We’ve seen plenty of iconic trends echo back into notoriety over the years, and now it’s time for early 00s chunked-up skate shoes to earn an honoured call-back into their rightful place in the limelight. You’ve seen them boxing their way up and down the high streets by now, or leaning up against the grimy brick wall in the smoking area at the back of the local pub. You might even be thinking of picking yourself up a pair – we feel you on that one. But before you do, here’s the historic facts that chronicle the where the why and the how. The height of the chunky shoe era is well underway. Ska ..read more

Spring has sprung and it’s starting to feel good; days are longer, nights are lighter, and there’s a buzz in the air that only a new season can bring. Springtime is all about renewal and change – so, when we think about what we want to breathe new life into, it’s got to be footwear.  With transitional months comes spring showers, so though it’s not quite time to retire those reliant GORE-TEX silhouettes, blue skies are signalling the reach for mules and clogs. We’re big advocates for mules – there’s something for every occasion – camping and post-trail recovery or running quick errands an ..read more

Heralded for being the second Air Jordan created by the architectural mind of Tinker Hatfield, the Air Jordan 4 first graced the court back in ’89 for the NBA’s All-Star game, a game in which MJ went onto score 28 points for the Eastern Conference side – standard procedure from the legend. The ‘Vivid Sulfur’ colourway honours everything that the Air Jordan 4 stands for – a striking, mesh-founded design with unique Winged collars and wavy layer-on-layer leather panelling. A head-turner through and through, with sulfuric elements addressing the lace crown, collar lining, and midsole. Obviously ..read more

One of the many backbones supporting the label’s court-inspired lineage, the Jordan 3 is one of a kind and lifestyle apt. Made in collaboration with MJ, it was the first to have Tinker Hatfield’s name credited as a designer, and it’s of little wonder why this hybrid model is loved and cherished by many. Reminiscent of the OG ‘Black Cement’ colourway, the ‘Green Glow’ iteration keeps simplicity well in mind – but doesn’t forget about its heritage design details such as the elephant print aesthetic, vivid green Jumpman on the tongue, and Visible Air Unit nestled within the midsole which was a we ..read more

It was 2001 when Nike’s ‘Ugly Duckling’ pack first dropped. A strictly Japan-exclusive, as part of the label’s CO.JP series which boasted three Dunk Lows in unique, ‘Ceramic’, ‘Veneer’ and ‘Plum’ colourways. Fast-forward to 2020, and it finally got its revival – this time to a wider audience. But Nike wasn’t finished there, with 2024 seeing yet another release of the highly yearned-after pairs. Lucky us. The ‘Veneer’ colourway opts for a full-suede construction in classic Dunk layering, with each different colour panel hosting a faded vintage aesthetic which is near enough identical to the ori ..read more

The Italians do a great number of things well. Just off the top of our head, a couple of obvious categories stand out – sport and food being the big ones. But it’s their endless domination and sway in the fashion world which is what really piques our fixation. More closely, how that dominance and sway showcases itself throughout the vast topography of streetwear past and present. Sergio Tacchini This is a name that’s forever cemented in the worlds of tennis, fashion, and really just Italian culture on the whole. Sergio Tacchini – belter of a name mind you – won the title of Italian Champion ov ..read more
