eBay watch: A pair of midcentury sling chairs by Sergio Rodrigues

Veja Volley 70s-style tennis shoes
We have featured the Veja brand before, a Fairtrade company that produces really cool retro-styled footwear. The Veja Volley is the company's latest addition.

You can see the other colour option over the page, with both pairs selling for £70.
