Adidas 1970s Trimm-Trab trainers reissued

Trimmtabb1

Not an obvious reissue, but the return of the Adidas Trimm-Trab will certainly get a few cheers.

Originally produced in 1977 as a fitness shoe (the name translates to 'keep yourself fit'), its no-nonsense shape made it a hit with the early casuals and that same shape should still clock up a few sales as we enter 2010.

Two interesting suede-based colourways (you can see the bold blue and red over the page), both with trademark indented sole, leather detailing and Ghilly lacing. £54.99 secures you a pair.

Reebok Paris Runner trainers – 25th anniversary reissue

Reebok

From the days when the company was still trading out of Bolton comes a classic 80s sports shoe – Reebok Paris Runner trainers.

Yes, a running shoe from 1984, but looking at the picture, you probably already guessed that bit. For your money, you get the original colourway, a suede and mesh construction, woven tongue label, chunky running shoe sole and the knowledge that this is available in very limited quantities.

Price? You can bag a pair for just under £50.

Depending on your views towards the ex-Smiths frontman, the Morrissey Christmas sweater by Viva Moz is probably the greatest of worst festive garment you've ever seen.

Good for men or women, sold with a free 'tacky badge' and available for Christmas delivery if you order by the end of play Sunday, it sells for £35.

Retro Football Shirts from Burton

Burtonretrofootball

Back before the premier league started churning out a brand new kit every time the wind changed, plenty of English football clubs created an iconic image with some of their designs. While the originals from landmark eras might now be thin on the ground, Score Draw for Burton has the answer with their retro reproductions.

With a variety of shirts from 1967 to present day, they've hand picked a selection of shirts from cup winning moments across English clubs. Unsurprisingly they lean heavily on the big guns like Manchester United and Arsenal, but there's also some picks for Leeds, Villa and Everton among the ranks.

They're selling at £30 a pop, and are almost every bit as authentic in fabric and design as the originals.

Violent Elegance’s La Mela-inspired t-shirt

Redappletshirt

We featured La Mela (The Apple) a while back. Designed by Enzo Mari in 1963, its influence continues to be seen everywhere, not least in these t-shirts from Violent Elegance

The t-shirts feature the same graphic depiction of the apple, right down to the black stalk. The simplicity of the design works well printed onto the white cotton American Apparel t-shirts they've used. Those who are less purist may be interested to know the design is also available with a green apple (different to Mari's original red design). 

The t-shirts cost £26.95.
