A very LONG while I said I would do store profile’s on the sneaker and clothing stores I see over here. This is the first instalment hopefully of many where y’all can see the places I window shop at.
The first store I’m introducing you all to is UBIQ.
Situated in the heart of Phiadelphia on Walnut Street, they are the only store in Philadelphia to carry a Tier 0 account with Nike SB, Nike, Palladium Boots as well as stocking a range clothing and accessories from brands such as: The Hundreds, Stussy, 1o Deep and Original Fake.
What I really like about UBIQ is the decor, it’s not your usual sneaker store as its modern and sleek look definitely gives it boutique status. The store has the look of a gallery and the sneakers are the masterpieces on the wall. The bright bulb lights on the ceiling highlight every stitch, colour and detail of the sneakers.
Walk into the back and you have the clothing and apparel section or the extended sale section on the day I went. Again the decor shines through with mahogany shelves that hang jumpers and jackets from The Hundreds, Original Fake, and Nike – my favourite being the Nike M-65 jacket, unfortunately not in the sale.
I mentioned that Ubiq to me was like a gallery and I was true in every sense as upstairs is where TKP Gallery currently resides. I came across the work at TKP Gallery before at an event called October Gallery, the artist in question was heavily influenced by hip-hop, graffiti and pop.
Enjoy!

These are SO fly!
I have a Nike Midnight Madness messenger bag and that is pretty exclusive but I would never wear that ever again if I had one of these. I imagine wearing this to the office. It’s just right, sleek and smart with a hint of street swagger.

I have a thing for backpacks! It’s a NEED!
Especially with summer kind of approaching, you need something to stash your swag! Water, Magazine, Digital Camera etc etc.. I would gladly wear either of these by North Face. Sidebar: been telling people for ages that pink and beige go together.

As unpredictable as the British weather is, you still gotta look GOOD! And if possible cater for all watery, windy, sunny fluctuations!
Presenting the fourth post of Fresh Summer – Pants / Trousers / Chino’s
H&M Light Chino.
I tried these on the other day and was gutted they didnt fit right… The pockets are a bit baggy which for me gives them a bad shape.
The advantages are they are nice and light, can go with everything tops and kicks wise and turn up nicely at the bottom.
I REALLY like! These Chino Shorts come straight from Garb Store. I found their site randomly and am oh so glad! All there pieces are perfect! Slightly pricey however, these come in at £110!
Next!
Maybe my brain is in Yeezy mode now – although when isn’t it! But all three Chino’s from Levi’s Fenom go perfectly with all three colourways of the Air Yeezy’s. The black pair especially with the pink accents on the pockets. Nice!
One last piece from Levi’s Fenom their cropped denim jeans!
Next Post – FOOTWEAR ! Oh boy! I have a feeling I’m going to excel myself! Coming soon!

Its the basic rule of three.
Colour of the tee matches the colour of your belt, which matches a colour in your kicks. When I was 15-17 that ’s all I used to do and you still could.. But now, I like belts that blend and fit just right, that are not defined to one outfit but can be worn with many.
Natural Leather.
London Tan Leather.
Black Leather.
