Description
This week's guest on the pod is Alec Leach, former editor of the product hype website Highsnobiety and author of the book "The world is on fire and we@re still buying shoes". We talk about how he got started in Highsnobiety and what the work there involved, how streetwear brands have changed the way brands market their goods and how tough it is to change the way we consume clothes. Oh, and how a luggage brand brashly proclaimed their handbag could save the planet.You can buy Alec@s book on his website at alecleach.comGarmology is researched, booked, hosted, edited, published, paid for and everything else by Nick Johannessen.

Why do some brands become favorites? - with Nick & Dachi: S00E06: In this episode, my co-host is my friend Dachi from Brighton and we enjoy a Sunday morning chat about brands that find favour with us, and why that is so. We ruminate upon what may make a brand interesting and whether a designer working on his own may be more interesting creatively than design by committee. by Garmology - A podcast about clothes, and stuff.
