Good In The Hood!

Being part of the Brown Man Clothing Co. marketing team is such a great job. Not only do I get to drink chai all day with my feet up, but I get to meet amazing people! I recently met Raquel Evita Saraswati, Executive Assistant to Irshad Manji. Not only was she fun to chat with, she had an idea for the Brown Man Clothing Co. line, and here it is; "It's All Good In The Hood". When we heard this suggestion, we were sold right away! It took some time to develop the idea and get it right. We are proud to say, we like it! What we are even more proud of is that we got Raquel's approval! A true honour! Raquel, this one is for you! We expect a picture of you in this one once we ship it out to you.

Miss Arab World - Drool Drool!

Ah, yes, another great relaxing day at Brown Man Clothing Co. Today I thought "I'm in the mood to find the most beautiful women in the world." Of course, that means typing in 'desi women' in any search browser and CAPOW! Hours and hours of just pure, hypnotic enjoyment!

Today, I came across the official Miss Arab World runner ups. I know what you're thinking, "How is that possible?!" Well, let me tell you, personally, viewing the Miss Universe and all, yeah, that gets a bit... how do I say it... *yawn* after awhile, even when Bob Barker was hosting it. But look at these women! You immediately look at their pretty faces instead of their bikini bodies and/or how they look in a ball gown. This is true beauty judging! Miss Iraq! Yummy! Miss Morocco! You're the reason why Hijabis Are Hot! Miss Palestine! Look at that naughty smile! Miss Kuwait! I can't wait!!! I think that the intrigue with these women is the fact that they are modestly dressed and so alluring as opposted to the giraffe giants and swim suits that we are exposed to here in the West. But, that could be me! Who knows!? What do you think?

My Girlfriend Got Married!

I know that this post is long past due but I thought that I was okay with it. But the holidays made me realize that yes, I am still hurting. Of what you may ask? Well, of my dream girl, Elizabeth Hurley getting married to a fellow desi.

What was it Lizzy (as I used to call her, and which she liked I may add), was I not charming enough? Did I not sing hindi songs to you every night as you slept? Did you not enjoy my spicy ginger chicken and freshly baked roti that I slaved away at? Do you know how hard it is to obtain the consistency of the atta and water? Not easy!

My friends have told me to be happy that she has at least kept it in the culture. Yeah, but that does not make me happy. Just the idea that you will be licking the ghee from your fingers from another man's servants roti just makes me ill to my stomach. Just the idea of knowing that you will be re-enacting your favourite Bollywood singing scenes with another man, well Lizzy, I just don't like it.

Well my dear, I hope that you're happy. Yes, your new hubby can give you rubbies and diamonds and anything that your heart desires but will he ever be able to give you a funky one of a kind, custom made Brown Man Clothing Co. shirt just for you? Well, I think not! Until then Lizzy, I will be here... waiting.

*okay, I never really dated her but, if I did, I would still feel the same way!

Brown Man Clothing on BBC Soundcrew 105.5 FM

Yeah, I've got a good gig promoting Brown Man Clothing Co. apparel. On November 12, I got to do a stint on the 'Desi Live' radio show hosted by the BBC Soundcrew.

Jon-E of BBC Soundcrew fuses music genres with indian/desi beats. The result? Funky bhangra beats that you won't hear anywhere else.

Jon-E was really cool and laid back. Greeted me and asked me what I wanted to do. Me? Free creative control? Is this guy awesome or what? I figured for the first time around, let's keep it simple and fun. We chatted about Brown Man Clothing Co., how it started, why Brown Man Clothing Co. is different and how Brown Man Clothing Co. embraces all that is South Asian.

After the history of Brown Man Clothing Co., it was time to give stuff away. After all, we love you in our stuff. Before Jon-E could even get the sentence out of "... we'll take the first caller..." the phone was ringing. We gave away a shirt in less than a minute. Also, just for the fans of BBC Soundcrew, we've given you all a special promotion code when you purchase anything from our website. Simply enter in BBC Soundcrew and you'll get an instant discount off of Brown Man Clothing Co. apparel.

