For many years the sticker has been an alternative surface of choice for graffiti and street based artists around the world. Not only can you prepare your artwork long before it goes into service, you can also apply them discretely to their new home cleanly without a trace. The Eggshell Sticker changed the game again. With the same ease of application as any other sticker, the eggshell sticker which breaks down into smaller pieces that defy removal (when someone tries to remove them), has become the hard to buff sticker of choice.  The Montana Hologram Eggshell sticker is at the top of the game. With a unique holographic underground for your hand style or artwork, this sticker ticks all the boxes. Its eye catching and stands out amongst other stickers, it looks great, its the perfect size for application to almost anywhere and its hard to remove. Get some inspiration for your next sticker project here: Montana “HELLO MY NAME IS” Sticker – The traditional “H

The expansion of the Indigo Line continues for Autumn/Winter 2019, experimenting with new fabrics and progressive silhouettes for the modern man.     A complete indigo selvage outfit sets the pace for the season ahead with the addition of the double-pleated Balder Pant and the half zip, Navy-inspired Popover Shirt, both available in an 8oz Cloud Selvage Denim. Taking iconic items from the EDWIN mainline, the E-Classic Jacket and wardrobe staple 55 Chino have been reworked in a 7.5oz indigo cotton corduroy bringing a new, yet familiar aesthetic to the collection. The characteristics of the natural indigo fabrics are inbuilt to change, twist and fade, evolving and enhancing the appearance of the garment over time, making herringbone cotton the perfect base for the two-button Don Blazer, Labour Shirt and Universe Pant, accompanied by the raglan-sleeve Meridian Sweater made from recycled yarns. The Indigo Line is completed with the addition of a sel

In our latest Eco and Ethics spotlight we look at one of our newest brands; Barts Accessories . Balancing quality, comfort and sustainability is key when it comes to choosing Barts materials. With those three keys kept in mind, Barts continuously aim to use more and more recycled materials to help reduce the pollution caused by waste. In Barts products, they make use of recycled materials with a certification, such as the Recycled Claim Standard (RCS), the Global Recycling Standard (GRS), or the Recycled Content Standard. A part of their collection is made from Polylana®. The products made of Polylana® contain 60% recycled plastic from modified polyester pallets and rPET flakes, and 40% acryl. The benefits of Polylana® are saving water and energy, reducing waste, producing less CO2 emissions and it can be dyed at a low temperature. Their beanie made of Polylana® saves 5 liters of water and one scarf up to 15 liters. Besides recycled materials, they a

For Autumn/Winter 2019, Carhartt WIP has collaborated with the iconic record label Motown. Arguably the most influential American record label of all time, it is not hyperbolic to say that Motown irrevocably changed the face of music, in such a way that its influence can still be felt today. Indeed, Motown didn’t simply reconfigure what hits of that era sounded like, it played an instrumental role in diversifying the airwaves of US radio stations, bringing us the work of Marvin Gaye, The Supremes, et al. This exclusive capsule collection riffs on imagery and ephemera found in Motown’s archive and back-catalogue. A sateen bomber and rolled beanie both nod to the inimitable style of Marvin Gaye, while the Snake Pit Shirt references the basement recording studio in the home that would come to be known as “Hitsville, USA.” A series of graphic t-shirts and hoodies pay tribute to other aspects of Motown’s history, from the various sub-labels to the 1970 album A Pocket Full of

This week’s edit from Carharrt WIP focuses on garments geared for winter. Robust parkas are presented alongside Carhartt WIP classics,  and styled with understated mid-layers: The Clash Parka, which is based on a classic M-51 fishtail, is layered here with the Volta Vest Liner. Both items are from their ever-evolving Military program, and are offset by pops of orange adorned with their seasonal real tree camouflage, as well as a staple sweatshirt in a muted off-white colour. The Fairmount Coat is an evolution of their classic Michigan Coat – one of the most archetypally Carhartt WIP garments. In this form, it is lent a sense of seasonality through pile detailing at the collar and a pile-lined body for added warmth. Here, it is worn over an understated corduroy shirt , with loose Newel chino pants and their recent collaboration with Clarks , which saw then rework the iconic Wallabee Boot. The OG Chore Coat is a robust outer layer with a diamond quilted

As a follow-up to Adidas ‘ reptilian-inspired “Snakeskin” Yung-1s seen back in May, the German sportswear giant is back with this new colourways “Solar Green/Real Purple.” Constructed with premium suede uppers, the silhouette is tinged with hits of neon, following a thematic colour palette. Kicking off the details of the sneaker, the tongue sees an embroidered logo stamped with Adidas ’ Trefoil logo as a nod to the heritage of the vintage silhouette. Three stripes branding is placed at the side walls, framed by a mix of breathable mesh and textured suede overlays. Rounding up the designs are lime-coloured inner collars, an articulated toe box and a crisp white midsole, underscored by a thin outsole. Available in store and online now at Fat Buddha Store .    

You don't put on a pair of Danner Boots to sit around the house. They're made for adventure, exploration and the hard work the men and woman who wear them perform day in and day out. For nearly a century, Danner has crafted boots with purpose and integrity - footwear to equip those who choose the unlikely path, those who cut fresh trails, those who pioneer. Charles Danner came west to build the best boots loggers had ever known, an effort that resulted in a long-standing heritage brand with a renegade spirit. A spirit that proudly lives on in each pair of Danner boots we make to this day. Charles Danner felt the pull to the wild of the Pacific Northwest, drawn by the promise of opportunity in the rugged unknown. He came with a commitment to quality craftsmanship and a deep respect for the uncompromising landscape. From the gleaming alpine lakes and the plummeting river

For Autumn/Winter 2019, Carhartt WIP has collaborated with Pop Trading Company. The resulting capsule collection sees Carhartt WIP archetypes, such as the Detroit Jacket and Nimbus Pullover , filtered through the lens of the Amsterdam-based skate brand. Founded in 2013, Pop Trading Company initially started out as a distribution company, selling skate brands like Palace and Polar within the Benelux market, before going on to launch its own brand in 2016. Since then, it has garnered a following thanks to its understated, refined menswear, and deft reworkings of styles that were popular when its founders, Peter Kolks and Ric van Rest, first started skating in the 1990s. The  Carhartt WIP x Pop Trading Company collection features a muted palette of black and grey hues and includes several signature Pop elements, such as corduroy, nylon, and stripe motifs. The collection is rounded off with a co-branded bag and a tasseled beanie. In addition, each item features a

The story of Barts started in the summer of 1986 when Bart sold his hand-sewn swim shorts along the beaches of St. Tropez. It proved to be a big hit. One of the girls helping him out wrapped a piece of fabric around her head to protect herself from the sun and soon people asked if they could buy this cool bandana. From that moment Bart started to focus on headwear. And only a few years later the brand Barts was born. Three decades later Barts is the outdoor accessory brand for adults and kids in Europe, with over 3.000 selling points.   Barts is specialized in high quality fashion accessories for men, women and kids. They’re based in Amsterdam and design accessories to keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer because Barts believes that life starts outside. From trendy beanies and hand-knitted scarves to cool backpacks – every piece is unique. Even after twenty-five years, their designers keep surprising almost every day with funky ideas, original comb
