Limited edition Chi-inspired designs

Some folks have more energy than a single job can possibly satisfy, which is why Shaq dabbles in law enforcement, and Lindsey Lohan gets weird with dudes and chicks. Working overtime to make ill creations just for you, Oyez Perez.

From a Chi designer who's done everything from video game action for Electronic Arts to Web sweetness for local resto giant Jerry Kleiner, OP's a new solo endeavor boasting an ever-growing stash of ltd-edness covering everything from tweaks on historical NBA moments, to clever spins on local politics, itself usually an exercise in clever spin. Fun starts with a series of hoops-centric prints called "Memories", which playfully distort iconic images -- Jordan's free-throw line dunk expanded to the length of a football field, a Dhalsim-armed Manute Bol rejecting Dr. J, and a super-shrunken Spud Webb throwing down on an impossibly large hoop, which the artist accompanies with a recipe for winning a dunk contest that "serves 1: Dominique Wilkins". Other Chi-tasticness includes "The Mayors", a collection of pillows featuring former city leaders like the late Harold Washington raising his arms in triumph, plus a red and gold t-shirt demanding "No Lights in Wrigley Field", cause then you'd have to actually watch the Cubs play baseball.

New product's dropping every few weeks, and while limited production means things'll sell out quick, any sold out item receiving enough votes'll be brought back, because for all those folks who have more energy than a single job can possibly satisfy, there are those so lazy they must immediately nap on a mayor pillow.
