To celebrate their 25th Issue the crew at ACCLAIM Magazine teamed with Iconic Australian Artist Ken Done to design the cover.
With the help of Sydney model Amy Finlayson two Cover were created.
Dubbed the 'Australia Issue' ACCLAIM takes the focus off looking to Europe and America for progressive creative design, art, music and culture, but instead to look in your own backyard and get amongst the vast array of culture and creativity us Aussies have to offer.
Check out this nice little edit of the shoot by Trevor King.
Here at KON apparel we have our ears to the street constantly adapting and moving towards the common goal of providing you with the freshest threads in Australia at affordable prices.
If you take a look on our online store you will notice that we have reduced many of our products prices.
These will be the new price points for all of our future apparel. The materials, printing and manufacturing are still completed to the highest quality you are used to using the same suppliers, makers and printers we used prior to the price change.
KON apparel will only be available on our online store, Bondi Markets on Sundays 10 - 4pm and at handful of select lifestyle stores around Australia.
We will be releasing individual limited edition Tee designs on the regular rather than all together as a collection, as well as rare fabric cut and sew pieces and one-offs.
KON are really excited about these changes and have loads surprises up our sleeves for the coming months.
The online Gallery should be up and running over the next couple of weeks bringing you fresh original artworks from some of Australia's finest up and coming / established artists.
This post was brought to you by the letter P for Peace.
So there beens heaps going on lately here at KON, and across the creative board.

Firstly thank you to everyone who was is involved in putting on the show last week, you know who you are.
Last Thursday King Of Nothing took over Ambush Gallery to celebrate the launch of TOMORROWS NOSTALGIA Summer 2011/12.
It was a great night had by all with crew flooding through the doors to feast their eyes and a variety of original artworks, photography and prints hanging from every inch of wall space.
Here at KON HQ we have been working round the clock to put the finishing touches on what is going to be one hell of a party.
Apart from a visual orgy of original artworks and photography from various KON artists , there will be a contemporary fashion installation catwalk not to be missed. Live skate sessions from the likes of John 'Peewee' Dickenson, RJ Barbaro, and Bill Easterbrook, as well as local Sydney talent.
