Christophe Lemaire left his post at Hermès earlier this summer, with plans to focus all of his attention on his own collection. It will be interesting to see how the label evolves, as it's already in a good place. The first fall delivery from the brand has now arrived at Neighbour, including shirting, trousers and some outerwear.

Charles Curtis & Tashi Wada at Issue Project Room

Info

September 12, 2014 at 8:00pm
Issue Project Room
22 Boerum Place
Brooklyn, NY 11201

Words

Issue Project Room has been at the vanguard of experimental music for the better part of a decade, not only in New York City but all of North America. They consistently host a staggering array of performances from legendary and up-and-coming artists alike. A current highlight in their programming schedule sees cellist and UCSD professor, Charles Curtis, reunited with the work of noted experimentalist and composer, Tashi Wada. The pair's previous collaboration at the venue came as part of Issue's anniversary celebrations in 2013, Ten Years Alive on the Infinite Plain. This time around Curtis will be performing Wada's soon-to-be-released record, Duets, with Judith Hamann, as well as solo cello works by Alvin Lucier, JS Bach, and Luigi Dallapiccola. This performance is a must-see for fans of experimental minimalism who may or may not already be familiar with this unparalleled art music venue.

—01. 50% Wool, 40% Cotton, 10% Nylon.

Words

Wool blends are an attractive idea as a material for sweatshirts and other long-sleeved sportswear. This variation from the Japanese brand Maillot has a wider boat neck and boxy, loose fit, which affords the pullover a slightly different but still simple, casual fit.

—01. White.

Words

It seems like everyone I know is always on the lookout for the perfect T-shirt. I'm not saying that Our Legacy's Classic T-Shirt is that, but it's a pretty good option. I think there are too many varying factors to appease everyone with a single short-sleeved cotton garment, but you can certainly get close.

Nicola Tassie’s thrown stoneware bowls and ash glazed jugs are available at Margaret Howell, which is where her work first caught my eye. A quick search then turned up a large selection of her pottery available online from The New Craftsmen, amongst which are these incredible textured porcelain mugs.

Last weekend I heard about Reverberation Radio from a couple of friends, and immediately became a fan. Having only gone through a handful of mixes, which are created by Los Angeles quartet Allah-Las, I've already discovered a number of songs and artists that I'm pretty excited about. The idea was to expose their fan base to a mix of tracks that inspire the band and their friends. Whether you are looking for an easy listening playlist or a jumping-off point for some deep musical delving, it's a great resource worth checking out.

Words

Paraboot’s excellent Norwegian welted shoes have had a definite resurgence in recent years and become an intelligent and unique option for discerning customers. Their boot designs haven't had as much recognition but this leather-lined hiking style is just as well made, featuring D-ring eyelets and the same waterproof welting.
