New Balance Pub Pack

Since they first started appearing on all the usual blogs at the start of the year, the New Balance ‘Pub Pack’ has easily been the most talked about none collaborative New Balance of the season. Enough of a themed collection of trainers that it feels both special and quirky, but subtle enough that it doesn’t feel cheap and tacky.

So with a great concept, and great colourways, they throw great craftsmanship into the mix by ‘brewing’ them in the UK. Each of the three pub themed trainers comes with a New Balance 576 beer towel and coaster.

Due out on the 03/09/10 and with strictly limited numbers make sure you grab a pair before it’s last orders at the bar!
Puma Suede Classics

Dropping online and in store on the 28th of this month are two great new Suede classics colourways, both as strong as each other. First up is a great bright green and twilight blue colourway, and the second is the burnt orange and royal blue. Both made with premium suedes, and comes with lace flip of their complimentry form stripe colours. With the gold foil puma logo on the sides, and strong white midsoles, these are some of the most eye catching Puma’s we’ve seen in a long time. Limited numbers, so don’t miss out!
Wrangler Blue Bell

This is something out of the blue (no pun intended), while we all now how great the Blue Bell line is by Wrangler, a black jean that has turned our heads.
This is the first time Wrangler has produced an exposed selvedge black denim jean and numbers are very limited.
In an ‘Anti Fit’ the Eddy in its clean water wash has taken us back, loose around the upper with a taper strong enough to notice but not overly aggressive the fit is great.
The denim is a heavy weight (compared to the usual at least) Japanese Karabo fabricated 14.5oz right hand twill. As you will be able to see the weave is compact but with a bold structure. Variances are kept to a minimum on such a short loom denim giving strength but allowing the unique character to flourish with wear.
All the expected detailing is present and correct, leather patch, concealed back pocket rivets, rear pocket semi lining, sail cloth front pockets, down facing yoke, non scratch copper rivets, the list goes on.
This is the best black selvedge jean we have seen in some time, take a look at the Blue Bell Eddy for your selves.
Y.M.C.

We’ve had a fresh delivery from Y.M.C. and we wanted to show you our personal favourite, the fairisle cardigan. Made up of a rainbow of merino wool, arguably the best sheeps wool available, softer than your average wool, and actually helps maintain body temperature without over heating. Knitted in a fairisle pattern, creating a strikingly bold and technically great cardigan. Details like the chunky wide collar and wooden buttons add understated style to this piece. Check out the Y.M.C merino cardigan here
Adidas Originals Rising Star

The 1984 classic thats still going strong, and set to make a big impact on 2010 is the Rising Star from Adidas. A great Adidas runner shape on a sole unit with interchangable midsole pads, allowing for a custom fit, with you dictating the amount of absortion.
This colourway is sure to turn heads, either in the city or country, the premium buttery leather upper, with a great contrast of colours, from the subtle chalk and grey, to the loud blue and yellow. Embossed patterns, hidden tongue pockets, contrasting extra midsole pads, detailed lace tips and innersole graphics are just some of the amazing attention to detail thats gone into this shoe, take a closer look here
Eighties Casuals Rambler jacket.

It may technically be summer time, however, one of the most essential items this season is a jacket. This one from Eighties Casuals, is perfect for all summer shower occasions. Light weight shell jacket, with air vents to stop you from over heating, pack away hood to stop your hair getting wet, and all the attention to detail that we’ve come to expect from Eighties Casuals, metal press studs, leather arm logo. Check out the blue one here and the green one here
Nike QuickStrike double!

Its always a good day for us when we receive a Nike QuickStrike shoe, today however is a little bit more special, as we have two! Two very different trainers but equally as great.

First off we the Lunar Air 180, a subtle hybrid of the classic. Super
light weight shoe due to Nikes new Torch mesh, stitch-less seamed upper, and combining a Lunar midsole at the front, with the back of the classic 180 silhouette. In white with bright pink and pops of ultramarine blue really make this one stand out! Check them out here

Secondly we have the most luxurious Air Force One we’ve seen in a long time. Hamptons edition, buttery soft calf leather upper, perf mid section, inside out perf leather sole, even the innersoles are leather! Amazing attention to detail, from the satin finish tongue, Hamptons map on the clear outer-sole, and ‘Good Ground’ printed on the innersole. Check them out here
Adidas Originals Vintage Footwear

The first parts of the Adidas Autumn Winter selection have arrived.
We have to start with the Micropacer C.S. G16735. In a striking black/grey/white/yellow make up the materials used are probably the best we’ve seen on a ‘pacer for some years. While very bold in its design once you have them on your feet it completely makes sense, take a look at the Micropacer G16735
If you’re looking for something a little subtler then we have two new styles that could be right for you. The Passline and the Resplit.
The Resplit takes the samba sole unit and the Army BW upper and fuses them to make a something that is more than the sum of its parts. Very simple colourways and detailing that sits with the shoe rather than fights against it. Take a look at the Resplit black and the Resplit legacy.
Next up is a casual shoe, yep, it is a shoe and not one from the archives but one that could easily sit amongst those hallowed shoes. The Passline has a heavy canvas with suede upper in simple, clean lines. Ideal when you don’t need anything too complicated to ruin what else you’re wearing. A no nonsense sole unit and minimal branding make this an everyday winner for us. Take a look at the Passline black and Passline legacy.
Oh, and both the Passline and the Resplit come with alternate laces, should you need them….
New Fred Perry Polo's now in stock

The classic Fred Perry Polo is pretty hard to beat but our latest additions come pretty close. The same great shapes and cuts but with the smallest of changes just to give a little variance.
The tattersall m6268 polo in green has a standard collar with the famous tattersall check to the plackett and inner yolk. While the M6267 in blood red or black just carries a tartan check to the inner yolk.
The white m6273 trims the collar of the standard issue polo back to give a tighter looking neckline while the m6269 in light blue has the tip of the collar pegged right back in to a gentle arc.
All in all a welcome addition for those needing a subtle difference in their polo shirt with the assurance that the Fred Perry brand brings.
