Cerita - Ada apa dengan BUNDLE?

Apa itu Pakaian Bundle...???

Pakaian bundle ni memang dah lama ada dekat malaysia ni. kalau dari zaman bozzo sekolah dulu memang orang dah sibuk-sibuk nak mencari bundle terutamanya budak-budak yang gilakan barang branded. Berebut-rebut pergi kedai bundle kalau stok baru masuk... Pengalaman bozzo slalunya akan perati dulu baju2 yang gantung kat luar kedai. Kalau ada yang keromot tu maknanya baru pecah le tu so boleh serbu. Standard sejam dua selam satu kedai tu kejap le tu. 

Tapi apa sebenarnya pakaian bundle ni?

Pakaian bundle ni sebenarnya pakaian yang terpakai yang diimport dari luar negara seperti US, Jepun, UK, korea dan negara-negara eropah lain. Pakaian-pakaian ini akan dikumpulkan dan dibungkus dalam guni. Inilah yang dipanggil BUNDLE. Guni-guni bundle ini kemudian akan dijual kepada pembekal secara pukal. Selain daripada pakaian terpakai, ada juga pakaian baru. Kita boleh jumpa pakaian tu siap dengan tagging dia lagi. Kemungkinan besar pakaian ini dibeli dan tidak dipakai langsung atau pakaian ini adalah pakaian reject/ stok lama dari kedai. Tapi janganlah terlalu berharap seluar baju gini pasal memanglah sangat jarang dijumpai. Jangan mimpilah pulak nak jumpa Levis 501 Made in USA saiz 42 srink to fit dengan tag. 

Jenis pakaian bundle...???

Jenis pakaian yang ada dalam bundle macam-macam dari kemeja & t-shirt sampailah ke seluar dan macam2 lagi. Memang 1001 macam jenis pakaian. Tapi selain pakaian biasa ada juga bundle kasut, selimut, toto, langsir dan macam-macam lagi lah. Selagi benda tu boleh digunakan semula, walaupun kengkadang ada juga yang koyak rabak, memang akan dijual sebagai bundle.

Ape yang menariknya pakaian second hand ni...??

Kepada mereka yang tak pernah atau tak minat pakai bundle ni mesti pelik kenapa ada orang suka dan sanggup pakai pakaian terpakai. Tak kurang pula yang geli kerana menganggap pakaian ni bekas orang lain dan kotor. Ini terpulanglah kepada citarasa dan minat masing-masing. Tapi apa yang menariknya pakaian bundle ni adalah pakaian yang berkualiti tinggi terutama pakaian yang diimport dari US. Kualiti kain dan printing memang bagus. Bagi peminat jenama, pakaian bundle ni memang jadi pilihan kerana mereka boleh dapat brand kegemaran masing-masing dengan harga yang murah. Jenama-jenama besar seperti Levi's, Dockers, Polo, Harley Davidson memang menjadi pilihan peminat-peminat bundle ni.

Tak kotor/ berpenyakit ke pakaian bundle ni...??

Semua pakaian yang dibungkus dalam setiap bundle yang diimport telah diletakkan bahan kimia tertentu untuk membunuh kuman dan mengelakkan penyakit. Sebab itu kalau kita pergi ke kedai-kedai bundle yang pakaiannya belum dibasuh, kita boleh cium satu bau yang sama je. Ini la bau yang org panggil "bau bundle"... bau bahan kimia yang digunakan tu. Bozzo ada seorang sahabat yang memang kaki bundle ni pernah berkata "zo, bundle ni lebih teruk dari dadah makan duitnya dan lagi bahaya sebab sekali terjebak memang tiada jalan keluar".

Cerita - Ben Davis

Ben Davis is a United States-based work clothing line. It was founded by its namesake in 1935.

Company founder Benjamin Franklin Davis' grandfather Jacob Davis was instrumental in the creation of the original Levi's jeans. Ben Davis started in San Francisco, California. The clothing was mostly worn by construction workers because of its sturdy, rugged, high quality. It later was worn by Chicano, caucausian, and filipino youth. The original store was on Valencia street in the Mission district. San Franciscan locals are very proud of Ben Davis and wear it as a badge of honor representing the city. Later the clothing would catch on in Los Angeles and other parts of the U.S.

