Words

If you recently got your tax refund back and don't know where to spend it all at once, I might have found the thing for you. These summer beach shorts from Junya Watanabe look great. Both blues are very nice, the details are great and there doesn't seem to be anything too wild about the design, just the price. If you have a couple spare shillings to spend, they might just be the perfect pair of shorts this season.

Arrow Moccasin for Nepenthes

—01. Special pattern for Nepenthes.

Words

Nepenthes are one of the masters of collaboration, and this spring they made up a new ring shoe with Arrow Moccasin. The thick, oiled leather is low to the ground, allowing for nice feel, although maybe not recommended for those with sensitive feet. The ring closure provides a nice design twist, but the mocs remain quite simple and more wearable than some of Nepenthes past projects.
