Café Racers: Speed, Style and Ton-Up Culture

$37.00

Documenting some of the most notable examples of café racer culture—the ’60s sub-cultural movement of stripped-down yet jazzed-up motorcycle racing—across 224 pages of striking visuals by photographer Michael Lichter, this book is a celebration of design and engineering. The book flows in chronological order, charting the movement’s course and it’s not just about the bikes, but the culture of it all.

Bow Waist Bikini

$139.00

Brisbane-based SOOT (founded and designed by Edwina Sinclair) makes apparel that’s—at the same time—sophisticated and tongue-in-cheek. Their Bow Waist bikini is made up of a basic high-waisted pant and tank-style top, but its nuance and flair is in the oversized bows. The ribbon-like bows (which can be detached) offer a playful overly cutesy option, while the navy colorway delivers some subtlety to the two-piece.

Chag-A-Lug Bandana

Kapital’s love for eccentric Japanese style is more apparent than ever in their “Chag-A-Lug” bandana.

Each of Kapital’s bandanas are single run and limited edition.

Eva Vibrator

With three different settings, the Eva vibrator from women-led company Dame is powerfully buzzy considering its size. But what makes it stand out from other offerings are its two flexible wings, which tuck under the labia majora for hands-free clitoral stimulation. The Eva was designed (by women) to be used during intercourse, but can definitely be used for solo sessions, too.

And while it’s punchy outside, inside you’ll find a Japanese quartz movement, protected by a stainless steel case that keeps it water- and shock-resistant.
