Yes, we have featured these before, but the Uniqlo madras check shirts are even better value now they've been reduced,
Take your pick from four long-sleeve styles and five short sleeves sleeves, all a cotton / linen mix, all logo-free, all button-downs and all made to keep you cool in hot weather.
Definitely 'wardrobe staple' material at that £14.99 price tag.

It's down as jacket, but this Bleu De Paname Moleskin Summer Jacket is as much an overshirt to us.
Anyway, it's good for summer, that we do know. A lightweight navy blue jacket with contrast buttoned up front, large workwear-style front pockets, large wooden buttons, working cuff buttons and a seersucker lining.
£120 is the asking price.

I saw a Snoop Dogg Adidas collaboration the other day, which was pretty horrendous to these eyes. Thankfully, this hop hop collaboration, the Pro Keds x Biz Markie 69er Lo plimsolls, fair much better.
Marcel Hall (aka Biz Markie) has been doing his thing in the world of hip hop since the mid-80s, wearing, it would seem, Pro Keds for much of that time,. Hence the collaboration.
Available in two colours (black or green), this old school plimsoll has a leather upper, custom tongue and footbed, a special edition box and of course, the exclusivity of a limited edition. Grab a pair now for £69.95.

Not too keen on the price, but I do like the design of these Jil Sander men's desert boots.
The style is fairly traditional, but the detailing sets them apart, as well as the construction. Handmade in Spain, the boots are made of 'soft premium leather' with a contrast blue panel around the heel and down the Achilles. There's also a layered wood and rubber sole, a slight heel, and thin laces.
Sold in a dust bag by the same designer, the boot are yours for £355.

Not content with knocking out some tasty footwear, Converse and Mackintosh have teamed up once more for something equally desirable - this Converse x Mackintosh Newfield Coat.
It's an update of the classic / iconic Newfield Mac, said to be the 'original fashion trench coat' in highly limited numbers and in three colours - the blue is above, but there's also a green and beige.
For your money, you get the waterproof Mackintosh construction, single-breasted shape with concealed button placket, dual-branded inner label and embossed button detailing. Quality and scarcity don't come cheap though - you'll have to pay £615 to secure one.
