Karhu_green

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.

Get some sci-fi style with the Raygun necklace

Raygun

Straight out of a vintage b-movie and into your jewellery box – the Raygun necklace.

Available in three colours (blue, pink and black), each one is shaped like a classic zapper, although it’s unclear what either the gun or chain is made of. But as the price is just £10, you can probably presume this isn’t solid silver.

If you like these, the company also does matching earrings – which sell for £14 per pair.
