Ghetto_pillow

Getting your head down has got cool – with the introduction of the Gama-Go Ghetto Blaster pillow.

The case is made of 100 per cent cotton, with a design that’s sure to bring back memories for anyone who loved their music loud (and cassette-based) as a child. And it comes filled, so you don’t need to worry about finding some padding for the case.

Which all makes the $28 (£14) price tag quite appealing.

Rasmus Gjesing ATB Tourist bicycle

Atb

Not the cheapest bike on the market, but the Rasmus Gjesing ATB Tourist bicycle certainly offers some originality.

Rasmus Gjesing founded his bicycle company 12 years ago, offering an alternative to mass-produced cycles, with quality being the key selling point. He’s still making them from his own workshop with the ATB Tourist bicycle being just one example.

Great retro looks though, especially with the orange paint job, aluminium handlebars and the Brooks-made leather seat. But there’s also that steel frame and fenders (painted with zinc paint and powder coated) and a simplicity that only adds to its style. Not cheap though – expect to pay around $3200 (£1600).

Jo Colombo 1960s Continental bookcase reissued

Colombo_shelf

We love a design classic here at Retro To Go, so we’re more than pleased to see the reissue of the Jo Colombo Continental bookcase.

Designed by Colombo back in 1965 and based loosely on shop-style shelving, this authorised reissue (and ‘special edition’, which usually means it’s unlikely to be around for long) is produced by Spazio Pontaccio, but is available worldwide from its clients.

Choose from three sizes and a choice of finish (wenge, chestnut, white, black, red or ivory), all with that distinctive 3D-style look over two segments and ample room for books of various sizes. Obviously design classics don’t come cheap and this is no different – London’s Mint is selling these from £1,500.
