If you carry REBEL8 in your store, holler at your rep to get this 4' x 6' vinyl NEVER DIE Banner. If you don't currently carry our beloved products and want to, please email sales@rebel8.com. Sorry this item is exclusive to our wholesale accounts. This is not available to buy in our online store. You must have a brick & mortar store that carries REBEL8 to get this.
THE GOOD LIFE Mens Jersey is one of our favorite jersey offerings this Winter. It's a remix of Mike Giant's Stay Gold tattoo shop tee from many years ago back when he lived/worked in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
THE GOOD LIFE Mens Tee is also an available option of this classic Mike Giant illustration.
And never count out the snapback. Available in raw denim with black mesh, or black twill.
Our Winter season is pretty big as I'm sure you know by now. For quite a few days it's been selling 24/7 in our online store. If for some crazy reason you haven't checked it out, stop reading what I'm writing and check it out immediately.
Still there? Cool. For this entire week, I'm gonna pick one product from our Winter '11 collection each day and do a little write-up. We'll start with our most advanced piece of the season: the CROOKLYN Mens Jacket.
The description on the product page is simple; "Felted wool jacket with removable hood and screenprinted liner." But let me add a few more words. The felted wool is super-thick. This jacket will keep you warm on the East Coast. It is made of the utmost quality and material. The craftmanship is flawless. All of the zippers are top-quality large-size durable YKK. Directly above the left chest zipper pocket is tonal embroidery saying, "REBEL EIGHT," in one of Giant's signature hand styles. The interior of the jacket is 100% black cotton with a screenprint at center-back. The same image of this tee, but in white print.
I am aware this is not a cheap jacket. At $250.00 this is the most expensive product we've ever produced at REBEL8. Check it, having your garments produced in the best jacket factory on Earth comes at a cost. I'll be damned to put the good REBEL8 name on an inferior product. I hope you get the chance to own it and I guarantee that when you put the CROOKLYN on, you'll understand 100% why this jacket sells for 250 bucks and can go toe-to-toe with any jacket 4x that amount. Trust in us and we won't lead you astray.
Have a wonderful Monday and happy shopping!
Every morning I like to walk down this path in Golden Gate Park to meditate and get my mind ready for the day.
Saw these flowers along the way this morning.
I sure am enjoying life in the Inner Richmond again.
Now I'm at Hydrilla setting up for Saturday night's party...
Hope you can join us!
This was a letter I sent a few days ago to our REBEL8ers that joined our newsletter:
REBEL8ers-
Hope this message finds you happy & well!
It’s almost midnight and I’m sitting in the warehouse typing this newsletter right now all by myself. The office cleared out hours ago and it is at this very moment I’m reminiscing how it used to be just me at REBEL8, working out of my 10’ x 10’ apartment all day ‘n night, all alone. It still blows my mind that I started REBEL8 eight years ago with just $500 and a dream. The continued support from you has allowed me to put every single dollar back into the company to make it the best it can be. I am beyond appreciative of your support, dedication and sincere love for the brand that is my life too.
And with that said, it’s an incredible pleasure to be the first to announce the official release of REBEL8 Winter 2011. I went with a text-only email blast instead of a fancy graphic newsletter not because I wanted our biggest and best season to remain a secret for a few more seconds, but I've been staring at a damn computer screen for 18-hours loading the site. I couldn't wait a moment longer to spread the news!
A big hello and welcome to all the thousands of new REBEL8ers that recently joined this newsletter. I told ya you'd be the first to know when Winter '11 is here and I hope you love it as much as I do.
REBEL8 Winter ’11 is huge! This collection is our most cohesive offering we’ve ever been able to produce as a company. So let me cut to the chase, click here and enjoy! Check out every. Single. Section. Quite a few special items are not to be missed. And if something is sold out already, don’t fret, inventory is still loading in. Simply click the ‘get notified’ button and you’ll receive an email when that product is back in stock.
Thanks again!
Very truly,
Joshy D.
President & CEO
PS: I urge you to buy our Shirts & Jackets. Our quality is unmatched and I guarantee you will not be disappointed with your purchase.
I met a guy named Jerry a year or so ago. No he was not a race car driver. Jerry Buttles is photographer based in Oakland, CA. He took a photo of Giant's knuckles that I loved. I really wanted to throw it on some things and he gave me his blessing. Thank you kindly Buttles.
Here is the finished tee. Giant illustrated a border to match the look of the photo & tattoo font and handled the text below which reads, "REBEL8 Clothing Company. Since Two Thousand Three." It's proudly part of our Winter '11 line.
And I had to make a snapback! Available as a grey heathered wool blend snapback with embroidery details and screenprinted underbrim and...
a grey twill mesh cap with black mesh, embroidery details and screenprinted underbrim. Both part of our Winter '11 season.
Here are some of Jerry's other photos that are equally dope.
REBEL8 Winter 2011 is landing in stores worldwide. Bug your local shop to carry the Originals!
Went to my first professional football game yesterday with my buddy Francisco. Go Raiders!
While we toked the rest of our crew inhaled ribs!
We had a great view.
And the Raiders lost. Lots of sad faces on the walk out of the stadium. I still had a great time. Thanks, guys!
My first big girl trip to the Midwest. Mall of 'Merica.
This place has it all. First stop, roller coaster in the middle of the mall.
Then off to take some family portraits.
T-shirt shack. So hard to choose.
This guy.
Ciao for now.
