The General Research brands are really good. Each branch specializing in their own little department and aesthetic but feeling right together as a whole is a difficult feat to pull off. This Miners shirt is one of the most interesting pieces that are currently in stock. The pull over cotton indigo shirt isn't your usual, and I don't think you're going to find this one at a local vintage shop. As usual, Mountain Research go fairly deep into their reference with the 4 pocket shirt. The tab collar, tonal buttons and reinforced chest pocket are great subtle details that round off a great take on what's become a common item. It may be a little over the top for some people, but I'm into it. It can look great and I haven't been one to pay attention to the 'costumey' term being thrown around lately. It's available on the Mountain Research website for about $250.

wow... wow wow. this is beautiful. I am into it too.
only if it had more pockets
I got the proxy on it. I'm responsible for using the costumey term but that's been some time ago. This shirt could look costumey it just depends what you wear with it. Here's the right way to wear it minus the socks. http://mistermort.typepad.com/mister_mort/page/3/ *Scroll half way down the page.

sorry, here's a link back to ACL with said patent...http://www.acontinuouslean.com/2009/08/25/classic-goods-from-the-u-s-patent-office/
Not too sure if this is the same company. But if it it is where they design their products, I am very jealous.
