saturdays and spring courts

By jon | Published: August 10, 2010
I was in New York wandering around the city with a friend when we realized this place was close by. Saturdays has a great feel, cool stuff to look at, and on an annoyingly hot July day, very welcomed iced coffee. They also have a pretty cool outdoor courtyard. Like the shop itself, the courtyard [...]

new york city bound

By jon | Published: July 15, 2010
It’s funny how putting something on the calendar doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll be packed in a timely fashion. I’m headed to New York this weekend. Mostly to catch market week but hopefully I’ll squeeze a little goofing off in. The brands at  (capsule) I’m looking forward to checking out are CREEP by Hiroshi Awai, Folk, [...]

On Wednesday I’ll be in New York City. I’ll also be turning 28. Why not celebrate the twilight of my 20′s in a great city? While the real reason for heading out that way is business, I plan on fitting in as much cheesy nonsense as humanly possible. Which means lots of bad photos, clothes [...]

ENK-Salvatore Piccolo

By jon | Published: January 25, 2010
The ENK show was an amazing experience. AC and company did a great job showcasing the brands as well as providing a nice environment for attendees. Lots of space, lots to see, and lots to do.  Shoe shines, hot shaves, and good food. Add a bunch of really great brands and nice people, and you’ve [...]

For the past five days I’ve been in New York for men’s market week. ENK, Capsule, and a whole lotta cool shops. My cousin came out to the city with me. While he wasn’t terribly interested in all the menswear, he did say “Your internet friends are pretty cool.” Which I appreciated. And they are. [...]

I’ll be in  New York City from the 17th-21st for the capsule and ENK shows. Drop me a line if you’re attending, going to be in  town, or live in the city. I went to the capsule show in July and had an amazing time. Here’s a few shots I took around town. Any favorite [...]

Anyone else going to the (capsule) show in New York? I’m thinking about going and it would be fun to put some faces to blogs and comments. The brand list looks pretty good. Personally I’m looking forward to checking out Garbstore, Post O’eralls, BillyKirk, Our Legacy, and Penfield. Whew. Talk about lions, and tigers, and [...]

stuff to do

By jon | Published: April 28, 2009
If you live in, or will be around NYC this weekend, then I hate you. Be early for the A-Z Collection sample sale and get great deals on all sorts of goodies (shirts, trousers, outerwear, sweaters; everything a boy could dream of). I bet it goes fast.
