Retail Refugees

Retail Refugees is proud to blog about innovation and progress, but it is even more excited to write about these ideas in the context of tradition. Case in point, the Leica M8.2 camera. Leica is one of the most sought after camera brands in the world and has a long history of quality, tradition, and prestige. They recently updated their classic original rangefinder camera with a digital version. I am including this simply because it is a beautiful piece of machinery, technology, and craftsmanship. A product like the iPod can transcend genres and target groups of consumers as it is a new and young brand; however, a true accomplishment is to release a product like this that can garner attention from sources as varied as Kanye West, Myself, Hypebeast and Luminous Landscape.
