Out of the archives and into the modern era, the Sergio Tacchini Fjord tracktop is back on the shelves in time for spring.
It's a vintage bomber-style tracktop (we suspect from the mid-80s) with period detailing like those stripes on the collar and arms, along with the trademark pin-stripes on the side. The only difference is the new colour range for 2009 – light or royal blue.
No matter which you choose, it will cost you £55.
There are many things which have repeatedly come in and out of fashion from bygone eras, but of all the mainstays from the past, smoking seems the most controversial of late. That doesn't have to mean that the tobaccania of vintage eras has to go, though.
This Bizarre Corset Girl cigarette case is one of many retro reproduction case designs. One of the most stylish ways to house your cigarettes, it can double up as an ID holder among many uses for non-smokers too. This fetish style pin-up design features on both sides of the same case, handmade in the US.

The Raleigh Chopper bike has become an icon of the 1970s and has been featured on mugs, t-shirts and bags. To complete the look, it's now available on a wallet.
This wallet isn't a design classic in itself, being a very simple fold-out printed design on canvas, but the price – a mere £9.99 – makes it a good gift purchase for retro bike fans.

You can do even more preparation for the summer with a visit to Giant Vintage, a huge online store containing sunglasses from the 70's, 80's and 90's alongside some retro inspired frames.
The designs run the whole range from the subtle and more contemporary looking to some outlandish novelty numbers. For example, it may be totally the wrong season, but can you resist a pair of Christmas sunglasses complete with holly and ivy patterned frames? Pictured here is a pair called 'Woosh Orange' which would be perfect for imitating the sixties space age look for $20.
Prices in general are a maximum of about $30, although customers outside North America will have to calculate on additional shipping fees.

If you're after a non-nonsense trainer that can take a bit of wear, you might want to check out the Adidas Kick 2 trainers.
Introduced in the mid-70s as a football shoe, they can probably still serve you well in a kickabout, especially with that reinforced toe and the solid sole that packs plenty of grip. But it's also a fairly smart trainer with the minimum of contrast detailing and a gold logo on the tongue.
Choose from three colour options, all retailing for £54.99. See over for the black variation.
Over 20 years since they first appeared, the Adidas Campus trainers are back with a new premium finish.
That finish is suede in a navy blue, with 'premium' leather detailing in white for the stripes and heel, matching laces and that thick set sole.
Bag this 80s classic now, a pair will set you back £55.
