the noumenal girl

By jon | Published: May 31, 2010
via The Mod Revival Nothing quite like a girl in a pair of pinstripe pants is there? Simple, classic, and understated.  The best thing about cities like New York? There’s girls like this around almost every corner-hailing taxis, walking down the street, even waiting in food cart lines.  The only bad thing about all these amazing [...]

nice sweatshirts

Now that everyone and their mother knows about selvedge, it’s time to find the next new-old technology. While loop-wheeled cotton has been around forever (and hugely popular) I never understood why more brands/labels don’t use it in their products. Loop-wheeling machines weave the cotton in a perfect tube shape. Which eliminates the need for side [...]

apolis activism

Apolis Activism are getting a lot of press lately, and rightly so. Their revamped website is great and their spring/summer offerings are top notch. I actually got to meet Raan Parton a few summers ago in New York.  He couldn’t have  been a nicer guy. We joked and told stories over really nice scotch that [...]

stuff for your girl

The great thing about buying her stuff is that she looks good in anything. You could get her a paper bag and she’d make it work. Give me a Tom Ford suit and I’d still look goofy. I used to love ducks. So much so that I know these are mallard ducks (the boys are [...]

nice spring/summer gear

By jon | Published: March 19, 2010
Jeremy pointed out the awesome Japanese store Uncle Sam to me last night and I have to say, that guy has a pretty sharp eye. What caught my attention the most was the Monitaly gear they have. Monitaly is Yuki Matsuda’s clothing company. Both Yuketen and Monitaly fall under Matsuda’s Meg Company umbrella. While Yuketen is [...]

nigel cabourn x mono workwear journal

By jon | Published: March 16, 2010
When I took a few photos of the Mono Workwear Journal I asked if anyone wanted me to scan anything from it. Jeremy and Nick kindly requested a scan of the Nigel Cabourn story. Ask and ye shall receive. While the story features the A/W ’09 collection, I figured any Cabourn is good. The man, [...]

Jake Davis Test Shots: Jamie Chung from Jake Davis on Vimeo. I have no idea what it is about you girls, a pair of aviators, and a slouchy jacket. I hope you all realize you have boy kryptonite on your hands. If anyone can capture the power of a girl in a cool jacket, it’s [...]

my stuff

By jon | Published: March 9, 2010
The weather has been pretty great these past few days. Not warm exactly, but certainly not cold at all. I know it’s going to drop down again, but I  had to take advantage while it lasted. I picked this shirt up from UrbanOutfitters a while back. It’s pretty decent considering the price point. Buttoned all [...]

stuff for your girl

By jon | Published: March 3, 2010
You always know Spring has arrived when you see girls wearing skirts and dresses. There’s nothing quite like strolling through the city on that first really nice day of the year. It generally takes everyone by surprise, and girls, you never disappoint.  While we may have a few more months before this happens in the [...]
