For the 3rd time Reigning Champ teamed up with retailer Haven on a collaborative product. Known for their high quality heavy fleece, the two worked on a fleece varsity jacket. The jacket comes in a classic black/white colorway with shawl collar and rolled up cuffs. A nice classic piece, now available for 180 USD.

The new BRKNHome Spring/Summer 2009 Collection has been released. We always appreciated the subtle nature of the Canadian brand, that is known for placing strong, yet not very colorful, graphic onto their t-shirt collections. Their new collection also features collaborations with Reigning Champ on two short-sleeve sweaters and with boutique Haven on a couple of t-shirts. The collection is now available at Haven.

After their successful 2 year anniversary collaboration with Reigning Champ, Haven is at it again with their second set of HAVEN x Reigning Champ Hoodies.

Available in both Black and Heather Grey, these collaboration colorways will be available starting Saturday, Febuary 7th at 11:00 am GMT and will be sold exclusively at HAVEN and www.havenshop.ca in limited quantities.

Tomorrow, Saturday, December 13, 2008, Haven will be celebrating our second birthday in-store. To commemorate the occasion, we’ve teamed up with Brknhome, and Reigning Champ on some very special collaboration items that will officially launch Saturday night.

They got together with fellow Canadian brands Brknhome and Reigning Champ on a couple of collaborative items to mark the occasion. Both brands represent the best of what Canada has to offer.

The Reigning Champ x Haven zip hoodies feature RC’s classic heavyweight fleece bodies, and they added some subtle details such as a leather zipper tassel and double branded waist patch both made from premium grade Alberta Leather. To round it out, Haven added subtle 3 stars embroidery on the chest, keeping the garment clean and easy to wear. The hoodies are available in the Tonal Black on Black or the Heather Grey with black detailing in limited quantities.

Next up is Haven’s collaboration with Vancouver¹s Brknhome. The duo of Joshua Pong and Kenta Goto came up with a great design that really reflects Haven’s Edmonton and Alberta roots. There is a subtle nod to the city’s famed hockey team, the Edmonton Oilers. In addition, blazed across the front is Alberta’s motto: Œfortis et liber’ or Œstrong and free’, which is echoed in the Canadian national anthem. The t-shirts come in both black and white with the collaborative design gracing the front and back.

Both Reigning Champ x Haven and Brknhome x Haven collaborations will be releasing in store on the night of Saturday Dec 13,2008. The following day Sunday Dec 14,2008, both collaborations will be released on the online shop. Also be on the lookout for the Maiden Noir x Haven ŒThe Great North Collection.

A solid new piece comes from the new Original Fake Fall/Winter 2008 collection – the Sweat Cardigan. It comes with oversized buttons, stand-up collar, Chomper detailing and Kaws XX embroidery on the cuffs. The interesting part is that it has azipper and the buttons on top of that. A very classic looking piece with subtle details and of course as its produced in Japan, of superb quality.

Haven has the Original Fake Sweat Cardigan in stock now.

More pics follow after the jump.

Now at Haven, the Original Fake Rotted Logo tee has all the elements we’ve come to expect from Kaws. The cross eyes logo appears in tonal embroidery on the sleeve. Shirt is 100% cotton.

Just recently we gave you a look at the Original Fake Quilted Hoodie, matching that the brand has now released the quilted longsleeve button up. The shirt comes with a zig zag stitched all-over pattern, features over-sized buttons and the usual embroidered Kaws crosseyes on the cuffs. It is now available at Haven.

A few weeks ago we gave you a first look at some Stussy Deluxe Spring 2008 items. Here now some more of the collection, which just landed at Haven.
Stussy continues to present a rather subtle collection, concentrating less on graphics and more on cuts and quality. Hoodies comes with stripes or with the DLXE print, jackets are sharp and shirts come in classic patterns. In terms of branding you can most of the time only find a purple embroidered dot under the neck. The line takes its inspiration from Japan and fuses it with western styles.
We like the collection, but think that Stussy still has some communication to do and explain to the customer out there why they should pay elevated prices for this new collection. Check out some more styles after the jump.

First pieces of the new Reigning Champ Spring 2008 collection have been released. The brand stays true to its principle and keeps it basic. The new collection brings once again their popular zip hoodies and crewneck sweaters in fresh new colors. These pieces are now available at Haven.
Expect more pieces in this collection soon, including t-shirts, longsleeve t-shirts and more!
