Swedish headphone brand Jays are no strangers to success with numerous amazing headphones on the market but with the release of the new a-Jays Four they have excelled themselves once again. You may recognise the anti-tangle flat leads from the Beats by Dr Dre collection but they were pioneered by Jays.

Ace Hotel x Converse Chuck All Star 'Bosey'


The Ace Hotel chain has become somewhat of a phenomenon since they opened their first hotel in Seattle in 1999. The brilliant interior decor and reasonable pricing has made them a hive for the creative and as such a go-to brand for collaborations. This pair of Chucks is not only becoming the footwear of the staff at all Ace Hotel locations but has been made available to the public in a limited 300 pair run. With wax canvas uppers, gum soles with ribbed toe protection and bosey boot grommets these are a beast when it comes to detailling and I can't wait for mine to arrive...
