Timbos anywhere but on my toes…

I’m not really tied to certain labels.  I dig certain looks, and if I find something that I dig, I go with it.  That’s one of the reasons I have some sweet Timberland stuff.  I tend to find Timberland pieces, usually on the cheap, and some of it looks proper.  When it does, sometimes I [...]

Lacoste Jacket

I found this Lacoste piece a year or so ago.  Really nice piece here.  Good wind breaker / light jacket kind of deal here.

It’s got a nice soft jersey liner, which adds a bit of warmth.

Nice collar and good details.

Classic Adidas Sportswear and Running…

Last night I got in a 5K in exactly 29 minutes.  I actually remembered my watch!  I’m not getting a lot quicker, but it’s getting easier, that’s for sure.  Dinner: big glass of OJ and apples!  Nice.
In the spirit of running I thought I’d post a classic:

Here’s the Adidas Firebird Track Top.  Classic, branded, but [...]

A favorite…

Another piece from OneTrue Saxon.  Brilliant coat.  Fully taped seams, high neck, and brillaint hood.

Again, fine detailing from the Casual Tailor.  Nothing like sartorial detailing to make the day brighter.  In this case we have a zip up secondary lining.  When ziped in, the coat is double thickness.  When zipped out the coat is a [...]

OTS 3.0

More OneTrue Saxon gear.  This zip through hoodie is a good one.  VERY warm, this…almost like a fleece lining.  Thick, too. 

 

 
Of course the detail is the mask that is IN the hood. 

 
Pretty nice all around.

A Nice Bit of Woolrich…

The Oi Polloi of Manchester website gives the following brief history of Woolrich:
“The oldest outdoor clothing company in the world, Woolrich was started in 1830 when John Rich opened his first wool factory near Philadelphia.
Initially delivering woollen fabrics, socks and yarn to logging camps on the back of a mule cart, by the 1850s he was [...]

6876 … Kendal Trail Jacket

6876 is pretty amazing.  Check them out here.  I dig the aesthetic, the design, and the concept of the label.  I was very excited to get the Kendal Tail Jacket recently.

This is a super light jacket that looks fantastic.  The polymide material this thing is made from is comfortable, remarkably light-weight and controls temperature pretty [...]

Jacket, Sweet Jackets…

It’s been too long since I posted anything on here about decent clobber.  I have recently invested in two jackets that I am very excited about.  I figured that with the cooler weather, it’s a perfect time for a jacket post.
First up is the Faconnable.

I am quite happy to have found a few pieces in [...]

The Mighty Barbour…

The following is originally from the “A Casual Affair” blog and pod cast site.  I’ve transfered the stuff from that site that I like over here.  This was written 14 Feb. 2007. 

Do those Casuals know coats, or what?  Barbour is an amazing thing, and indeed, the coat that I have from them is a wonder.  [...]
