Matching Mondays Bank Holiday Special

Posted in Uncategorized on August 31st, 2009 by cyrus

Matching Mondays Bank Holiday Special Part 1You know the formula, Matching Mondays… 20% off select combos, so let’s get straight into it…

It’s crazy that this is our 6th drop and so far we haven’t hooked you up with an outfit in ‘Wood Orange’, so here it is.

First up is the Acrobat Polo (£50) from Lyle & Scott, sync that with a pair of ILL Air Max Safari’s (£85) from Nike and job done right?

Wrong, you know you need some crispy clean denim to go with a look like that, so let us introduce you to these 2RRB Tapered Regular Dry Jeans (£65) from Wrangler.

That slick combo would normally set you back £200, well as usual, this week it can be yours for £160!

Matching Mondays Bank Holiday Special Part 2Next up this week we have a summer filled Mishka x Reebok extravanganza!

Starting with the fitted (as is often the best thing to do when matching your outfit) we have the Ressurection New Era from Mishka (RRP £35), which also has the added bonus of going with pretty much anything you own already, look at all that colour!

However we have picked out another piece from Mishka to go with it, in the shape of the Watch Dog Polo (£49)… This is seriously the tealest of all the Teal pieces we have ever seen, so if Teal is your thing, get stuck in!

Finishing the whole thing off is the Sir Jam Emirates Air (£75) from Reebok.

£159 thus becomes £125 this week only!

Matching Mondays Part Five

Posted in Uncategorized on August 24th, 2009 by cyrus

It’s Monday once again and that can only mean one thing… Matching Mondays!

Matching Mondays Week 5 Part OneFirst up this week we have a cheeky little combo for you, this one is for those of you who like to leave that button up shirt unbuttoned for that classic casual summer vibe… The shirt in question is this very fresh Townshend Plaid Check Shirt, from Mishka (£69)… We’re generally suckers here for anything in the overly streetwear ‘Seafoam’ colour-way and this time is no different, this is a beautiful shirt!

Underneath that bad boy we have picked out the Munko Tee from The Hundreds (£30), which works beautifully with the shirt above, working the seafoam and yellow perfectly…

Regularly this combo would come to £99, but this week it can be yours for £79… Matching Mondays baby!

Matching Mondays Week 5 Part TwoAlso this week we have a nice little combo with the added touch of a cheeky accessory thrown in the mix, check it out…

Starting with a Kiks Tyo Brushed Logo Trucker Cap (£35) which pretty much does what it says on the tin! Then moving down we have this DOPE Temple Effectives Protect Your Neck Tee (£30) which is a must for all Wu Tang fans and generally fans of ill printed tee’s!

To finish off we have picked out this handy Map Bag from Stussy (£35), ideal for all of your Wu Tang CD’s and Personal CD Player, maybe a marker pen, lighter, keys, money and mobile… OK maybe not the CD player but you get our drift!

Again, this would normally retail at £100 but this week you can pick it all up for £75… Bargain!

Comune At WoodOne of our first drops for AW09 is another new brand at Wood, in the shape of San Fransico’s COMUNE.

COMUNE was formed from the idea that there will always be people out there who not only embrace the rawness and imperfections of everyday life but to use it to creatively push the boundaries of what’s possible in skateboarding, fashion, art and music their own way, with complete disregard of the consequences.

COMUNE’s goal is to provide clothing that reflects this lifestyle of carefree idealism and to support the people that choose to live it.

Look out for COMUNE on our website very soon!

Exhibition: A Brooklyn Couplet

Posted in Uncategorized on August 17th, 2009 by cyrus

A Brooklyn CoupletExhibition Opening: Sat 22nd August – 5PM @ Contact Theatre

Bami Adedoyin and Yako 440 Prodis are a wife and husband team from Brooklyn New York, USA. Both artists believe in nurturing individuality while building commonality in their relationship, functioning much like a couplet does in poetry. The lines can stand on their own, or work together. The two bodies of photographic work on display at Contact visualise that philosophy.

Matching Mondays Sale Edition!

Posted in Uncategorized on August 17th, 2009 by cyrus

In a special edition of Matching Mondays to celebrate the sale, which sees many of our products with up to 50% off, this week we are teaming up some bargains for you!

Matching Mondays Week Four Part OneFirst up we have the always popular Keeping Watch New Era from Brooklyn’s very own Mishka. This is one of Mishka’s more well known logo variations, along with the Bear Mop and Death Adder. We have it in stock in sizes 7 1/4 and 7 1/2 and it usually retails at £35 but we have reduced it to £26 in the sale…

Matching perfectly with this is the Dune Tee from The Hundreds… A highlight piece from their Spring 2009 collection, which remarkably we still have in stock, at least in a size Small and X-Large. All Tee’s from The Hundreds usually go for £30, however all Spring 2009 Tee’s are now reduced by 50% to £15!

That means for just £41 you can pick up this match made in heaven!

