A fall/winter staple, the Levi's crew is taken from a pattern done in the 1950s which is composed of all the classic elements, ribbed cuffs, saddle sleeves and v-shaped insert.

Yuketen Wingtip Gillie

01

Info

—01. All black everything.

Words

It's pretty rare that I like all black shoes. I can probably count on one hand how many pairs I'd actually like to own. When I saw these wingtip Gillie Mocs in Yuketen's Hermosa Beach showroom, I was immediately drawn to them. The grain of the leather, the way the broguing is more subtle in black, and of course the nice touch of the ripple sole top them off very well.

Inverallan for Inventory Items Bubble Knit Caps

01

Info

—01. Available in navy, natural, wine & black.

Words

It's the first time we've received our Inverallan order at the beginning of the season, and we're also excited that this is our best delivery from the Scottish knitters we've ever received. Along with a pair of beautiful shawl collar cardigans, we've produced a new style of the knit cap. It's called the 'Moss' cap and with a nice bubble knit pattern, the hats are a bit less bulky and a little bit more shallow than last fall. They turned out really great, the only problem is choosing which color to get.

—01. Gitman Bros. BD shirt.
—02. Ralph Lauren Beacon shirt.

Words

Nitty Gritty have received some new fall items including some great shirts. While florals and polka dots are great, they seem to be popping up in a lot of places this fall. These shirts feature some pattern and color, but in a slightly different display. I especially like the Ralph Lauren shirt, although it might not be the easiest to pull off.

Porter Reef Waist Pack

01

Info

—01. Available in blue and red.

Words

After getting some good use out of my MEC waist pack, I am still keeping an eye out for something a bit more interesting. This pack is just about the same size, and provides the same function, but the two-tone blues with the hit of the Porter label and the leather pulls looks quite nice.

Words

Fog Linen Works make some great household items. Along with their good choice of fabrics and clean design, they also produce some nice books, catalogs and a bit of clothing. Old Faithful have a couple of linen beach towels I've been thinking about picking up, but that would mean I'd have to find time to go to the beach.

—01. Cover.
—02. Interior spread.

Words

Oi Polloi have recently released their second edition of their shop/shopping guide for the season. The Pica-Post zine was really nicely done the first time around and looks much the same for No. 2. It's definitely worth snatching if you're spending money online or making your way through Manchester.
