LEVI’S Vintage Gift Ideas…..

Vintage replicas from Levi’s San Francisco Archives.

Levi’s introduced Levi Vintage Clothing to keep the history of Levi’s denim alive: Since 1999, the famous historical originals from the Levi’s archives in San Francisco, dating back to 1880, are faithfully reincarnated in this limited edition range. The ring spun denim is still woven on 29″ wide vintage shuttle looms in Greensboro, North Carolina with whom Levi Strauss & Co have been working for 100 years.

TYPE 3 Apparel…….

TYPE 3 Apparel

“Type 3 Diabetes” is a term used to describe the loved ones of Diabetics who have become a willing part of their support system: everyone from parents, friends, siblings and spouses, to those who choose to make Diabetic Care their life’s work like Endocrinologists and Diabetic Nurse Educators. This is who TYPE 3 Apparel celebrates. These are our heroes. TYPE 3 Apparel, created by Gabriel Padilla (musician, graphic designer, father of a Diabetic daughter), is an urban clothing line that attempts to bring awareness to the Diabetes epidemic in the Unites States and honor to those who live with the illness… by diagnosis or by proxy. TYPE 3 Apparel is not just about fashion. We are about action. That is why TYPE 3 Apparel donates a portion of its proceeds to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund and The Diabetes Research Institute. When you purchase a piece of clothing from TYPE 3 Apparel, you are also helping us step closer to finding a cure for Diabetes.

In | ter | im – Art Of Re Use

A few months back we at @milliframe got an opportunity to meet the collective behind in⎮tər⎮im, A group of determined minds that is not only creating a movement but in the process are redefining an idea, THRIFTING. An art, yes I will repeat it, an ART that is often mistaken for scavenging old, discarded or “vintage” clothing usually reserved only for bottom feeders or the less fortunate is now being transformed every 6 months for a 2-Day event unlike any other.

The pieces in this collection were procured and delicately transported here across state lines from Toronto, Canada to present you with an experience that is truly authentic and unique in its design. They reflects the effort(s) that were invested in completing this venture and it is truly a masterpiece worth seeing in person. Besides the fact that it is a one day event, all the pieces in this collection are one-of-a-kinds and under $50. The theme ever so transparent, from the giant dreamcatcher in the pop-up shop’s storefront window to the throwing stick detailed with Navajo handwritings clandestinely set upon a stack of books atop the clothing fixture that showcases colorful native garbs among other trendy and fashionable item that correlate with the overall scheme of things.

At three items per consumer and everything under fifty bucks be prepared to be well taken care of and catered to as the in⎮tər⎮im staff are seasoned veterans at providing the public with an excellent medium to express one’s individuality through fashion. The new movement resembles a traveling circus bringing their fashion ideas, Creative themes and basically living on the road with their pop up shops planned across the map. We hear the next stop is L.A. if so, it will surely be another amazing event.

Special thanks to: Sean + Bernard + Othello + Courtney & in | ter | im staff for choosing NY as well as “BK Circus” for hosting this event.
