Over the years, everytime when we have had the Nike Air Pegasus 89 instock it's done really well. So well infact we always sold out of them in a stupidly short time. Surely that's enough to justify a black sneaker in Summer! If you're after a retro looking simple runner-styled shoe, then the Air pegasus 89 is for you. Available now from us instore or online .

I got hold of him this morning and found out what things he'll be looking to buy from all the new stuff we've got in over recent weeks. First up is full on retro-stylee with the Scandi-Phone . Full touch tone enabled and you can just plug in and go! We have them in Red, Black and White. Next up is the Medicom Be@rbrick 400%, Leslie loves these and has his eye on the Where the Wild Things Are one. Based on the movie, these are a must for all collectors! Leslie, as most people know, is a huge 80's rock fan, KISS in particular. No wonder he loves the Click for Art Tara McPherson Limited Edition Kissbang Cushion . For all those who have been in the shop, you'll have seen our back wall filled with art and design books, probably the most comprehensive collection in Glasgow.
