CREPE CITY IS BACK!

September 7th, 2011

Ok guys, its that time of the year again to draw out them fresh crepes (kicks/sneakers if you didn’t already know) and get down to Crepe City…here’s a healthy dose of blurb for anyone unfamiliar with this event…

Crepe City, the UK’s largest rare and vintage sneaker sale, returns to Bar Music Hall in Shoreditch on Sunday 18th September 2011.
With over a 1000 trainers for sale from 20 of the UK’s leading collectors and resellers and stalls from London’s hottest streetwear brands it is a one of a kind event and will be the largest Crepe City yet.

Expect to find trainer treats such as original Jordan’s and Retros from late 90s to current day, Nike Air Maxes, SBs and Air Forces and Vintage Nikes from 1980s and 1990s.
Also on sale for the first time ever in the UK will be two stunning collections of Vintage Puma Discs (including multiple pairs of original womens disc blaze), Asics (including Gel Lytes, Hyperfits and many other rarely seen on sale classic running shoes), Adidas court/terrace shoes from 1970s and 1980s (including multiple pairs of original Adidas Londons) and Nike runners from 1980s – early 1990s (including original tailwinds and windrunners). We also have a load of hard to find Jordans including Black/Red and White/Black Jordan 4’s from 1999, Colombia 11’s and White/Navy 6’s.

On top of this there will be an exclusive clothing and sneaker stall from GIMME 5 and the UK’s leading streetwear brands will be in attendance including PINS, Benjart, Playdot, 360 Clothing, Dat Tag, Protégé and Fev. Crepe City caters for all styles and sizes (including the girls) with shoes ranging from £30 bargains to £500 exclusives.

There will be music all day with guest appearances from DJ Zoel and other leading DJ’s showcasing London’s young talent. The bar and kitchen will be serving all day breakfasts and fresh crepes.

NIKE X DIZZEE RASCAL (TONGUE AND CHEEK)

September 17th, 2009

Dizzee-Rascal-Air-Max-90-1-2

So the Air Yeezy hype has slightly calmed down (still haven’t worn mine yet!), now the next ‘moosic artist x nike’ collab is none other than our very own Dizzee Rascal…
His latest album, ‘Tongue n Cheek’ will be dropping on the 21st September, aswell as these fresh Air Max 90′s in collaboration with the creative genius Ben Drury. Ive been waiting for these to drop a good while now, and will be looking to kop these tomorrow at 1948 store in Shorditch where they will be officially released.
The materials evident are mix up of suede, soft perforated leather (i am fan of perforated leather!) and transparent bits including swoosh and rubber sole which contains Dizzee’s Dirty Stank Logo. The heel is also personalized with a reflective Dizzee man logo which tops it off different and nicely!

Check out the promo vid, featuring ‘Chillin Wiv Da Man Dem’, a typical Dizzee track to jam and chillax to…

WHAT A TINKER!

August 24th, 2009

Architecture+Technical Design+Nike = Tinker Hatfield…I am a fan. I came across this clip and thought wow! This guy switched up the basic running shoe template and gave it something totally new and original. The idea to have the air bubble visible is mos def thinking out the box and has become one of Nike’s trademarks to date. The fact that he tried something different and went against the grain is over inspiring as that’s what makes you stand out from the crowd and get recognised for your sheer brilliance. The creative thought process is a beautiful thing, and Tinker outlines everything from his inspiration to the finished masterpiece…enjoy!
