There’s a brand new sugar coated snack for Melbourne’s cake hole and its called Donuts Deluxe. Filling Melbournes drastic retail gap with nothing less than hot jam.

D’nuts is open for business and is stocking a large and rotating selection of rare sneakers and apparel by Thrasher, Juxtapose, , New Era, 20’s and 10’s and Nice Produce, as well as skate, art magazine and supplies.

Its good to finally see something like this open in the city, a no bullshit blank canvas for crazy new ideas, and crew who have a clue on whats up.

We got a huge sugar fueled lanch party planned which will coincide with the release of limited edition Donuts Deluxe T’s by both Nice and 20’s and 10’s to commemorate the momentous occasion. More news on this down the line.

Until then get in and check it for your self at the end of Carson Place, off Little Collins between Swantson and Elizabeth. Just under Nice HQ.

Sneakers currently in rotation.

I’ve just finished the second and 2008, No Comply Wood Grain Camo Design which will be the basis of this years visual representation of the exhibition.

Based on UK 4 Color, however remade with balanced brush strokes to do the patterns theme justice with organic detailing. The contrast, compared with last years will probably be a headache while I’m trying to place text over it, but i think its worth it.

Thanks to Kano who designed last years pattern, the plan is that Kano’s original wood grain concept will evolve into new designs with each progressive year, to parallel the evolution and growth of the No Comply Exhibitions themselves. Touch wood. (shit, i’m sorry about the pun).

Its official…

No Comply 2008 will be at No Vacancy in QV. Melbourne’s newest, dopest and biggest arts space, huge enough to fit the 170 piece collection and also run by crew who have their head around the culture who will do show justice, which is the hardest thing to find.

We will also be constructing a third wall down the center of the room to increase the hanging space to over 80 meters.

No Comply will be on show for 3 weeks during November. Details about Sydney will be locked in soon.

3 days in the city, a heap of paint… and way to much coffee later.

A few progress shots.
