It's cool to get away from the basic hues and go with something fresh for the summer!
Very dope indeed!

National Champs!



My homey, Joe Haden, came thru Waldorf and copped a smooth Parish jacket. UATW is pretty much the only place the homey shops when he comes home. You might remember Joe from pretty much DEMOLISHING Oklahoma's receivers in the National Championship game...



And than...

Vans GO HARD!



Vans Japan go's in with this pair of Goatskin Sk8 Hi's! This is one of three premium colors released with this pack.

Meet the Office: Kevin Mein



Blog Ambassador Kevin...Mein might I add!

I've been working with UATW for 5 years now, and it's safe to say I've learned tons!!
I look forward to working with aesthetics as much as possible...mannequins, store layouts, visual
merchandising, styling...whatever I can do. Knowledge is key when it comes to the fashion industry...
knowing what's next and building your own personal competitive advantages is a must!! I ultimately want to start my own retail operation. something small and cool...I learn from the best!! I think anything worth having is worth working hard for..all or nothing. At 19, I know my direction, so it's possible. Look forward to the Blog post...see the artsy side of UATW....and how we simply have fun doing it!

Meet the Office: Starr - 305



I'm Starr....I've been working for Up Against the Wall since October 2004. JD was actually one of my managers when I was a sales associate. At first UATW was just a fun job for a 16 year old but became something more. I've met some of my best friends here (Gigi and Kevin at 24, Tyisha and Donte at 1, and MISS LISA COOKE-The best DM EVA). I have hilarious stories about shoplifters, celebrities, and customers, and wonderful memories. I've definetly learned more here then I think I did at Art Institute. I feel like UATW has all the current clothing that you would have to get either online or at a whole bunch of places all in one store and in a CRUNK environment! Everyone's swag is different and personalities are great and the music is bumpin-(pentagon knows what's up). Im obsessed with clothes and not just mine but for any guy I date as well. I am now the store manager at the Miami store and I am doing my best to represent the DMV. So BIG THANKS to everyone who sends me customer requests; you will always have a place to stay when you come to the 305!

Meet the office: Abby - Lynnhaven


Hmmm. a little something about myself eh? Welll....I made this awesome vegan pasta before I came to work today and I'm stoked to eat it later. :]

I am EXTREMELY passionate for animal rights and anything having to do with animal rights. I have been vegetarian for 11 years, and vegan for 5. I do not use or buy any products that were and are tested on animals ( and believe me, there are ALOT) I belong to numerous animal right organizations as well. I am eventually going to go to school to become a wildlife rehabilitationist.

umm..I love to go on road trips, even if it's just to Richmond. I am a huge kid at heart, I love stuffed animals, cupcakes with sprinkles, going to the Children's Museums, big plastic little kid rings, playing hide and seek...you get the idea. :]

I also enjoy reading a whole bunch, I am currently reading American Psycho, I heard it's wayyy better than the movie, which is going to be hard to top!!

Flight School...



That's what I call Lynnhaven's dynamic staff!
PEEP THE PHOTOS.. Richelle and Chelsea are the best!
Complete dopeness!

Brand Spotlight: Iron Fist



The brand is taking a new innovative approach to every new season. Well known for quality products and exceptional artwork, they claim the brand is not for everyone and that is the way they want it. They want their customer to be a person with their individual style. Here is four of the new tee's. We also have cargo shorts!!! Check us out @ PG Plaza!

-Doyle



OUR STORY
The idea started amongst two friends Mike van Senus and Travis Anderson. With a long history in skateboarding, surfing, art, music and street culture the crew wanted to create clothing they couldn't find anywhere else.
Born out of simplicity and Iron Fist's first retail outlet, the trunk of Travis' car the brand was well received by a then starving youth culture who were bored of traditional action sports and streetwear brands.

Perhaps Iron Fist's key asset is its honesty and intention, real clothing made by real people. No market strategy and no big budget, Iron Fist starting selling by itself on product and artwork alone.
We wanted to return to the energy and brand attitude of the rebellious years, when skateboarders lived on the streets and mohicans would get you kicked out of Disneyland.
