Premium mesh material at the back boosts comfort and breathability, while a total of three pockets – as well as an internal laptop sleeve – offer secure storage for all your essentials.

  • Leather top handle
  • Adjustable shoulder straps
  • Front zipped pocket
  • Cotton twill lining

This backpack is available directly from the MCM website, and MCM flagship store in London.

Fashion | The meaning of the tradition of wearing red underwear on New Year’s Eve!

You will certainly have heard about this tradition or you might already following it. Now is the time to learn about its meaning!

According to a tradition, it is said to date back in the Middle Ages when people were not allowed to wear red garments, because the colour was associated with blood, the devil, witchcraft and evil forces.

According to the legend women who wore red underwear during New Year’s Eve had good luck in love on the following year, attracting wealthy men, or finding passion in their current relationships.

Red underwear is now associated with passion, happiness and sex, so wearing red underwear on New Year’s Eve may not only bring love to the new year but also a lot of passion. So its fair to say, both ladies and gents, you should all be wearing your newest and best Red underwear on December 31st, going into January 1st, no matter what year it is. Enjoy

Fashion | Air Jordan Future releasing 15.03.14

The almighty, success driven Jordan brand has done it again, they are bring us what they call “Future” or rightly named, Air Jordan Future. Now I’ll be honest, the first images of this sneaker, had me like no way, I don’t like that. But now that the brand has released official images prior to it’s March 15th release, I have to say, my opinion has changed dramatically. This is a luxury looking sneaker, and a fine looking one at that. The Jumpman brand have done away with a leather upper for this sneaker, and have given it the woven material treatment. They say that this creation is “symbiotic relationship between the court and the street”. The Future silhouette is designed with an Air Jordan XI sole with a chukka style upper, complete with an asymmetrical lace-up system.

Jordan Brand’s description of the sneaker says:

With a carbon fiber plate and full-length air outsole, the Jordan Future offers lightweight comfort and cushioning. Enhancing the minimalist nature of the shoe, the deconstructed upper foregoes a heel counter and toe enforcer. The asymmetrical lacing reduces pressure across the top of the foot, while the suede interior and ankle collar enhance comfort.

The release date for the Jordan Future is Saturday 15th March, and the colour ways they have shown us are that of the Black / Glow OR Black/ Infrared version. In my opinion, I will purchase one for sure, something different and as the name says, it’s looking ahead to the Future, not trying to recreate the OG colourways and designs that so many sneaker heads would like to see protected, and remain as classics with no re-productions.

Fashion | Jay Z x HUBLOT "Shawn Carter Watch"

Is there nothing that Jay Z can’t do in this modern age, that doesn’t influence our culture away from music? Answer to that is, well no. Mr Shawn Carter has influenced so much in our modern age from Music, Art, Movies, Sport, Design and don’t forget his imprint in Fashion via his Rocawear brand. It would only seem right that Jigga has teamed up with one of the most spoken about watch manufactures in music and sport HUBLOT,  whom have never been shy about collaborations with artists, sports teams and even players like Lebron James, to create some very original time pieces.

Now in the Classic Fusion collection, you will be able to find the “Shawn Carter” watch. Designed by its namesake himself, the Shawn Carter by HUBLOT Classic Fusion features the SC logo cut into the dial, front and center, not only revealing some of the precise inner workings of the movement, but adding a bit of edge to the smooth face. Measuring 45mm in diameter, the piece encapsulates HUBLOT’s 2.90mm HUB 1300 hand-wound movement, arriving in two different make-ups: a black ceramic and a yellow gold, both with a black leather strap and a strict limit of 250 pieces and 100 each, respectively. The watch is set to launch exclusively at Barney’s. This release will be limited to 350 pieces, so if you want one, I’d make those calls to reserve from now.

Release date : November 30th
