You’re not going to go far wrong with these two. Norse Projects and Ally Capellino continue their accessories partnership. The Fjell rucksack, originally available in canvas, returns in nylon and all the good looks of its older brother. “The tough, water resistant nylon exterior acknowledges the fundamental demand for a hard-wearing rucksack and is united with a suede base and classic ‘Ally’ leather straps. Inside, there is a padded 15″ laptop compartment secured by a velcro strap.” Two top brands combining their sizeable design skills. Yep, Good stuff. In stores today and online next week

Simplicity is god. Or, in the case of Norse Projects’ collaboration with Pro-Keds: simplicity is Odin. Minimalism certainly wins out in their reworking the Royal Master sneaker. Here, NP delivers three colorways inspired by their Copenhagen environs: specifically the ocean, the beach and old town. Pigskin suede, a cork inner sole and leather lining make for a classic look and feel indeed. The aniline dyed leather heel tab is just a nice little touch on a solid understated piece of fancy footwear that we’d like to wear in the old town and on the beach; but not in the ocean. -jt

Ah, corduroy. You make a great pair of trousers and here you go turning a seemingly ordinary shirt into something kind of special. We appreciate George Costanza’s dream to drape himself in velvet if it were socially acceptable, it’s pretty much how we feel about cord. This shirt from Norse Projects might just get us a step close. 100% cotton, medium weight fabric in this rather fetching khaki colour, the dream just a click away. Goodhood has them.

Perennial blog favourite Norse Projects are back here again with this shirt. Looking like an old-school prisoner has never been so cool. (Norse Store)

Norse Projects debut their Spring/Summer 2011 collection with an arsenal of great pieces.”SS11 draws inspiration from bare-footed beach days in the long and mystical Scandinavian summer light, and as always, our long and rich Nordic history.” The “Alvar” Jacket is a “nordic inspired anorak,” that is made in the United Kingdom. The jacket comes in two colorways: freesia, a light yellow color and stellar – a almost sky blue color. The extended elbow detail that hits the cuff of the wrist is not only aesthetically nice, it looks like that part is re-enforced. A great piece that would really help with the unpredictable weather conditions.

We never usually advocate steez biting of any kind, but we’ve been trying to ape the picture on the front of Miles Davis’ ‘Milestones’ for eons now. The problem? We couldn’t find a shirt that was the right shade of green. This Norse shirt fits the bill, the green is perfect and, most importantly, it won’t have you looking like an oversized lime. (End)

While this may not be a true collaboration – they did use some of the best wool out there. Norse Projects (hello Denmark) sourced wool from Italy’s Loro Piana to work over a waist length down jacket. They have a “water repellent treatment and exclusive hydrophilic membranes that are water resistant transpiring and windproof. All zippers are gun metal 8mm RiRi zippers.” Available in dark navy & Heather grey.
