We previewed Our Legacy’s footwear collection yesterday and their accessories range earlier on today. Now we can show you their main collection. As expected it’s pretty amazing. Highlights include flecked wool blazers, waxed cotton macs and heavy duty shawl collar cardigans (which designers look to have finally nailed after a couple of overly floppy shawl necks). Other pieces include fair isle jumpers, wool overcoats, pea coats and blazers. Check back tommorow for their shirt collection.

‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ is the mantra of Our Legacy’s accessories line as they continue their great duffles and belts from SS09 and instead expand into smaller accesssories. New inclusions include wallets, washbags and document holders (pictured above). For the most part, the range is made from the same shade of leather as their SS09 Duffle, which will be good news for those who like their accessories to match.

Common Projects Achilles Low Special 09

common projects achilles low special 09 Common Projects Achilles Low Special 09

Common Projects have slid these special edition CP’s into Tres Bien on the sly and they look pretty, for lack of a better word, special. If any criticism can be sent at Common Projects, it’s that they can be too minimalistic at times, bordering on boring. These sneakers are perfect for those who thought the full patent versions were a bit too loud and the plain ones a little dull. Lookwise, they’re bordering on Lanvin territory but the suede mixed with the patent gives it their own identity. Get them from Tres Bien.
