Since I’ve been a kid, I’ve heard these been given quite a few names from tough guy hat, newsie cap, driving cap, etc etc. Anyways, I’ve been wearing a lot of these as of late. Perfect for a rainy, dreary day that occur a lot here in the city or possibly if you end up [...]

With that said, I’m torn to [...]

I got a little nervous when I first heard about Oi Polloi, which is my favorite store I’ve never been to, doing a collaboration with the classic outerwear kings, Gloverall. Most collaborations these days just don’t do the original and the newcomer much justice. However, I was very pleased to see that the folks at [...]

The Rig-Out II is coming soon, and I was fortunate to receive a teaser. This new issue will have some heavy hitters like Daiki Suzuki (of Woolrich Woolen Mills and Engineered Garments) and The Special’s Felix Hall Esq’s son taking part.

The wonderful people at Levi’s gave me a peek at what they have coming up for us all next Spring. On the men’s side, there are a couple of new models and specifications that they tinkered with, but by-and-large about the same garments we’ve loved growing up. The women’s options were a bit larger with [...]
