New ‘lockdown look’ pays tribute to Sheffield’s bygone clubs of years gone by
Dirty Stop Outs, which creates retro coffee-table books of life in the city, has joined forces with Kelham Print to launch a new range of designer items that celebrates the likes of King Mojo, the Fiesta, the Roxy and the Limit.
With the high street mothballed and many fashion website outlets closed because of broken supply chains, this new line of apparel has been designed and made much closer to home.

Hide AdNeil Anderson, author and editor behind Dirty Stop Outs, said: “I was chatting to a friend last week who was wondering what gift she could find for her dad in lockdown.
“Her dad was a former King Mojo-goer, and I suddenly realised we might have the answer, as all our merchandise is designed and made in Sheffield and we can deliver straight to the door.
“You might not be able to be a Dirty Stop Out but at least you can look good as a Dirty Stop In!”
The clothing range launched earlier this week, and has been inspired by the local ‘walk down memory lane’ that Dirty Stop Outs has made so popular in recent years.

Hide AdThe clothes are designed by Nicola Ogle of Kelham Print, who designs, creates, and ships worldwide from her Sheffield premises.
She said: “I believe clothes should be fun, bold and authentic and I use pop culture for inspiration – these retro clubs had some fantastic ideas!
"Working with Neil on the Dirty Stop Outs collection has been very fascinating; coming from Sheffield, I always used to hear tales from my parents about the nightclub scene of their youth, so delving further into the books and retro iconic imagery of the popular haunts of Sheffield was a great starting point to develop a collection that will hopefully bring back some wonderful memories for Sheffield club goers past."
