Focused Space 2013 Spring/Summer Bag Collection

Written by Julie Hogg on . Posted in Product.

Function meets fashion. Within the world of functional bags and accessories, it can often be hard to find products and designs that are also aesthetically progressive. And, vice versa, it is often the case that the best looking bags are often the least functional. Burgeoning bag brand out of San Diego, Focused Space is the latest addition to the Wish stockist list. Rooted in the idea that function and form can co-exist within the same space, Focused Space aims to blend elements of classic Americana bag styles with an added modernist twist and minimalistic design tenants.

With Spring 2013 serving as the brand’s inaugural debut, the range includes a taut assortment of medium-sized like the SLIMLINE and the INCUBATOR that are constructed using 900D, PU, Nylon, 3600D Yarn Dye materials, feature a molded EVA back panel, and are rounded out with a plethora of exterior and interior pockets. Attention has been paid to the subtle details of each piece with the inclusion of understated leather tag hits, threaded lace zippers pulls, antiqued button details as well as a microfiber interior cloth to help keep your accessories clean.

An assortment from the Focused Space 2013 spring/summer collection is now available through our Moreland Ave. location as well as via our online store here.

SSUR 2013 Spring/Summer Collection Editorial

Written by Julie Hogg on . Posted in Lifestyle, Product.

To accentuate SSUR’s great Spring/Summer ’13 line, we went out and put together a special editorial. The SSUR brand, which is the creator Ruslan Karablin’s name, RUSS, spelled backwards, hints to his Russian heritage. Drawing inspiration from imperial art, Keith Haring, and Stussy, Karablin’s brand has steadily been on the rise in the past few years due to endorsements by A$AP Rocky, Kendrick Lamar and the huge cult popularity of the COMME de FUCKDOWN pieces. Rooted in SSUR’s usual clean and minimal asthetic, this specific drop features a variety of snapbacks, hoodies, tees, and tanks. Photographed by Mae Elizabeth, this collection is now available at Wish.
