Stone Island Shadow Project Insulator Vest

—01. Iridescent nylon polyester.

Words

I find a lot of vests on the market to be too heavily filled, and they become too thick to wear under a jacket nicely. Stone Island Shadow Project have produced this insulator jacket in the past and its back again this fall. With an interesting texture in the quilting, it provides the warmth without the bulk, functioning perfectly as a mid-layer.

Nanamica Stretch Wool Cycling Jacket

01-02. Wool 75% , Nylon 24% , Polyurethane 1%.

Words

Nanamica's use of technical fabrications for daily use can't be denied. While the price may be prohibitive for some, the seamless marriage of functionality and fit is undoubtably superior.

Words

The design and furniture store in Toronto, Mjölk, has made a good name for themselves through a beautifully put together store and unique selection of items for the home. Their clean aesthetic and consistent taste transfered well to their first print publication, featuring articles and interviews with a selection of designers and craftsmen that they adore.

Woolrich Woolen Mills Stripe Necktie

01

01-02. 85% Wool, 15% Nylon.

Words

I haven't been wearing too many neckties lately but this mostly wool striped tie by Mark McNairy features a nice combination of colours. Often wool ties can create a bulky knot, but the fabric seems to work nicely for this fall accessory.

Words

After recently reading Let My People Go Surfing, I've been increasingly interested in the story of Yvon Chouinard and Patagonia. The product itself is great, but the story behind the people, the man and the company as a whole is even more impressive.

Margaret Howell Sunglasses Case

01-02. 100% leather.

Words

Simple, useful and conker. Two of those are great attributes for just about anything, and the conker leather happens to work perfectly for this product in particular.

In Stock: Red Wing Oro-Russet Moc Toe

Image

—01. Oro-Russet leather.

Words

There are few boots better than Red Wing's 6" moc toe in my opinion. With all of the options out there, I still find it hard to wear another boot come fall. The Oro-Russet leather has a great red-ish tone, which looks perfect with both chinos and denim.

Levi's Vintage Clothing 60s Striped Tee

01

—01. 100% cotton.

Words

It's somewhat surprising to me that one of the best products in the LVC offering is consistently their t-shirts. However, it is the case and there are some nice plain and striped options this fall.
