Kong

Kong has been trading in Leamington Spa since 1987, making it one of the longer-running independent shops in UK skate and streetwear. Its roots are in punk, and that scrappy, DIY spirit still shows in an edit that mixes skate labels like Nike SB, Polar Skate Co. and New Balance Numeric with harder-to-find names such as Deus, SOULLAND and REAL BAD MAN.

The rest of the rail leans into the wider streetwear and workwear world: Palace, FUCKING AWESOME, Anti Social Social Club and Billionaire Boys Club sit alongside more considered pieces from Stepney Workers Club, Nudie Jeans, Alpha Industries and Fred Perry. Accessories come courtesy of Herschel, RAINS and Oscar Deen, with Stan Ray and Novesta covering the basics. It's a shop for people who've been into this stuff for decades and for those just getting into it, built on genuine skate and street culture rather than passing trends.
