Buh-ree-toe




If you find yourself in Manchester in need of fuel, we here at Focus suggest you get yourself along to Barburrito on picadilly gardens. Burritos the size of a babies arm.

Unfortunately as I write this I'm in my way to nandos. Gutted.

Almost done.....





Last trip away to London to see Stussy and Alife and finally the order books for Winter 2011 are almost closed.

Wallride drop 21 - Girl & Chocolate wood.





One thing you can never accuse Girl and Chocolate of is weak graphics and this new drop of wood is no different.

Personal favourites are the super simple Fluorescent series and a reworking of a classic Shortys graphic.
