Proper Picks – January 2023

It’s that strange point in the season when discounts are plentiful and newness remains somewhat elusive. However, fear not. We’ve not discriminated between full or reduced price and as such there’s a mixed bag here of stuff you’d like.


Homecore Jr Locke Reversible Jacket
The team were recently in Paris where the home store of Homecore (rhymes doesn’t it?) was (and still is) located. What a nice place full of nice clothes. We’ll be paying more attention to this gear in future.

New Balance Rainier Boot
Named after a huge hill near Seattle, this Rainier boot is the kind you’ll attract admiring glances for, yet when the trend dies down a touch, you’ll still be able to wear these for your hill walking.

Norda Dyneema Sneaker
Proper Darth Vader vibes on these you know. They look like they’re made out of tyres for a Land Rover, so it should be no surprise that they’re hard wearing and rugged.

Vollebak Off Grid Fleece
We always say this, but few brands do marketing, storytelling and compelling products like Vollebak. This fleece may appear a straightforward piece of clothing, but listen to Vollebak and they’ll have you believing it’ll also clear your budgie’s teeth.

I might, you should too ,here


Gramicci Stoneheads T-Shirt
Not sure what’s going on here. Is that a side profile of a disgruntled stone bloke on the right? And if so, why isn’t he simple gruntled? Why must he be disgruntled?
