FWK by Engineered Garments / Womenswear
I’ve ranted on for many years that so many menswear labels are missing a trick not turning their attentions to the ladies and translating at least some of their collections over. No girly pleats, darts and frills please, just take what you’ve already got and, well, make it smaller. What really impressed me about Japan was that so many stores and labels have already done...

Sanders Hi-Top
Sanders do an impressive range of brogues, bucks, Oxfords and desert boots but it’s these thick crepe sole chukka boots I’ve been obsessing over for a while now. Spotted at Jacket Required, the lo version are second on the list. Navy or Brown. I’d be happy either way.

The Perfect Loafer / Yuketen
The Yuketen Country Loafer has been banging around for quite some time. I regularly click on Superdenim’s sale section to see if my size has appeared and if not, just stare at them for a while imagining all the happy days we’d spend together skipping, hi-fiving strangers, buying Ice cream, tickling puppies…
The combination of dark tan grain leather, heavy stitching and...

Amy
First time I saw Amy in Camden was outside the Odeon Parkway, she was wearing her trademark silk ‘Pink Ladies’ jacket looking unbelievably cool, whether you knew who she was or not you’d stop and look. She was pretty unknown at the time but I’d heard her sing a few months before on some forgettable Channel4 late night arts programme and she blew me away, I was half...

Mr Mudd & Mr Gold Pt.1 / Vintage
Stockholm’s Mr Mudd and Mr Gold is pretty much my dream store. It stocks so many of my favourite brands that I feel it’s mocking me a little, a whole raft of amazing goods that will never be mine. If I was ever offered the chance to be involved in a Supermarket Sweep situation I’d choose this place to ransack. As if to put the boot in they also do a pretty special line in vintage...
