Belstaff Dalesman Jacket
Never really been a fan of Belstaff…but browsing through this month’s Free & Easy and came across this picture of the Belstaff Dalesman. Quite like that it has the circular logo and extra two hip pockets.
Stone Island x Oki-ni
OKI-NI have long been playing Lennon to other designers’ McCartney, so it was with great anticipation I rushed to view OKI-NI’s website when I heard there was a Stone Island collaboration. Unfortunately this was more Candy Flip than Fab Four. Ok, so there’s a box with it, and it’s limited to 100 pieces, but that’s it. A wasted chance from two companies who we know can do much better..?

The Treetent
Would you pay 50,000.00 to live sleep in a tree? Saw this and immediately thought put the 000CP logo on it and might be something I’d buy. Sure it doubles as a tree house, but for 50,000.00! No thanks, would rather have the CP Tent any day. At least I could wear that one around.
12th Man T-shirt
Got my 12th Man t-shirt today and am quite pleased with the quality. The pieced came in a printed box, with a limited edition number at top. I’m usually very picky about the necks of the t-shirts I wear, but the 12th Man shirts have a nice collar material that seems like it will remain tight even after some washings. Material has an nice vintage dyed look that will go well with my new tinto.
The North Face 485 Collection
Everytime I look, seems another company is trying to compete with SPW as a high end sportswear brand. The new North Face 485 Collection is no exception.
Even with the high performance fabric tech like the Primaloft insulation and waterproof Gore-Tex, the line still falls short cause in end an ugly jacket is still an ugly jacket. And for 700-1200 usd a jacket, gets a big thumbs down.
