“It always bothers me to see people writing ‘RIP’ when a person dies. It just feels so insincere and like a cop-out. To me, ‘RIP’ is the microwave dinner of posthumous honors”

OCTOBER WILD
The Black Needle denims are in Wild Mag in France this month! Freakyrico met our friend from Bramby Design for a shooting and loved them!! They probably had some good drinks together and mixed up a bit as Bramby didn't designed these pieces but soon he will I am sure!! Thanks for the support guys. Check out the website THE BLACK NEEDLE, our BigCartel as well as a complete article by Denim Hunter.
CUSTOM SEAT
I use to do everything by hand but when a friend invite you to try a good sewing machine, it's a pretty good time to try! Second seat I made with a machine for a special project for Angry Lane. Result is pretty rad and I can't wait to see it on the special custom we build for mister black in Hong Kong. Singer songwriter and radio host you will soon get to know the man behind the project as the bike is on the final assembly! Soon on the Angry Lane website
CONVENTION 2013
First ever Tattoo Convention in Hong Kong was just this week end. Artist from all over the world, good art, good music, good time and good inspiration from the next piece I'm gonna get soon. Nic, Rob, the Start Crossed guys, Gabe, DP, Draf, they were all there!! I will definitely join next year to do some leather work demonstration with the Black Needle team! I keep your word Gabe Shum.
