Help Haiti


Really, there's nothing more important in the world right now. I just wanted to let visitors and shoppers know that 100% of proceeds from the bombayhustle store for the next few weeks will be donated to help Haiti relief efforts.

For other ways to help and to learn more, please see Support Disaster Relief.

If you haven't donated time, money or a prayer to Haiti, I'd request that you do so now.

Thanks
Tarun

Create quality products. Make them mean something. Learn new crafts. Respect old methods. Take your time. Maintain perspective.

A Day with 3sixteen


3sixteen is a brand that started in the realm of "streetwear", and has now grown to a full fledged clothing company. The visuals below are a Discovery-channel-esq view of a seemingly typical day of the company, overlaid with founders' Andrew and Johan talking about the core brand values. With a keen eye for quality and craftsmanship, 3sixteen invites us behind the scenes of their New York studio / store space that they share with retailer Self Edge. Shot by Sarah Krusen, this video is top-notch for many reasons (one being that its part of a series), so if you're reading this then you should probably press play already and enjoy.
