HEAVY rains didn't prevent fashion enthusiasts to gather for another round of Abreeza Mall's Fashion Forum, held last October 23. From street style to top trends invited guests come in droves as and as everyone else for the launch.
Hosted by my good friend Joey Sy-Domingo, clad in blue blouse and colored spiral overcoat, the forum as expected turned out a success.
Among present in the event was Manic Nightnings' Kat Dalisay & DJ Torch who like any Rastaclat users have continued to spread vibrations through music and art.
Rastaclat had its official launching at Sneaker Club Outlet at the 2nd floor of Abreeza Mall last October 4-5.
Sneaker Club is the only lifestyle shop that carries Onitsuka Tiger, Palladium Boots, Nike Sportswear and Skateboarding (like Stefan Janoski, Paul Rodriguez & Eric Koston) and Sperry Top-Sider in Davao City. Sneaker Club is the only official retailer of Rastaclat in Mindanao.
What is a Rastaclat?
Rastaclat (rah-stuh-claht): the cloth of the righteous. A brand found in Long Beach, California from the roots of the action, sports, arts , music and street culture. Rastaclat is dedicated to the spreading of Positive Vibrations encouraging individual style, a sense of positivity and freedom of expression.
"I would like to extend my gratitude to everyone, for all the support and dedication to the spirit of spreading positive vibrations. I encourage everyone to live the #clatlife by pursuing their own individual style and freedom of expression," young and vibrant Daniel Jo Filipinas, marketing assistant for Athletic Club, said.
History of Rastaclat
For Daniel Kassini Nyaggah, it all started when he was in High School. As a 17 years old, he made his first bracelet when he was waiting for a ride from a friend to go skateboarding and the rest is history.
Finding something valuable to do with his time he began making bracelets until more and more request from friends come along that he knew he had something worth pursuing.
How much is a Rastaclat?
Rastaclat prices ranges from P600-750. As for the limited releases or collection like People Water, it costs P900 onwards. Rastaclat dismisses, patronizing fake and imitations of Rastaclats, since the popular shoelace bracelets are protected by design patents in Europe and Canada and by pending patent application in the US. If it doesn't have a Rastaclat Lion Logo on the product then it's a fake. If unsure of the logo check out the Rastaclat website for product information.
I still have not gone to Nike Athelic Club to avail of my 10 percent discount gift card, I am still thinking of what to buy for myself, yet I already set my eyes on Daily Routine Capsule CTRL, which I may purchase anytime. Hopefully it is still available; Rastaclat is becoming so famous I wouldn't be surprised if it will be out of stock in a week's time.
Thanks to Abreeza Mall's Shim Mori and Cheekie Albay for the invitation and constant reminder.
