Lemaire

Photobucket
Christophe Lemaire, is by day the creative director of Lacoste. The LEMAIRE collections are a crystallisation of a universe sweeping across a large spectrum of cultures: pop, rock, mods and misfits. This is so well illustrated by Ted Polhemus’ Streetstyle from Sidewalk to Catwalk. It is no secret that the designer has always been fascinated and inspired by the evolutions in music and pop culture, the blend of attitudes and the perfume of liberty they secrete.

ACTUAL PAIN: BLOOD, FIRE & DEATH! SPRING 08

HAMMER HEART - Raise the chalice to Quothorn, raise the chalice to
METAL. Printed in two distinct color fades and also available in
classic black and white!
Photobucket
BLOOD, FIRE & DEATH - This tee is based on the unholy trinity of black
metal/ our design cult mantra. Offered in four sickening colors...
"Children of all slaves, stand united and proud, all people of bondage
shall triumph, and live by the sign of... BLOOD FIRE DEATH."
Photobucket
CHAINMAIL - Defend yourselves! This world is a war zone filled with
meth heads and yuppies. Daylight versions of George Romero's
nightmares.... When people ask why I collect medievil weapons I simply
put on this shirt and they just slowly back away. Printed chainmail
design on front and back with 3M reflective ink, this one looks CRAZY
with flash photos!
Photobucket
DOWN WITH THE COUNT - Christopher Lee as Dracula was more or less
UNFUCKWITHABLE. How did he get his eyes to look so bloodshot and
blazed all the time? Hmmm... This print is done in a purple to red
fade on three different tee colors!

and minerals essential to thrashing? IT'S TRUE! Available in four
sickening color ways.
Photobucket
LESS FASHION MORE THRASHIN - This phrase comes up a lot around the
Actual Pain office. We are constantly saying this to each other. It
takes getting really wasted before we realize that it would make a
KILLER design! Five distinctly different color ways!
Photobucket
WARGOD HATCHET - The God of War returns in this gorey tee... A three
color screen available in four differnt colored tees!

IRONS: Dawn of a New Supergroup

Irons is a new supergroup made up of Jake Bannon from Converge, the artist Stephen Kasner and our old chum Dwid Van Hellion (he of Integrity, Roses Never Fade and a thousand apocryphal tales that have been circulating around hardcore for about 20 years) then you can go right ahead and take out ownership of the word.
Irons are a collaborative effort of these three artistic visionaries. A collective effort to create apocalyptic, non-linear music from a primal fine art based mindset.

Louise Du Toit

Photobucket Photobucket
Louise Du Toit is the brand manager of our favorite label 'Acne Jeans' in North America. We love of how she is able to mix masculine and feminine styling so effortlessly and seamlessly. She dresses simply, but with such style and a beautiful minimalistic makeup.
At the moment she was inspired by the look of Alex DeLarge, a fictional character in Clockwork Orange, as she says: '"i enjoy a sense of androgyny".
We think, Louise represent Acne Jeans way so good. ... This girl really has a sense of style.
