Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon is no stranger to streetwear. After several successful collaboration with the likes of Supreme, Diamond Supply Co., and Alife, Rae’ is set to release his newest collab effort, this time deciding to link up with Akomplice and street-wear retailer, Tradition.

Raekwon has been staying just 20 minutes from Tradition while putting the final touches on his long anticipated “Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2.”

This tee will release in 3 colors this Saturday, November 22nd at 1:00 p.m. exclusively at Tradition. A very limited Wu-Tang yellow colorway (Only 24 pieces) will release later on that night at the Akomplice season 9 release party (at an as yet undisclosed location). Raekwon is set to make a guest appearance that night as well, and will perform a short set of classics for those in attendance. Good luck finding it.

Win a copy of Shaun White Snowboarding - Target Limited Edition!


Target just released their own limited-edition Shaun White Snowboarding video game and Frank151 is happy to announce that we will be giving away free copies to 10 faithful Frank fans!

ps-cover-artweb.jpg

Shaun White Snowboarding - Target Exclusive Edition was designed by Ubisoft and is available on Xbox 360, Playstation3 and Wii. The special edition features exclusive extended content that consumers will not find in the original version, including the Target Mountain, exclusive jibs, added scenes, and more characters. Additionally, players can cozy-up in the virtual version of the Target Chalet, the only indoor environment available in the game. The Target Chalet is a real-life mountainside home where Shaun and fellow Target athletes hang out with friends and family during the annual Winter X Games in Aspen, Colorado.

One test drive of the game and we were hooked. The navigation system and movement capabilities are superior in the world of action-sports video games. This game will most certainly do for snowboarding what the Madden series did for football and what Tony Hawk did for skateboarding.

So, to cop a copy, answer the following question:

Die-hards know that, in addition to being a professional snowboarder, Shaun White is also an accomplished skateboarder. What signature skate trick did he invent?

Email your answers to FDL(at)frank151.com and include your name, contact info, and platform of choice (Xbox 360, PS3 or Wii). The first ten correct responses win a copy of Shaun White Snowboarding - Target Exclusive Edition!

Good luck! Read the rest of this entry »

Unbranded McDonald’s

News from Tokyo of a couple no-logo McDonald’s opening up early this month. No weird clowns, no golden arches, no…anything really, just a black storefront with red trim and a big burger in the window. Taking a cue from In-n-Out, the menu’s exactly two items long: quarter-pounder and double quarter-pounder. Further proof that red, black, and white is the king of all corporate color schemes, from Coke to the Nazis. Check the new website here.
