Casio G-Shock GW-3000BB Leatherback

My University days were spent frequenting the streets of Leeds and HIP Store was where a decent majority of my quarterly student loan spendings went on the day they came in. It is therefore nice to see they are getting some major exclusives instore and getting the love they deserve. Which brings me to the tasty treat above. In collaboration with G-Shock fashion photographer and editorial contributor to Men's File Magazine Nick Clements has created the GW-3000BB Leatherback. The inspiration for this unique timepiece comes from early aviation instruments worn by flight crew on the wrist. The detailing is superb with a full grain leather strap and snap over casing. The strap is slightly longer than a standard wrist strap, for a proper fit over a bomber jacket or flight suit. I think this is an amazing well thought out and executed project, they will be limited to 50 pieces and available at HIP, and also I just found out at the Garbstore now...

Master-piece x Casio G-Shock

Master-piece so consistently deliver in the accessories department it is no surprise for me to already be obsessing over their new collection. This is the first of two items I am currently coveting but these are by no means the only great pieces in their extensive collection. The watch is based on the classic DW-5600 G-Shock and produced with an understated stealth-black face and a negative-red display. The watch has discreet yellow accents and a master-piece branded case-back, completing this refined example of the brand’s considered design. Yes it is just a black watch but I cannot convey enough how brilliantly subtle this watch is, I truly love this, available now via oki-ni...

G-Shock x In4mation Salmon GLX5600

Can't help but love this watch, from a little research seems like these babies have been around for a while but have just hit Oki-Ni on a limited release...

Collete x Everything

Collete in Paris apart from being one of the koolest shops ive ever been in is collabing with so many companies in the next few weeks it makes it hard to keep up and keep the text down so here goes:

First we have the Uniqlo pop up store inside Collete which currently is stocking a ltd collection dubbed with the signature logo 'From Tokyo to Collete' while stocks last.
The next two collaborations are with 2 watch companies at both ends of the scale, for street style the B-store x Casio G-shock for Collete which offers up 2 designs one in gingham and the other in the polka dots synonymous with the parisian store. The Bamford & Sons Rolex collaboration which is definately my favourite which brings together the classic Milgauss model in black with the Collete blue face.
Finally we have the Timberland x Collete work boot classic but not anything to shout about in my opinion
Find them all at Collete release dates vary throughout September...
