Polo Bear by FUKK EM

Fukk EM Worldwide is continuing to apply pressure all throughout 2022, once again by doing their take on a brand we know and love, this time the “Polo Bear” gets the FUKK EM treatment.

Other people have done their take on the “Polo Bear” previously but very rarely change up how the bear looks. I really dig how the bear is on his street shit, with FUKK EM on his chest and pants. Since it’s $GREY Gang all day you already know I got my eye on that grey piece.

The white color way is just some classic shit. The red from the FUKK EM logo below the bear really hits on these. I really feel these will become a fan favorite amongst supporters of the brand, getting hella placements in the streets.

FUKK EM Worldwide has without a doubt cemented themselves has one of the faces of Tampa Bay Streetwear, with each piece having its own story while still staying on brand. Shout out my dawg Fat Geechie.

Living Legend

Creative James Sellers is giving flowers to those who can still smell them with his latest “Living Legends” recycled Levis, dropping on 2/22/22.

With living legends already sporting the jeans, like Gallardo and Proper Jones, it’s only a matter of time before these “Living Legend” are one of St.Pete’s premier statement pieces.

It’s has not yet be revealed how to obtain the jeans but I am sure James will either bless you or if you reach out to him he can get you dripped. I am not sure how limited these will be but I am sure they are a limited run. I for sure love the concept of these Levi’s, allowing the person rocking them to be on their “Living Legend”, icon shit.

James is also dropping these camo “Ye 2024”, “If I Could Change Anything I would Change Everything” pieces. A different take than the “Living Legend” pieces but these still have their own story. That red and blue embroidery really hits on the camo joints.

James Sellers is doing some game changing work, from his art to his clothing, but I feel these “Living Legend” pieces will have a big impact on the community throughout the Tampa Bay fashion scene.

Otterocity

The homie Jomel Fernandez, creator of “The Fernandez Vlogs” takes his stab at the Merch game with his latest creation “Otterocity”.

With the homies over at BTMVLE being the one stop shop for creation, you already know the homie Takeo was hands on with Jomel on the branding and logo design. The pieces are all hand printed in house, with each item featuring that Otterocity branding.

The logo tees come in black and white color ways. Personally I am more of a black tee guy so until we get some grey pieces the black is my favorite. The Otter with the shades has a really dope design, and definitely fits the brand. If it comes out the BTMVLE you know the quality it’s top tier.

The homie Jomel went all in on these Champion long sleeves, featuring the Otterocity word mark on the sleeves as well as that fly Otter on the chest.

Really solid first drop from the brand, I can definitely see new color ways and pieces becoming available soon. Otterocity isn’t just a brand it’s a way of life. Bang Bang Otter Gang!
