Docker’s teamed up with bike maker Johnny Loco to create a limited edition of 150 bicycles (insert tired hipster joke here). Here’s a short making of video. It’s actually an interesting watch.

We’ve been overdosing on sweatshirts lately, but no one’s complained yet (cue complaints coming in 3…2…1…) so we’re gonna keep going with them. Anyhoo, who changes their style abruptly season on season? If you were wearing a sweatshirt last season you’d still be into one this season because humans don’t really function like that. Unless you’re a bit more fashion, in which case you’d subtly change your reference point from Carhartt to Cucinelli. (Superdenim)

We’re packed to the gills with timeless classics today, this time it’s something from Soulland. As we’ve often stated, we like the staples and all, but anyone saying that you should throw out anything in a pattern that isn’t stripes or checks should throw themselves from a bridge. No hyperbole. (C-Store)

Here’s a timeless classic for all you staple lovers. This Cosmic Wonder Light Source shirt is sure to be a bright spot (geddit?) in anyone’s wardrobe. And, let’s face it, who could say no to a contrast collar striped shirt with a massive circle in the middle of it? Don’t answer that – no one can. (B Store)

Curated’s been turning us onto things – here’s another one:

“Pedro Tyler’s work was the highlight of Galeria Isabel Aninat at the Armory Show. Intricate portrait and sculpture made of rulers and other everyday objects.”

As you might expect, you can see more over at Curated.

Here’s a look at some wrapping paper for the ingenious/lazy. Whichever way you look at it, it’s a nice idea. While this is great it’s a little advanced for the immature folks here. We’d be far too tempted to make up our own messages like those folks who send messages from random newspaper cutouts (do people still do that or has the internet killed off another vital skill?).
