Hey everyone,

As you may all know we just acquired an office space/design studio and we’re super excited for all the possibilities that the new space brings us. We finally got out of my living room, have real desks and actual seating instead of sitting on the floor. It couldn’t have come at a better time since we’re in design mode and are planning our attack for launch. Jaymer took some great pics of the progress and you can find those after the jump.

Also, I’d like to take the time to send everyone a big THANK YOU for all their congratulatory messages after our announcement yesterday. Every one of you keep us moving forward everyday in this crazy hustle we’re in. Thanks for the support and keep your eyes and ears peeled, the best is yet to come.

The design team met up yesterday and had a great kick-off meeting for the upcoming season. Nothing fuels creativity more than some decent Thai food and a great discussion on inspirations. We’ve got a great deal of work ahead of us, but the crew is more than ready. More pics after the jump.

Last Friday we had the pleasure of meeting with Joe Claus, a photographer based in San Jose. He has an ongoing series of photographs, called “My Neighbors”, archiving small business owners in San Jose. He happened to email us about taking Jaymer’s and my photograph for his series. As you can see we were more than happy to. Joe was also able to connect with PLSTK’s own, local business owner, and full time hustler, Dandiggity. Check out the rest of the series here..

His show will exhibit at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. library next year and it’ll also be in a book which will be archived at the History of San Jose museum.

Thanks Joe!

I know it’s been a long time since we’ve had any updates on the blog or even on the site, but it’s been a crazy year so far. Big changes have passed and even more exciting changes ahead of us. We will be taking down the PLSTK site for now until we unveil a new site along with a relaunch of the brand. For now, you can keep track of us and find updates here on our blog. Stay tuned.
