Cool Hunting
As it's World Cup day here on CH, we thought we'd get together some of the things that have caught our eye and give them away. The top prize includes:
Umbro by Kim Jones hoodie in red and blue. As seen in the piece today, and in a size of your choice. Perfect to keep warm, and cool, on the terraces or in front of the tv.
Once In A Lifetime soundtrack CD. Reviewed on CH today and ideal to get you in the right mood for any match - even Iran Vs Angola.
iPod Gelaskin. Thanks to Jamie from Gelaskins, you'll also get one of their excellent ultra low-profile skins for your iPod (pictured below), so it won't get scratched when you celebrate Ecuador's third goal against Germany...
Five runners-up will also get a Gelaskin of their choice. The full range is at their website.
To enter, we want you to answer the following question in one, succinct sentence:
Who is the coolest footballer ever?
