A while ago, a friend asked me if I’ve ever been to Gay Phil’s (sidenote: Gay Phil is allegedly 100% heterosexual) store. I hadn’t and my answer was probably something like “What are you talking about? He doesn’t own a store.” But, he does! And, some people liked the store so much that they […]

San Francisco fun vampires, you need to check out an art exhibit for us. Our Irak-y pal Tim Artz dropped us a line to let us know that he and the rest of the Dustward have an art show opening TONIGHT at San Francisco’s Hamburger Eyes Epicenter.

Giant Robot - the fanzine dedicated to covering Asian and Asian-American pop culture - has hit issue FIFTY! That’s a Godzilla-like accomplishment. And in this issue they interview our friends.

Our main man and sometimes FV contributor DES is one of the peeps at House 33. He sent me an email the other day from a very unhappy and hilarious customer detailing what was wrong with his purchase and what he was going to do for revenge. I was praying the House 33 demigods would […]

You’re a goddamned idiot but boy do we have a handbag for you.

CITY HALL RALLY CAPS ON! Field reporters without cameras update on the Phillies’ mega-rally at City Hall.
Former HxC contributor and wrestling aficionado OB reports –
The rally is crazy. There are like 10,000 people there. The plaza on the west side of City Hall is completely full and people will spilling into the street. Across the […]

MishkaNYC is a streetwear company. Dave Elliot and Ron Morelli are DJs. Ron lived in Philly for a while and he had two different nights that i loved: Reagan Diskow Headache and the super awesome Paradise At Key West. Then he left Philly to attend Handsome Boy Modelling School. He and Dave formed like Voltron and became the […]

I guess there is this new Phillyblog written by some people that used to write a column for Philebrity. The new jawn is called Ugh News or something like that. Maybe it is just called Ugh. I don’t know. In any case, they decided that it would be a good idea to write something […]

Yo! Mtv Raps was probably the best show to ever air on Mtv. Puma is coming out with some limited edition Yo! Mtv Raps Clydes.  Actually, I think that they debuted some Forever Fresh Yo! Mtv Raps x Puma Clydes last year and now they are teaming up again to drop six new pairs.  I […]

If you are of a certain age and you were into skateboarding then chances are pretty good that you were a Natas Kaupas fan. I know that I was!
How could you not be?
The guys name was sataN spelled backwards. He had a really innovative and sick style. His hair and skate style were weird as […]

For the past few Fridays I’ve been slacking on these chilling at the beach.  Today I am still slacking chilling at the beach but Pie brought her komputer and we’re somehow accessing the interweb.  I’m gonna keep these picks short and sweet because it’s almost two pm and I already have a few beers in me and now […]

Philadelphia Magazine has a nice little write up about our pals Track + Field. It’s probably not as fashion-forward as their mention on Hypebeast but Main Line Soccer Moms have deeper pockets than internet sneaker fiends, y’know?
Internetters can buy bags at the Track + Field site. In Philly, visit the Deep Sleep boutique […]

Today at the FV Cult Compound we got hooked up with a bunch of new House 33 shirts. Sometimes FV contributor Jeremy Dean aka DES was kind enough to sponsor our collective wardrobe so we wanted to thank him by showing the rest of you a peak of the new shirt line. If you’re not […]

I know! Everyone is sad now that Paradise At Key West is no more. We’ve got the super secret inside scoop on WHY it’s no more…

Hypebeast is probably thee most important internet site to find info and pics of the newest and freshest streetwear. Track + Field are our good friends and I was super stoked to find them featured on Hypebeast this morning! Enter to win a Track + Field bag here.

As part of the I-95 series, Nike is set to release a North Philly Air Force 1.

I guess that March came in like a lion and went out like a frozen leg of lamb because it is going to be COLD out there this weekend. I hate the cold and feel like the only way to combat it is to be drunk or busy or both. In the spirit […]

You might know Bryan Trackstar as half of The Yah Mos Def. Or, perhaps you know him from his old record label. Or, any of his old bands. Or, his old messageboard (T*, holla!) Or, maybe you know him because you are an avid runner.
On the off chance that you don’t know him, let me […]

I love flannel shirts…my inner white trash won’t let me feel any differently. The soft, yet durable material is an excellent wear in cooler temperatures for a slender dude like myself. My love of flannel was instilled in me by my father, a cable-splicer for NYNEX/Bell Atlantic/Verizon, who extolled the virtues of said woolen […]

Nothing says STEAL THIS BIKE like a designer bike chain lock.
That’s why we here at Fun Vampires have to give it up to the people at Supreme for this snazzy chain lock. It’s probably limited edition and it probably costs more than your precious track bike. Via Hiroshi @ Honeyee.
