Just because England can never beat Sweden at football (by which I mean the version where people use their feet rather than their hands) doesn’t mean I have anything against them, hell, I thought Stockholm was freakin’ awesome when I went there a few years ago. And now I’m e-returning to Svenska via the caliroots store, which I had presumed would be based in California, but I guess its just the clothes that have roots in American culture…

… Much like this track jacket from MHI which is inspired by a movie called ‘The Warriors’, which I’ve never seen, but with an IMDB rating of 7.3 it might be worth a rental. I don’t want to get off track here, but there is another film called ‘Warriors‘ (starring Gary Busey) that came up when I was searching, and one of the users comments was “really bad, even for a Canadian film”. Ok, now back to the track jacket.

I think you’ll agree that it’s a pretty bold design, and I like the font in a spray-paint can kind of a way, and the style of the map is cool, with the messy outline drips contrasting with the tourist-information-esque pictures of the subway cars. And on the front of the jacket there is an MHI/The Warriors logo mashup on the left breast.

Costiness=799 SEK (about 111 US Dollars, which kinda shocked me as being a bit high) URL
