white walls project

Havoc on the Yard…

The boys over at Unit44 have been creating havoc on the yard again this week…..but it’s good havoc!

Our good friends & neighbours have just completed piece number 7 in the White Walls Project. Lucky number 7 was Handiedan from Holland.

The weather was good, the location was perfect and as you can see the finished piece looks amazing! It’s a combination of paste-up, paint and chalks.

David aka Billy the resident photographer with Unit44 also shoots for us, and we were trying to get some pick some dope locations for a sneaker shoot in, and around Handiedan as the piece went up. At one point there was a pair of ASICS Gel Lyte III’s, 3 x Vans Era 59 and Nike Zoom Match Classics all perched in various spots while we waited for the sun to appear….it was a ridiculous sight! :-)

Jon Burgerman hits Hoults Yard

Jon Burgerman has been up in Newcastle this weekend to paint a massive 30 metre stretch of Hoults Yard, right out side our store (The Sneaker Lounge)

After 13 hours forming 4 of his favourite characters into this large scale and vibrant piece mother nature decided to strike before the paint had set…..Nightmare!

The result looks like the characters have all being crying and their mascara has run!

Jon will be back up this week to finish and repair this fantastic street piece.
