Two iconic names have teamed up for a highly limited edition footwear range, the Converse x Mackintosh Jack Purcell range that is.

Yes, a classic British outerwear firm has teamed up with a classic US footwear label to rework the equally classic Jack Purcell in three colourways – one above, another is pictured over the page.

Grab a pair and you'll get a waterproof Mackintosh upper, vulcanised sole, dual-branded insole plus a contrast sole detail and heel tab. Highly limited as we said, £95 gets you a pair while stocks last.

Posted on | Leave a comment

Blake1

It still has that distinctive, vintage-esque collage style, but Sir Peter Blake also gives a nod to the contemporary art scene with the launch of his new set of prints, Homage to Damien Hirst – Butterfly Man.

According to the man himself: 'Damien Hirst has used butterflies in a lot in his work, and it was pointed out that 'the butterfly man' owes more than a little to his work, so I was happy to dedicate him in homage to Damien. I am an enormous admirer of Damien’s work.'

Ken Garland 1960s ‘Galy Tots’ print reissued by Trunk Records

Posted on | Leave a comment

Galt

If you're after some quirky 1960s art, this Ken Garland Galt Toys print just might fit the bill.

Ken Garland was art editor of Design Magazine, and eventually set up Ken Garland And Associates in 1963, for whom he did work for James Galt And Sons, much of which is highly sought-after by design aficionados.

Amazingly, this is the first time his work has been reprinted, with the work in question being a reprint of imagery used in the 1969 / 70 Galt Toy brochure. Limited to just 25 prints, each print is hand numbered, annotated with 'Galy Tots', 'Galt Toys Catalogue Cover 1969 / 70', 'Ken Garland And Associates' and is hand signed by the man himself. If you want one, it retails for £200.

eBay watch: Nissan Figaro retro-styled car

Posted on | Leave a comment

Figaro

Ok, this has come about because of a train of thought. Back in 2006, we did a piece on Nissan's retro car range, something I was reminded of when I spotted the bizarre Nissan S-Cargo on eBay. But this isn't flagging that vehicle up, it's flagging up the altogether more common, but equally eye-catching Nissan Figaro.

We're flagging up one example on eBay, but right now there are between 70 and 80 examples of the limited edition retro-styled sports car on eBay – so if you're reading this post a bit late, keep checking as they are always plentiful and in all the colours. Something to suit all budgets if you like.
