Erkn Footwear | Spring/Summer 2016 Collection | Bournemouth (UK) | By Lee Fleming

London-based ERKN Footwear is the brainchild of Bournemouth graduated Elliott Erkan and we're looking forward to getting our hands on the Spring/Summer 2016 collection. Handmade in Italy using the finest leathers from the likes of the Carli leather tannery, the tightly-edited collection features three silhouettes understandably titled 001, 002 and 003 representing their order of conception. The use of premium leather, old-world Italian craft techniques and traditional dyeing techniques makes ERKN Footwear one to watch.

Nigel Cabourn | AW15 Authentic Campaign | Les Diableret (CHE) | By Lee Fleming

The latest lookbook by British fashion designer Nigel Cabourn recently caught our eye for many reasons, notably Cabourn's attention to detail and commitment to create unrivalled authenticity. The Autumn/Winter 2015 Authentic Collection is inspired by the 1955-58 Crossing of the Antarctic expedition led by Edward Hillary and Vivian Fuchs. For it's campaign imagery photographer Matt Hind joined Drew Holmes and Jim Nettleton of the Cabourn team to Les Diableret in the Swiss Alps. Led by local mountain guide Blaise Rouiller, the trio were photographed making their way to Les Diableret via ski-doos and pitching the Nigel Cabourn Ventile tent while wearing the Nigel Cabourn Authentic clothing.

Story mfg. | London (UK) | By Lee Fleming

We're been observing English denim label Story Mfg. since it's inception earlier this year. Founded by partners Katy Katazome and Bobbin Threadbare, Story mfg. strives to re-wild traditional craftsmanship with a focus on slow manufacturing and season-less products. Their 'Slow made' philosophy isn't for the impatient, opting to use extremely slow processes including using hand picked cotton, hank dyed yarn and hand loomed denim to create their timeless collection.

Inspired by the past with vintage influences, the Story Mfg. Collection includes the 0 Jean (classic five pocket jean) , time jacket (pre-1950s prison issue jacket) and beautiful eyewear made from 100% cotton acetate.
