TiagoTravaSingle and double pole design.

As soon as I saw these drop in Boreas Gear’s lookbook I was in love! So clean, simple, functional. Boreas really nailed it with these two tents. They come in a clean/simple one pole (Trava) and two pole (Tiago) design. They both sleep two people, or one person and dog, or one person and two smaller people, or four small people… you get the idea.  

“Since 2010, we’ve been designing award winning outdoor gear: beautiful, practical, hardwearing gear for people as passionate as we are about getting outdoors.”

Yes they have. I hope you dig as much as I do. Go to Boreas Gear and check these out for yourself. Also keep a close eye on John Watson’s IG page. He’s been putting the Tiago to the test. Cheers!

RIDE x CREATE

So here you go. I had close to a dozen other images that I edited and didn’t pick to post for my top 10 Levi’s x VSCO #Commuter images… but now I have the opportunity to show you fine folks those now. I hope you enjoy!

There you go! I hope you’ll go check out our VSCO Grid properly displaying the Top 10 for the Levi’s x VSCO #Commuter collaboration. Cheers!

RIDE x CREATE

This looked like a rad show!

Go to Eswic and check out the prints from “Lost and Found”. Solid stuff.

Freedom… need I say more.

This had to happen eventually. Glad it’s with the smart folks over at Cuppow!

Go to Cuppow and nab one of these suckers. Simple, effective, smart!

DOOOODE!!!!!

Swift Industries really nailed this one! I love this entire design! And for $200 this kit can be yours to travel all across the land in Get Lost style!

I hope you’ll take advantage. The pre-order goes until August 17th. Jah Blessed!!

RIDE x CREATE

Throughout this project Chris and I got to see a lot of different environments that we wouldn’t normally look at and think… “I’ll ride that”. I’ve learned that it will always be exploration fun to ride x shoot with a BMX rider. Chris is great at what he does which made capturing him in action very easy.

This is the first time I’ve been referenced as a photographer since Kyle and I started this FOLLY shenanigans. To quote Visual Supply Co. I’m a “world-class photographer”, but to be honest… I don’t see myself in that light. Since day one back in 2011 our message has been to Ride x Create; take the simple tools you have available to you right now and create something the world has never seen. This motivational message came from deep inside and where I was at at the time. I still believe in it today and will do so for many moons to come.

Moral of the story… use what’s available to you today, get creative, accept failure, learn from it, stay consistent x progressive. This formula in conjunction with time will prove to be successful.

I hope you’ve enjoyed my top 10 Levi’s x VSCO #commuter images. They were all taken and edited with an iPhone. I hope you’ll go check out our VSCO Grid for all things Ride x Create. Cheers!

(Editor’s Note: I’ll be posting 13 Levi’s x VSCO #commuter outtakes next week. Jah blessed!)
