Adidas Grand Slam trainers reissued in green canvas

Grandslam

It's a reissue of the Adidas Grand Slam trainers, although the colour and construction might be slightly controversial.

First seen in 1981, the Grand Slam is back in what's called a 'reverse' colourway, as well as featuring a canvas upper. I suspect we might have lost a few of you already. For those still in, the features and shape are generally intact, but with gold (not real gold obviously) used for the pegs in the sole.

The canvas upper comes in a 'twilight green' and the reissue is described as 'highly limited'. Pre-orders now being taken, £85 is the price.

Vinylart 
More art and another product inspired by old vinyl! The Tossed Vinyl Wall Art is a digital print of randomly scattered records.

The close-ups of albums are set against a stark white background, which provides a contrast with the black vinyl and gives the piece a Sixties op-art look. The canvas measures 20 by 30 inches.

It costs $48 (about £30) from Urban Outfitters.

Habitat’s retro-style maps of London and Paris by Alice Tait

Map1

On a walk round Habitat last week for something substantial to sit on, a couple of things for the wall actually drew my attention – these retro-style maps of London and Paris by Alice Tait.

They're canvas prints, each one with a really cool retro illustration of the major sights of each city. Slightly informative, very eye-catching.

Each one is 60 x 80cm and is digital image printed onto a canvas backing. They sell for £89. An image of the Paris map is over the page.
