mayamada August 8, 2014 No Comments

After some weather delays we finally got to do our latest photoshoot in Shoreditch, on a sunny day no less.

We had a great team with us and came back with a selection of new photos including shots of our new “SAMURAI” snapback and beanie hats which will be on the ASOS Marketplace later in August.

Check out our sneak peak look at behind the scenes of the shoot.

London Anime & Gaming Con

mayamada May 18, 2014 No Comments

We’ll be making another appearance at the London Anime & Gaming Con this July 5th and 6th and we’ve got a lot in store for you.

A bit hit at February’s LAGC, and we’re bringing a new summer colour way of the popular Norio t-shirt design plus Norio phone cases for iPhone 4, 4S and 5.

You’ll also get to check out the upcoming Samurai Chef inspired snapback caps and get 10% off when they are released later in summer.

And last but not least, we’re bringing the Character Trail game to LAGC!

Find and scan the 7 mayamada characters hidden around the Rocket Complex for a chance to win a mayamada prize bag including t-shirts and comics.

Each character will give you letters that you have to rearrange to get the secret word. The first person to complete the game and say the secret word at the mayamada stall will win.

You can get your tickets right here. Stay tuned details of this and our other activate and next month’s London Anime & Gaming Convention!

This past bank holiday weekend saw our return to StreetFest, held in Hackney for the first time. It was an amazing celebration of streetwear fashion, music, skaters and artists all under one roof (figuratively speaking).

Here are some of the moments we captured on the day, you can check out or Facebook page for the rest.

Earlier this month we meet up with music artist Jaunty to shoot some video for a new mayamada project. Spring hadn’t quite hit London yet but Jaunty was out in his “When A Plan” tee as we spent the morning filming.

Check out Jaunty on Bandcamp for his latest tracks and stay tuned for the final video in the coming weeks.

London Anime & Gaming Con

mayamada February 12, 2014 No Comments

We spent this past weekend at the London Anime & Gaming Con. As usual it was a good mix of the wacky and wonderful in a relaxed community environment.

The event also saw us give our first Q&A panel at any convention. We were given the opportunity to talk on stage about the brand and characters, Samurai Chef included, as well as the manga we create.

It was a great two days seeing some cool cosplayers, meeting new fans and we even saw a marriage proposal!

Take a look at some of our photos, and head over to our Facebook page to say hi if we met you at LAGC.

Photoshoot Behind The Scenes

Whenever we put together a photoshoot we always hope to work with a great team. Somehow we keep getting lucky because once again we found ourselves working with an amazing group of photographers, make up artists and models.

We set up shop at Workrate Studios in East London to go through the new collection. Take a look at what we got up to and stay tuned for online preorders next month!

We had fantastic make up people throughout, keeping the models look their best.

Pre orders on the new hoodie will begin in October. Get ready!
