In the words of Mr Jose Hustle, Haversack been making denim work jackets. The granddad collar means it’ll look good with a roll neck and, although the price makes it a ‘I have to love this before I buy it’ purchase, it’s worth the money. The amount of buttons might be off putting to some folks, but trust us, it’ll look good on. And if you can’t trust someone on the internet you’ve never met, who can you trust? (Context)

Never let it be said that this site isn’t personal enough. One of our writers (the one writing this blog in third person for no apparent reason) has recently moved and is on the lookout for some home goods that, in the words of Luther Vandross, will make a house a home. These printers blocks are a great step towards that homely feel, even though deciding what you want to spell becomes a mission in itself. We don’t want to spell home because it’s a bit blah and spelling your own name is a step too far down narcissism lane. We’d ask suggestions but we’re not naive enough to give folks an open lane to make a Rondo-on-Bosh slam dunk of a joke. (Pedlars)

Here’s one for the high rollers. And when we say high rollers, we mean high rollers. We only kinda like this jacket – it’s hard to fully endorse a jacket that’s nearly 3 grand that has a slightly camden-esque skull pattern on the back. That said, if you like it and have the money – admittedly, two massive ifs – go for it. (Farfetch)

Soulland have just dropped this vest from their much hyped (mainly by us) AW10 collection and, as you’d expect us to say, we rather like it. There’s not much to rave about on this piece – and that’s no bad thing – apart from the placement of an elbow patch on the back. That aside, it’s pretty much an easy slot in the wardrobe – or a ‘must cop’ if you still haven’t given up the streetwear lingo yet. (C Store)

Beau Colburn will soon be in the city of the enemy (Yankees fans)..

01. How to Eat at Chipotle
“In terms of the black vs. pinto bean debate that’s been raging for centuries, pinto beans have always struck me as being too healthy. Also, black beans taste better. I’m too lazy to look up the actual science behind my intuition, but if anyone can prove that pinto beans are actually worse for you than black beans, I will gladly change my Chipotle ritual and you can even read the eulogy at my funeral for my heart failure at 50.” (theawl)

02. I Can’t Keep It In My Pants
“I  carry a similar set of opposing forces in my pocket every day. I couldn’t be more excited about the promise of these new technologies. I also couldn’t be more concerned about my inability to keep them from taking over events rather than enhancing them.” (tweetagewasteland)

03. What they’re saying about Jeter’s Gold Glove
“I haven’t seen an award decision that had such uniformity of negative opinion about it since Jethro Tull beat Metallica for Best Heavy Metal Performance Grammy in 1988. Or maybe it was Taste of Honey beating Elvis Costello for Best New Artist in 1978.  To be honest, we should probably rename the Gold Glove the Fielding Grammy Award.” (hardballtalk)

04. Destination Design: Treehotel (above)
“Remember when you were little and you wanted to live in your treehouse? Want that feeling of weightlessness and seclusion again, this time as an adult?”

“The video is trying to articulate a flexible and liquid concept of fashion. Flexible because contemporary is open to endless possible combinations possibilities for people who love fragmentation and infinite choices. Liquid because it dives into completely unexpected context. But only at first sight, because ‘mimetic’ and intentionally ‘cool’capacity of the senior population does exist and the video only revisits often neglected aspect of seniority.”

When we first took a look at this jacket from Final Home (backin 2008) we praised the ability of the piece to be the “ultimate shelter.” While first and foremost fashionable, this  FH09FA042 is a tear-away dream. Check the shoulders. The jacket is panel zipped and can be broken down as needed – say for setting up a lean to tarp. It is incredibly functional when the world is falling apart around you.