What a great experience it was. In fact, so good, we're thinking of doing it again. Be sure to check back soon to find out when our next stint will be. Until then, keep it Brown!

Brown Man Clothing Co.'s fan base keeps on growing. Not that we're complaining. We recently met up with Rajiv Satyal, a wicked ass funny desi comedian whose comedy is nothing but 'fun sized' (see his show to get the humour!).

Bottom line is that Rajiv likes Brown Man Clothing Co. stuff. He likes it so much that we are the works of collaborating ideas for his Hindu-Muslim Stand-Up Comedy, 'Make Chai Not War'.

Hijab 101

There is nothing that I enjoy more than after a gruelling week of 'working' at Brown Man Clothing Co. is to head down to the local desi area for some great Indian food.

Last week a few of us ventured off to this great little mom and pop shop for some nan and chicken tikka. The owners, typical auntie and uncle ji types welcomed us in the true desi fashion by plopping menus down on our table and leaving us to ourselves for about 10 minutes before anyone came to get our drink orders.

Instead of the typical submissive under the table working FOB server, we were approached by a pretty hijabi young girl by the name of Hina. She took our orders and upon returning, glanced at our designers 'Hijabi's Are Hot!' shirt. We all sat waiting for a response. With a cute innocent smile, she looked at us all and said "I like that shirt!". We invited her to sit with us and to tell us her perception on what it is like being a Muslim woman that wears a hijab.

Hina related stories about being called a 'terrorists wife' or a 'terrorists whore' in university. She told us about having her hijab tugged at during lectures at school. But inspite of all this, Hina does not let any of this bother her. Instead, she uses events such as these to educate people on Islam and what it is like to be a Muslim woman.

"People who do not understand Islam will always have a prejudice against it. They understand that we do not eat pork and that we pray on a carpet," Hina states. "But what they don't understand is that Islam means peace and the religion itself preaches peace. What the Western world knows about Islam is what is broadcasted on television in order to make news worthy news."

Hina did state how she fears for the future for herself as a Muslim woman and if the prejudices that she faces today is a sign of things to come. She did state that she felt some sense of relief that Brown Man Clothing Co. is at least trying to portray women that wear the hijab as beautiful and not as repressed.

After leaving, bellies full, Hina did ask if she could forward an e.mail regarding a news report that she hopes will be a sense of inspiration for all Muslim women and for people who are trying to understand Islam. I promised that I would inclue the article in my blog so here it is. Do let us know what you think.

Only a Desi Family Would Do This!

Are you even surprised that it is a desi family?

I Love Kebobs!

There is never a dull moment at the Brown Man Clothing Co. headquarters I tell you. If someone is not joking around about their wedding proposals or telling a story about an auntie or even making aunties jokes, then something is wrong! Our brains may have been taken out by canabalistic aliens.

Much like every first day of the week, we all gather and sit in our brown board room and get everyone up to speed on what is going on at Brown Man Clothing Co. . Our intern, Kashif, a quiet and rather shy guy, had a funny story to relate that made us all laugh until our bellies hurt. It goes something like this:

Kashif was at his local bank on the weekend and was being helped by an older punjabi lady. As she helped him, she kept on looking at his shirt, Mohinderpal's Kebobs House. Being oblivious to why she kept on starring at him, Kashif thought nothing of it. Just before he left, the nice bank representative stopped him to ask, "... this Kebob House... where is it?" Realizing what she had been looking at now, Kashif smiled politely and answered, "Oh, um, er, it is an old shirt, it is no longer around." With her dismay, she responded by saying, "That is too bad! I love kebobs! And your shirt says that his kebobs were spicy? I love spicy kebobs in my mouth!" With that, Kashif burst out laughing and left. You can tell why.

It just goes to show you, the clothes at Brown Man Clothing Co. are not your typical desi wear.

Got an interesting story to tell while wearing your Brown Man Clothing Co. shirt? Let us know about it. Post it here or send it to us at info@brownmanclothing.com. Until then, drink chai!
