RDQLUS Dropshots; 120311

One of my favorite things to do is take to the neighborhood on a Sunday afternoon, grab a comfy seat, fire up my alpha waves with music, my cells with caffeine and my iPad with the interweb connectivity. The weather was hinting at impending Spring and I alighted from my typical Sunday wanderings kick up my freshly adorned feet and see what the rest of the world outside the [402] was up to. As it turns out, the answer is always, "much!" [read on!]

RDQLUS Dropshots; 120302

Cosmo from 1987? Oh, trust… I get all the quizzes right! This is an out-take sneak-peek of the RGC Spring 2012 look-book that will be dropping hopefully next week. The talent behind the lens and beautifully muted style is Instagram sensation and an innovator in the growing category of "iPhone'ography," Jess Ewald. I can't divulge her shooting secrets, but I can tell you that there is no more gifted eye that hers. I'm glad she's down with me. [read on!]

NIKEiD x RDQLUS?

Oh, this should be good!

RDQLUS x NIKEiD - a Special-Edition from Stevie G / RDQLUS on Vimeo.

I've never hidden the fact the design, life & style are very important fuel for each other in the RDQLUS camp. Apparently, a few people are paying attention when I say stuff like that? Oops. I gotta watch what I say.

Representatives of Nike's "NIKEiD" program contacted me to try my hand at an iD shoe of my choosing. Did someone say sneakers?! You don't have to ask me twice. But true to form for RDQLUS CREATIVE, I want to have a little bit of story and pedigree instilled into the sneaker I ultimately do the color design for. I'd be lying if I said I didn't have anything prepared. You kidding me? I've waited for something like this since drawing pictured of Air Max running shoes in the 80s. (Hey, Mama… do you still have those?)

I just found out the news over the weekend and had to sit on it for a bit, but I'll be posting pics and a vid explaining what's going down. Many thanks to the good people rep'ing the NIKEiD camp for this opportunity.
