Supreme Collection Pt.1





The first time I visited New York, back in 1994, I could only find one independent skate store in the whole city - Supreme.
Having been fortunate enough to re-visit the city, several times each year, I have appeared to accumulated a sizeable collection of random items from the now legendary skate brand.

So what do you do if your Kanye's personal Barber & he hooks you up with a fresh pair of $1140 Louis Vuitton sneakers and a $8250 Louis Vuitton Stephen Sprouse Skateboard ... ? You slip those joints on and pop out a killer Heelflip that's what - Respect to Jasper for making LV fiends the world-over cry!

Mini Top 5 s





Nike Vintage Blazer Hi


Nike Sportswear have just released these stunning "vintage-style" Blazers in premium mottled leather. They also happen to come in my two favorite colourways - White/Red and White/Black. Featuring the original Blazer silhouette, with the fat swoosh, these look a whole lot nicer than the Footlocker retros from 2001.

Ian Brown "Stellify"



Ian Brown may well have been the frontman in one of the greatest short-lived bands ever but his solo work continues to impress me every time he releases new material.

Stonehenge






On the way home from a family function in Downton yesterday I stopped by Stonehenge for the first time in years. Despite the hundreds of tourists it still makes a fascinating place to visit.

New York City - Remembering 9 11

New York City - Home Of The Bravest

Supreme x Vans - Half Cabs





Here's a look at one (of two) styles of the next upcoming collaboration between Supreme & Vans Off The Wall. Taking the classic Half Cab once again, this time with an all-over checkerboard print (which is fine by me!). These remind me of the amazing BMX-Inspired Half Cabs Supreme did a few years ago. Tasty!

I miss ... Tokyo

It's been just over a year since my most recent visit to Japan & I'm really getting itchy feet to get back over there again. Unfortunately, for me, the Yen is so strong against the British Pound right now it looks as though it certainly be a while before I get a chance to take that 12 hour flight once again. Here's a small selection of pics from that last trip...
