O-tags are the invention of a cool German geezer called Axel. It is part of his mission to record moments in black history via this unisex accessory. When we came across Axel and his o-tags, we had to ask him if it would be possible to immortalise the great Jimmy and so we are chuffed to be able to bring you this o-tag/fuk.co.uk collab, the GJ tag.
The spec on the tags from the makers:
"o-tag is a classic item of street culture in a new shape, all handmade with the best of heavy duty old school manufacturing.
We use only purest Aluminium (no nickel added) and thus give it the authentic look (please note that due to the nature of the material, o-tags will show wear - nothing major)."
Here's the design for the GJ tag.
The gold can't be replicated very well here, it'll look a whole lot better in reality.
Production status update from Axel, the man behind o-tag.com who are producing the GJ tags:
"It's looking good, tools are done and they came out really well and embossing starts today! I should be able to pick them up tomorrow for the next phase - anodizing which, if lucky, will be done by friday/beginning next week. Then they are off to painting... so better calculate another 2-2 1/2 weeks."
So we should be sending them out the beginning of October.
There is an initial limited run of 50 being made. Price: £20 (+p&p).
