Fennica x Buzz Rickson

—01. Made by Buzz Rickson.
—02. Khaki twill cotton.

Words

I like a wide leg chino and I love a cinch back, so no surprise I like these pants. They actually came out a few months ago, but have been re-released on the Beams x Fennica shop, and are also carried at kapok. I really like the cut of the pants, along with the simple officer style button fly, pockets and cinch back. You really can't go too wrong with these.

Available at Kapok and Fennica

Always Want: Visvim Virgil

—01. Visvim Virgil in sand suede.

Words

Maybe because the spring tones are filling up our shop and our website, the look of these sand suede Virgils just popped out to me again. The Virgils are such a great boot, and I am fortunate enough to have one pair, however, I would gladly trade them for a suede since my are a smooth leather. The light color of these works perfect with these light weight boots, as you can wear them through the spring, summer and fall with ease. Unfortunately the price increases put them beyond reach now, so acquiring a pair feels unlikely to happen any time soon.

Woolrich Woolen Mills Spring Items

—01. Pieces from Daiki's last Woolen Mills collection.

Words

WP Lavori has created something special with Woolrich Woolen Mills. With the change in designers that is in transition right now, it's giving a very traditional brand and product a refreshingly interesting concept, while not taking away from the wear-ability and classic sense of the brand. Daiki Suzuki is one of my favorite designers right now, and although it will be somewhat too bad to see him leave Woolen Mills behind, it will create a renewed interest in both his own brand, and the Woolen Mills collection. Before we have to worry about seasons without Upland shirts, we have one more season from Daiki, which I think looks quite promising. The light colors and good patterns make for a playful, wearable offering, however its still the basics that I'll be stocking up on.

Carhartt Ripstop Digger Coat

—01. Digger Coat.
—02. Olive ripstop cotton.

Words

Carhartt's casual range has been steadily improving over the last few seasons, but its hard to get too far away from their classic models. The Digger coat takes on a lighter weight ripstop cotton this spring which looks really nice to me. The mustard of the logo and timeless work coat style works nicely with this fabric and it creates an easy to wear garment.

In Stock: Engineered Garments Spring Collection

—01. Classic shirt in madras cotton.

Words

As you can tell from the number of brands featured on our site, there aren't a ton that I get too excited about. Engineered Garments is definitely one of them however, and its an exciting time when new deliveries start rolling into the shop. This week we received our first spring delivery from Engineered Garments and its filled with great pieces. We bought the collection with a strong sense of color, tone and fabric. It's a nice mix the different blues, great patterns and a lot of soft cottons; from poplin to twill to madras. The shipment includes shirting, accessories and some really nice jackets in the Bedford and Cruiser styles.
