This could be the start of the end of Magic, brands starting their own shows. The hype and the excitement of Magic always layed in Streetwear. The air was let out of the Ties in streetwear and SLATE with the launch of Christian Audigier – Ed Hardy – When I move you move Trade show. This show was the buzz of Vegas. I am not kidding people that where not even in town for the show were talking about it.  As I walked the streetwear part of Magic it seemed like there was something missing. Yes Yes streetwear still had its Ghetto Stars but there really was no life to it.(wow Rick Ross was there)- Big deal !!!

S.L.A.T.E. was just dead, I really feel people are done with the whole hip cool guy bullshit this come from these lines. But the Words on every buyers mouths was “Christian Audigier – Ed Hardy – When I move you move Trade show”  I do have to say my ears were open to this whole hype. To put out there: the show was amazing buyers were writing paper, people were having a great time, over it all they had what Magic was missing – The Buyers with money!!! (Oh yea and every Star was there!!)  This show made this trip to Vegas worth it all. I will always love streetwear but I also think you kids need to step it up. Christian Audigier – Ed Hardy The new kings of the Fashion World.

Here are some clips from the lines and the show.

Just got a little sneek peek at the new 9 Grand goods and I thought I would pass them alog to you kids. But what can I say about it all – Once again they have knock my socks off. By far this is one of my top picks for this years Magic. If you have a shop and don’t have this brand in stock you better get on it. I don’t how these heads keep coming up with this crazy good gear. Champs thats all I have to say about them Champs!!!

Now I know they may not be New Era but the designs rock anything out there. LIve It Sucka

This for real will be short and sweet!!

I have never been to a more Half ass tradeshow in my life. First off Project is known for the bag that they pass out this shows bag was cheaply made, it was a canvas tote bag. Second – when I walked the show I felt like it was all the same brand. Wait now that’s not all true there was one Brand that stood out First Brand clothing visit their site. Back to it – the show was boring and a waste of time, I really hope they step it up for Las Vegas if not I say this show is dead in the water. No Good brands and no buyers. Done Deal.
