Fashonisto gets a nice look into OAK and OAK Black Label for autumn 2010. “Inspired by vintage Tokyo street fashion and an infatuation with asymmetrical lines, Oak takes a more structured approach than last season. Taking to jersey, cashmere and wool, the new lineup tackles relaxed silhouettes that reinterpret the classics in the fashion-forward manner that Oak is known for. From a quirky twinset and oversize outerwear to extended proportions, Oak delivers a strong collection while also offering a modern flair within a clean presentation.”

Australian bicycle accessory company Knog has launched a new line of bike locks. Essentially, the seven offerings (and I’m only featuring a few here… FYI) follow on traditional locking devices, but with colorful design twist. Take, for example, the “Strongman” (pictured above). Not too different from a normal u-lock and coated with a non-scratch silicon to keep your frame neat and tidy. Other locks include the “Ringmaster” (a bound steel cable chain cased in silicon) and the “Fisticuff” (a chain that allows locking at two points).

The locks are now making their debut in the UK. More images after the jump. More info at Knog.
