Boo Ya Britain:The Pop Up Flea Hits London

Any man who has been fortunate enough to be in New York for one of the Pop up Fleas created by ACL founder Michael Williams and his bud Randy Goldberg has had a taste of what heaven is probably like. Started in 2009 there are heritage brands, vintage goods, new designers crafting quality products, booze, music and man cave wilding all in one.

Since ‘Murica is influencing style around the world these days (Tin cloth in Tokyo! L.L. Bean boots in Britain!), the Pop Up boys decided to roll out their goods in London this Friday. It’s very hard to get the English in a stew about anything, but with Shinola, Levis, Tanner Goods and Todd Snyder heading their way, you can almost hear the collective twitching of mustaches in eager anticipation.

When it comes to luxury and heritage brands, none has the history quite like Christian Louboutin. The iconic red sole brand has certified its position among the most distinguishable of them all. Although Louboutin shoes have historically been associated with women’s footwear, the men’s collection doesn’t hold back either. Recently, the brand unveiled its latest Winter 2025 collection, featuring accessories and footwear for both men and women that elevate timeless silhouettes with iconic signature details from Louboutin. One of the collection’s most versatile and premium designs, the Devon College, highlights the ease of the brand’s creation process by revamping a classic boot design into a modern new shoe option. While the rest of the collection includes a vast amount of options for the winter season, the Devon College is undoubtedly the collection’s most favorable for men this season.

If you aren't familiar with Christian Rich by name, you definitely know their production work with icons like Drake, Childish Gambino, J. Cole, and Pharrell Williams. They bring serious cultural cred, while L.G.R. brings undeniable luxury heritage. (Think of L.G.R. as "if you know, you know" luxury — spotted on figures like Prince William and featured heavily in The White Lotus).
