Jim Lynch over at Extreme Tech wrote a funny post we just couldn’t ignore. Almost the entire column goes over how much Steve Jobs is in dire need of a wardrobe intervention. All of his clothes are either too short or too baggy due to his recent loss of weight. C’mon Steve, you’ve got cash, you can afford leather. Anything but those horrid workout clothes you’re always sporting. What would you want to see Steve in? Pierre Cardin? BOSS?
After winning 8 gold medals, the amazing Michael Phelps has been compared to just about every oceanic life form existing on our planet. Yes, Michael Phelps has even been compared to a sea urchin. Of course this has led to an epidemic of Phelps apparel that everyone and their mother will be adorning for the next 30 years or more.
Fashionablygeek.com has compiled an assortment of Phelps t-shirts and gear (including the $500 swimsuit). So, show your support and grab the one that suits your style best. Then when Phelps takes gold at London in 2012, you can claim you’ve been a fan long before Beijing.

We came across an interesting display of posters and t-shirts from artist and designer Ray Lam at Iteetoo.com. Ray is inspired by electronic devices and creation and has started reflecting it in some fascinating art he’s designed himself. He has even taken bits and pieces from his abstract art posters and made some clever t-shirt decals for geeks and hackers alike. We are very impressed with his quirky approach towards the fusion of sci-fi and zen.
If you live in NYC and are into the whole art/graffiti/urban-look/Japan thing, you might wanna stop by Premium Laces in Soho. Why? The store is selling a limited edition set of Nike apparel done in collaboration with Nitro Microphone Underground and Nitraid. You’ll find Air Force 1s, a New Era 59Fifty hat and a Nitraid t-shirt, all with a pixel camouflage design.
If you’re busy rocking that Pixel Posey necklace, you should pick some of this stuff up to complete the look.
In light of the recent release of the latest Indiana Jones flick, Toys R Us is selling an Indiana hat and whip to complete your costume of the most badass archaeologist to ever scour tombs. If worse comes to worst, you could always use the hat and whip to compete in the Iditarod with your team of burly huskies, once you’ve bought yourself a sled. Now, mush!
Are you feeling vintage? Heading to a LAN party to play Doom II and break out 3.5-inch classics like Commander Keen and Xargon? In that case, it’s essential you remain as dapper as possible for the occasion.
