"And the winner is..."
Hey we made another Best of list. This time the nod comes from The Sun Post. Here is a little excerpt from the Sun Post Best of 2008 issue.
"Chris Oh sits on a bike casually welcoming customers while they peruse a variety of clothing and shoes at his store Culture Kings. Art lines the walls and Vans slip-ons, which were painted and designed by various artists, make up a display near the entrance. Culture Kings carries T-shirts, hats, art and skateboards, but the draw is definitely the kicks. A sneaker head, Oh left a career in corporate drudgery to open Culture Kings, where he drew inspiration from his earlier days as a graffiti artist to create the store’s street aesthetic. The store has a wall of colorful one-of-a-kind shoes and carries limited edition sneakers. (Currently, he has a $500 pair of brand-new retro Nike Air Jordan II.) The Vans slip-ons, which were part of a Vans-sponsored art show at the store, feature painted images of decapitated figures, mixed-media creations and designs that utilize papier-mâché." The Sun Post Best of 2008.
"We'd like to thank the Sun Post, the Devil (because everyone else thanks God), my mom who was always there for me, (pause), and all the fans for believing in us. Oh my god I wasn't expecting this... blah blah blah." (pause) No seriously, big up to the Sun Post staff for the love.
