MiNGLED release an ad [video]

January 20, 2009

Not many tee companies make videos to promote themselves, but MiNGLED seem to be testing the waters with this first attempt that was shot on the South Bank in London last year, but only edited and put together recently. It’s a cool ad, but it does seem as if it’s building to something that doesn’t [...]

Where to buy great t-shirts in London

September 5, 2008

When I was down in London recently I was doing some shopping and naturally I wanted to see what the capital had to offer in terms of t-shirts. I’d done a little research before my trip, and found a few cool places, but I couldn’t find exactly what I was after. I figured that if [...]

Surprisingly, I’m not staying at the Ritz

August 17, 2008

Hey guys, just so you didn’t think I’d gone MIA I thought I’d better tell you that I’m down in the land of M.I.A, London (or as we Northerners call it, ‘that London’), for a couple of days, so no posts until Tuesday. If there’s no posts by Wednesday, panic and form search parties, I [...]

Say Hello To Council Dukes

June 3, 2008

Let’s do the polite thing and let Council Dukes introduce themselves before I give you my thoughts: Council Dukes is a new streetwear label coming straight outta East London- it typifies all that is admirable about the gentleman thief, the geezer, the cheeky conman who’ll rob you blind with a smile on his face. With [...]

Vote Boris/Ken for London Mayor by Mingled

April 23, 2008

I was watching a debate with the three front runners for the London Mayoral Election (Boris Johnson – Conservative, Ken Livingston – Labour, Brian Paddick – Liberal Democrat) on Sunday, and I realised that I wouldn’t really want any of them to be in charge of a city that I lived in, they were squabbling [...]

Fear not gentle readers, HYA has not turned into Hide Your Ass (now there’s an idea!), but I promised these guys that I’d write something about them even if I don’t have the first clue about the world of premium jeanswear.

Lazy Oaf’s Grand Reopening

April 2, 2008

Lazy Oaf reopened their Kingly Court store a few days ago, as you can see it looks rather swish, a definite improvement on the store I visited during my Margin trip. If you’re a Londoner, or just in the area (Kingly Court is located on/just off Carnaby Street), check them out, tell them Andy from [...]

Lazy Oaf are opening a pop-up shop (which seem to be all the rage nowadays) on Ganton Street, London, whilst they give their regular shop at Kingly Court a makeover.

Soft Touch Reviews: Chateau Roux

August 3, 2006

When I get sent a tee it’s usually in a brown padded envelope, or sometimes in those rather dramatic looking eagle emblazoned grey packets from the United States Postal Service, which was why I was rather confused when I found a large box on the kitchen table on Tuesday morning, I thought that Chateau Roux [...]
