Just released on Friday, the new Kings of Leon album 'Come Around Sundown' is already a staff favourite and is on heavy heavy rotation right now. We all have diverse tastes in the shop, but I think we all agree this is a banger. Fraser.

Here at Fat Buddha , we're not just your everyday shop workers, we're actually quite a talented bunch! Owner Leslie hand picks all his staff and rather than go for a hardcore sales team (where how much you can get a customer to spend is more important than selling them the right thing!) he prefers staff who have extensive product knowledge to make sure the customer gets the best service possible. It's no coincidence that all the staff that work here were, and still are, regular customers. Leslie has spent his whole working life in retail and the bizarre information he can pull out of all that experience has to be seen to be believed....want to know how much each carrier bag costs? how much it will cost to send a a pair of Carhartt cargo pants to Australia? or the quickest way to do a stock count? Leslie knows! Some things you may not know about him are that when you see him, his trusty side-kick and FatBuddha shop dog, Maisie is never far away, he has a degree in Archa...

Lyle's the newest member to join the team at Fat Buddha and, like the rest of us, he has already built up a bundle of products in the back of the shop to spend his first pay packet on - I think Leslie might just start paying us in clothing and goodies if this keeps up! Here's some of the goodies that Lyle will be getting over the next few days... Firstly, Lyle is looking to expand his vinyl figure collection by getting hold of a Series 2 Fatcap , and to he loves his Gloomy Zipper Pull so much, he's going for the bigger version with the Gloomy Muzzle harness figure . Lyle is getting his stealth vibe going on by sticking to all black clothing with The Hundreds Jumbo Tee , and finishing off the look with some classic Monty Pant in black too. These should go well with The Hundreds Johnson Mids he bought last month. Not wanting to miss out on the Limited Edition MTN Artist Series cans , Lyle's spending his remaining cash on an Elmac collectable can . Lyle is ...
