Words

The sad fact of the matter is, my head isn't long enough, or otherwise the right shape to wear this hat. Which doesn't stop me admiring it's many varied fabrics atop the head of somebody else. If this style works for you, you could do much worse than picking up this seasons khaki coloured iridescent twill version.

—01. Reverse Weave.
—02. Made in USA.

Words

While I know several advocates of this particular look, I've never actually tried a short sleeve sweater for myself. The only examples of this type of garment I've seen in the flesh have been vintage, and none have ever been close enough to the right fit and size for me to try them on. These new arrivals at Silver & Gold, from the Japanese licensed Champion brand, are pretty tempting though, and they look to be a nice item to pick up for the current in-between season we're experiencing here in New York.
