Deadline New Arrivals

Deadline is a lifestyle brand started by LA based JUNBUG and Brooklyn based NA, the two linked up in 2007 to form Deadline. NA is the face of the company and JUNBUG deals with the business end of the company. Deadline is based on the backgrounds of both JUNBUG & NA, they have taking their life experience and turned them into a brand to bring a mixture of LA and NY steez.

He often hung out at the World Famous Supreme skateshop, where he grew up with a lot of OG skate heads/photographers/artists/hustlers etc. who are today some of the biggest influencers in New York City. Throughout the years, NA has worked along side numerous well known street brands and skateboarding companies, his focus is now Deadline, and it will show by the product of their upcoming season.

JUNBUG

JUNBUG has been a hustler all his life, hustling growing up to be a professional poker player. Similar to NA he has taken his lifetime experiences and turned it into a positive movement by presenting Deadline. A clothing brand for all demographics and nationalities.

Action Bronson In-store Recap

Posted on December 29, 2012 by Adam Candy | 3 Comments

Back on Monday 17th December, what seems like a lifetime ago, The Candy Store and 50 lucky winners were treated to an intimate in-store performance from Queens giant Action Bronson, who followed up his sell out show at the Garage by tearing up the store in what was a very special occasion.

Bronson performed a handful of songs stretching across his various releases, including Bird on a Wire which was definitely a crowd favourite. Afterwards he stayed to chat to the 50 people lucky enough to win entry, signing anything and everything and squatting for many a picture.

Those that missed out will want to stay locked to the blog, Twitter and Instagram for updates on future events. Check out the video recap (by Amas Amat Amo) and a few flicks (by Verena stefani Grotto) below.

Eastpak x The Candy Store Winter Lookbook

Posted on December 21, 2012 by Adam Candy | 1 Comment

A few weeks back we were invited by Eastpak to be the focus of their Winter lookbook shoot. Taking to the streets of Soho that surround the store, each of the staff picked a couple of pieces from the current Winter range of backpacks and other luggage.

The Padded Pak'r is a definite favourite, coming in all season staple colours and allover print make ups new to the winter range, including the Now Leopard and Forever Panther pieces which have definitely been customer favourites.

You can find all of the Padded Pak'r backpacks in store now, priced at £45, along with the Rollout Duffle bag in black.

Big thanks to Eastpak for allowing us to be involved this season. Check out the shots and the short film below.
