Tras Fortfast WTF se esconde Fausto Climent, un intrépido youtuber de veinte años cuyas preguntas ponen en un aprieto a más de uno. En su canal podremos descubrir vídeos en los que no duda en poner a prueba a jóvenes, y no tan jóvenes, con preguntas de cultura general.

El pasado 3 de enero Fortfast nos visitó para hacer una presentación informal de su libro Reflexiones junto a algunos de sus fans. La reunión tuvo lugar en el showroom de nuestras oficias haciendo de el encuentro un evento de lo más familiar.

We did a photoshoot with our friends and official Crossfit retailer in Barcelona FITTEST FREAKEST. Workout & Sweat in style with the most relevant brands, limited editions and overseas product that you won't find in any other shop. If you're in the city and you're a maniac of the latest releases and gear, this spot is a MUST.

You don't know what Crossfit is? Briefly, it's a high-intensity fitness programme incorporating elements from several sports and types of exercise that's booming since the last 5 years. If you're bored of the standard gym sessions, you should try at least once. Usually it comes with a very friendly environment of fitness freaks that will help you endure and perform even better.

Ok, summer is almost over, but maybe you’re still waiting to go on vacation or you could be already back in town after spending your holidays during and you’re looking for some “summer vibes”. Summer never lasts enough, right?

No problem, we are here for you: what could you use better than a good movie to jump in the summer feelings you’re looking for?

We chose ten movies that you could appreciate when in need of “even more summer”, trying to avoid the thought of “brace yourself: Autumn/Winter are coming”.

Prepare some pop corn or some chips, get a beer or a soda and turn the air conditioning on: are you ready to feel the summer?

 

1. Unrelated

Maybe it’s because it was filmed in Italy, maybe the story, maybe both reasons… but this movie will make you feel like summer never really ends… metaphorically speaking.

 

2. Y Tu Mamà También

Mexico, two friends, a woman older than them and an irresistible sexual attraction: if you like happy endings this is not the movie for you… or maybe not, who knows?

 

3. Summertime

We’re talking about a movie that made the history: have you ever seen this amazing “Summer madness”? Nowadays you can define it “vintage”, but it’s really magic.

 

4. Lilo & Stitch

 It’s always the right moment to watch a Disney movie, right? This one is perfect to be watched during the summer and remember: “Ohana means family, family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten”!

 

5. The Parent Trap

 If you’ve never seen this movie maybe you’re very young or you don’t like Lindsay Lohan. If you’ve already seen it you know that it will be amazing to start a rewatch… right now!

 

6. (500) Days of Summer

 “This is a story of boy meets girl, but you should know upfront, this is not a love story”. You can’t watch this movie without feeling your stomach aching a little bit…

 

7. The Endless Summer

 Summertime is perfect to go surfing, right? Let’s follow this two guys all around the world and you’ll feel the sea on your skin.

 

8. Now and Then

 Do you know how flashbacks work, don’t you? This movie is a giant flashback, with all the feelings that it could bring… are you ready to look back with the protagonists?

 

9. Wet Hot American Summer

 On Netflix you now can find the sequel of this movie (and the prequel too, if you’re interested), but this movie, starting with its title, is a must watch in this season!

 

10. L'Auberge Espagnole

Barcelona, young people coming from all over the world and living under the same roof and a lot of things going on between them… this is a movie that could be very revealing, especially if you’re thinking of going on Erasmus.

 

Do you have the perfect movie to enjoy your summer even more, even when you’re not in the mood to go out with your friends and stay far from your sofa?

Which one of these movies do you prefer or which one do you think is not the one good for you to feel the summer on your skin without having to sweat?

Let us know: tweet us, write a comment on Facebook or send us a DM on Instagram… we’re so curious to hear from you!

 

 

Hey Ho friends attending Punk Rock Holiday this 2017. Each year you've kept asking for more and more. That's why we have plenty of surprises for you. 😃

1. ACOUSTIC STAGE

We are hosting the acoustic stage with plenty of kickass bands that will provide a different and closer approach to all the audience. Don't miss bands like Thrash Boat, Get Dead or The Generators at the American Socks stand.

EXTRA: Sing your song at the Karaoke each day at 20:45.

