In commemoration of UNKLE’s upcoming United Kingdom tour, Surrender has conceived a special tour t-shirt. The design is based off of UNKLE’s 2007 artwork from the album War Stores. The first stop on the UK tour is the South London musical institution Carling Academy Brixton on Saturday, March 1st.

Surrender, which is owned by Earn Chen & James Lavelle, carries some of the best street brands in the world including their own store brand also called Surrender. It looks like there will be two sizes for this Bearbrick including a 1000% one and a 400% one. Rumor has it that when the weather gets hot, the Bearbrick will reveal that its wearing a bikini. We’re not sure how that works but it will be interesting to see when they release this Bearbrick.

A follow-up to Surrender’s 2007 Fall/Winter Collection is the Regular Cut Denim which features a traditional straight leg button fly cut, made from the same Japanese denim as that used by Neighborhood. Two different styles are available, processed indigo and processed black denim. The subtlety distressed denim is highlighted by a Surrender along the waistband and Surrender rivets. Available now at Haven, priced at $290 CND (approximately $293 USD).
The music duo UNKLE will embark on the beginnings of their UK/European tour starting November 15th in Manchester. A series of special t-shirts were created which include collaborations with Fragment Design on the UNKLE Live Glitter tee and the black and white Surrender x UNKLE tee. Other items include a limited edition run of 100 tour posters, printed on silver stock. The artwork is based off of the War Stories Cover. The items will be available at all the venues with the exception of the UNKLE Live Glitter Tee which will also be available at DPMHI.
