clothing label toke is looking for stockists worldwide and would love any insider information on good shops anywhere in the world. they are currently stocked in edinburgh, leeds, manchester and singapore.
any contacts that lead to them being stocked will be rewarded. http://www.tokeworld.comcheers.

I like the rollin stones tshirt

unbelievably, not everyone gets it!
do you know any cool shops? I know its cheeky of us to ask but we want to know form the people who like our stuff, where they would expect to buy it. (without sounding too worthy).

I don't know many cool shops, the sales assistants haircuts in those sort of shops scare me a little so I do most of my tshirt buying online.
Also, you said you were already in Leeds. I don't imagine Huddersfield has much different to offer to Leeds.
http://www.airlifestyle.com might be worth a punt but I only found them searching google so I can't be sure they stock your kind of stuff.
- ash-20
thanks anyway. didn't realise you were in huddersfield.
we've got a competition on at the moment to win 4 t shirts, if you're interested. Its cool if you're not.

In London, an apt place would be Magma design shops:

Hey Ash-2
checked out your tees and site nice stuff.. one thing I thought you could do to perhaps make your stuff more marketable is get your t-shirts printed on organic hemp tees from my mates that run THTC clothing.
http://www.thtc.co.uk/welcome.ph…
I would seriously look at printing on theses for a few reasons
One they are top quality heavy weight tees
two they are organically and ethically produced
and three by getting in with them they might be able to point you in the right direction of stockists..
Let me know if you want to get a hold of them!
- ash-20
thanks for that -
I'll check out your suggestion on shops.
I wouldn't mind speaking to the hemp guys, we're always up for new ideas. It depends on the quality and how they wash etc. it took us so long to find the right style of tee that we use now. they've been washed, slept in, lounged in because we want them to be right. please let me know your guys details and i'll get in touch.

where sell toke in de edinburger?
- ash-20
Not quite sure how to take this. If you don't like our stuff then fair enough, don't buy it.
You might quite like the unknown bit on the site...it might even make you laugh.

Godiva, just off the Grassmarket. Used to be AKA (if you know that).
Its a coll boutique shop that has just started selling mens gear. They've got some good stuff in there, and they host top parties.

Try Ethos Menswear in Derby.
They stock a few independant brands.
No website, but might be worth giving them a ring.

yeah i know it. i used to live basically above it (well top floor above the large gate beside it).
neat lil shop and have been in a few times. will keep my eyes peeled for toke gear :)
- ash-20
thanks I'll check them out. if they are right for us and they stock our stuff, I'll personally send you a tee.
- ash-20
great, they've also got some of our polo shirts in there too. these are exclusive to godiva.
don't know if you know the human be-in bar. we've got some canvases in there. its a cool bar, you should check it out, good food too.
- 23kon0
yeah the human bee-in is a nice bar - good crowd.
shall keep my eyes peeled for those canvases too.
so do you know folk up here at those places or did you spend some time up here in the summer pimping your wares?
- designerror0
wtf! is it monday morning in toketown? lighten up dude
- ash-20
We know quite a few people in Edinburgh and Glasgow....lived up there for a while. The canvases went up for the festival and have been up ever since because people really liked them. There's some really funny copy that goes with them. It explains a few of the graphics on the t shirts, like where's nanna and top hat.
You should check them out if you get a chance. I'd be interested to know what you think.
