Cyberdog has become an integral part of the alternative dance scene with their brand of sci-fi alien-inspired florescent clubwear. You can hear their Camden HQ long before you see it – with hard house pumping from huge stack speakers in their cavernous cybercafe. Alien designs are everywhere, cyber robots line the walls. The clothes are stretchy silver, glow in the dark plastic and t-shirts complete with flashing matrix-style lights. Original and futuristic

4Feetshoes was born in 1989, with our first store located in the heart of Camden Town, London. The store first started by selling the classic 1460 Dr Marten's Boot and people flocked from all across the globe to find their own unique colour of this solid Made in England boot. The "4Feet" idea was set in stone: give the customer a good product and they will travel across the world to find it.
