We have mentioned these in the past when the coloured variety got a limited reissue, but if you want something a little more plain, Diadora has reissued the Bjorn Borg Elite trainers in white.
These are reissues of the original 1981 shoe, the first tennis shoe produced with a kangaroo leather upper and of course, created for tennis legend Bjorn Borg.
Back on the market, you can grab a pair for £55.

Good old Monopoly, the most enduring of all board games has gone through a lot of changes since it was launched in 1935. Thankfully one mainstay of the game is the Monopoly banker, that cheeky little tycoon we all know and love.
Retrobay has a new t-shirt featuring the man himself. The fun part will be watching people trying to figure out why your little cartoon is so very familiar. Get it online for £11.99 from baby sizes through to mens.
Coming in September is the latest fashion collaboration from Fred Perry – the Terry Hall-inspired V-neck sweater.
It’s based on the one that Hall wore in a copy of The Face (the first edition), a late 70s version with oversized Laurel and a deeper V, but keeping the original shape.
It will be made in pure British lambs wool in a choice of black or maroon in a quantity of just 500. And that’s a worldwide figure – so expect demand to be high when it officially launches in September.
Space Invaders is 30 years old – and to celebrate, maker Taito is producing a limited edition t-shirt and a new online game.
The limited t-shirt is a joint project between Taito and 55DSL and is available from 30th April. It should look something like the above (although that’s obviously a mock up).
But before that – tomorrow in fact – a brand new Space Invaders game will launch under the name Space Invaders World War. It’s essentially a teaser for the t-shirt, but as its Friday, it’s the perfect way to kill work time until the weekend. Check it out via the link below…

We have featured Karhu Originals trainers before – but not the Supergreen.
No prizes for guessing where the name came from, but you might not realise that these date back to 1979, still made in the same factory and using the same handmade methods.
A nylon upper with suede detailing and an AirCushion sole, you can pick them up for both men and women in sizes 4 to 12, priced at 99 Euros.

Topman is reissuing a range of classic 1970s rock t-shirts originally designed by cult 70s fashion label Wonder Workshop.
Working with the original Wonder Workshop designers (John Dove and Molly White) and fashion writer Paul Gorman, these tattoo-inspired t-shirts were first seen on some of the biggest names of the decade – Marc Bolan, Iggy Pop, Mick Jagger and Robert plant were all photographed famously in the t-shirts.
