Mike Dacey of Repeat Press gives his roundup.

01. Preserve

New Zealand based website dedicated to the preservation of hand painted signage from around the world. Of course, the above image is a favorite.

02. A Curious Catalogue – Michael Leon

Nieves latest publication A Curious Catalogue is a “skateboard product catalogue of pencil drawn anti-graphics, spin-art wheels, and slalom gemstones. It was designed to take a romantic and fantastic vision of a skateboard company and make it ‘real’.” Super rad, love the spin-art wheels painted by holding a pen against a rolling skateboard wheel.

03. Tom Sachs’ 10 Bullets

“This amazing video from artist Tom Sachs is worth the twenty minutes it takes to watch. It’s not about print but it is about a tight-running studio operation- something we can all aspire to. It’s inspirational. Imagine the Ryan McGinness Studio Manual interpreted by filmmaker Wes Anderson and you might get something like this…” (via printeresting)

04. Crazy Russian kids DIY bungee jumping

“Crazy Russian Parkour” videos just got one-upped. This girl is going to have falling nightmares for years. What is the rope even attached to? Are they holding it? (via The Wizard Gang)

Alexander McQueen will be missed for his avant-gaurde styling and timeless design. His  legacy still continues in the company and is seen in each collection. The “Asymmetric” cardigan is currently offered in “100% New Zealand merino wool” in dark blue. Today, the same cardigan was made for the Autumn/Winter collection in a silk blend in grey. The slim silhouette and modern S-styling button closure makes a great design. The shawl/turtleneck collar sets the tone for the season. A modern cardigan that would compliment the “turn-of-the-century” styling of “yesteryear.” It’s available at AlexanderMcQueen.

A nice pair of boots with just a touch of U.S.A. made denim. “HELM has partnered with North Carolina based Raleigh Denim to insert their US-loomed denim (by Cone Mills) into the Ray Ray style – an existing boot style that comes in brown leather and black leather as well… The Ray Ray boots are handmade in Istanbul by traditional artisans employed by Helm. Bolts of Raleigh Denim were sent there to be incorporated as a component along with the handmade soles from Italy, the calfskin from Holland, etc. The white layer exposed and embedded in the sole is rubber that has been melted and fused to the sole for both a bit of bounce in the sole, and the striped aesthetic.”

Back once again for the season, the Belvedere vodka silver vodka and bottle in a limited edition run. “Silver is Belvedere’s super premium vodka, only this time in a supremely sleek and festive limited edition bottle. Reflecting the spirit of the season, Belvedere Silver is great for host/hostess gifts, stocking stuffers, and especially holiday parties and New Year’s celebrations. Available through December only, the unique packaging is both chic and daring; cleverly incorporating the signature Belvedere branding set against a mirrored background for a modern look.” Look around for it.

SwedishGuyDesign in Berkeley, CA re-purposes old wooden wine barrels into stands for cheese and stands for iPhone. This simple and beautiful wood structure probably has the scent of old wine which may be a flavor you’ll love. It is a charging stand to showcase your phone. It will also probably keep you form misplacing it as well. Etsy has them.

A.P.C. drops looks from their forthcoming Spring 2011 “Resort” collection. This sailor sweatshirt with its wide collar and fit is a strong pick. ”Soft, rather heavyweight material. Straight cut. Sailor collar with white piping. Ribbed hem and cuffs.” Wear it casually, of course.

There have been times where we’ve harped on about the “perfect” gray sweatshirt. It’s an almost mythical garment sending us into frenzies about Japanese license Champion, loopwheeled this and that, and even the prep school favorite, Cotton Exchange.

All that often has us forgetting the glory of the simple merino sweater. Outlier drops their version into the fold this week. It’s simple, but like all Outlier product there is attention given to function and movement.

Made of super fine New Zealand merino wool in all the colors you might want for sweatshirt – grey, black, navy.

Producing quality jeans and associated garments isn’t enough for the guys at Denim Demon. They had to have their own drink too. Denim Demon Aquavit, their own Schnapps, is crafted in collaboration with Buustamon – which is not only Sweden’s smallest, legal mountain distillery, but also a charming 26-bed hotel.

72 Bottles of both large and small sizes are available.
