Stories from the Archive: the E130 Jacket.

We have developed an archive of garments and fabrics that we have collected on all our travels over the years. These influence many of our pieces, and we thought you might be interested in some of the stories behind them.

UW Store Playlists.

What you hear in store is pulled from what our teams are listening to day to day, brought together to soundtrack your time with us. We’re sharing playlists from our Nottingham and London stores so you can listen wherever you are in the world. Need somewhere to start? We’ve also asked the team to pick out a few highlights from the lists below.
