Onitsuka Tiger Nippon 60 trainers

Onitsuka_nippon_1

Definitely my favourite trainers of the moment are these Onitsuka Tiger Nippon 60 trainers, which, as the name suggests, date back to 1960.

Reissued  by the company for 2007, they were designed for the Japanese delegation at the Olympics in Rome for that year. They feature a contrasting white stripe on the side and front, coupled with the "sun" logo on the side.

Lightweight, available in a number of colours, they’re certainly worth a close look if you fancy something like a bowling shoe. They retail for £75.

We’ve had the Lego cufflinks. so how about matching them up with this Paul Frank Lego buckle belt.

It’s a casual cloth belt, with colourful Lego brick design throughout and a metallic Lego logo buckle. Just one size – 45 inches x 1.25 inches – but you can adjust it right down if you’re a little slimmer than that.

Available online now, you can pick one up for $20 (around £11).

Karhu Originals Champion trainers

Karhu_champion
We do love the Karhu sports shoe range. Previously we’ve featured the Karhu Field running shoe and the  Karhu Olympic trainers, but here’s another throwback shoe we’ve previously missed – the Karhu Originals Champion.

Dating back to 1976, it was the first-ever AirCushion trainer and a huge success on launch – selling over 1 million pairs. The new version are exactly the same as the originals, made by the same people using the same methods. Available in a range of colour schemes, you can pick up a pair of these leather and suede trainers for 111 Euros online.

Fredperry_silk
As well as a new men’s range, Fred Perry also has a new set of clothes for women, again very much classics with a twist (along with some that are simply classics), best summed-up by this Fred Perry Silk Shirt.

It’s a fitted shirt, so you’ll need the right figure to carry it off. If you can, you’ll want to know that it’s a knitted silk shirt with extended placket and embroidered laurel, available only in this sky blue colour.

It’s not all silk, the mix is 70 per cent silk and 30 per cent cotton. You can order one online or try one instore for £60.
