American brand Zippo has announced the launch of a limited edition lighter collection with British fashion designer Christopher Shannon. In four unique designs, Shannon celebrates the hedonism of nights out with friends. Each lighter in the collection showcases memories of colourful scenery taken from archive imagery by photographer Jason Evans. Distorted Christopher Shannon artwork inspired by the style of T-shirt slogans of the past feature on the reverse. Christopher Shannon said: “I wanted each lighter in the collection to feel like a memento; something you give to a friend after a night out. It’s a nod to the fact that Zippo lighters have this unique life span that can see them take on different owners over the years. The limited run of just 300 Zippo x Christopher Shannon windproof lighters will be available from October 12 online priced at £40.
