—01. Superior Labor for Inventory Items.

Words

We've got some great products coming out this year; some are the result of exciting new partnerships and others are courtesy of tried and trusted relationships. They'll be plenty more on this particular release in the next few days. For now I just wanted to let you know that we've made some socks with Superior Labor, they're on their way and we're honoured to be working with such an amazing company.

Inventory Item 013: Barbarian Rugby Shirts

—01. Made in Canada.

Words

It's not too often that we are able to make products in Canada, but working with Barbarian is something we've been planning for awhile. The 100% heavyweight cotton shirts feature a white collar, a slimmed down fit and come in two colour options. The grey/ivory combination and the heather/navy both look great and the natural colors are perfect compliments for blues, reds and chambrays. Rugby shirts are often overdone, but we feel our version offers the authenticity and toughness of the traditional shirt while using soft tones, great fabric and a much nicer fit.

In Stock: Inverallan for Inventory Items Knit Caps

—01. Pure wool, hand knitted in Scotland.

Words

Unfortunately this year saw Inverallan scale back their business to existing retailers, mainly in Japan. However, we are excited to continue our relationship with the experienced hand knitters. Currently in the depths of the Scottish winter, our cardigans are trapped by snow. Luckily this season's cable knit caps made it out before the change in weather. They're available in five colours - red, loden, oatmeal, grey and blue - and are a great way to keep warm, look sharp and add some nice colour and texture to an outfit.

—Available at the Inventory Stockroom and Dover Street Market

—01. Hand poured in Brooklyn, NY.

Words

After some anticipation, our candles are finally available online and also at Dover Street Market. Our first Inventory scent has been received very well. We couldn't be happier with the rich smell Inventory Item 012 has created in our shop, and we've already started working on a complimentary follow-up for next spring. Working with Joya has been very enjoyable so far, and hopefully you'll enjoy this product as much as we are.

—Now available at Inventory Stockroom and Dover Street Market

—01. Hats, $85; cardigans, $325.

Words

Our first collaboration with Inverallan last winter went really well, so it was an easy decision to keep things going again this season. The wait has been a long one, but the first shipment will be available by next weekend. The cable knit caps will be available first, with our new cardigan arriving shortly thereafter. The hats will be coming in five colours this fall - red, grey, oatmeal, olive and blue.

Restocked: Inventory Items Utility Packs

—01. Also available at Partners & Spade
and Dover Street Market.

Words

We finally have one of our favorite Inventory Items back in stock. The Duluth Utility Pack is one of the most simple, functional and useful items we've made in the last year. It's the perfect size, and the waterproof canvas and lifetime guarantee are tough to argue with. The folks at Duluth Pack are also very easy to work with and we've made small tweaks here and there with each run. The latest update is an Inventory Items Utility Pack stamp on the back - although it's tough to spot on the navy.

—01. Hand poured in Brooklyn, New York.

Words

We've been working on this collaboration for quite some time now and it's just about ready. It's a scented candle - our first non-wearable Inventory Item - and we're really pleased with the end product. We worked closely with Frederick Bouchardy at Joya in New York and thoroughly enjoyed the whole process. The scent, Fig, Sunwashed Oak & Amber, is quite intricate, but the smell is warm and subtle, filling the room nicely without being overpowering. The candles have been poured; we're just adding the finishing touches, but they'll be available in the next week or so, priced at $45.

Available soon at Inventory Stockroom, Partners & Spade and Dover Street Market
