Don’t let your eyeballs burn!

Posted by progirl On June - 29 - 2010

It’s that time of year ladies and gentlemen,

Where the your eyes hurt even on cloudy days, or you close your eyes and see sun spots when you look too close to the sun. Your eyeballs called and pleaded that THIS needs to stop, they don’t want to hurt anymore… So we’ve got the solution for you. You need REAL sunglasses, not the cheapy dollar store kind that you don’t care if you lose, break, or run over with your car, but a pair that you take pride in wiping the lenses and storing in a case when you’re not using them. I promise you that your eyeballs will thank you in return by not giving you a headache and your face will be pretty pleased also, looking so fine with a new pair of shades. All our sunglasses have 100% UVA protection and most have a lifetime warranty to back them. We’ve got shades from Anon, Von Zipper, Electric, Spy and Dragon. Our sunglasses start at just $69 bucks and you can even wear them at night if you would like to, you might even be as cool as Corey Hart (but I said MIGHT).

Here are a few photos of our sunglasses cases to let your eyes start watering from pure joy.

See you soon,

Posted by progirl On June - 26 - 2010

Hello Ladies!

I know that summer is just starting to hit us in full swing, so sandals are what we most of us are wearing, but NEW VANS have just arrived. These new shoes are B-E-A-Utiful! There are new Lo-Pro’s in swede, Era’s with a thicker canvas twill (great for skating!) Aleeda’s and some great colours in the Lo-Pro Gore’s that don’t have laces. These are the first of our Fall shoes to arrive, but they’re still perfect for the summer. Check out the photos below;

Mega Manualing Maniacs!

Posted by progirl On June - 22 - 2010

So if you weren’t at The Commons Skate Park last night you missed a great show… the lovely peeps at Red Bull held “Manny Mania” here in Halifax. The quality of skating on this day was unrivaled by any regular day at the skate park. Guys came from all over N.S. to participate and show their best manualing skills. The stars of the evening were Johnny Purcell taking 3rd place, Alexander Mitchell coming in a close 2nd place to Neil Blackwood who came in 1st. Neil now gets to go to Vancouver on July 17th and compete in the Canadian Finals… Good luck!! We were all impressed with the skating that happened last night and congrats to all the finalists, you guys were awesome.

Here are some photos from last night;
