Oak Street Bootmakers is a small company that makes the kind of boots our grandfathers wore, by hand, one at a time. Founder and designer George Vlagos apprenticed in his father’s shoemaking company as a child and founded Oak Street as a way to keep the old methods alive for another generation.
I’m going through a bit of a tee buying frenzy in the lead up to summer, this beautiful and understated design by The Lovewright Co….
Iron & Resin are a great surf and motorcycle centric boutique clothing company based in California, all their gear is handmade in the USA one piece at a time and they’ve just released their Spring 2012 line.
We love this vintage homage tee from the official Ohio State University…
Roland Sands Design have taken a big step into the motorcycle gear arena with their new clothing collection, this pair of gloves called “Diesel” are a standout item from the collection that we all love.
This jacket, dubbed the “Chapter Jacket” is part of the new Icon 1000 line, it’s made from 100% Brazilian cowhide, has reinforced seams and zippers as well as a full set of CE approved impact protectors in the shoulder, elbow and back areas.
The Dehen company history is a story of 2 brothers, the prohibition, illegal liquor runs from Canada, time in prison and finally, the founding of Dehen Garment Company. This Varsity V-Neck is the identical model sold in the 50’s and 60’s and can be seen in vintage photographs, usually on the sidelines of college football fields.
Carroll Shelby is an American icon with a habit of turning out cars that go on to reach icon status minutes after they roll off the production line.
Suixtil is a company with a remarkable racing history, they dressed both Stirling Moss and Juan Miguel Fangio throughout the 1950’s with both Moss and Fangio wearing Suixtil in the car as they took multiple wins and F1 World Championships.
The Elsinore Boot by Icon is part of their all new Icon 1000 range, the collection is made up of no-nonsense helmets, boots, clothing, gloves and other gear, largely designed to survive and thrive in a post apocalyptic, overrun-with-zombies future-scape from hell. Meaning they’ll be able to handle your regular commute without blinking an eye.
With the fast approach of summer our attention slowly shifts to sunny days at the beach and long drives down coast roads. This retro tee from Roland Sands Design captures the spirit of a summer well spent
I love finding little boutique clothing manufactures that still produce garments the same way they did when Blower Bentleys roared around Brooklands. GRP is a little Italian knitwear maker based in Carmignano, this is their Vintage Flight Vest and I like it a great deal.
