Work in Progress

Apologes for the rather quiet blog over the last week, we are transferring over to a new system very soon and trying to sort that out has taken up most of our time (it will be worth it in the end though!) Once our construction zone is cleared and the dust settles we shall be sure to direct you to our new home!

A few things to mention that have gone online over the last few days - we've had some men and women's denim shipped in from Dickies and Carhartt, along with some other great summer bits. We've had a restock of one of our top selling denim pieces, the Dickies Steel Selvedge - quite possibly the most reasonably priced selvage denim on the market, with a high quality that completely smashes its cheap price tag! With the sun out (then in again, then out again) we've had some great shorts in for ladies - the Carhartt Womens Presenter Bermuda's are set to be a real class look for this summer. We have also got a delivery due early next week of the latest tee designs from Chunk, with their usual mix of 80s movie inspired retro classic prints! We will keep you posted here as soon as they arrive, or if you sign up to our newsletter you will get updates straight to your inbox with an exclusive subscribers offer!

Stussy x Bathing Ape

Stussy's 30th anniversary this year has already seen them release some great designs and collaborations, and the latest one to emerge is another set of t-shirt designs with Bathing Ape. The all over camo collab received a slightly mixed response when it was released, but this new collection features the classic Stussy Camo Stock t-shirt, with Bape Camo design. Available in two different colour tees (black for Stussy version, white for Bathing Ape) the Camo print comes in 3 different colourways - blue camo, green camo and pink camo. Early indications are these tees will be priced as Stussy t-shirts, as they are printed on Stussy's standard cut tee.

So.... where can I buy the Stussy x Bape t-shirt? Thats a very good question, and sadly not from us - the release date is the 12th June, and they will be available from Bape stores and a strictly limited number of Stussy outlets. Its unlikely they will be available in the UK, but with such a high profile collab they won't be around for long wherever they land!

We will however have the Stussy x James Jarvis tees very soon, watch this space for details!

OBEY GIANT Pasting and more

We have just uploaded some photos from the Switch archives, which include some images of our stores past and present, and a great step by step gallery of our in-store pasting from Obey Clothing. With the famed OBEY Andre the Giant Face, which kickstarted Shepard Fairey's street art campaign, now greeting every visitor to the Switch store, we take you back to a time before the pasting when all that existed was blank wall!

Netsky album finally lands!

One of the most anticipated albums of the year so far, and probably one of the most anticipated Drum and Bass albums of all time has arrived in store! "Netsky" by Belgian super producer Boris Netksy looks set to propell him into the big time with his unique production and lush liquid D & B soundscapes. Netsky's sound has seen him find favour all across the Drum and Bass world, and his music has been played not just on the liquid favoured floors such as 'Hospitality' but also on many of the jump up and darker D & B floors.

Available on 14 track CD, with 2 tracks not featured on the illegally leaked promo version, this album for Hospital features a whole wealth of brand new unheard material, previously unavailable on any other Netsky release. The CDs have just dropped into our store, and will be available for official release from Monday 31st May.
