SS11-kollektionen fra Gaspard Yurkievich X Eastpak er blevet døbt ‘Sorry, We Are Not Sorry’, og det statement passer måske meget godt på det forhold, at vi har bombarderet siden her med nyheder om Eastpak-kollaborationer på det seneste. For endnu engang må vi blot konstatere, at succeskriterierne er mere end opfyldt! Yurkievich præsenterer en kollektion, der er umiskendelig Yurkievich, men som stadig i høj grad differentierer sig fra AW10-kollektionen. Farverne er blevet lysere, og er dæmpet ned i en sepia-agtig nuance, og det virker også som om Yurkievich har været i det legesyge hjørne denne gang, og har tilføjet detaljer, der giver taskerne en smule mere kant, end tilfældet var med den foregående kollektion.

SS11-collection from Gaspard Yurkievich X Eastpak has been dubbed ‘Sorry, We Are Not Sorry’, and that statement is actually quite fitting, bearing in mind the fact that we have been overloading LeHype with news on the Eastpak-collabos lately. Because once again, we can only concede that it’s a job well done! Yurkievich presents a collection in thread with his signature style, yet largely different from the AW10-collection. The colors are lighter, and have been muted into an almost sepia-like palette. And also, Yurkievich seems to be in a more playful mood this time around, adding more details here and there, to give the bags a tad more edge than was the case last time around.

Den legendariske brasilianske klipklap’er-producent (hedder det det?) Havaianas, har søsat en støtte-kampagne for miljøforkæmperne fra Greenpeace, og til det formål har de allieret sig med en række super eksklusive brands. Bl.a. har man i samarbejde med Pinel & Pinel lavet denne limited edition-udgave af de klassiske sommer-dappere, hvor den sædvanlig gummi-strap er skiftet ud med en af krokodille-skind! Og for at gøre oplevelsen endnu mere eksklusiv, bliver der kun lavet 24 par, der vil blive solgt i et lille udvalg af butikker, herunder det luksuriøse franske mall Colette.

Så skal den danske arbejdsmand anno 19-nogenoghalvtreds hyldes! Han Kjøbenhavn har primært fået skabt sig en navn med deres briller, men der er mere krudt i det kreative arsenal hos københavnerslænget. Og for efteråret 2010 er det virkelig Kjøbenhavn med j der står på agendaen med deres tøjkollektion! Menuen hedder frikadeller med brun sovs og kartofler, og tøjet er slidstærkt work-wear i matte, naturlige farver, gerne patineret efter hårdt slid på fabrikken. Mænd er mænd og mænd har overskæg – og tøj er ikke pynt, det er en praktisk foranstaltning!

Han Kjøbenhavn presents the Danish working class hero, 1950ies style! Although they’re mainly famous for their glasses, Han Kjøbenhavn also have creative firepower aplenty when it comes to apparel. And for fall 2010, it’s old school, working class Copenhagen all the way! It’s rough work-wear in pale, natural colors, aged from hours and hours of busting at the factory. Men will be men, and men will have moustaches – and clothing is not peacocking, it’s just a practicality!

Han Kjøbenhavn is available via their own e-shop.

Dr. Martens forstår virkelig at smede mens jernet er varmt! Deres revival blev total i sidste vinter, hvor de klassiske støvler var at spotte vidt omkring i gadebilledet, og med deres AW10-kollektion præsenteres der både gamle kendinge, men også en række ganske interessante genfortolkninger. Især kontrastsålerne gi’r mig optur på, og jeg har allerede våde drømme om en kombi med Jil Sanders SS11-kollektion. Også støvlerne med straps i stedet for snørrer er et positivt bekendtskab og en oplagt følgesvend i den sjaskede skandinaviske vinter – måske i forbindelse med Neil Barretts læder-patch bukser? Et der i hvert fald er helt sikkert er, at Dr. Martens er tilbage – og det med manér!

______________________________

The Dr. Martens revival is now evident! Last winter you could spot the classic boots everyehere, and with their AW10-collection they present both classics, but also creative reinterpretations of the original. Their contrast soles in particular does it for me, and I’m already fantasizing about combining them with Jil Sander’s SS11-collection. Also the strapped boots rock my world, and would be an obvious choice for the wet and windy Scandinavian winter – maybe accompanied by Neil Barrett’s leather patched trousers? Anyway, one thing is for certain: the Doc is back in style!!!

Gourmet er navnet på et italiensk-amerikansk designhus, der primært leverer kluns til den vestlige side af Atlanten. Alligevel har den britiske skobiks Crooked Tongues fået hevet en serie fodtøj hjem fra Guds eget land, og det kan vi kun glæde os over her bag toldmuren. Især hitop-modellen Uno, der fås i kanvas og læder, får os op at køre, og så er den ikke helt uden lighed med Giuliano Fujiwaras fantastiske SS10-sneakers – Gourmet-udgaven koster bare en hel del mindre. 620 spir for kanvas-modellen og en go’ tusindkroneseddel for skindudgaven, så er dine fødder peppet op til lir!

Italian American brand Gourmet is not a household name in Europe, not yet at least. None the less, British shoe store Crooked Tongue, presents us with a wide range of footwear from the Land of the Free, and boy, are we glad! Their hitop sneaker Uno in particular, available in canvas and leather, excites us, and they’re not without similarities with Giuliano Fujiwaras amazing SS10-sneakers. Good news is the Gourmet ones cost quite a bit less! £ 70 for the canvas model, and £ 120 for the leather edition, and your feet will be good to go – in style, that is!
