As part of their Lee Cooper 100 project, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the denim brand, they have collaborated with high end eyewear brand Alain Mikli.
With a passion for innovation, Lee Cooper and Alain Mikli produce eyewear like no other.  Working from his lab in Paris, Alain revived his original 70s model. He proceeded to take apart a pair of 5 pocket Lee Cooper jeans to see what the core ingredients were. Denim aside, he focused on the zip and rivets. Lee Cooper jeans were then infused onto the frame – the first time this has ever been done.
Happy with the frame, Mikli moved onto the lens. Through sheer experimentation, Mikli devised a lens that includes a Lee Cooper zip, with the zipper teeth also carved in – pure imagination and completely conceptual. To match these hand made glasses, Alain designed a case from a Lee Cooper jean with the glasses fitting snuggly inside. What you see is innovation. A complex procedure crafted by a design genius.
At first you think somebody knows how to use Photoshop, but once you realize that its all reality, it is definitely very impressive. Alain Mikli also designed Kanye West’s Shutter Shades, that were reported about in all media and this new Lee Cooper collaboration once again confirms his innovative nature.

Let’s hope this is the last Nike post for the day. Proper just got in a big shipment, what can we do?! We present you some more Nike Dunk Low’s out of their Fall 2008 collection and unlike other sneakers in the line, these also look in terms of colors very much like Fall. 
Nike presents a nice mix of premium leathers, suede and heavy knit textiles on the Dunk Low’s, reminding us of ballistic textiles a little. Here the first two colorways that arrived at Proper.
