Brixton Culture Capital 06.11.2025
Brixton’s Own Jordan Myrie-Taylor Restores the Game on ITV
When you look at your trainers, do you see culture? Jordan Myrie-Taylor does. The Brixton-born creative behind The ReStore—a new sneaker restoration series from Renaissance Studios now streaming on ITVX and YouTube—is showing the nation that style, sustainability and storytelling walk the same streets.
Filmed with a full Brixton crew—including sneaker scientist Laarif Ali, artist Brandon Walker, and designer Liz Sanya—the show revives more than shoes. It restores pride, craft, and memory, with guest appearances from icons Linford Christie and OBE, Colin Jackson CBE,. Executive producer Olympia Christie keeps it rooted.
Every sole tells a story. Go watch The ReStore on YouTube and show Jordan some love.