Ben Davis is popular in some music-related subcultures, especially West Coast rappers. The clothing is popular among Chicano and "cholo" youth culture. Ben Davis shirts have been shown in the 1992 "Let Me Ride" video from the artist Dr. Dre, the Beastie Boys have mentioned the brand in their music, and Eazy-E used a Ben Davis shirt in his music video for the song Real Muthaphuckkin G's. Chicano rapper Lil Rob has mentioned Ben Davis clothing in his songs. Also the Mexican rapper Mr. Yosie 'lokote' made an entire song about the Ben Davis clothing, called "Ben Davis mi marca" ('Ben Davis my brand'). Ice Cube mentions Ben Davis in his song "Ghetto Vet" on his War and Peace Vol. 1 album and also wears a Ben Davis shirt on his "Friday" music video. On Bangin' on Wax, the 1993 album by Bloods & Crips, Crip rapper AWOL refers to Ben Davis clothing on the song "K's Up". Kid Rock mentions Ben Davis slacks in his song "American Bad Ass" from the 2000 album The History of Rock. Its major competitor is Dickies.

Ben Davis is run by his son Frank, who was interviewed in a 1995 Grand Royal magazine article.

At one time the tags on Ben Davis items read "Union Made Plenty Tough" although this has now been changed to "USA Made Plenty Tough" as they had a dispute with the union workers. More recently, production of some products has been moved to the Dominican Republic. Accordingly, the logo now states "Est. 1935 Plenty Tough".

Limited Edition Takashi Murakami x Casio G-SHOCK Frogman Watch - GWF1000TM

Minggu lepas ada bebarapa member bozzo yang bertanyakan pasal jam keramat ni. Nama dia Takashi Murakami X Casio G-Shock GWF1000TM. Jam ini memang limited edition dan harga pun memang boleh beli sebijik Vios. Silalah layan baca dan layan mata. Kalau tak cukup besar boleh klik kat gambar tu bagi lagi besar. Dianggarkan harga sekarang adalah UDS22,999.00. Di Malaysia pada 2 tahun lepas bozzo ada terbaca yang sebijik telah terjual kepada kolekter dari Johor dengan harga RM80,000.00. Fuhhh....

Why is this frogman so expensive?

This piece was designed by a famous artist Takashi Murakami. He make artworks that people have paid millions for so the price reflects that. It is desired by some art collectors who will only display it in its beautiful display case/box as a work of art by Murakami (this is reflected by the fact Casio never made any spare resin for it). Very few G-Shock collectors can compete with those crazy art lovers...So it is out of reach for most of us who can only dream of it. It was limited to 300 pieces. It debuted at $3000 in 2010 so now 7 years later maybe someone can pay that extreme price.

These came out in Japan in the summer of 2010 and was exclusively sold trough the Takashi Love store. 198 of them numbered 2-200 (01 was kept by Takashi himself) was sold in Japan for $3600. Thanks to the effort of Tyko Moon, 98 of them was released in the fall of 2010 in the US numbered 201-298. And they retailed for $3800-$4000 in places like Tourneau, Flight Club and some Macy stores.

2 of them where apparently sold in a watch store in Versailles France (presumably 299-300). Takashi was supposed to have exhibited the watch at an art exhibition in Versailles Palace. But he was prevented because the art exhibitor thought his watch would steal to much attention from another watch that was also at the exhibition (The Takashi G sure has super power appeal to cause such action be taken against it he he) 

The original plan was to exhibit one and sell one at an exclusive watch store (can not remember its name tough), so if people at the exhibition asked where to buy one he could refer to that store. But since he was not allowed to exhibit it, both watches ended up at that store.

This watch was not aimed at the G community, it is more of an art piece sold as an artwork intended mostly for display purposes in a nice display case or cup board. So mostly for Takashi Murakami collectors or cup board collectors ( a very common collector type in Japan). Some of Murakamis art work have been sold for millions. So perhaps this watch is a good investment for the future, who knows...

No siri terpaksa digelapkan atas sebab-sebab keselematan. Simpan katak jelly merah ni dah sama cam simpan Porshe 914. Kena sorok.

Anyway they seem to still go for around $22,999.99, last week one sold at that price on eBay.
