Mcqueen Parka
We’ve recently had a great drop of new Mcqueen pieces that we are really into.. Pick of the bunch has to be this incredible olive green quilted lambskin parka. The parka has a detachable Canadian coyote fur trimmed hood and is fully lined in tan lambskin. Amazing!!

Winter warmers
As summer fades away and the weather takes a turn for the worst we’ve put together a mix of our favourite heavy duty pieces to see you through the next couple of months (like this amazing Pendleton & Opening Ceremony Barn jacket). These are clothes we’ve worn, loved and relied on ourselves so we’re pretty confident they’ll look after you for this winter and beyond. Check them out here.

Claremont 56 Middles
We’ve been working closely with London based record label Claremont 56 for a while now, so it seemed only natural to collaborate with them on a special project. We have produced a number of hand crafted record middles with the Claremont logo laser engraved onto the top. The middles are house in a hand woven bag, and accompanied with an exclusive special release 7″.

Margiela Speed Bike Sneaker
Another key Margiela piece recently arrived. Available in 3 colours (black, white and red), I’m loving the Margiela Speed Bike Sneaker. The simple sole, contrasted with the biker-style Velcro strapped upper looks fantastic.
