Gimme 5/Hideout sale!*

As sales go this was pretty decent. Before opening there was line wrapped around the store, loads of hungry heads looking to strip that place bare, and as soon as it opened people went nuts. Just grabbing whatever they could get their hands on, but by the time i got in it was kinda chilled. There's something for everyone which is pretty cool. Bargains to be had on stuff like neighborhood - shirts that were £80+ are now £30 odd, w)taps - same as neighborhood, headporter+ - loads of nice tops and shirts the mature streetwear head will love, goodenough UK - loads of tees that are £10 each and loadssss of accessories like lil' pouches/bags plus there’s some bags from Stussy too. But the best bargains to be had are from BBC/Ice Cream. Jackets that were once £300+ are now £50 odd, not my bag but i'm sure heads will appreciate. But be warned my friend Josh kinda stripped that section bare haha. It's def worth a visit if you’re in the area. It's literally around the corner from Glorias. East is the new West...

Finally managed to upload the pics of what i copped. Sorry about the downtime, had to handle some businesssssssssssssssssssss.....

Anyways, i went with this Neighborhood x Gimme5/Hideout coach jacket first. I've wanted it since it first dropped early this year but retail on it was kinda steep, something like £230 (i think). I ended up buying it for £50, bargain! The coach jacket is something of a streetwear staple, but it's nice to see brands take a new spin on it, whether it's materials or colours. This paticular coach has loads of studded details, a zipped pocket on the chest and a zipped cuff fasten. It's a tad hardcore but hopefully i can tame it down with some chino's and a pair of chukka's ha.

I also picked up a nice selection of GoodEnough t-shirts with the pick of the bunch being this paticular collaboration with aNYthing. Not to sure when it was released but they look dope. I think i'm missing one more to complete the set, so if anyone knows where i can get the orange t-shirt in an XL, holla at the kid!

Oh and i picked up these weird wallets from GoodEnough that i thought looked pretty cool. I really like the pendant on the zips.

That's it folks! Oh and i've been told that the remaining stock will be held onto till the next Hideout sale. So don't spend all that Christmas money just yet, especially since Hideout will be closing at the end of the year...

Bro,that neighborhood jacket is gay...sorry had to say it.
I thought you being a master in everything that is "streetwear" and all that had good taste.Instead you took the item,that nobody wanted.

Chino's and chukka's will do no justice to that outfit,maybe blk leather trouser's and steel toe cap boots will do the trick.
