Darren Shaddick x EH9 | ESPRESSO
In today’s fast paced world, collaboration is becoming a great way in which to slow everything down and create the meeting of minds. You may recognise these designs and similarities with our logo or previous graphics, and you would be right. When opening our shop back in 2021, we reached out to Darren Shaddick who created our wee guy chugging along with his espresso machine. Now we are teaming up again to release our newest T-shirt as well as our brand new recyclable coffee cups.
Darren is located in the rural sticks of North Devon in the UK, who specialises in quirky and bright graphics and has worked with a wide variety of brands across his time of operating. We are absolutely chuffed with how these turned out and can’t wait for you guys to see them in the flesh. We would highly recommend checking out Darren’s other artwork either on his website, or on his Instagram.
When planning this collaboration, we really wanted to focus on producing our own recyclable disposable cups which will hold your favourite brew, but also tell a story. You lot seemed to love the colourful cups, and quickly became a staple on sharing experiences with us online, so we wanted to take this to the next level. We also wanted to continue our quest on ensuring sustainability by making sure that our new disposable cups are fully biodegradable and ensure no harm to the environment. The graphic came from our surrounding area and the people, experiences we have everyday. We are so lucky to operate within such a lovely environment on the Perth Rd, which can sometimes be out of the ordinary, passionate, and vibrant. Therefore, we tried to emulate this within our new design. The more you look at it, the more you will see. From our friends over at Le freak and friends, to where some of you troops chill over at DJCAD. Additionally, you will be able to wear this design! that’s right, a brand new T is available now priced at £28.50. Featuring a double sided screen printed design. This heavyweight T, is a great base layer for any wardrobe, as well as showing off your more colourful side.
You can now purchase the Darren Shaddick T’s both in store and online. We will also be rolling out the new cups in the next few days so hold tight, before we know it we are sure they will be everywhere.
