Words

It seems that whenever a new Ten C coat or jacket is released it climbs to the top of my favourite outerwear list almost immediately. That’s basically how I feel having seen this down jacket. The brand’s designs are always exceptional, anchored in understated styling and first-rate construction. Plus, the triangular stitching on the neck flap in this instance is incredible. They’ve made a few brighter colours in this style, but when it comes to wearability, you can’t go wrong with navy.

Words

Navy suede shoes will always have a certain appeal, especially as our first Inventory shoe came in the colour. In fact these Alden's bare quite a resemblance to those shoes overall. However, Frans Boone's use of Alden's long wing pattern looks very nice, and unique. The red sole might be in the spotlight, however it feels more subtle on these shoes, and I think they'd make a nice spring, summer, fall or winter shoe.
