THE RETURN OF THE JAPANORAK
Polo and Beams are joining up to reissue the coveted ‘Japanorak’ for Beams’ 50th anniversary that originally dropped in 2010.
Major plus is that for those who aren’t in Japan for the release will be able to have their shot at the collection when it drops online on the Beams website on February 2nd.
Beams Japan website offers global shipping using WorldShopping Cart, which should pop up on your screen automatically when visiting—the service is super legit and easy to use. Just add to your cart and checkout normally!
Unsure of the exact time this collection is supposed to release on the website, but I recommend checking the site starting early in the morning Feb 2nd, Japan time.
MENSWEAR BANGERS FOR THE LOW
Nitty Gritty is a Stockholm based multi-brand store that curates a solid selection of brands, but most importantly, the guys behind the shop have an impeccable eye for the individual items they carry from these brands.
They are currently having a 40% off sale on a bunch of great gear; these field low GTX’s from Danner are coming home with me, these amazing denim pants from Comme, or this Japanese cotton roll neck sweater by Nitty Gritty’s in-house label.
Anyway, some definite bangers at their store for cheap right now, which I wouldn’t sleep on if I were you. Check out the full sale directly on their site here.
