Milkcrate x X-Large T-Shirts

When you think of Milkcrate and X-Large the first thing that springs to mind is that between them they have two of the most unmistakable brand logos in Streetwear. Added to that, both have strong ties with underground music culture – Aaron LaCrate most recently working on productions for both Mobb Deep and Jim Jones while of course, famously, Mike D of the Beastie Boys was an original X-Large partner.

In recent years, X-Large have enjoyed huge popularity in the Japanese market, with a number of standalone locations in and around Tokyo. In this time, the brand has become much more difficult to pick up outside of Japan, which makes this Winter drop from Milkcrate that extra bit special.

This is a collaboration that makes complete sense and as such the result is a visually impressive graphic tee, fusing both Milkcrate and X-Large logos in 3 different colour combinations on White, Heather Grey and Black base tees.

Available now in Manchester and online through our web-store.

Mishka Holiday 11 Shirting

With their Holiday 11 collection just around the corner, Mishka reveal a sample of some of the shirting we can expect from them in the next month or so.

The Post War Utility Shirt is an impressive camo offering, featuring contrast denim details on the cuff, collar and pockets – with button closing chest/stash pockets on the front of the shirt.

The Edgeworth Poplin Shirt will be available in both Fire Red and Winter Blue, both very distinguishable colour choices. Front chest pockets with button closures and contrast elbow patches finish the shirt off nicely.
