Moon Shoes!!!

It don't get any more early 90's than this! Me and my brother C.J. used to have a pair of these and when we got them we thought they were the coolest things ever. Little did we know that they were going to break within a week or two! A bunch of the black rubberbands just started snapping on us, haha.

And for some reason just seeing this reminded me of the Pogo Ball.

Roverfest tonight!

If you are lucky enough to be near a city that syndicates Rover's Morning Glory talk show, then you know that Roverfest is tonight at Voinovich Park, behind the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame.
I've been a big Rover fan for the past few years and all I ever hear about is how amazing the first Roverfest was last year on W.6th. Well this year KR and a couple buds will be present!
Check out the line up he has for this year... and tickets were only $6.00!
See you down there!

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.

-Diamond Dave
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.....
