Mission Mission

Hurts my eyes! But I like it!

Spotted at the Phoenix.

Our pal Jenny Odell, word-renowned repurposor of Google Maps satellite images, has a new shirt available on Threadless this week. It’s 104 Airplanes!

Hot new look for the summer – a gently worn, authentic Eddie Bauer bag. Real deal Mission District grime and good times embedded in the thread. Stop being a Chrome drone or Timbuksnoozer and get some stylee. Guaranteed to keep your booze brisk and your tacos crisp while you’re chillin at Dolo parque this summer. Nuff said!

Pretty and locally made. Now in stock at Pushbike:

These awesome rucksacks from Freight Baggage are very popular for a daypack. There’s a drawstring closure under the flap, waterproof vinyl liner, and the same great straps as on all the Freight backpacks/rolltops!  We got a couple medium rolltops in stock too and lots of hip packs! [link]

They’ll go quick, so get thee there quicker. (Because one of these beauties would make a great addition to your history of backpacks.)

Reader Claire notified us of some interesting new branding over at Crate & Barrel. I have kindly reproduced the listed contents of the Dolores Park set below, for those of you who don’t have 20/20 vision:

• Burger/bratwurst sauce
• Barbecue sauce
• Burger press
• Insulated cooler tote (not the first insulated cooler bag to be associated with the Dolores brand, by the way)
• Mini-grill of some Nordic brand

Now, I’m not sure if this is due to the recent “discovery” of the Mission, the growing commercialization of Dolores Park, some disgruntled employees making a funny, or some combination of the above. What I’ve learned is that somewhere, somebody’s idea of Dolores Park involves saucy burgers and the cutest shade of lime green.

Or as Claire would put it:

Game over Dolores Park. Game over.

My favorite local t-shirt company Cool Try just dropped this killer new design. Order one here if you’d like to wear your Cali pride on your sleeve. (SF residents get free shipping as always.)

Now let’s rock:
