In today’s video spotlight, TruckerDeluxe’s resident video pundit and summer fashion connoisseur B-Dawg hollers at a fresh batch of JSLV tees, sweatshirts and hats, like possibly my favorite hat of all time, the San Francisco Giants inspired JSLV Signature Frisco New Era hat below.

Since its hot outside and it’s way more fun to just stay inside and think of cool shit to do on the internet, we’ve decided that every Friday we’re gonna make one of the dudes who works here put on a bunch of our clothes and then talk up methodology behind the selections, kind of like what we already do, only more official (sounding). We’re gonna call it Friday ‘Fit because alliteration always aids authors aiming at amazing additions amongst already awesome…yeah that joke went on like 2 words too long. Anyway! Today’s edition of Friday ‘Fit coincides with another semi-religious holiday here in Northern California, Lincecum Day, as any day that Giant’s pitcher Tim Lincecum takes the mound is known in SF Giants country. We decided, therefore, that it was appropriate to start things off with the deliciously Giants-colored Orange and Black Uni t-shirt from Plan B (Actually, we originally wanted to do something totally different, but we ended up having to GO WITH PLAN B!!! OMG GET IT!!!!1??) And since we’re firm believers in dancing with the one what brung ya’, we decided to pair our Plan B shirt with some Plan B shorts, in this case the Rebound shorts, a basketball style athletic short perfect for skating, dying or chilling somewhere in between. While we trying to decide on the shoes, as if by the unseen hand of fate, a fresh shipment of Nike 6.0 and Nike SB kicks arrived at our door with a full run of pro skater Paul Rodriguez’s signature Nike SB Zoom 2.5 shoes, which will be online first thing next week. Altogether, a perfect outfit for hitting the streets for a skate sesh, hitting the court for some B-ball, or just hitting the sports bar to watch the Giants game and enjoy an adult beverage. Of those three, I’ll just let you guess which one I’m gonna opt for immediately after typing this sentence. Hint: It’s not the first two. Check out Plan B Clothing and Nike 6.0 shoes at TruckerDeluxe and check out the SF Giants beating the tar out of the Oakland A’s tonight on TV!
You can’t deny that psychedelic ’60s inspired style is starting to creep back into the urban streetwear zeitgeist. And it’s not just nu-rave hipsters and post-hippie stoners copping that old school tie-dye vibe; a lot of the action sports and surfwear lines for summer and showing a retro influence. But few pieces have been as dope as the Tavik Dip Dye tee (above in Red, below in Purple) which takes the tie-dye approach and modernizes it for a cleaner look, with a three color gradient dip-dye color pattern that looks both futuristic, and retro. Check out our entire selection of Tavik men’s clothing on TruckerDeluxe.com and move your style forward, in reverse.

Though apparel and clothing companies donating a portion of their proceeds seems to be the new marketing gimmick du jour, Jedidiah Clothing have been quietly going about raising money for various charities since 2004. And though their various charitable pursuits – including 1% Percent For Humanity, an association of businesses dedicated to donating 1% of their profits that was founded by Jedidah – are a big part of their brand’s overall image, Jedidiah has never skimped on design or quality, as you can see for yourself with our new selection of Jedidiah tanks and t-shirts for Summer 2011. The Tide t-shirt (above) is a classic Jedidiah graphic tee, with a super clean classy design on a 100% cotton slim fit shirt.

The second segment of our Obey for Spring 2011 is online now, including the usual selection of dope tees (such as the three-quarter sleeve Valhalla), hoodies (like the Creature Comfort Pullover), denim and two new colorways of the already classic Obey Original Snapback.
