Richard Jefferson no show for wedding???

Well we have become TMZ now, not really but I thought this was funny when I seen it. Apparently Richard Jefferson decided to call off his wedding with his fiance Kesha Ni'Cole Nichols days before the wedding. The only problem is the guest's were not informed and showed up to the wedding wondering where the bride and groom were. Come to find out that the wedding had been canceled leaving them with no wedding nor explanation. Although he did give his friend his Amex Black credit card and told him to take out the guests and show them a good time without him there. Take a look at the two together below.

Vans x Acapulco Gold Vans Moda Hi Sneakers

Vans combining with Acapulco Gold will be releasing these Moda Hi's next March. No specific time given or price. As soon as I spotted these it was an instant post and purchase. The color way is perfect, with a nice green and grey combination. Although I am a fan of the classic low top, the Hi design will work just fine for me, take a look below.

Here we present an exclusive look into the second part of Vans’ upcoming East vs. West Pack, which will feature design efforts from Los Angeles-based Crooks & Castles and New York natives Acapulco Gold. This latest installment finds AG working on a pair of the newly developed Moda Hi model, fusing the classic SK8-Hi and more fashion-forward Mountain Edition Hi. The kicks boast a mix of suede and leather uppers on a clean white/green colorway, with various Acapulco Gold details throughout. A release is scheduled for March 2010.

Summer 09 cont...

Ok, so you have seen the tees but we also did our custom cut and sew button ups for the summer as well. Both are short sleeve, one blue and one red. As you can see in the pics we did our custom two color buttons... green for the red button up and red for the blue button up. The blue button up is also made out of seersucker which gives the fabric a nice soft texture. You can find our tees and button ups in Heart and Sole, Next (Beachwood) and our tees in Martini Skate and Snow. Web store being updated soon. Kingsransomclothing.com

Back from the dead!!!

Ok so we have been slacking lately but we're back from the dead and plan on keeping a consistent blog. So I guess we will start with our Summer line. These are the two tees we did for Summer 09... the lime green is our logo and filled inside are a bunch of crazy little characters, almost similar to something KAWS would do or even Mishka, and no we're not comparing ourselves to these companies although it would be nice since they have done very well. The black tee is the playing card tee and what makes this tee stand out is the use of color and detail put into the king's outfit. Across the back is the Kings Ransom script on both. A special shout out goes out to Jeremy Backo who did the artwork for these tees and will be doing many more we hope. Thanks Jeremy.....

KR artist of the week!! Chester French

This week we shine the spotlight on Star Trak's Chester French. Consisting of Maxwell Drummey and D.A. Wallach, these 2 decided to name the band after sculptor Daniel Chester French (designer of the Lincoln Memorial). Me being the big fan of Pharrell and Star Trak that I am, I discovered them by just hitting up the Star Trak website and checking up on em to see what's new. After reading plenty of interviews with Pharrell and hearing about Chester French frequently, I soon became interested in hearing them. After hearing "She Loves Everybody" I can't wait for the album to drop.

If you're in Cleveland, be sure to hit up the Grog Shop on Coventry May 12 for the Chester French + Lady Sovereign show.

Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Males Visibly Uncomfortable in the Presence of a Gay Foreigner in a Mesh T-Shirt

Sacha Baron Cohen is a genius. July 10th can't come soon enough!

KR artist of the week! - The Bird & The Bee

This week, our artist of the week is The Bird & The Bee. We have definitely caught on to everything they have out. Their music is... well I'd call it addicting. Every time I listen to their album I end up listening to it a second time. Inara George, the lead singer, has such a distinctive voice which at times seems monotone, but it goes perfect with their sound. I also seen she is the daughter of Lowell George, who is the founder of a rock band my dad used listen to back in his hey-day called Little Feat... which is a good little tidbit. The song/video I chose to throw up for them is "Love Letter to Japan" off their Ray Guns Are Not Just the Future LP. The album is a definite must hear!


I decided to put up a second video by them, "Polite Dance Song", which is the first song I ever heard by them. I heard it on their Please Clap Your Hands EP awhile ago and it still remains a favorite of mine. Plus, to connect with my last post... the video was directed by Eric Wareheim who is 1/2 of Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! If familiar with the show, look for Palmer Scott aka Mr. This Is What I Do I Sit On You.
