AIR JORDAN OG CEMENT SPIZ'IKE - £143
SNEAKERS - I got my hands on these Spiz'ikes [UK size 8] late last year from the guys from ALIFE Rivington Club.
In fact they are still in the box unworn and I don't think I will ever wear them. These sneakers should be worn and I would be happy to sell them at the price I paid, I can supply you with the receipt too.

AIR JORDAN 1 [DMP PACK] - £150.00
Without a shadow of a doubt, the Jordan 1 is my favourite sneaker. Nothing comes close to the perfect silhouette of the high top Jordan 1!
When I was told about about the colourways dropping in this twin pack, I knew this would be the release of the year. Forget the Air Yeezys and all the other hype trainers. The Defining Moments Pack [DMP] includes the infamous black and red colourway and the Celtics green bean working.
The DMP pays tribute to Micheal Jordan's now legendary 63 points scored in the first round of the 1986 NBA Playoffs against the Boston Celtics. The tongue on both pairs shoes carries the date of the game and number of points scored by Jordan - "APRIL 20, 1986. 53 POINTS".
It's safe to say, there is one very happy consumer in the possession of two beautiful Jordan 1s. The only issue now is, which pair or wear first? Or maybe keep them boxed, then bring them out for a special occasion?

PAUL SMITH SHIRT = £135.00
LEVI'S VINTAGE = £150.00
Being a self confessed denim snob means it's difficult go back on statements like, 'I only wear denim that has selvedge'. So when my last pair of jeans bit the dust it was time to invest in another pair of jeans, of course I had to stick to my selvedge mantra. So I popped into the ever changing Cinch (the Levi's concept store off Carnaby St. that only stock Levi's Red and Levi's Vintage).
I found these 1963 Levi's 505s and they are fantastic, they're a nice deep indigo denim is always a safe bet! The thing that really caught my eye was a very bold claim on one of the tags stating 'EVERY PAIR GUARANTEED: A NEW PAIR IF THEY RIP". So I've put the receipt and the label in a safe place and lets see if Levi's stick to their word... Just have to hope the safe place, isn't too safe!
