Summer Shirting from 3Sixteen

11 July 2011, 12.00 | Posted in Fashion | No comments »

3sixteen Summer2011 1 540x420 Summer Shirting from 3Sixteen

3Sixteen’s Summer shirting takes Japanese fabrics – sunwashed chambrays and lightweight madras fabrics – and applies some good old fashioned made in the USA craftsmanship. Unique pocket details, like bar tacked stress points for added strength, give each shirt individual appeal. For example, the short sleeve USN Shirt, balances a traditional button pocket with a right side pocket featuring vertical stitches to accommodate pens and other small accessories. It’s the little things, like pocket thought, that keeps us interested in 3Sixteen season to season.

View all the Summer shirts from 3Sixteen after the jump.

Selectism - crockett-jones-woven-chukka-boots-01

Sometimes we just feel like this whole shoe imbroglio is ephiphenomenal. Will Self knows what we’re talking about. If you can draw your eyes from reblogged pictures of the new shoe du jour, we’d like to point you to a pair of chukka boots that should pique your interest. If you know about shoes you know about Crockett & Jones and if you know about Crockett & Jones you’ll know these are a special pair of shoes. They’re only available in a size 7 & 7.5 but it’s your lucky day if you have Arshavin sized feet. (A fine pair of shoes)

“The Elements of F*cking Style” Book

elements of fcking style book The Elements of F*cking Style Book

Cool Hunting points us at a new book that looks to refresh your knowledge on grammar and the proper use of the English langues. The Elements of F*cking Style out now, looks to make the lessons and reminder a fun affair. “The truth about English is that it can get pretty boring. Dangling modifiers, gerunds, punctuation marks–it’s enough to make you want to drop out of high school. Swearing and sex on the other hand, well, these time-honored pastimes warm the cockles of our hearts. Now, The Elements of F*cking Style drags English grammar out of the ivory tower and into the gutter, injecting a dull subject with a much-needed dose of color.”

Available from Amazon The Elements of F*cking Style Book.

Juventus 2011/2012 Away by Nike

JUVENTUS AWAY 5 LO 540x405 Juventus 2011/2012 Away by Nike

Pink, Juventus’ original home color before the switch to black and white stripe, returns for the Turin club’s away matches in 2011/2012. Juventus has hit or miss success with their pink strips – the BBC calling a mid-90s version one of “the worst football kits of all time.” The contemporary style features a bold black star, and is delightfully aggressive in overall aesthetic. Made, like all new Nike football shirts, of 100% recycled polyester.

Maharishi Apocalypse Desert T-shirt

Selectism - maharishi-apocalypse-t-shirt-01

It’s a rare occasion we get to use the word apocalypse when talking about a tee. In fact, we get to use the word apocalypse so rarely that we’re tempted to start saying apocalypse too much in this post. This apocalypse desert tee is probably a play on apocalypse now, which was a great film that used the word apocalypse. On a sidenote, it’s on sale and it’s organic cotton. And it’s apocalyptic*.

01. The mysterious protractors of Pittsburgh
“One of the oddest things I’ve seen since coming to Pittsburgh was a protractor superglued to the stone in my neighborhood. It turns out that there are hundreds of them cropping up, sealed to surfaces so securely that authorities intend to charge whoever is doing it with a felony. Each is penned with a unique number, and tracking them down is becoming a local mystery. One blogger created a map of them, but took the post down after it hit the news” (boingboing)

02. Dubble Bubble: The American Folk Tale Collection (above)
“The American Folk Tale Collection for Dubble Bubble is a unique line of bubblegum carrying cases that is sure to pop into the hearts of youngsters and grown-ups alike. The packaging itself is a reusable storage container with a unique Folk Tale character that is tied to the flavor of the each box. The challenge for this project was to create the packaging out of a single piece of cardboard for easy assembly and minimal waste.” (dieline)

03. iPhone SLR Mount
huh? (coolhunting)

04. Mark Nixon’s “Chimecco”: A Bigger, Better Windchime at Sculpture by the Sea
“The gold-anodized aluminum pipes—600 in all—which are attached to the underside of the bridge, can be “played” by manipulating spring-loaded nodes on the surface. While their diameter is fixed at 50mm each, the pipes vary in length—and pitch—from 120mm to 3750mm (over 10 feet), as in a traditional windchime.” (core77)
