With the launch of INVENTORY we aimed to go a step further than h(y)r collective. It wasn't really supposed to be a re-brand, rather it's a new brand built around our biggest venture yet, a printed magazine. Volume 01 Number 01 is due to arrive in our hands for release at the end of next week. The magazine has taken a lot of hard work and effort from a (very) small group of passionate individuals and it has turned into something special right before us. I don't want to get too far into how important the project is to me personally right now, instead I just want to let you know a little about it to begin with. The magazine will be retailed in the Inventory Stockroom, for $20 USD – as well as at select retailers around the world. The bi-annual magazine has been produced not just as a catalogue of what's happening right now, but as a way of telling stories and curating a certain aesthetic, product and feeling. It carries a higher price tag not only because we feel the magazine's content holds value, but also because the tangible product itself comes at a cost as we chose to print here at home in Canada. With little advertising, buying it is the absolute best way you can support our work and efforts to create something good. The focus has always been to produce something we would love to find and see ourselves, and it's been wonderful to see the reaction over the last couple of years. We are very proud to present the first offering from Inventory Magazine this fall.

Number 01 features; Yuketen, Willo Perron, Nigel Cabourn, Mister Freedom and Engineered Garments. There are focus articles on Duluth Pack and Chris Gibbs, and we've featured Collection No. 9 from Nom de Guerre in an editorial spread, among others. There are 140 pages of 100% original photography, words and thoughts – and we hope you enjoy it. Thank you to everyone involved and who has supported the making of this magazine.

I wil def buy it a Teneu De Nimes, any idea when to look for it?
great!!.. i cannot wait to pick this one up and hopefully more issues in the future
140 pages? Christ...
It looks really good chaps, im a little worried now.
No Toronto stockists?
Surely Nomad would be interested...?
Will you have any retailer in Sweden, preferably Stockholm?
We are talking to Nomad and other shops still. We had our heads pretty stuck into the actually production, now that its at the printers, we are trying to push the wholesale. These shops have placed orders at this point, and I wouldn't be surprised to see the list grow in the next month.
Thanks for the nice comments so far.
Hey Guys,
Excellent work so far. It is very admirable as well as inspiring, that you have been able to take something you love and are passionate about, and turn it into your day job. I wish that more people would do the same as it is completely achievable, if you want it to be. Respect.

Looking forward to purchasing it at SURRENDER. I am pleasantly surprise that I can buy it locally. Good job.
how much is shipping to norway? not to pricy? Tresbienshop and secret socity could be potensial stockists in Scandinavia?
anyway, looks great, big ups!
Yup, I am down for a copy! Looks like a lot of great stuff in there.
How much would shipping be from your store for just the magzine? To Canada that is.
Our shipping rates are still to be determined. We need to get a couple final copies here and find out for sure at the post office. We of course want to offer the best possible price we can so that more people can get themselves a magazine.

Looks great! Can't wait to pick one up when I am in London in a couple of weeks.
Looking forward to ordering a copy.
$20 for a muddahfuggin' magazine! insanity!
Looks incredible. Can't wait to add it to my must have publications list. You guys continue to bring it!
I wish I owned that Visvim camo jacket that Chris Gibbs is wearing.
