Despite the recent Hypebeast article that paints a picture of Brasil as relatively ignorant in terms of streetwear culture, the recent 3rd edition of the URB Tradeshow in Sao Paulo definitely proves otherwise. In this video you see an organized and progressive streetwear/music/skate scene that you’d swear was shot at Agenda if everyone wasn’t speaking Portuguese. Trust us, Brasil is a good look.

Agenda NYC popped off at the Javitz Center on Monday and Tuesday this week and Timbo Baggins was on hand to pick his show favorites from Burton, Leica, House of Marley, adidas Skateboarding and G Pen. Check it out and more on the latest dose.

With the SIA tradeshow coming up we’re getting super excited to pack up and spend some quality time in Denver. There’s lots of reason we like Denver, the least of which is certainly not because weed is legal! Did that sentence even make sense? Anyway, while we were planning out our trip we came up on this pretty funny story about some of Denver’s little known facts, which we encourage you to check out on Boston.com. Ps it’s funnier if you’re high.

While tradeshows are par for the course in the US and Europe, in emerging markets they are a big deal because they represent new closer ties with the global action sports industry. Even just a few years ago you might have had to get premium skate and snowboard gear from a re-seller that bought the stuff retail in the US and charged 5 times the price back home That’s why Brasil is stoked on their first ever skate and lifestyle specific tradeshow Urb. Happening on October 30 and 31, Urb has everyone from Levi’s to Toy Machine to Anti-Hero to Sk8mafia plus Brasilian brands like Future, Live, and Vida Libre. If you’re in Sao Paulo for Halloween, hit it up! Full info is here.

This has got to be one of the best methods of hyping up a tradeshow booth we’ve ever seen. Forget a corny flyer about free beer at 5:30, the dudes from Mollusk Surf Shop made a road trip video that makes you actually want to go check them out. Well done. Agenda hits Long Beach July 25 and 26.

Brixton’s newest collection includes some dope upgrades to their hats like new colorways and five-panels. We got the chance to swing by the booth at Agenda and bring you a sneak peek of the goods. Hit the jump to peep a look at the new line.

Last week we partnered with Mountain Dew to host a media lounge at Agenda NYC 2013. With it being the 10th anniversary of the tradeshow we invited some of our homies to the lounge to talk about their brands, new projects, and the importance of having a presence at the Agenda Tradeshow. Our editor Brad Clarke held down the interviews and first up was Mega from Blackscale. Check out what he had to say and stay tuned for more interviews from Agenda.

DGK welcomed Keelan Dadd into the Pro ranks during Agenda Long Beach with a party that was hosted by Stevie Williams and special performance from The Game. Enjoy.

One of the best booths at Agenda this year had to be Chrome’s custom bag project where a talented Chrome seamstress walked you through picking out materials and then assembled a bag of your creation. Our own Tim Brodhagen was lucky enough to land one which you can see after the jump.

Agenda Tradeshow hit NYC this week giving us a look at the new product for Summer 2013 right in the middle of Soho. It also brought some dope events that included Supra’s NYC one year anniversary party with DJ Premier, The Hundreds pool tournament and a screening of the Bones Brigade documentary hosted by Vans. You already know we hit them all so click the jump to see what went down. Photos by Brad Clarke.
