Nike Vintage Tees by Wendy Dembo
Last week Nike dropped six t-shirts with vintage graphics from the '70s exclusively at Urban Outfitters. Going hand in hand with the recent release of Nike's "Classic Kicks" (aka the Cortez, Daybreak, Waffle Racer, Oregon Waffle and the LD-1000), the shirts have retro sayings from the era, like " Hot Waffles to Go," " Have a Nike Day" (with a smiley face) and the ever popular, " Just Do It." Available for a limited time in limited numbers, they're $32 a piece. Now it's possible to relive your '70s experience or—if you were born after the age of Aquarius—try it for the first time.

The Working Couple's Cookbook
The "Working Couple's Cookbook," by Peggy Treadwell, is a progressive 1970s book designed for the modern couple with simple recipes that explicitly show the breakdown of how two people can share the duties of creating a meal, whether "roomates, soulmates, playmates, or wedded mates." The wonderfully dated book is full of easy-do-it recipes like baked chicken with spiced crabapples followed by chocolate pudding for...

Homage Tees
Absolutely the softest tees we've found outside of the aged threads at Salvation Army are coming from Ohio. The appropriately named outfit, Homage, pays tribute to sports teams and so much more with their clever graphics and nostalgic sentiment printed onto brand new, worn-out cotton tees. Homage began with a license to distribute Ohio State University gear, but with big aspirations and the desire to...

The Spaceman Watches of 1972-77
All obsessions have their own big bangs and appropriately enough, my own compulsive watch collecting began with the Spaceman watches of the '70s. Below is an article I wrote for QP Magazine reminiscing about going back to the future with these Spacemen. Leaving New York one chilly winter day, late in 1999, I found myself come unstuck in time and arrive in Basel at...

Simboli Zodiac Posters
With their offbeat colorways and swirling psychedelic imagery, it isn't any wonder that Paul Smith snatched up design duo Joe and Gerry Simboli's Zodiac posters and used them in his collections awhile back. Designed in the late '60s, the shapes and lines have a modern feel making for the perfect way to add a little neo-boho to your decor. Posters are 24" x 36",...

Nike Sportswear T-Shirt
This might look like just another t-shirt but with Nike Sportswear there's always an underlying innovative twist. As with any t-shirt, it's all about the fit and fabric. Proudly brandishing the original Nike Sportwear logo, this t-shirt is double layered—Nike's high tech Dri-Fit is used on the inside to wick away sweat and odor and 100% organic cotton on the outside. Soft-hand inks that...
