Mitre Rush – retro-styled running shoes

Mitre

Not heard the name Mitre for a long time – perhaps because most of its business comes from the mundane world of balls and accessories these days. But it has sneaked out a retro footwear range of late – the Mitre Rush.

We’re back in the 1980s here, that nylon top, suede detailing and cushioned rubber sole – well, it is a running shoe of sorts. There’s an endless number of colour combinations to choose from too, including the two pictured here.

Priced are very 1980s too – a pair will cost you just under £30.

Uniqlo lightweight pea coat

Uniqlo_pea
A pea coat just for winter? Not if it’s the Uniqlo lightweight pea coat.

Available on brown, grey and the beige pictured here, it dispenses with the bulk, instead going for a lightweight cotton with contrasting buttons on both the front and the ‘hand warmer’ pockets.

And as its Uniqlo, it’s obviously not going to be expensive – just £49.99.

The Beatles Opie T-Shirt

Beatles_opie_teeWe could probably devote a whole section to products relating to the Beatles, there is so much of it out there. Sergeant Pepper merchandise is particularly over-exposed and we’ve all probably seen enough of it. But the t-shirt website Mr Cloud has breathed new life into it with their The Beatles Opie T-Shirt.

The Fab Four are pictured in the pop art style favoured by British artist Julian Opie, who is best known for his artwork for Blur’s Best Of album. The t-shirt is available in a range of sizes children’s and adult sizes and a wide selection of colours.

Priced £15.99, it can be bought online at Mr Cloud.
