I’ve spent a significant amount of time researching and curating this newsletter, I’ve found some of the best sales going on at the moment and then scoured through 1000’s of items to find those that are best priced. I’ve found some of my favourite outfits from the week and then listed the brands that they are wearing or wear often so that you can take inspiration from them. I spent a lot of time looking through eBay trying to find vintage pieces, and I ended up consistently stumbling along 80s and 90s Woolrich, so i’ve dedicated a portion of the newsletter specifically to it. There is of course much more, with niche brands from Japan, France and Glasgow as well as some great tattoo recommendations. I hope you enjoy having a look through, and I very much appreciate the recent growth and support!

Haku is an online retailer that uniquely will pay for import duties on your order. Their focus is on choosing high quality and well put together clothing, which is obvious considering the consistency of the quality of the items on their website.

Tattoos by Sirano
Mainly traditional French Prison tattoo style, but pretty uniquely done. Some great pieces and clearly very talented. I’m particularly a big fan of his work involving tattooing artists painting or drawing.
