Sport isn’t just something you do, it’s a lens, a language and for some, a way of life.
This week Studio Itinerary, dives into the spaces where athletic obsession meets creative expression. From punk-fuelled marathons to football shirts turned fashion statements and the sticker art of skateboarding, these three reads reframe sport as culture in motion. Expect stories of endurance, identity and everything in between.
1. POSSESSED No.60: The Punk Edition
Timed to land alongside the London Marathon, The Punk Issue dives headfirst into the raw, ragged edge where punk and endurance collide. Legendary lensman Steve Rapport kicks things off with an iconic shot of Joe Strummer mid-marathon (or maybe just mid-sprint to catch a bus). Then it’s a full-throttle ride with punk icon Henry Rollins on why performing is its own endurance test, and a deep dive with SATISFY’s Mike Versteeg on skate ramps, race plans, and DIY rebellion.

2. A Culture of Kits
Step into the stylish, obsessive world of football shirt collecting. Culture of Kits is the definitive guide to the cultural rise (and global boom) of vintage football shirts, where nostalgia meets streetwear and Saturday legends become fashion icons.
From the collectors and communities shaping this movement to the businesses transforming kits into commodities, this book explores what makes a shirt iconic and why these polyester relics are fetching big money and even bigger followings. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or a curious newcomer, this is your all-access pass to the art, hype, and history behind the beautiful game’s most beloved fabric. GRAB A COPY
3. Skateboard
From sidewalk surfers to street legends, Skateboard charts the full evolution of the deck that changed everything. This definitive chronicle rolls through seven decades of design from the humble plank beginnings of the 1950s to today’s precision-shaped pro models spotlighting over 100 boards that shaped the sport and subculture.
Developed with Converse and packed with 500+ images, it’s a deep dive into materials, styles, riders, and the cultural movements that defined each era. Every board is photographed to scale, offering a rare look at the shape, size, and soul of the most game-changing decks in skate history featuring legends like Tony Hawk, Laura Thornhill, and Mike Vallely.
Whether you’re a lifelong skater or just love the culture, this book is a must-have tribute to form, function, and fearless design. GRAB A COPY
