New Obama T-Shirt from Undercrwn, and New Female T's from 'Violet' Clothes

Just in from Undercrwn this very fresh political T. The foreground graphic is Obama dunking, in the style of the youthful Vince Carter's 2000 Olympic dunk over a unwieldy 7-foot white guy (get the metaphoric parallel?), over John Mccain. In the background is Obama's 'O' logo. The shirt comes in black and white, but please, for your sake, come quickly, as supplies are limited and this is a hot item.

Undercrwn Obama Tee In White $36

For reference, here's Vince Carter's famous dunk:

New girls t's from a young brand 'Violet Clothes.' While all three t-shirts are very nice, the 'To dance is to be happy' shirt is extra-special for having font that changes back and forth from white font to purple font depending on whether it's in the sun or not.

Violet Heels Tee $30

*Letters change colors from light dark dark purple in sunlight*

Violet 'To Dance Is To Be Happy' Tee $30

Reebok Pumps and Limited Edition New Balance's

Our first Reebok Pump arrived (more coming soon) and, honestly, it couldn't be a prettier shoe. Supplies for this shoe are very limited-- a couple have already left the shelf before I had a chance to even take a picture of them.

Reebok Pump Omni Lite Python Snakeskin $150

And just in time for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, New Balance has released these shoes commemorating China's operatic history. Initially limited just to Asian release, Half-Way Crooks has these limited edition kicks in two colorways. The pictures don't do the details on these shoes justice:

New Balance Limited Edition Chinese Masks Orange; Green $100

Also commemorating the Olympics' ultimate prizes--medals--are these two 576's. Initially exclusive to Japan, Half-Way Crooks has the Gold and Silver. While I'm rather partial to the silver, Gold seems to be more appropriate given America's Olympic success.

Half-Way Crooks featured in Best of Boston TV

This is our spot from a couple weeks back on 'Best of Boston TV' (on Channel 5). It was quite the privilege being featured with businesses that have been established for generations, being a new business.

Thanks to the customers and friends who stopped by, namely MP, Greg, Jamie, Katie, Margaret, Seegz and Marisa B.

Special thanks to Chelsea and her crew for the great job they did. Also, after watching myself sit on TV I've decided that I have severe posture problems which I need to address...
