The artistry of Alexander Julian

By

We’re thrilled to have this sports coat this spring. It’s all rooted in the legacy of innovation that is Alexander Julian’s master class in timeless style, where bold color, refined texture, and impeccable tailoring meet. From his groundbreaking Colours collection to designing clothes for the most distinguished dressers and even creating the uniforms for the University of North Carolina athletic teams, Julian has spent decades redefining menswear with artistry and sophistication. And now, a piece of that story can be yours.

This sports coat embodies Alex’s signature blend of classic and modern, and we encourage you to see it for yourself.  

Don’t forget, the Kentucky Derby is right around the corner!!!

One Jacket – Three Days

By

When we saw this jacket from Private White in New York at the MRkt Show we instantly knew that we had to bring this to our customers.

Private White is an English concern that pays homage to WW I hero, Private Jack White.  This collection has subtle nods to its military legacy, and it represents the highest standards in British manufacturing.  If you want, read about Jack White HERE.  One lasting legacy of WWII British manufacturing is the fabric called Ventile.  It was a fabric developed for the British RAF pilots that would increase their chance of survival should they have to ditch out over the cold ocean waters. While wearing Ventile, the pilots could maintain warmth and stay dry for periods of time until they could be rescued. It’s a fabric that is 100% cotton and it features an extremely tight weave to maintain waterproofing.
The coat we’re featuring here is part outerwear and part sport coat.  Both windproof and waterproof, it is the ideal travel companion. And in a day where carry on’s and versatility are the name of the game, this coat is nothing short of perfect.  It’s rugged enough for daily wear, but sophisticated enough to gain you entrance in a decent restaurant.
