The most peculiar of combinations...


Every now and again, two things come together that are totally unexpected. Sometimes this meeting of difference is so unimaginable it yields strange and fascinating results... Other times it exemplifies innovation and brilliance. If i was to be given a spade right now, i would be digging Wood Woods forth coming collaboration with oldskool Tennis label Ellesse until i reached the earths core. I find the idea of a Swedish street wear brand and an old skool sports label such as Ellesse coming together rather interesting - like Kim Jones and Umbro. However, one thing cannot be mistaken from these promotional pictures (that I've plain hijacked from Hanon Shop) .... And that is that this project is looking very fucking cool, very cool indeed. So get your old skool bucket hats at the ready, this is one person who'll be investing in some rather unusual and eclectic thread ware from the most unlikely of partnerships since Sol Campbell went to the red side of North London.
