Nash Money x Lacoste Bravington

UK Designer Nash Money is up to his usual business and has moved onto his next Sneaker Project. sneaker project. His last Project was in collaboration with DC Shoes he has now team up with Lacoste to work on the Mid Top Bravington Model.

“Nash was inspired by the suave and sophisticated heritage of Lacoste and wanted to create something that stayed faithful to this design ethos of the brand. The result is an unmistakably Lacoste shoe that is imbued with Nash identity. Drawing inspiration from the brand’s heritage in yachting, this all-new high-top blends classic Lacoste characteristics with signature Nash design elements including a moccasin cross stitch, hidden laces and fat perforations in the leather.

Premium materials have been utilized on the uppers which merge panels of nubuck, suede, mesh and full-grain leather. Nash’s signature is embossed in the suede panels at the top of the laces. A clean overall effect has been created, yet with attention to detail that makes it a truly luxurious sneaker. White and blue versions launch in July, with two more designs to be unveiled in November.”

The White Versions look Pretty Fresh. Both these are set to Drop in July with a further two designs later in the year, look out for these.

Luke 'FUDGE' Kempton - New Skool Tattoos, Ewell Village

I previously put a post up showcasing an old friend of mine Luke 'FUDGE' Kempton and his tattoo work. As mentioned I managed to get down to visit Luke after discussing with him what I wanted him to design for me. It was my first tattoo and it turned out really nice and I'm more than happy with it. So much so that I'm booking myself in to have a load more work done in the next couple of months. It's true what they say once you have one your gonna want more and true to form I'm planning and getting a piece done on my leg as well as having a lot more of my arm filled in.

Luke really is a talented tattoo artist and I would recommend him to anyone weather its your first or your hundred and first tattoo.
