Three On Thursday – The National

Sublow Clothing – Stylish, Cool and Cornish

When I spotted Sublow on twitter I knew they were a brand I could connect with. Sublow was founded by Rich and Didi, who both met at Falmouth Uni and after finishing have stuck around to enjoy all that Cornwall has to offer. They share a love of music, skating and free-living which is represented in their stylish designs. There are three big things I like the most about Sublow: Number One The design and styling of Sublow clothing…
