“A slim moccasin for Winter” is probably what the Fred Perry design team was thinking when they designed this shoe. The “Aldwych Suede Shoe” comes in a supple tan or gray color in a lace-up front with tonal rubber sole. Like all things Fred Perry, these shoes have the crest on the back ankle of both shoes. I would personally Snowseal the shoe so it could withstand the rain and have a darker color to it. A solid silhouette with a great design, FP strikes again. The shoe is available at Gargyle.

Love the Daft Punk in the bow ties and knits.. “Dazed’s December issue presents a world exclusive feature and 3D cover shoot with robot dance titans Daft Punk.

01. The Tiger Stone: A Contraption that “Prints” Roads
“This machine that lays down ready-made brick road—some are calling it a “road printer”—really grabbed the internet’s attention this morning (exhibits one, two, and three).” (Good)
02. How can Silvio Berlusconi still be in power?
“Silvio Berlusconi is still the leader of one of Europe’s most important countries. Talk of bribing lawyers, proximity to the mafia and sex scandals with teenagers have yet to dislodge him. So how can Italy get rid of him?” (Guardian)
Our Berlin bureau loves this men’s collection of neckwear from The Windmill Club. Some words from the Freeman folks on the neckwear brand. “Kevin Burrows is doing a fantastic job at elevating his brand in a way that’s approachable and easy to be inspired by plus his ties are made in NYC. The ties are 2.75″ at the widest point and are offered in some ideal patterns and colours, all made in extremely limited quantities from deadstock silk. Deadstock is essentially the very nature of the word, meaning once it’s gone it’s gone.” Much of it is gone but get in there for some final shots.
