Official Skateshop in Toulouse is hosting a party to celebrate the release of the shoe designed by the pride of their hometown, Lucas Puig. No question it’s going to be a rager, so make it if you can. Check the Official website for details.

OLD SCHOOL
This shirt was in line for a run at retail fame about three years ago, but ultimately suffered a premature fate at the hands of our legal department. Fortunately for us, and those of you who shared in that heartbreak, the pro-lifers at Utility Board Supply recently decided to adopt. Now available in limited quantities through their website, pick one up before they end up in someone else’s happy household.

9 Feb 2009
The Rosetta Stone language software is so hot right now, but Jesus and JB didn’t have this luxury when they landed stateside way back when. Instead, they learned the nuances of American English the same way most rappers learn their lifestyle- Scarface and a bong. They’ve both come a long way since then, but as evidenced in our latest video/ podcast, ‘Tony Montana’ is still their preferred brand of English.

We doin' it big...
Torey, Manderson, Marty, Dubbs and Colin Kennedy show off their sh*t on FUEL TV's "The Daily Habit" tomorrow night at 6 pm Pacific, 9 pm Eastern. Be sure to tune in! Colin will be discussing the "Tangram" Matix commercials, the making of, and the boys will be filling in answering all of Pat Parnell's quirky questions. And we will finally justify how to pronounce our name correctly - MAH-TIX! You can't call us "MATRIX" or "MAE-DICKS" no more!

MO KNOWS
Mo definitely knows S.K.A.T.E. Cheeks gave it all he had, but the kid is hard to get. Can’t wait to see what route Carroll takes in the next round. WATCH HERE
CLE' DAY
The new Cliche’ video arrived at the office this week. Apparently the production run is very small, so hopefully you can get your hands on one. JB and Lucas share the opening part with tunes provided by Jesus and Lebron. Having gone straight from Fully Flared into this project, you wouldn’t really expect them to have full parts, but they definitely came through. Catch it if you can.
