Colab recently announced their collaboration with Daniel O’Toole… aka Ears and we’re super excited to present their three amazing specs: The Dorks, The Lazy Blues in Mustard, and The Lazy Blues in Ruby.

Ears, is a Sydney born painter, skater, street artists, musician and regular human… he only discovered his emotive art had value selling scribbles on the back of old cardboard boxes at Newtown station and he hasn’t stopped working since.

Ears is a busy guy, he used to operate Oh Really Gallery, ran a Magazine, is the mastermind behind FreeTheBeats.com and makes music under his own name and others. Unbelievably, he still finds time to exhibit and paint with internationally renowned artists… and collaborate with COLAB.

Celebrate Christmas this year with some old-school Polaroids and have some instant fun. We’ve not only got restock of some of the original silvershade films, but we’ve also got the newest generation of the PX 680 colour material framed in a gorgeous gold frame. There is also a special M.A.D magazine kit that comes with a pack of the freshest PX 600 Silver Shade UV+ black frame film ever, but also with the very first issue of M.A.D magazine created by the independent Japanese photography-passionate label Eyesencia. And what about some Impossible Cold Clip? This perfect tool allows you and your Impossible picture to survive even the hardest winter storm or the hottest Australian summers. What are you waiting for, drop by our stores for the full range or shop online.

The brand that promotes a better way to carry your essentials! Bellroy is all for carrying light and keeping organised and their range of money holding devices (we thought the word ‘wallet’ wasn’t a fair enough description of their craft!) does just that.
With product names to coincide with your cash carrying preference, ie. ‘Very Slim’ or ‘Very Protective’, there’s something to suit every pocket and with a environmentally conscious production process we give it two thumbs up!

Get yours here!

We’re Spring cleaning and making way for some New Season goodies.

So that means… Native Shoes all for $55!

We’ve got Millers, Jerichos and Jeffersons so come in store or purchase online.

A new line coming in this week is Strummer, an Australian grown label by the Edwina Hagon.  Her bohemian-esque touch coupled with cleam tailoring makes her pieces a perfect wardrobe staple for the warmer month ahead.  We’ve got some cutesy dress, accessories and our favourite pick of the bunch are the suede summer sandals!

Available at our Surry Hills Flagship store.  Call 02 8354 0077 to inquire.
