Twin Tower Cameos from Dan Meth on Vimeo.

"From 1969 to 2001, the Twin Towers made countless cameos in Hollywood films. Sometimes featured prominently in the foreground, sometimes lurking in the distance. This montage celebrates the towers' all-too-short film career with songs that capture the passing decades. Man, I miss them." by: Dan Meth

long live kess

photos:i.sierra two years ago today we lost our dear friend andy kessler, who many refer to as the "king of new york." he was one of the original zoo york crew from the early 70's who helped define the aesthetic and grit of early new york street graffiti. andy later went on to become the godfather of skateboarding of the big apple. always an advocate for the youth he successfully designed and built skate parks for the next generations. throughout the 5 boroughs socialites to the skaters all give praise to the kess.

Great Hair, Respectadmin
thank you Isaac

We received a kind letter from one of our loyal customers Isaac. He reached out to us to share his recent experience with our pomades. He posted this thread yesterday on Badger & Blade: "I just wanted to start off by saying im in NO WAY affiliated with Grant's. I just wanted to take a pictures of all my current pomades. There are water based and petroleum based pomades. As you can see in the pic, I have taken an extreme liking to the Grant's and bought about eight tins of the stuff.... The Grants is almost waxlike in its setup for combing. it doesnt "wet" the hair or curl it, and actually sets up nicely.... I can recomb my hair at any time and have the product set it self up again. It leaves the hair looking wet/slick, but not as much as petroleum pomades. Now it does come in two varieties, putty and regular. The putty is a limited edition extra hold for the summer heat. I dont find it to be that binding, and actually have 6 tins of this compared to the two of the regular. Scent is a nice sweet almond."

Thank you Isaac! Grant's Golden Brand Pomade the premiere water-based pomade made in the good old USA

Hope you all had a good holiday weekend. Ours was simple, but at least included watching Serpico again, one of our favorite Pacino movies. This NY Times article is a good read for any Serpico fans. And if you haven't seen it, what are you doing? Turn off the damn reality crap on T.V., and watch something actually worth your time!
