Saturdays NYC:: Bruce Weber

Just recently, I was gifted a new magazine called Saturdays NYC. I didn't put the magazine down, which is thick and heavy much like a coffee table book, for a couple of days and was very delighted and inspired by it's content. Saturdays NYC is a brand that currently has it's flagship retail location in SoHo, New York, with another in West Village, and two in Japan. I often feel so far removed from what is going on in NYC that it is refreshing to be reminded that yes, there is in fact a group of like minded individuals who enjoy surfing and its' culture there. While immersed in the Saturdays' glossy pages, I came across a spread on fashion photographer Bruce Weber. I was awe struck not only by his amazing ability to photograph men (just google him), but his knack to capture that special something about surfers that we all love- their blonde hair, tan faces, broad shoulders, and their ability to have fun all of the time. Just look at this picture of Laird Hamilton! AYE. Issue #2 has photographs of Christian Fletcher, Laird Hamilton (with Brooke Shields), Matt Archbold, Buzzy Kerbox, and more. Weber bridged the gap between surfers and the fashion industry and I can't thank him enough. Make sure to check out Saturdays NYC.

Kelly Slater X Ben Watts X Channel Island Surfboards

Drooling over these shred sticks...

"Kicking off New York fashion week, photographer Ben Watts has splashed the entire Milk gallery with his signature acid-pop colours and photography, amongst which are eight shortboards to be auctioned off in aid of eight different charities.
Karlie KlossAllesandra AmbrósioDree Hemingway,Ashley SmithBehati PrinslooEmanuela de PaulaCintia Dicker and Candice Swanepoel all agreed to appear on the boards that were designed by world champion surfboarder Kelly Slater.
Crowned world ASP surf champion eleven times, Kelly Slater added his magic touch to the design process to create the ‘Whip’, the Bugatti Veyron of sharp shortboards. Hanging on a wall or carving up fast waves, these beauties will never go into mass production and will be unique to each lucky private bidder.
Grinding up a killer wave with Allesandra Ambrósio on your side, what can be hotter than that?"
BOOM!
