For the second chapter of Varsity Bones, SBTG pays tribute to legendary pop culture icon Michael Jackson. Inspired by his famous red leather jacket from “Thriller” the Blazer features a leather jacket sewn in clean luxurious lines with studded collars, black satin, and geometric contrasts with a zipper baseline. The third chapter of the Varsity Bones saga is B.R.M.C: a fantasy biker gang inspired by a life on the road and on the run. The sneaker comes to life with an intense mix of locks and chains, denim rivets, gang patches, zippers on quilted linings and animal fur. The shoes will launch on OCTOBER 5th 2009 at Royalefam.

Working once again with famed Singapore-based sneaker customizer, SBTG, DC Life presents a capsule collection of collaborative gear under the Royalefam umbrella. Inspired by SBTG’s childhood skate gang, Circus of Mutants, the shoes were done up in a black and green colorway with familiar SBTG details and an abundance of Fly imagery. Don’t quote us on this, but apparently, each skater in the crew had their own nickname, with SBTG’s being “The Fly.” The capsule release includes 5-panel cap, snapback, boardshort and t-shirt components. The boardshorts stand out as especially fly to us. Hits select accounts for Spring 2010.

The latest development in the G-Shock 25th anniversary celebration is this DW-5600 done by Singapore-based sneaker customizer SBTG, for whom this was a childhood dream come true. “My mom bought me a G-shock when I was about seven years old and I immediately felt like the luckiest kid in school. It was a status symbol man.” Taking a simple black base, SBTG printed the face and strap with his trademark star and camo patterns, seen across both his shoes and Royalefam clothing line.

For those of you looking to get your hands on this piece, the watch is being given away through Royalefam.com — sign-up between now and August 2nd for your chance to win. No purchase necessary. It is rumored that there are only 10 pieces in existence.

The recently released Paramount Dunks by premium sneaker customizer SBTG sold out in no time and since so much work is involved in creating them, only a very limited amount of sneakers can be made. In order to still give something to their customers, they have now released the Paramount T-Shirt.
It is now available online in both black and white.

Last week we gave you a first preview of the SBTG x Lazy Paramount Dunk and today we can show you images of a 1 of 1 Paramount Dunk, which turned out very impressive and will be used for the final model.
Using selvage denim was always mandatory for a customade sneaker and hunting a specific "gucci" selvage with black denim was like a dream come true.  
Selvage is desirable because the edge can’t fray like lower grade denims that have separate wefts which leave an open edge that must be stitched. In this case, the selvage sits perfectly on the top of the midsoles like its supposed to be aesthetically. Seeing the denim fray on the midsole is simply blasphemous.
The beauty of it all is that an exposed selvage lining on the midsole can only be achieved through a D.I.Y. process due to the nature of the denim and the sneaker panel curves. It is a very tedious process. 
Maintaining an understated look by leaving all the uppers black. leaving the focus on the midsole area which forms a perfect layer cake "green, red, green, off white, black stitching & lastly, gumsoles.
Lastly, a final touch of finesse, a black snakeskin swoosh. We especiallyenjoy that the sneaker does not come with any graphics, and that they concentrated on the right material mix.The outcome is a beautiful sneaker. The final model will also be coming with Starks Laces and of course with the input of Lazy. Expect it to be soon released at Royalefam.
