New Delivery From Herschel Supply Co.

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 16:26:24 GMT

We've stocked Herschel Supply Co. since day one here at Urban Industry. It was most probably their simple design and colour combinations that first attracted us to the Canadian based luggage company and secondly, once we'd had a closer look at the individual items, their great attention to detail and superior quality.

We've noticed their collections growing season on season and, not hell bent on churning out tons of bags at a sacrifice to quality, a constant development of not only new products but an attempt is always made to better previous bag releases with additional features or use of more premium materials. It's this constant evolution of the brand, whilst still strongly tied to those original roots from which the first bags were first produced, that keeps Herschel Supply Co head and shoulders above the rest with every collection.

This season has been no exception to the rule, with yet more bags to offer up all maintaining or bettering the quality and finish of the previous range. You'll be pleased to know that we've stocked some new bags this time around including the Walton, Totem and Eighteen Bags. These three bags along with the classic Herschel Supply Co Novel Duffle Bag make for some great travel/weekend luggage and accessorys, ranging in capacity from 3.5L (Eighteen Bag) to the mighty 45L (Novel Duffle Bag).

Your more standard size backpacks and bags come in the form of the Heritage, Survey, Little America and Varsity backpacks in some great new colourways including Moss, Sage, Canary and Cobalt. The Herschel Supply Co Heritage Backpack has to be one of our favorites, with it's classic shape, fully lined interior and synthetic leather bottom. The bag also includes a front pocket with key clip, internal media pocket and dividing compartment ideal for laptops up to 15" in size.

Last but not least, and definitely worth a mention, is the new Camo pack range of which we've stocked the limited edition Novel Duffle Bag and Heritage Backpack in this special colour makeup. Both bags feature a heavy 20oz Cordura canvas outer with a new blue/white striped custom lining from Herschel. A little more expensive that the standard colourways but worth every extra penny, providing additional visual and practical features.

So there you have it, the new Spring 2012 range from Herschel Supply Co which is now available both in store and online with us at Urban Industry.

Dickies 874, 873 And 182 Pants

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 15:52:13 GMT

The classic workwear pants from Dickies are undoubtedly the Original 874 Work Pant. I have about 6 different pairs of these trousers and they last forever. Hardwearing, durable Scotch Guarded work pants that are as stiff as cardboard when you first try them on, but soon soften to the most comfortable pair of pants a man could ask for. I prefer the 874s myself for that looser, laid-back fit. Blame it on a misspent youth watching Deftones videos and trying to copy Chino Moreno's style.

The Dickies 873 is a slightly more tapered cousin of the Original 874 Work Pant. You get the same permanent crease, stain release, straight leg work pants but in a slimmer cut.

For those after an even slimmer version of the classic Dickies work pants, we have the C 182 pants. The Dickies C 182 pants are a relative newcomer to Urban Industry, but in a short space of time they have become the chino of choice amongst streetwear heads. These are quite slim fitting in comparison to the 874s and 873s, but feature the same heavyweight Dickies material.

So there you go. No matter what your trouser needs are, we here at Urban Industry will set you right. All our Dickies work pants range in price from £39.99 to £54.99 and are available for purchase HERE

Nike Blazers Arrive For Spring..

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 13:48:49 GMT

The Nike Blazer has been something of a major success in retro, classic basketball shoes, Nike have acknowledged this and they have provided with some strong colour ways and fabrications of both the Blazer Hi and Lo.

This Spring season Nike have dropped this rather strong Blazer Nylon pack in bright pop colours very suitable for the warmer weather ahead. Lightweight on the foot, with a touch of the vintaging that Nike love to add to the Blazer the shape is proven and the fit spot on.

Unfortunately the Blazer hi's in this pack got delivered before Christmas and have pretty much sold out, the Blazer Lo's are here now but not for long. Don't fret though we've got plenty more of this shoe coming along this season and year.

New Vans Authentics

Mon, 16 Jan 2012 14:29:56 GMT

Vans are everywhere right now. Make no mistake about it. No longer confined to the skatepark, Vans have established themselves as the number 1 footwear brand here at Urban Industry. They've been so popular in fact that we've had to buy in a lot of girl's sizes in the Authentics, LPEs (Lo Pro Eras) and Eras just to satisfy the demands of guys and gals.

Spring '12 sees another strong drop from Vans with some killer colourways in the basic ranges, as well as some premium offerings from the Vans California and Vans OTW (Off The Walls) range. There's still more goodness to come from Vans this Spring, so stay tuned to Urban Industry for all the latest news on Vans shoes!

Adidas Originals Start The Spring Deliveries

Mon, 16 Jan 2012 14:52:30 GMT

One of our biggest and more respected sports brand, adidas Originals has started its delivery for Spring newness.

This season we've decided to brand out from the safe path of coloured up adidas Original Gazelles (although we do have this great pair of OG colour Gazelles in as well..) and try some of the new styles that adidas is creating.

Check the particulary good adidas Ceiro Mid, straight for the skate collection we love the subtle black and white uppers with the brown gum sole unit, nice, easy and on point. Also in this season is the slightly more higher build of the adidas Sixtus which mixes motosports with a slight boxing look to produce a new boot.

Also making a great appearance this season is the adidas Originals Marathon 88. A running shoe through and through it features trademark colour up of the white, light grey, black and infra-red orange hit on the 3 stripes.

Check the rest of the new adidas Originals collection right here..

Nike Mayfly Runner Floats This Way Soon..

Fri, 13 Jan 2012 14:27:44 GMT

Very happy to see the Nike Mayfly coming this way soon. I remember our local triathalon store stocking the original release of these a few years back and i was amazed at the superlightweight contruction, i think at the time it was Nike's lightest shoe ever made.. i could be mistaken.

The Nike Mayfly weighs in at 135g, roughly one-third the weight of normal running shoes, even more amazing to me was that they only were meant to last 100km of running and then they were to be thrown away! Supposidely the Mayfly design was inspired by an ideal put forth by Nike's founder Bill Bowerman that a pair of shoes shouuld be strong and suportive enough to carry the runner through a race but fall apart as they crossed the finish line. Obviously if you were going for your personal best time or something these would have been the shoes for you.

Luckily with the new release they've kept the super lightweight construction but upgraded the upper from a Tyvek paper to a super soft suede fabric so you won't have to be chucking them away after 10 trips to the pub. I'm definitely considering a pair for this Summer..

We have 3 colours coming, 2 new and the original all due for March it seems,

488351 002 - Matte Silver

488351 001 - Black/Black Silver

310703 800 - OG - Industrial Orange
