According to the Der Spiegel site, BMW's Mini offshoot is moving into the scooter market. Specifically the electric scooter market – and with a retro twist.
As you can see from the image above, the company has already given the 'mod treatment' to one of its new bikes, described as 'a new generation of scooters', which will be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show. The mod version is described as the 'Anglophile' and is being pitched at 'modern-day mods'. Eco-friendly ones anyway.
The weather forecast promised sun, but as I look out of the window, it's probably about to pour down. That's the unpredictability of the weather for you – and why you need something like the Nike Classic Windrunner close to hand.
The Windrunner has been around since the 1970s and shows no sign of goign away. Indeed, it's probably never been as popular. Still with its distinctive chevron panelling and bold colour schemes, it also packs that all-important hood and an embroidered logo on chest. It also packs down small when the rain subsides too.
Choose from various colour schemes (you can see another over the page), with a price tag of £59.
Wimbledon is now underway, so the perfect time to feature a reissued tennis shoe – the Nike Allcourt Low Vintage trainers.
First seen in 1975, they were initially pitched as a lightweight all-round shoe for tennis as well as squash and handball. This 'new' Vintage version is probably more of a casual shoe than a sports shoe, offering in white with black detailing with a canvas upper, a towelled lining and pure white vulcanised midsole.
All of that is yours for £49.99.
Another bit of archive footwear, this time from Nike with the Pegasus 83 trainers.
A lightweight sports shoe from (as you might have guessed) 1983, it offers up a lightweight mesh upper and EVA midsole, along with 'mock' suede detailing and a cotton fabric lining.
