Can San Francisco pull the ultimate New Year’s party out of it’s ass? Justice has already been confirm for the ‘Number 9′ NYE event in Chicago. Not to say, Justice can’t pull world wide stops New Year’s Eve like Paul Oakenfold. The Thievery Corporation is on the bill for Sea of Dreams, weren’t they here last month? As with this past year, LA, Las Vegas and New York will leave SF in the dust. Let’s hope not.

As the ‘H’ in this collaborative project, San Franciso’s HUF pay tribute to their city’s railroad history with a canvas upper that homages the hickory striped uniform of the railway worker. Far from workmanlike, this intelligent conceptual approach goes the distance in terms of detail, from the brass eyelets, branded ghilly lacing system and tipped laces, to the all-over lettering on the tongue, completed by a gum outsole. A bold move that pays dividends, the shoe is packaged with a matching striped drawstring bag embellished by six brass badges, making for another classic from a store that truly overstands the collaborative shoe process.

California’s Supreme Court declared gay couples in the nation’s biggest state can marry, it was greeted with tears, hugs, kisses and at least one instant proposal of matrimony. [AP]

////////// This is BIG news in San Francisco and I’m sure tons of celebrating will be going on today and this weekend. It could not be a happy ending for long, ’strange’ people plan to put up a fight in Novembers elections by placing a amendment on the ballot that could crush the legal marriage. I think the people of CA would not let this happen. I hope not.
