None of us can get our hands on the iPhone yet (not that we really want to), but if you’re desperate for a little Apple glamour in your life, then we have found an answer [Via TechEBlog]. Yes, some joker is actually selling a 3D paper model of the iPhone on eBay. It was originally [...]...More
Crumbs chief! There’s a brilliant Danger Mouse car for sale! In fairness, it’s a toy, and won’t fly around and help you defeat the dreaded Baron Greenback but it is a handcrafted resin model of Danger Mouse’s car, complete with Danger Mouse looking cool in his eyepatch and Penfold looking like he’s about to shit [...]...More
Write this down. Friday March 23rd. That’s the day the Playstation3 finally goes on sale in Europe… and it’s also the day that you won’t stand a snowball in hell’s chance of getting one (unless you’re a clever clogs and pre-ordered one). For the rest of us, start queueing now. Only the 60GB version will [...]...More
Air Jordan Vs, first released in 1990, are perhaps the greatest and most influential sneakers of all time. Back in the day, kids were mugging other kids just to get a pair. Anyhoo, Nike has just reissued the V in its original black-and-silver colourway. They still look fresh as f**k. Currently available online from Ryouki, [...]...More
The Onion‘s most excellent Cheat-To-Win ‘lifestyle bracelet’ – yes, it looks a lot like another yellow lifestyle bracelet – is inspired by disgraced U.S pro cyclist Floyd Landis, who won the 2006 Tour de France but then failed a drugs test. Oops. As such, it’s ‘perfect for your deceitful lifestyle’. $...More
If, like us, you’re tired of having to share your lager with your pesky pooch, then the Schilde brewery in Holland has the answer. Kwispelbier (‘Kwispel’ is the Dutch word for wagging a tail), a beer brewed from beef extract and malt (mmm, tasty) is being marketed as ‘the beer for your best friend’. This [...]...More
If you hurry, you may be able to get your hands on a pair of these limited edition New Balance 574 trainers (leather/suede/nylon uppers). These have been taken from the Japanese product line, but they’re not even out over there yet. Suck on that, urban Japanese teenagers! Available from the Triads online shop: BUY THEM [...]...More
We’ve all got tapes lying around the place that we don’t listen to anymore. For example, I’ve got a bag full of John Peel tapes left at my mum’s house. Why didn’t they make the move with me? I spend most of my time at the PC and can’t play tapes in it (and I’ve [...]...More
Older readers of Brandish may well recall their youthful years being frittered away with a bloke trying not to kill himself on his motorbike. Of course I’m talking about Evel Knievel. You may also recall that brilliant rip and rev toy of the great man. Well, you can now relive some of his crazy stunts [...]...More
There are literally thousands of blogs devoted to pretty women – or ‘babes’, as the internet calls them – wearing not-very-much-at-all. In theory, this is a very good thing. In practise, it can be hard (no pun intended) picking out the good ones from the wastes of web space. Luckily for you, dear Brandish readers, [...]...More
The ‘Bernie’ from Etnies is a retro skate sneaker with canvas upper, rubber sole, and trademark Etnies ‘E’ logo. I like its simple, understated design – yes, they looks pretty similar to the Converse AllStar Lo, which tend to be worn mostly by twats in bands and London media types, but these Etnies make an [...]...More
If you’re sick of wearing big label trainers like Adidas or Nike, then how about this small Finnish company called Karhu? Karhu have been taking advantage of its sportswear legacy by reintroducing classic designs under the Karhu Originals banner. They’ve a pretty big range of shoes out, but most notable are the Karhu Originals Olympic [...More
Good lord. We’re actually living in the future! Not only do we have the chance to wear futuristic digital T Shirts, but now you can use a keyboard that doesn’t actually exist. An amazing glimpse of the promised retro-future (by which I mean a future that looks like Tron) has just arrived at ThinkGeek in [...]...More
If you’ve never been skiing or snowboarding (the real thing, as opposed to on a dry slope), then you’d better get a move on – global warming is really kicking in now, and several resorts have had to shut down this winter, due to a distinct lack of snow. Oh well, at least in 2086, [...]...More
‘California’, ‘surf’… two words that conjure up images of fit, tanned bodies and sunshine and golden beaches and hot-panted girls on roller skates. For those readers unfortunate enough to live in Hull (where, I’m reliably informed, the surf is crap) rather than Cali, take comfort in this lovely t-shirt, with its ...More
