I’m a big fan of both hickory stripe fabric and bucket hats, so this headwear option was ostensibly made for me. The shape and size look perfect, but the most unique detail is the reinforced, bias cut brim. It creates a striking visual alongside the subtle screen-printed branding, reminiscent of the stamps seen on vintage military items.

Human Made Hawaiian Lady Shirt

—01. 100% cotton.

Words

Nigo’s Human Made line has released one of the oddest aloha shirts I have ever seen. Which is perhaps the reason I find it so appealing in the first place. The graphic features a large-scale topless Hawaiian beauty, oddly placed on the back of the garment and primitively rendered in a flourish of muted watercolours. With many of us lamenting the loss of summer, the restrained colour palette and 100% cotton fabric make this a smart choice for transitioning into the season ahead.

Nigo's tiger camo offerings this season, through his Human Made line, are terrific. This jacket features a dizzying array of pockets, which clearly explain the name, but also create an interesting puzzle as you try to figure out what you might use half of them for.

Plain is best, but every once in a while a sweatshirt like this catches my eye. It will usually feature a collegiate print and a small C above the cuff, but this is something a bit more special. The large applique letters - front and back - won't be to everyone's liking, nor is the price particularly realistic for the vast majority of us. That doesn't stop it from being a great sweatshirt though, and one I'd happily add to the stack of more subdued options in my wardrobe.

Words

The Human Made collection is now available online via the Cold Coffee online shop. Among the current items, the corduroy hunting vest is one of my favorites. The brown and tans work nicely with the green duck characters.
