Check out the huge sale at Chemical Records with discounts up to 75% and include most clothing items. I will find it hard resisting buying something.

Big, big, big release from Seventh.Ink today, some of the items are very limited and already close to selling out, which says a lot for the amount of excitement that Matt has been able to generate around the collection. The three designs you can see above are all available as t-shirts, hoodies and tank tops, all of which are limited edition and won’t be reprinted, but there are also some interesting ‘super limited’ items too. The laser engraved wooden book boxes are a new one on me, I can’t think of many other companies that have done something similar, there’s only seven of each design available on each box. There’s also the belts, which is an oft overlooked accessory at clothing brands, there’s only 10 of those available for each design, and lastly for the accessories there is a button pack.
I think it’s fair to say that with this being called ‘Series 1′ that we can expect to get more of the same from Seventh.Ink over the new few months, and hopefully the same goes for the innovative products that they’re putting out.

I got an e-mail from John at Abuv almost a month ago, and it’s taken me until now to get around to writing about them. That may provide some comfort to those of you that have e-mailed me an I haven’t got back to you yet. I say yet because I do intend to reply to everyone, there’s just only so many hours in the day, you know?
Abuv aren’t just a company that makes t-shirts (4 designs in at the moment, one of them is not pictured), webbing belts and bracelets, they’re setting themselves apart by offering 10% of all sales (not just 10% of profits) to charity, so if you make a purchase with them then you know precisely how much of your order will be going to charity. I’m not a bracelet wearer, but John from Abuv makes the bracelets by hand himself, and I think it’s cool that there is that personal connection to the items that they’re selling. I know that there’s always a connection when I talk about tee brands because they have the designs made or design them themselves and then get a printer company to produce finish product (it’s a smaller and smaller percentage of brands printing their own shirts these days), but it feels a little different with the idea of handmade bracelets.
The range available in their store isn’t massive at the moment, but everyone has to grow from something and I look forward to see what they come up with in the future.

I thought that “destroy breast cancer” had a bit more punch to it than “support a breast cancer charity.” This isn’t a belt blog, that would be too niche even for me, but when it comes to a brand trying to help a charity I’m a bit of a sucker. Apparently October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month, and whilst the month may almost be out, Boston Cream are still trying to do their bit, and all proceeds from the sale of these pink $10 belts will be to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. We can expect to hear more from Boston Cream in the next few weeks too, as their Winter collection will be dropping on November 17th.

I know that title might make you think that I’m not impressed with Seventh.Ink‘s fall line, but I like it, I justed to try and show some kind of objectivity with one of my advertisers. I would write about them whether they were or weren’t helping to keep the server running and the HYA jet filled with supermodels, but HYA is a shill-free zone, so with posts like this I would prefer to just give you the facts and let you make up your own mind. They are being quite ambitious though, the three designs you can see above are being made available (when the line is released on Monday) as tee, hoodies, and belts. Read more about the new line on their blog, and check out all the previews in the gallery.
