Merry Santa and Happy New Reindeers!

Here are a couple of photos from this year’s Christmas Sale. Thanks to everyone who came, it’s always a pleasure to get to see you all. Thanks to all the ones who came to help over the week-end, you know we really appreciate it. May all of you have a sweet Rutsch into 2010. See you next year!

1| CHRISTMAS MARKET
December 12-13, 14h-20h00
Café de l’Ancienne Gare à Fribourg, “expo” wing

With fond memories of last year’s first edition, we are happy to come back this year in good company: RONDECHUTE, LOWRIDER, MAI STYLE, MARIE GUYOT, GRAPHEIN, FERNANDO, VALENTINE MATTER, SAÏKO et PAN. Come on over to discover new brands and check out our complete new collection in a calm and cozy atmosphere!

2| THE LAST X-MAS SALE

December 18, 16h-19h / December 19, 9h30-16h
3B Skatepark, rte des Arsenaux 12, 1700 Fribourg

As with old friends, introductions are not necessary: That much choice at these prices, the X-Mas Sale remains, for a couple of hours a year, the best bargain destination in town. GOODIES ONLINE will be our special guest this year, along with regulars LOWRIDER & SAPIENT Snowboards.

We say “last” on the poster because the 3B skatepark will have to close down in September 2010 - when the building is going to be taken down. No one knows what will happen next, but it won’t keep us from greeting you with a cup of tea, a slice of cake and a smile!

Finally, if you feel like having those details in a bilingual format, you can improve your french/english skills by reading it all again in our latest newsletter.

See you there and then!

You don’t know it yet, but the clock is ticking for our dear 3B skatepark.

As usual, it was built inside an almost deserted warehouse and now the whole neighbourhood is being rebuilt, which means that the whole thing will be torn down come september next year.

The whole crew behind the park is now looking for a place to move and rebuild the setup so we all have a place to skate when the town is rainy-cold-or-covered-in-snow.

Any kind of help is welcome of course, so in an effort to draw as much attention as possible to the issue, they’re organising a contest at the park. Some of you already know the location, it’s where our annual X-Mas Sale has been held over the last few years.

If you skate, enter the contest and have a go at winning some of the prizes hOme, Lowrider, Enjoi, Element and DVS have provided. If you don’t skate, come and have a look, there’s a Game of skate and a Best trick, so crazy tricks will be on the menu.

…and if you happen to be the owner of a 2000 square meter warehouse… email Public Domain!

Cheers

Love it when someone sends photos of their trip away from hOme where they managed to bring a bit of us with them, makes us feel like we are part of the experience!

This time Corinne and Jan turned their newly acquired van into their down under hOme.

Cheers to that, have a great trip.

Lo and behold… the fall-winter line is now available from our online shop!

Before you read all about it in our latest official announcement, keep in mind most of these new pieces will be on display this saturday in Lausanne @ La Bossette during the “Jour de Lessive” event (see previous news post for more info).

Voilà, now that your Saturday evening is fully booked, you can concentrate on choosing your favourite pieces from the online shop!

Cheers

No need to let you know it’s getting chillier as we approach the last two months of dear old 2009.

That’s why t-shirt lovers now gather indoors, preferably in a tiny bar with good food, shiny happy people and enough liquid to last a whole night.

Tiny yes, but the more we are the less heating we need, so come and join us this saturday october 31st at Café La Bossette, Place du Nord 4, 1004 Lausanne, from 4pm to whenever they decide to kick us out!

Our beloved but dangerous teddy bear will be there to silence those attached to a pure halloween themed night.

Thanks to Vivian at Particules en Suspension and Cécile at La Bossette for setting the stage.

See you there!

We like to think small is beautiful.

When it comes to music festivals, it means that one attracting about 450 people might be just as exciting as the big guns we all go to throughout the summer.

This is how we ended up designing JVAL festival’s t-shirt, an event organised by two brothers and their friends (notice any similarities?) in the middle of the Vineyards overlooking Lake Geneva. They are now in their fifth year, with two more evenings to go (tonight and tomorrow).

We’ll be there with some friends tonight, what about you?

Cheers!

Hi there,

we hope your summer is as enjoyable as ours. We just did a bit of summer cleaning around our little house and found a couple of collectors’ items we are giving away with orders placed on the eshop.

Read all about it here… we might even add more gifts to your bag if your order exceeds expectations!

Take care!

It’s getting hot in here!

Time to celebrate? well, anything really: Summer and his pal Apollo,  the upcoming music festival season, or the end of your last exam session - you choose.

It’s not “what” that matters, it’s “how”.

For instance, we thought we’d release a couple of sweet new products on the eshop!

Read about it all in our latest newsletter.

Well, enjoy now.

Cheers!

HOME by photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand will be released this friday and it looks like it’s going to be visible from almost anywhere on the globe.

Have a look at the trailer here. And at the whole thing on youtube this friday.
