Vintage Sighting #2 - The Cool Kids & F.A.I.F

Back with another vintage sighting! However, this one is a present day sighting. I was scrolling down one of my favorite hip-hop blogs illRoots and decided to look through their archive of "The Cool Kids". If you've read this blog any time from the start in '08 to the present, you know that im a huge fan of them. This time, I saw a picture of them that I'd seen numerous times but this time, I saw it in a different way.

^^^ This is the picture I'm referring to.

I found myself staring at Chuck's vintage Pistons jacket. As I was looking at the jacket I was 99% sure I could find it on arguably the most famous vintage store F As In Frank...

I WAS RIGHT!!!!!!!

I looked at both pictures back and forth to see if it was in fact the same jacket and it was! Im almost sure that Chuck bought his jacket from F.A.I.F because Ive seen a video of Mikey riding around with the owners of the store about a year ago when I first saw this picture

Unfortunately, this jacket is sold out but you can hit them up on twitter here

Next sighting coming soon!!!

Vintage Sighting - Mary J. Blige & T.S.P.V

I decided to switch up the new feature on TKB. Since Im interested in vintage urban gear as a whole & not just snapbacks, I wanted to change "Snapback Sightings" to "Vintage Sightings". It will still be the same but I'll post vintage gear instead of just hats.

LETS GET INTO IT...

Recently I watched Vh1's "40 Greatest Yoi! MTV Raps Moments" and I they showed a clip of Mary J. Blige making her MTV debut alongside Grand Puba who began rapping before he brought Mrs. Blige out.

As he was rapping, I noticed he had a visor that looked extremely familiar. After about 10 seconds, I realized that I saw that Fila visor on Top Shelf Premium Vintage a while back.
