Sneakersnstuff x Converse 'Lovikka' All Stars


Definately one of the most genuine colloborations this year, scandinivian retailer Sneakersnstuff join forces with Converse to bring a very Swedish take on the Chuck Taylor All Star. Inspired by the tradional lovikka mitten type glove, the off white knitted premium wool upper looks perfect against the bright coloured tassles and outersole accents, the end of the year is bringing some real highlights. Available from 3rd December...

Mjolk SS11 Collection


Austrian brand Mjolk are well known for mixing vibrant colours,textures and patterns with classic cuts and tailoring. This collection is no different and although some of the outfits are obviously more catwalk than casual the colours combinations and cuts are spot on...




Nike 6.0 'Delorean Dunk'


I've enjoyed watching the rise of the Nike 6.0 series from a wayward start to really finding their feet so to speak. Although this release has a somewhat Nike SB feel to it, a tried and tested usually works. And whats not to like mixing argueabely the most well known sneaker sillouete with argueably the greastest movie car of all time, the brushed aluminium finish and light cluster inspired sole are fresh...

Haroshi x Nike Dunk


Although this colourway would be awesome this is not a real Nike Dunk, compiled from many layers of recycle skateboards from the Nike SB team and is the work of Hiroshi a Japanese artist who is famous for his 3D works made up from this material. The beauty of the piece also comes from the natural curvature of the decks which matches the natural curve of the sole...

Nike Gyakusou LTWT Stretch Jacket



After showing you the Nike Gyakusou Zoom Spider TT+ a few days ago we get a look at the LTWT stretch running jacket. Probably one of the best examples of fashion and functionality and definately my favourite collection of the year, really strong both technically and aesthetically...

Swizz Beats x Reebok


No doubt the rumours regarding the Air Yeezy 2 won't have passed you by this week, but I feel the Swizz Beats x Reebok collaboration is much more worthy of some limelight seeing as the former is no doubt going to be overhyped for the next 12 months. These carry some definate shape characteristics of the original Yeezy but the materials and colorways on this preview look very good indeed, it will be interesting to see how these are receieved...

Mark McNairy has been making huge moves this year, his shoes have literally been flying off the shelves. Now it seems he is in full take over mode bringing us this faux wool lined trench coat (I think its more a parka but whatever). Simple and plain this is one of the best outerwear pieces ive seen this season...


Supreme Tees


Although over the last couple of years there has been significant negativity with Supreme NY's releases due to so called sellout collaborations. But there is still something classicly New York about a nice simple Supreme Tee, head over to Kopbox for one of the best selections of classics...

Nike x Size? Air Stab


The Air Stab was originally released in 1988 as a high end road running shoe keeping your feet straight on uneven surfaces. Since its release it has been one of the most sought after cult classics out there. Originally sampled in 2005 as part of Size's 'Neon Pack' it never saw a release, until now. These will fly off the shelves with only 400 pairs in existence, available Dec 3rd exclusively at Size?...

Winter is well and truly in full swing, and I think I have found the perfect accompaniment for any winter outfit, these burnt orange fleeces from Reigning Champ are a great winter colour and will look great with a pair of dark jeans. They also have an awesome worn in feel to them to keep you comfy and warm, available now via The Bureau...

Mita x Adidas Rod Laver


After my recent posts on the Stan Smith it seems fair to give some love to the Rod Laver model also a classic in its own right. No stranger to big brand collaboration Japanese brand Mita put there winter touch onto this pair with a simple buttery suede and gum sole number. These hit Mita on the 13th but expect them to come to the UK towards the end of the year...

Colorware Grip for iPad


To be honest im not the biggest convert when it comes to the iPad, and one of the flaws I had always advocated was that the size and shape made it quite clumsy. It seems Colorware have completely solved this problem, I think this is a great product and although the price tag is somewhat steep the materials and product are truely brilliant...

Nike ACG Lava Dunk


Previewed in my feature at the end of September the Nike ACG Lava Dunk sees its release today. To say the Dunk is a heavyweight would be an understatement and no matter what Nike throw at this model it delivers time after time. I really like the boot-like midsole and ripstop nylon on the upper and of course the d-ring lacing system this is a seriously nice piece for the winter, available now at Foot Patrol...
