The Trousers Are Tops!

Rogue Territory makes some really well designed clothes. The materials are some of the best available and they stand by the hand crafted nature they promote. Their Work Trouser is perfect. The fit looks great and comfortable and the build is full of intricate design details one would expect from such a limited edition run of pant. They are currently being featured on Denim Debate, a new site dedicated to displaying the evolution of some of the best denim brands from around the world. I want these... hopefully I can find my size and don't break the bank too much.











I love the pockets on these trousers. The slant pockets in the front with flap covers and the shape of the rear pocket really make these trousers stand out from other jeans out there.

NEW INK!

So I got my first real tattoo the other week and I cannot be more happy about the outcome. I was looking for some sort of pin-up but not too sleazy and something a little out of the ordinary. I came across a Word War 1 recruitment painted by Howard Chandler Christy (pictured at the bottom). It is a classy pic and I might get another "Christy Girl" on my other forearm.

Gitman Vintage Collaborations On My Mind

Gitman Vintage began as a project to take old shirt design and reinvent them. Gitman itself has been around for some time but the offerings by the Vintage brand are phenomenal. These shirts are made in Pennsylvania and fit like no other shirt I have ever worn. I wear my blue oxford a little baggier and my white oxford a little closer to the body.

As of this week a couple new collaborations involving Gitman Vintage has been released and immediately caught my eye. The Tattersall checks are unique and seldom seen in modern fashion lines. I, for one, am impressed. I cannot decide between the Inventory or the Epaulet collaboration. I am leaning towards the Epaulet as the creme base colour adds a little more depth. Not to mention stain hiding ability. Have a look.

Mickey Drexler is the man! He made JCrew what it is today. Listen in at 24:00 minutes. He is genius.
