—01. Real Stuff for Future Classics.

Words

Simon first came across this new book only a couple weeks ago, and now we've just received a small shipment of TooLs. The book showcases 282 items that are noted as 'real stuff for future classics'. That's pretty accurate as the book is filled, page after page with beautifully shot, great products. With the occasional spread and inspiration quote, the book has a great balance of items and is definitely one for the book shelf.

Sophnet Spring Outerwear

—01. Mountain parka & field jacket.

Words

Sophnet continues to produce classic items, with updated fabrics, unexpected tweaks and high prices. This season is one of my favorites in the last couple years and the restrained design of these two jackets is part of that feeling. The nice shades of green are ideal for an outer layer, and they'll go nicely with the shirts below, or the rest of the items within the Sophnet collection. I like the mix of military, mountaineering, prep and streetwear that they provide. It could be argued that these are all of the popular references in menswear at the moment, and most of the time, but not many brands can combine them all in a tasteful manor.

New Workers Items

—01. 2-pocket work shirt.
—02. Triple needle oxford.

Words

I've yet to order myself a personal piece from Workers, but with the latest update, I'm on the verge. Blue oxford and chambray are pretty much a daily guarantee, so both of these shirts would slide nicely into rotation. I've admired the brand and shop for a while, so it feels like its about time to try on one of their classic pieces.

Beams Plus Bow Ties

—01. Camo & tartan bow ties.

Words

The bow tie seems to have had a pretty strong resurgence in the last couple years. Maybe it was always there and I hadn't really noticed, but it feels like they might even be easier, or more enjoyable to wear than a regular neck tie. Beams Plus are never ones to shy away from a playful print or color, so this spring they have made up their cotton bow ties in a classic tartan plaid, along with a more casual camouflage pattern.

—01. Available in 2 colors.
—02. Made in Japan.

Words

For those of us that like our homes to look just as nice as our closet, sometimes we find ourselves lusting after an unexpected item. When I came across these linen trays at Brook Farm General Store I immediately was drawn to their natural tones and nice feel. The trays are definitely useful to have, but the fabric infused into them really makes them feel nice and gives them a natural and strong aesthetic.

—01. Twill pull over jacket.
—02. Denim club collar shirt.

Words

I've been a fan of Patrik Ervell's collections since I first saw them. The simplicity of most of the products combined with nice fabrics and a very restrained design always appealed to me. I've also always like blue and wearing multiple shades of it, so Ervell's collections have always been nice to look at on that tonal level as well. This spring is no different, simple shirting, jackets and chinos round off some of my favorite pieces.
