Adidas Samba trainers get a reissue in grey or blue suede

Posted on 30th March 2011 | Leave a comment

I know more reissues of the 'same old…' might be greeted with groans from some quarters, but I'm guessing the constant reissues of the Adidas Samba is because is just keeps on selling. If you are on the look out for a new pair, the classic football show from 1962 is back in two new colours.

Those two finishes are blue and grey suede, you can see an image of the second style over the page. Other than that, this is a fairly typical Samba, with the suede upper matched up with a vulcanised sole and gold branding.

£51.99 gets you a pair.

Alfred Sargent suede Chelsea boots for Fred Perry

Posted on 27th February 2011 | 1 Comment

Over on our His Knibs site, we have covered the Fred Perry British Collectables range , but we highlighted these Alfred Sargent for Fred Perry suede Chelsea boots.

These are classic Chelsea boots, with a suede upper, fully leather lined but finished with Fred Perry's trademark twin tipping on the side elastic in a choice of two colours. According to the official blurb, they're also 'Made in England to the highest standards' and created using the Goodyear welting method associated with the finest quality British handmade shoes. There's also an insole that features Fred Perry/Alfred Sargent branding in gold, while the signature Laurel Wreath sits on the leather heel tab.

All of which probably accounts for the high price. They sell for £295 a pair. See the other colour combo over the page.
