'There were times when I thought it would be too much to bring it back and relaunch it, but you persevere with things.'
G69 Clothing, from designer Mark Bradley, was founded in 2014 but last released a collection in 2018 after Mark was diagnosed with colitis and had to leave the label"on the back burner".
"I’m speaking to Glasgow manufacturers to focus on bespoke, individual designs and that kind of thing, so I’m hoping something can come of that." Mark was diagnosed in October 2018 and had to undergo three operations in the space of two years, including having a full colectomy and having a stoma bag fitted."Over a period of two years, I had three operations, so I was really unwell with it."I’d gone from being fit and healthy and 11/ 12 stone down to eight within 10 weeks."But between getting through that and then the pandemic hitting, it wasn’t the best time to pick it back up again.
"One of the things we did recently was we updated the Instagram so part of that was archiving all of the old images. As well as the new products, best sellers from the label and the collection with Glasgow-based artist Andy Hurst, of Hidden Hand Art, were displayed, while Duke Street barbers Urban Funk did live demos and haircuts and Praline On Me served their sweet treats.
