What's new in the world of men's street wear, hip hop and urban clothing? Look no further check out The Urban Times, all the latest and your old favourites. We've even put together a few pages on hip hop history, streetwear and
skateboard clothing trends but we don't tell you what to wear, we believe and live in mash culture and the mixing and blending of urban clothing styles, looks and fashions to create something new. As hip hop legend Afrika Bambaataa once said "we may be hip hop heads but start looking through our vinyl collections
and you'll find other types of music" and it's the same with the clothes in our wardrobes. Sometimes, for work, we may have to wear other clothes and we can even help with smarter looking apparel but still from core urban clothing and street wear companies that will give that look and have that little edge. Check out The Urban Shop Clothes Auctions and which hip hop brands, urban clothing and street wear brands are selling fast on Todays Top Sellers.

Spring is in the air but you don’t want to be casting off those winter jackets just yet. Spring does give you a few more clothing options and layering of t-shirts with over shirts, full zip hoodies and heavy weight knits is still popular. I personally like to mix a mad nu rave t-shirt design with solid full zip hood, it covers all the bases and is a cool streetwear look that can be rocked from New York to good old London village. We have the very best urban clothing, street wear ranges, hip hop inspired clothing, skate, surf apparel and even a few snowboarding companies like Zimtstern spreading their wings into the streetwear look. So what new clothing styles and brands have arrived so far? Well we have lightweight and shower proof rain jackets from Dephect and Temple Effectives plus Know1edge with their famous Diamond collaboration jeans have all the urban clothing items you will need, from t-shirts to leather bomber jackets.

Some of the clothing companies we stock on a regular basis like Addict, Fenchurch, One True Saxon and Zoo York and some we don't, like Maharishi, Stussy, Volcom, LRG, and Superdry clothes.
Fourstar it was long time ago that we last said we had new Fourstar cloting in stock andn at teh best back then it was patchy maybe the odd t-shirt design or if we were lucky polos but that's all changed hopefully. Just in jeans and leghtweight jackets from Fourstar, we are sure that we ordered a lot more styles so hopefully they will arrive shortly.
Nomis New Era caps have just arrived. Allover printed caps with heavy Nomis Logo embroidery, everyone a winner.
Zoo York, mainly new t-shirt designs just arrived but also more Matt Weber prints on board shorts and a t-shirt.
Matix, a big delivery from Matix Clothing which covers about every item of clothing you can thing of. We have many items from the sub-brand White Label which offers more directional fashion wears ie organic denim jeans. Also in the Asher which is a padded full zip hoodie that I've been rocking for the last 2 months and I wouldn't be without one, Loads of new Matix t-shirt plus Miner and Daewon Song Jeans.
DVS have been rockin the sub-range call Luxe and we have just taken delivery of t-shirts from this range based around the theme Original Intent also in are the J Dubbs Diamond Supply Co colaboration t-shirts and New Era caps which are very hot right now.
Lakai is really a skateboard shoe brand but it is a core skate brand formed by Mike Carroll and Rick Howard who are both legends in the skateboarding world, anyway we wanted to support the guys so you'll find a few t-shirts here.
Rogue Status the conspiracy is on, more t-shirts from the masters, get them quick as we are selling most back to the USA, Rogue Status is a massive brand over there with a followers such as Rob Dyrdek and Travis Barker.
Orisus denim has arrived included the Stack in both gold and raw, these jeans are the coolest you will find in the UK. We did mention the double waist jeans earlier this year in the Urban Shop Blog so give it a read, if the double waists are a bit too radical for you there's the Phenomenon, also in a cool lightweight jacket check teh close up image and another custom hoodie.
Diamond Supply Co new t-shirt designs and the Heavyweights and J Dubbs crew neck Sweatshirts now in grab the quick before the Americans buy them all back.
Nomis has just been added to The Urban Shop another quality streetwear brand that has deep roots in snowboarding. Nomis clothing was formed around 2000 by two brothers Mat and Andre Chamberlain, they set it up to give their snowboarding friends Nomis t-shirts and frrm there things just developed. The clothing range contains siganture hoodies, caps, jeans and t-shirts from sponsored riders Simon Chamberlain on snow and Ronson Lambert on skate.
Pyromaniac was the brain child of Cantwo and Stickupkids both grafifit artists that ahd collaborated on work before. This collection is ahead of the game with all over print that almost look like camo using text but the real strength is in the manufacturing. Pyromaniac seemed to have dropped ona top factory here and they have produced quality t-shirts, hoodies andn crews with top of the range fabrics nothing has been spared but price have been kept competative.
Razk always ahead of the game in t-shirt design these Euro based graffiti and graphic designers draws together the best that the underground has to offer to bring fresh t-shirts designs from artist you may not have heard of.
Ambiguous one of the major design influences on many of the big US clothing brands that we deal with this season has been fixed gear racing. Fixed gear bikes in the US are mainly ridden by couriers and that the style that's coming though. At night these couriers are turning the streets of major city's in to race tracks, it's madness there's even fix gear biker gangs over there. So Ambiguous is one of the brands that has picked up on it and you can see it most on the all over printed hoodies, but also in the fit of the shorts and t-shirts like Steamroller.

Eleven may be a new name to you and street wear in general but these guys like many at the moment have a long background in making technical snowboard outerwear. As they have progressed in their scene their followers have wanted their clothing brand to wear off the slope and on the streets. Eleven have managed to carry across all the good things that they have learnt about technical wear and incorporated it to make original, detailed and quality street wear clothing. Check them out on The Urban Shop Blog for an over view.

Obey 08 is in the house. We have loads of experience with the work of Shepard Fairey and the Obey experience and we put this to work when we selected these t-shirt designs and we feel we have a the perfect balance of Obey art designs, Andre the Giant icon designs and Obey has a Posse, but Obey is not only t-shirts and we also have full zip hoodies and Obey military jackets.
Mada Just about everything you can think of has arrived from Mada, jeans, jackets loads of t-shirts very strong designs again this season, full zip hoodies plus accessories belts, wallets and fitted caps.

It’s been a big drop from Ambiguous clothing and the UK is catching on to the board style streetwear crossover style that Ambiguous are producing.
Zimtstern has it’s snowboarding roots but like many clothing brands has developed the streetwear clothing side for off the slopes. Zimtstern streetwear wouldn’t look out of place in a Nu Rave club with it’s vibrant colours, mad prints and the bling of the gold foil hoodies, but you will still find classical styling with that little twist that can be worn anywhere and by anyone.
