Wasting no time, I snagged one of the cotton made-in-new-york polka dot scarves from the collection while I still had the chance—as it already seemed to have sold out most places I checked. There’s really not much I can say that the pictures below doesn’t already illustrate aside from how light weight and breathable it is. The timeless white on navy polka dot pattern is an obvious classic, making it a perfect spring or cool-summer-night addition to my otherwise pattern-lacking attire.

You’ll find the video lookbook that accompanies the new collection (see below) is quite remnant of Kanye’s digi-glitch video for Welcome To Heartbreak

The boot itself is surprisingly light — compared to my Red Wing 877 anyway — and features a smooth calf upper with a Vibram Morflex sole put together by a storm welt, oversized brogue detailing, waxed leather laces and canvas pull tabs. The weather isn’t quite right for these just yet but I look forward to giving them some solid wear come spring and fall.

I threw this video together last month for a class of mine. The concept was simple: examine and focus on the details of a select handful of friends, showcasing and highlighting the subtle nuances in the outfits they were wearing that day. With the help of Vincent, Samia, Taline, Ernest, Gabrielle and Charles, I was able to piece this together into somewhat of a cohesive video. Hopefully my lack of planning and poor direction doesn’t show too strongly in this.

Admittedly, this was quite fun for work on. Maybe I’ll do more in the future.

The boot is a 6″ (though the #9184 offers a slightly lower cut) and features leather tanned at their own S.B Foot Tanning Company in Minnesota, a Vibram mini-slug sole, olive-brown waxed canvas hugging each side, quality two-tone raw-hide laces and like all their boots, are triple hand-stitched in the US using waxed thread.
