REBEL8 News

I just got back from a long weekend in Bass Lake, CA and just now going through the stack of shit piled on my desk; countless papers, unreadable post-it notes, production samples, etc. And that's nothing compared to my email inbox steady on swole.

But check it, as I was sitting shotgun going south down the 5 to LA, traffic was hella light and it was easy to maintain a safe 75 no problem. Northbound however was fucked. It was bumper-to-bumper with sections in a complete standstill. It really tripped me out and got me thinking about my path in life, namely all my time working on REBEL8.

Even though you may be going in the right direction, it might not feel like you are. Because some times shit is just slow as fuck and it's nearly impossible to recognize that you are actually heading there. But you are.

On some stoner shit, I was staring at this tree that was growing through the deck on the house we were staying at. The deck was literally built around this big ass tree. I thought about this tree's life. When it first popped from the ground, there wasn't this deck, there probably wasn't even this house. But over the decades, patiently, it kept on pushing up to the sky. Finally growing so massive in size that the blueprint of house and deck had to acknowledge it's presence.

If you feel stuck or aimless at times, don't even trip. Stop judging yourself. Take a deep breath knowing you aren't alone. And smile motherfucker. Shit can always get worse.

Anyways here are two photos from the weekend:

This was the biggest fish I caught. Largemouth bass on a rainbow lure. I didn't feel too bad. The locals told me the California heatwaves made the big fish go down 20' below and I was just trolling the surface. But I think they were just being nice.

Thank God we had more food to eat.

Last week's drop I think was one of our strongest ever. If you haven't bought anything yet, stop reading, go shop. This shit is fire.

Please click here and check out the promo video. It's with one my all-time favorite bands ever, The Misfits. We'll release the lookbook soon. I know we've been doing a lot of band collabs in recent months and we got a couple more coming, but after that I'm gonna put that shit on ice for a minute.

Huge thanks to all of you that wrote back on my last newsletter. It really means the world to me. I read and wrote back to each and everyone of you personally. You guys rule. Much love.

I'll hit you up again soon. You can always reply to my emails. I'll always be here for you.
