Goodhood Gourmet A/W launch
A little over a week ago, Individualism were handed an invitation to check out the new A/W collection from NY footwear company Gourmet. Being massive fans of their designs, we couldn’t resist heading down there with our cameras to see what we could catch.
While forcing our handheld in every possible persons’ face, we bumped into our friends over at Coolography. They snapped some pretty cool pics of the event, even managing to catch myself getting photographed by London style blogger Wayne Tippett.
However, as slick as their review may be, it won’t have anything on our video special, as we managed to grab an exclusive interview with the brand ambassador, filling us in on what they have planned for the future.
Here are the pics from Coolography and the official Goodhood site.
Check out their reviews here and here.
Stay Stylish,
Aaron C.

Gourmet Footwear A/W 2009 Launch
We previously featured this up-and-coming footwear brand in our previous post on ‘Underrated Sneaker Brands’. So we were ecstatic when we were personally-invited to take a sneak peak at their A/W 2009 collection.
The great news is that you can too! Head to 41 Coronet Street, Hoxton, London. See you there!
Stay Stylish,

Top 15 Underrated Sneaker Brands Part 3
Welcome back to the final post of this three-part special. This week we’ve got some real gems for you…
11. Supra
At the time of writing, I can safely say that Supra is no longer ‘underrated’, so this is a little bit of a cheat. But having said that, despite their global success, they still haven’t become a household name over these shores.
Their most iconic style is the Supra Vader (above left) a high top shoe with a large panel. The simple design enabled Supra to create many colourways and styles which have proven extremely popular over the last year.
Their new high top is fast becoming a much sought-after piece of footwear.
12. ALIFE
Alife is another brand based out of NYC. We rarely see them here in the UK but they really know how to create a great high top.
13. The Hundreds
Not notoriously known for producing footwear, ‘The Hundreds’ still came out strong with their Spring/Summer 09 collection.
A great change from Vans, their styles are awash with vibrant colours, helping bring a little LA to the UK. Perfect for our small bursts of summer sun.
14. Gourmet
Gourmet is a brand that takes is influences from Italian-American culture and mixing luxurious fabrics with sneakers is a risky business but these guys seem to effortlessly pull it off.
These are a mix between shoes/trainers with a fashionable twist, though however you want to label them, there’s no denying that these kicks will turn heads. Great for guys who want people to comment on their footwear and are looking for something a little different.
15. FEIT
It’s funny that no-one else thought of a name like this for a footwear brand. Fiet are one of those labels that I stumbled upon whilst browsing the internet and took to immediately.
They say ‘all products are made using Specialized FEIT Komponentry to ensure highest possible standards‘. Exactly. And that can only mean a good thing…right?
