Neef C: This is just a little teaser for my avid bloggers in the blogosphere. Creatively thinking, I embrace videos a lot. Please prepare yourself to feast your starving eyes on a lot more in the future. I need to grab a “Video Editing for Dummies” book so I can cook behind the lens. Smoove job by the man Ovaflow too with the video. We all have a hidden talent waiting to burst in this world of creativity.
League Low. Autumn Lookbook soon come.

Neef C: I was too excited to make this post. First and foremost, lots of love to Young Craig for these excellent photos, we’ve been working with each other to innovate in the art of photography. Seeing exactly what we can do to shed the transparent skins that are seen with everyday style images. My militant brother Brent S and I were subject to making a jungle boot post with the amount of times we wear them though the every changing season of fall. I’ve learned to appreciate the militant garments that were worn by all of those that sacrificed their lives to keep America protected. The jungle boot is a very durable boot that maintains the dry and warm foot that we look for in this season. the canvas and rubber feel brings me to the days i was a boy scout in the woods counting the stars careless-like and skipping rocks in the park lake. Let us take you back to those days whether it was in community organizations, camping vacations with the family, or even serving your country in combat.

Mike C: “Dr. Marten Boots” are a traditional and popular British footwear brand that over the last few years has become quite popular in American style & fashion. A stark contrast from the Polo, Uggs & Timberland boots majority of males choose to wear today, “DM’s” stand alone with it’s unique air cushioned sole’s, sleek design & great selection in styles and colors. Besides the “Original Clark Dessert Boots” Doc’s would have to be my favorite footwear of choice. Myself & newest ACL member Lavan Williams wanted to create a post focusing on the detail of this great boot. S/O to ACL “OG” Hanif Castle with the excellent photography, he is actually becoming a very good photographer. Stay tuned for more “Fall Thoughts” post leading up to our much anticipated 2011 Fall Lookbook.

Brent S: The greatness of a bow tie is only a matter of opinion, but to brothers like me and O the bow tie is essential to our style. The bow tie can be both leisure and formal attire. The pattern and materials of a bow tie make them unique not all bow ties are made of silk and a polka dot bow tie. Shout out to my man Pee Wee Herman the man who inspired me to wear a bow tie as a young man. The fits of me and brother Ovaflow are unique in there own ways. In many ways bow tie wearers have been looked at with stereotypes attached to them. Some being the professions of the bow tie wearer being a Architects, Physicians, Attorneys, Professors. The bow tie hints at an era of distinguish men with intellectualism in their experience category of their resumes. Todays photos were taken by Brother Hanif I Castle the focus on detail one of ACL’s goals.

Neef C: Maybe its just me but I’ll speak for the league. Sometimes no, usually I feel like we cater to our followers wants with photos of us wearing clothes that everyone like and not think about the content that we write to educate or inspire our oh so great supporters minds. I’m quite large on detail and I have the desire to inform bloggers like us that its easy to take a picture and put it on a website to gain the eye of the chosen few that are known as “hipsters” to make a difference in the blogosphere. Creating something that is essential and true to you in the main purpose. I tell the fellas all of the time that you can’t live without purpose. I’m a firm believer in freewill so life is truly what you make of it. So enough of my preaching and let’s talk style/thrift. Here’s a cool video by The Art of Re use, some of the coolest Canadians on the planet besides The Weeknd. These determined young lads created something from sheer knowledge. They’re creativity is literally bananas. INSPIRING
I hope I touched someone hurt as well as there mind. Let’s begin to make a difference folks
And League Low.

Mike C: It’s October already!!!!! The leaves have begun to fall from the trees and the weather has began to grow colder by the day, however ACL is just getting warmed up. The brothers and I decided to create a post not focusing on any particular fabric or piece of clothing but rather show support to one of this months highlights: “Breast Cancer Awareness”. Cancer is one of this most feared diseases known to man plaguing over a half million people each year. Breast Cancer has proven to be one of the deadliest forms ranking 2nd as leading causes of death in woman and men alike. Much thanks to Brandon Johnson with the excellent photography.

Mike C: ACL is back in full effect with another “Fall Thoughts” post by myself and my fellow ACL bretheren Michael Sule. Fall is upon us and the weather during this season can be quite tricky and often times unpredictable. Sule and I wanted to create a post on an article of clothing that showed versatility, left room for comfort, all while remaining stylish; “The Bubble Vest”.

Neef C: Well what do you know, Fall already? Not necessarily here in Delaware but why not get an early start. As we continue a traditional series with fall thoughts I wanted to bring the famous fabric of wool back into the eyes of the blogosphere. Fall Thoughts is a series that can help educate the blogosphere about items and fabrics that we can all wear in the cooler months of the year. I really choose to break “fashion laws” and wear heavy and soft fabrics throughout my 365 days given to me. The fellas and I have much work to do and a lot of posts to make in due time. We must make up for all of the “leisure time” we ad on our hands and place our portion in the style blogosphere. We enjoy it as much as you do.
