Introducing The Ruskin Brogue
May 10th, 2012The Ruskin Brogue from H By Hudson has just arrived at Hub Shop. Made from smooth chocolatey leather, they are hand-finished with a slightly vintage feel. We love the detachable leather fringing and classic brogue detailing and can’t wait to step out in a pair of these come autumn…. or sooner!

Look On The Bright Side
May 9th, 2012Although the weather has been a great disappointment this spring, things are looking up for the weekend!
That’s right, a spot of sunshine is (finally!) forecast for Saturday and Sunday. Yes, it will also be cloudy and yes, there is a 10% chance of rain, but we’ve chosen to look on the bright side and hope for the best. We’re thinking lemon yellow ice pops, sun flowers and strappy sandals…

Vanishing Elephant SS12
April 22nd, 2012This season, understated Aussie label Vanishing Elephant offer an ultra cool collection of printed (often clashing) cottons, soft jersey, lightweight suiting and swimwear for men. Luckily, you won’t need to fly around the world for a slice of the pie, as we’ve got a little piece right here in old Blighty!
Make a splash with this pair of muted paisley Drawcord Boardie shorts, which are featured in the brand’s look book. Or, laid back and versatile, these Sinopia Long Cuffed Shorts will see you through summer as they look great both dressed up with a starchy oxford or dressed down, with a well-loved jersey tee.
April Newsletter – In the Bag
April 10th, 2012Phone, wallet, keys, diary, book, umbrella, jumper (in case it gets cold later), raisins and some oat cakes (in case someone needs a snack) – All these things and more pass through the average well-used bag. There are those days when you need to carry absolutely everything you own and others when you want the freedom of just keys, card and phone. Luckily, Hub Shop spring accessories cater to all occasions with a selection of premium leather goods and canvas carryalls.
Beck Sondegard knows that sometimes a girl just needs to be hands free, which is why she’s provided an extra across-the-body strap on this oversized slouchy leather bag.
This fun fish print shopper by Barbour has plenty of room for groceries, ideal for piling full at the farmers market.
A more compact option, the Musette bag is a Mimi classic, a great everyday bag made extra special with high quality leather and detailing.
Smaller still, the Acne Stella may be miniature but it’s certainly big on style. With a sleek chainmail strap, it is the perfect evening bag for when a clutch just won’t cut it.
The gentlemen, for whom a single pocket will usually suffice, are spoilt for choice this season with a range of bright canvas bags and buttery leather wallets.
Herschel’s ‘Little America’ bag isn’t so little, the perfect size for a weekend away, it is a modern outdoors style.
An excellent work bag for the briefcase-phobic, Barbour’s mailbag is made of the same waxed cotton as their famous outerwear.
Brazilian accessories brand Veja, known for their environmentally friendly shoes, have branched out into small leather goods like this sturdy elastic strap wallet.
A lightweight, zip-up coin purse with cardholders from Lee will slip easily into your jeans pocket, for maximum portability and comfort.
Dr Denim Spring Summer 12
April 8th, 2012Are you sick and tired of your overworked everyday denim? Feeling feverish for a new pair of slacks? The Dr Denim SS12 range is the remedy you need! From satsuma bright Snap Jeans, to the dapper Donk Chino – at Hub Shop there are spring styles and season-proof staples to perk up even the most peaky pins…
For effortless dressing, pair any of these summery styles with a simple jersey tee and slip on a pair of Swedish Hasbeens to complete to look.
Available in poetic warm ochre, rusty red, ash grey and wine, The Dr Denim SS12 Donk Chino looks great dressed up or down. Or, ease into spring with these Hubert and Eddie Shorts – keep them casual paired with a fleecy sweatshirt or rise to the occasion with a pressed cotton oxford.
March Newsletter – Put A Spring In Your Step
March 31st, 2012What gives a nod to the new season without necessitating too many shivers when the sun goes in?
The Spring Shoe, of course! You know the kind, too woven/open-toed/suede to withstand February’s puddles, but perfect for secretly enjoying this spring’s drought. It might not be good for the garden, but it’s perfect for this selection of new season footwear from Hub Shop.
Sessun’s buttercup-yellow suede sandals with a contoured wooden wedge heel would look perfect with a slick of bright red nail polish.
These soft suede boat shoes from Camper are excellent with a bare ankle and a rolled up chino (see our Dr Denim consignment for more info).
Neutral woven straw gives a fresh take on this slipper shoe from Hudson – our new favourite wear-with-everything style – it’s the thinking woman’s ballet pump.
Brazilian eco-brand Veja know their way around a plimsoll and this classic style in tennis-court white and green is no exception, the perfect ethical sneaker.
In the gentlemen’s corner we’ve got dusty, desert shades and Navaho weaves in relaxed, wearable shapes.
Hudson’s rather natty striped slip-ons feature on trend espadrille-style woven detailing and feel beachy enough to inspire thoughts of holidays.
This take on the desert boot, also from Hudson, is subtle in tone but with a contrast white sole. Great with jeans, really modern with a suit.
Fawn-coloured suede gives a retro feel to the Veja pump, like a super classy bowling shoe.
This YMC shoe is a bold move, the stand-out zig zag print perfect for amping up a casual jeans ‘n’ tee combo.
Uniforms for the Dedicated SS12
March 21st, 2012This season, menswear label Uniforms for the Dedicated collaborate with The Tree Hotel to present a short inspirational film. Entitled ‘Blue Cone Colony’ and set against a surreal woodland backdrop, the film depicts the mood and tone for the brand’s Spring Summer 12 collection. Watch it here and shop handpicked pieces from the new range at Hub shop 88 Stoke Newington Church Street and 2A Ada Street.
