Wow what can I say about Africa is the Future T-shirts and the AITF brand? One thing I can say is that I love it! Alright everybody pull up a chair, story time:
So I saw the group Les Nubians rocking an Africa is the Future T-shirt back when Myspace was Facebook and Facebook was still in college and Imeem still existed(yes I took it there). I forgot about it and surfed, surfed, I rode the interact waves until I landed on the shoreline of Africa is the Future and I never looked back.
Direct from the website, the campaign says: AFRICA IS THE FUTURE is a t-shirt campaign initiated in 2004 by Nicolas Premier & Patrick Ayamam to promote new ways of thinking Africa and its place in the World. This project is independent and non-governmental. In order to give the genuine dimension that it deserves, our crew is now working on the building of unexpected and exciting partnerships !

If you don’t know we love our sneakers here at Creative Beach and Paris does too(that is a personal testament) Solebox is back again for their Sole Mart vending event where you bring your shoes, display and the rest is all about the sales pitch. It is a way for the popular site solebox to meet their customers and get back to the essence of what we all love…SNEAKERS. If you are in Paris and want to know more here is some info on the event direct from Solebox.de>

When Creative Beach first launched back in April the trailer for Leave A Message was posted and well here is the full documentary. Yeah we love sports! Regardless, besides the name of the site is Creative Beach (kanye shrug). Also who doesn’t like to watch surfing, don’t we all wish we could surf. It’s BLAZING here in Maryland and watching this documentary if only for a few minutes takes away the heat. Well watching in the air condition helps too. Check out THE top women surfers in the world. The documentary took two years to shoot and was shot in Indonesia, Australia and Mexico just to name a few locals. As always click on play and ENJOY!
If all business owners were this direct and as brand conscious but yet inclusive…let’s just say what recession!? Shout out to Creative Control TV and Dough-nut.com. Maybe field trip is in order!?
