Here’s a little taster of whats to come from the new Goodhood collaboration with R. Newbold. It’s the 4th season we have collaborated and this is 1 of 2 rucksacks we have produced.
Hopefully you’ve all taken a look at the new additions in our store from O.H.W.O.W - feedback has been really great so we were excited to see their recent carrywear collaboration and thought you might like to cast your eyes over it too! The Miami exhibition space is actually opening a physical store premises in New York shortly mainly selling books but also carrying items and accessories by select designers. Co-founder of O.H.W.O.W. Al Moran said “Aside from our publications, we’ll also be carrying some accessories and objects made for us by our friends and family.”
As per usual, one of our totes comes free with every purchase made in the store and also available to buy separately in the store.
We saw a rather natty bag online last night from one of our brands and very nice it was too. The black tote bag has a rather jazzy Egyptian / hieroglyphic print in red and some very sweet pom-pom details. It looks pretty practical too: it’s a nice size and the strap looks ideal for some comfy-over-the-shoulder carrying. Now if pom-poms aren’t you’re thing, take a look at our range of Perks and Mini bags which are equally practical but pom-pom free.
We have a lot of google alerts set up to help keep an eye on all the latest news from our brands and some have quite a few regular results, and some absolutely loads, and some are so infrequent we have to pinch ourselves when they pop up. One of these more elusive brands is Gregory Japan. We stock a range of their bags including day sacks and duffel bags but so far we’ve never had a bean from google about them. Pretty exclusive stuff – we like that! The content of the alert wasn’t massively exciting – it was an advert for their “Tailmate” bumbag (we stock the XS version if you want to take a look) – but we thought we’d use it as an excuse to shed some light on this exclusive brand.
Following our recent post about Patagonia’s online pat on the back for being goodies when it comes to the environment, we thought we’d mention some new “vegan” bags from Hyde S.K. Sacha Knight, one of Hyde S.K.’s London based designers, has produced the ethnic-influenced bags as part of a new range: the “Stills” two-way tote, the “Luna” and “Ootchi Kooch” shoulder bags and the “Gram” backsack.
