Bryant Randolph presents the line!
I've been slacking for a while this year, and I think it's time to turn over a new leaf. I am or will be a changed man. For those who know me, understand what I mean.
Original Concept Designs is a new way I can show case my art. The name is not a brand, but just like it states, Thats what I'm doing. Concept work thats originally done.
Before the new year, a couple of projects I will be working on will range from custom designed skate boards to a series of custom New Era leather fitted. Some of my work will be for sale, but no price will be presented. Tell me what it's worth. I need the feed back. How much would one pay for one of a kind original from Me.
I do this for the love, not the money. I simple love the arts. I rarely paint on canvas, and to be honest I havent done so is years. I look at the world to be my canvas.
Going up in the City, help feed my interest in graffiti. I know most of the names/tags/posted ups/bombs in Philadelphia. I know these writers not personal (some I do) but artisticly. I myself see graffiti in a different way. In high school, I created my own style of mixing the tradition rules of painting real objects, with graffiti influence and a Comic book rendition of lines. This meaning, most of work consisted of personified real objects, rendered in detailed, but still having a black outline.
I paint on Shirts, Shoes, Sneakers, Boots(check out the new style of customization)
Hats, Bats, Hoodies, Brushes...more projects in the making...

Every Cap tells a story
Yo wassup. This is "B" also known as Bryant. I will be posting some stories from time to time, letting my thoughts be known...I will mostly be talking about hats. I go far and beyond to find nice headwear. It's really isnt about how much you have, but more over your williness to spend,and who and where to go to. I live is the great city of Philadelphia.I live Three hours away from New York city, and a river apart from New Jersey. I know my way around, but I dont drive. I go far at times, spending countless hours on the city's transportation systems...I meet lots of people and make a couple of new friends...is it worth it...you tell me...I will be posting my daily travels to finding great hats, so get ready and take notes...it's an art to finding the best hats...please, I know What I'm talking bout!
They call me Hat Man!
For those that don't really know me. Whats good? I am Bryant Randolph. I love the inner city street life and the influences that comes from the struggle. I have a couple of addiction...but for the most part, I'm a little fan crazied about New ERA Caps. The collection is well over 30 some, fitteds now. But no worries. It'll keep growing. I do this, not to impress nor for the means of showing off. I simply love wearing hats. The art, the design, every square inch I ador. The materials used, the designer, all questions I research and study. My needs to collect is feed by my williness to never settle for the norm. I only strive for the best. I respect the craft, and love the work...if there are others like me...lets talk...whats good? again, I am Bryant Randolph.

I started really paying attention to footwear when I was 17. I was playing Varsity basketball at my high school, and the AJ XIX dropped a few months earlier. One could say now, that them going for 100 bucks on the sales rack was an easy cop. But my money wasnt that nice yet. I needed some dope kicks that I can ball in and still rep nicely for my team. I worked at a mall 20 minutes outside of Philly. I knew people. I knew the right people. My man hooked my up with some 94 Barkleys, half price. Them CB34s were the truth. Nice fit, easy to roc on and off court, if i decided to...I balled hard. Played rough. My kicks took a beaten. After that year, I graduated and took a year off from school. My barkleys were long gone, but not forgotten. I cop two more pairs that new year. Soon enough I was rocking all the colors, and needed more. I was still working at the mall, and was asst. manager at the time. It feIt like every check went into my footwear.It was fun to have an arsenal of kicks at my desposal...Everything started with the 94 CB34s...
