The numbers are officially in. Surf Expo in Orlando, FL had a big show. The biggest in 7 years. Over 14,000 attendees big. Over 2,500 brands big. Tom Brown of 17th Street Surf Shops in Virginia Beach wished he had more time than the two days they planned. “Each buyer came back excited about different aspects of the business. We made a commitment next year that we’ll definitely do three days,” Brown said.

Reef RESRV Footwear
Hi Rhea- I was the footwear design manager overseeing the entire look/feel of the Reef RESRV line as well as the Reef Coastal Cruiser line. I believe we spoke before. Since the release of the RESRV line I have left Reef and gone independent. I was hoping if anyone contacts you with questions or feedback about the footwear line you could give me a heads up and direct them to www.lifeandlimbdesign.com. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanx.

The Surf/Street/Skate Lifestyle at Agenda Huntington Beach

 

Shown editing a sunglasses buy in the Raen Optics booth here, these buyers had fun trying on the prescription glasses too. Their sarcastic conversation went like this, “Do I look smarter? I feel more intellectual.” “Whoa. You’re going to cure cancer.”

Trend Spotting at Agenda

 

O'Neill

What will the kids be rockin' this Fall? If the Agenda trade show is any indication, we’ll be seeing an eclectic mix of ethnic inspiration, '70s music festival attire, a touch of vintage and plenty of floral and leopard prints. These were some of the key trends I spotted at the show which took place on Jan. 6 and 7 in Anaheim, Calif.