 

2. WTF PARTIES (Dj Set)

Have you ever heard about the WTF Parties? It's the craziest and weirdest party in Barcelona. Fireworks and FX with the best music. You'll be able to dance, jump and go crazy on Tuesday 8th after the Pennywise gig. See you there 😎

 

Punk Rock Holiday is one of these festivals you need to attend once in your lifetime. It's unique placement, good taste of music and extremely limited number of tickets on sale are the wonders that make the whole experience unique.

The American Socks team has been involved since 2015 and we decided to team up together to release an exclusive & limited edition sock. 

Only available to buy at the festival. Be fast or you'll leave without the best piece of merchandise EVER.

Are you looking for the perfect book to read while going on vacation?

Perfect: we don’t care if you’re going to the beach, if you’re going hiking in the mountains or visiting a big city all around the world. We have the perfect suggestions for your summer readings.

Of course, we need you to be very open and very curious about what a book can hide behind its cover: maybe it will make your vacation unique… or maybe not, who knows?
Why don’t you find out?

 

1. Looking for Alaska – John Green

This book was published 12 years ago, but it’s still so actual that it can hurt. Don’t think this is a book for “youngsters”: it could be perfect for young adults, but for adults too… you’re never too old to try different things.

 

2. Six of Crows – Leigh Bardugo

If you like close third-person viewpoints this book is perfect for you: there are six different characters who are narrating the whole story, that takes place in a magical universe, where you can get lost also in the second chapter of this duology, Crooked Kingdom.

 

3. Eleanor and Park – Rainbow Rowell

Do you love 80’s music? Are you in comic books and do you like reading about original love stories? Perfect: this is a piece of advice for you. Everything changed on a school bus for the main characters of this book… everything could change for you wherever you’ll be reading.

 

4. The Girl on the Train – Paula Hawkins

This is an amazing thriller: maybe you have heard of it because it became a movie, but since I read the book I chose not to watch the movie ‘cause everyone kept telling me that the movie wasn’t good enough to cope with the book. Believe me: you must read it.

 

5. IT – Stephen King

Soon there will be a reboot of this one piece of horror history: haven’t you read it yet? Now you have another reason more to read it: don’t you know that “the book is always better than the movie”? How could you decide if this is the case of this new movie if you haven’t read it?

 

6. Nineteen Minutes – Jodi Picoult

 

Sometimes we all need to cry a little bit, being moved by a movie, a song or a book. This Jodi Picoult’s novel is made to make you think and maybe to make you cry a little too. This book is 10 years old now, but school shooting, unfortunately, is a problem that still afflicts US.

7. Dark Matter – Blake Crouch

“Are you happy with your life?” How would you answer to this question? The main character of this book lives an adventure that literally changes his life. Maybe this book won’t change your life, but it will help you think a lot about your priorities and your choices, we’re sure about it.

 

8. Beautiful Ruins – Jess Walter

The novel is a social satire which explores human nature and satirizing the Hollywood culture that is at the center of the book: which season better than summer is done to indulge in gossips and small talks?

 

9. The House of the Spirits – Isabel Allende

This book is something special: it starts telling you the story of the Trueba family, spanning four generations and tracing the history of Chile, but it will end telling you something about yourself that you didn’t realize till that moment. Allende’s pen is magical and her first novel is something you have to read, at leats once in your life.

 

10. Nick and Norah’s infinite playlist – Rachel Cohn & David Levithan



This is a book for someone who still believes in love, even if love hasn’t shown him/her lot of mercy… the novel gives you hope, but above all, gives you amazing music suggestions and some quotes that you’ll be able to use in real life for the upcoming years. I’m telling you this, cause it happened to me, and it still happens…

 

If you’re going to read one (or more) of the books we suggested you… let us know on Twitter/Facebook or Instagram: we are waiting for your feedbacks!

That’s what happens when the world of old school American Socks meets the music world of Fanatic Guitars. Pure style!

Last day we went to the best guitar shop in Barcelona to have a photoshoot in their warm and cozy place with our mate and musician Gerard Morell.

Spent the evening checking out guitars while discussing the best spots in the shop to take the sickest shots.

Grab a guitar and reach your maximum rocker style with our black-in-black mid-high socks!