Matching Mondays Week Four Part TwoNext in line for some sweet matching treatment is another Mishka fitted hat, this time the Resurrection New Era (which is also available in Black)… The Grey colour-way is available in size 7 1/2 and was previously £35 but has now been reduced to £26…

Combining nicely with this is the Yuko Ishida Feather Tee from Kiks Tyo… Another piece that flew off the shelves here at Wood, apart from Large people didn’t seem to pick up on it! So, we have a few Large’s left in stock and we are offering this at a far more attractive (as if Yuko wasn’t attractive enough!) £35, reduced from £45…

That’s a Mishka/Kiks Tyo combo for £61, which previously would have set you back 80 notes!

Matching Mondays Week Four Part ThreeFinally this week for this special Sale edition of Matching Mondays, we start with another fitted hat, this time the Adam Box Logo New Era in Black (also available in Red)… This has been reduced from £40 to £25 and we currently have size 7 1/2 in stock.

To go with this, we have chosen the X Logo Tee, another classic piece from 10 Deep. Bringing back memories of the very early 90’s, this is a dope tee which we have a couple of size Large’s left in, was £30 now £20…

That’s £45 for a SICK fitted/tee combo, what’s not to like?

Matching Mondays Part Three

Posted in Uncategorized on August 10th, 2009 by cyrus

Can you believe it’s already Week 3 in our fantastic new series Matching Mondays? They say 3 is the magic number, which is why this week we are treating you to, er, 2 great outfits to choose from! Always wanting to keep you on toes, we at Wood are a lateral bunch at times, anyway no need for any more jabbering, let’s get on with the show!

Matching Mondays Week Three - Part OneFirst up, in a late but great tribute to Michael Jackson, we have this simple yet supremely dope Black and White combo…

Taking it from the top we have the In4mation Standard New Era in Black (£35) – this is one of the cleanest fitteds in the store right now and is a dead cert for the ‘I really should have copped that when you had it in’ award for August 09, don’t sleep!

Next we have the Midnight Cowboy Shirt (£70) from 10 Deep, a classic plaid shirt given the 1o Deep treatment, setting you apart from any old schmuck on the high street!

Finally (if you are a UK 7) it’s the Valenzuela Low (£45) from LA kings The Hundreds… Now all you need to do is team this sick combo with your ‘old faithful’ skinny(ish!) jeans and you’re good to go…  Oh and guess what, all this would normally come to £150 but this week, just for you, we’re offering it all for a bargain £119, good times!

Matching Mondays Week Three - Part TwoFor our second combination this week we’re going coast to coast, starting in sunny LA with The Hundreds and this Riot New Era in Black (£35)…

Then straight over to Brooklyn, NYC with a duffle bag just the right size for a couple of killer pieces that will definitely turn heads…

Matching nicely with the fitted hat above we have the We Don’t Play Tee (£30) from 10 Deep, a very cheeky piece for those that know!

Also complementing the Riot New Era from The Hundreds we have the 10 Deep Deepset Crest Crew (£75), which is actually sold out in everything but a Medium, which is handy if you are a Medium but a complete piss take if you aren’t… Ah well, such is life, you should have been quicker!

This sick combo would ordinarily retail at £140, once again this week it can be yours for £109!

As always call/email us for further info.

Posted in Uncategorized on August 3rd, 2009 by cyrus

Matching MondaysWeek Two - Combo Number One

It’s our second installment of Matching Mondays and this week we have not one, not two, but three dope combinations for you to choose from, so come on down!

First up we have this colourful little number, taking it from the top there’s the In4mation Standard New Era (£35), The Hundreds Riot Tee (£30) and to complete the outfit the Reebok Chinese New Year Pump Omni Lites (£95) which would retail @ £160 but with this fantastic Matching Mondays offer it can be all yours for a cool £128!

Note – Reebok Chinese New Year Omni Lites currently available in size UK 7 and 8 only.

Week 2 - Combo Two

Next up we have some more Reebok footwear, this time the beautifully lush Reebok Pump Omni Lite in Team Purple/Red (£85). These have to be seen to be believed, the shape and style of the shoe is just perfection and with the classic Purple/Red combo it’s definitely one of the most eye catching sneakers we have ever had on the shelves here @ Wood!

To match up we have this incredible new Townshend Plaid Shirt from Mishka (£65). Mishka always deliver when it comes to inventive plaid check shirts and this time is no different!

Ordinarily these two pieces would rack up to £150, but just for you, Matching Mondays is serving this outfit up at a tasty £120… Mmm…

Week Two - Combo Number ThreeFinally for this week we are offering the size 9’s of you a chance to pick up these crispy clean Nike Air Max 1’s (£85) and team them with the flyest pieces on road!

Matching up nicely with said kicks we’re offering you the Run DMC At Paris Tee (£45) from Kiks Tyo, featuring photography from the legendary Ricky Powell.

Completing the outfit is this brand new Strength In Numbers Snap Back Cap (£25) from The Hundreds… Fresh to death!

You already know the score – £155? Nah, £124!
