Selectism - CDG Forver Shirts

As though we needed another Comme des Garcons filing for the day, Nomad of Toronto has received stock of CDG’s Forever Shirt line. The name "Fovever" looks to signify the look of the button downs that are sublte and traditional. Nothing over ornate on these. In fact, they’re looks that will last (and have) for some time.

Selectism - GQ | Use Your Head

Senor Williams over at ACL directs us to a very well written article in the latest issue of GQ entitled, "Use Your Head : The GQ Guide to Buying a Hat." "The handy guide from GQ basically breaks down everything you need to know to wear a hat without looking like you just got off a flight from LAX. Much respect to GQ for making the guide without including pictures of Justin Timberlake or Brad Pitt."

Look for it now in the latest issue of GQ to be found at any reputable newsstand.

Selectsim - United Arrows Fall/Winter 2008-2009

Japan’s United Arrows is a uniform in class. Their Fall/Winter 2008 offering for men takes notation from the Mad Men styling of the late Fifties and Sixties. Unlike other brand who reference the classic fittings of the Brooks Brothers Ivy League look, the United Arrows collection represents the Japanese education of the look. An education in details and refinement to give their suits, knits, and wear an awareness to the classic. Add in the Japanese tailoring you expect from United Arrows and your search for the Fall is over.

Selectism - Thom Browne Spring/Summer 2009 Collection

Thom Browne’s Spring/Summer 2009 runway shows was clearly more subdued than past shows. The tennis themed show presented the news looks in a manner that adhered to the strict guidelines of the gentleman’s racquet sport. No over the top stage show this time around. They play was on vest suits and mens shorts with a dash of mini-dresses tossed in. Our favorite look included a below the crotch waist short trouser. You have to see it. Many thanks to men.style for the great runway shots.

After the jump, we present you some of the more wearable looks from Thom Browne’s Spring/Summer 2009 Collection.

Under Summit Wear by N. Hoolywood

Selectism - Under Summit Wear by N. Hoolywood

Quality lies not only in the visible details but in the touch and feel of a piece of clothing. We’re assuming that Blackbird is not letting us down when they describe Japan’s N. Hoolywood collection of under garments, "Under Summit Wear" as being the best of the best. These are under garments. Not basics, so the idea of spending upwards of $155 for a t-shirt may stop many dead in the tracks but take into consideration that someone clearly believes this is worth every last dollar. Or assume that the gorgeous presentation in stackable boxes may be part of your purchase. Either way, we’re fascinated with N. Hoolywood garments and hope you are as well.
