Our Permanent Autumn

The Baroke team had a meeting tonight. On the walk into the meeting I saw my breath. It's flipping June 7th, so that's emotionally unacceptable. What can I do though, right?

Well it's not all bad. The ideas are brewing here at Baroke and good things will follow in the form of some of the most original design ideas I've ever heard. We shall keep you posted.

I for one started the day with a bacon infused Scotch Manhattan from Bristol and am ending it with Bob Dylan and Don Julio. They make a good team, I find. This is Dylan drunk and annoying with Lennon:


While perusing Gaper's Block, I found a story about a guy from Valparaiso that repossesses planes, helicopters and yachts. He's got some pretty crazy stories and nets between $600,000 and $900,000 per job.

Today will be the first day I get to sleep before 4am in a little under a week. Looking towards tomorrow, St. Vincent performs at Millennium Park's Pritzker Pavilion, with local Mexican-American 3 piece Alla opening. That shindig starts at 6:30. I'll be at work, so if you go, take pictures or video and we'll post them here at Baroke.

THE END OF THE WORLD?

Alright....i have some serious business to discuss with you all. I was looking through a forum that i have not looked through for awhile and i came upon a thread. And the stuff that was discussed in this thread shocked my eyes. My jaw dropped and i seriously felt my heart break. Okay....i think i have enough courage to say it now...the thread was entitled "Jordan Retros Ending in 2008?" COULD IT BE TRUE!?!?!?!? After looking through the threads, its still a rumor...I HOPE....and nothing is really solid....from what i have gathered...i know that Jordan has signed an extension with the brand for another 22 years and there is talk about going up to Jordan 45 but yeah..thats totally other news...lets focus on the jordan retros from 1-23....Can you guys imagine? There are people saying this cant be true...the retros are Jordan's bread and butter while others are saying this could be true because Jordan retros hype might stop and wont be as popular anymore.....so i have a serious and urgent plea to those who have anymore information on this.

im going to leave with some pictures of Jordan wearing the OG's...lets have a moment of silence while we take a look at some of them...







if this is all true....sigh....im already crying.....

sincerely,
baroke randy

The Push is On!

after a long struggling few weeks the baroke summer line is still pushing through but WILL BE DELAYED! our apologies due to some financial issues.....we are still a really small company and when that is taken into account money is always an issue so i am here to tell you guys there is still hope for the summer line! again we apologize for the delay and hopefully it will be out in august! so thank you all for being patient. also! baroke has added a new member to the squad and will be unveiled soon.

in other news, recently 3sixteen collab'd with a Portland based record label called Hiphop Is Music and put out a mixed cd called "Blood, Sweat and Tears"



and they sent it out with one of their drops on digital gravel and of course it was really limited and was sold out real quick but lucky for all of us who miss'd out the guys over at 3sixteen has offered a link for us to download the entire album for free! so just click this link to start the download!
