—01. Polkadots and stripes.

Words

Combining a variety of stripes and polkadots, these Rough & Tumble button-downs are produced in the US by Nepenthes. While the mix of different patterns is quite adventurous, the use of blue and white helps to keep things as classic as possible, and the outcome is a great short-sleeved summer shirt.

—01. 100% nylon.
—02. Asymmetrical zipper.

Words

I've really started to appreciate the usability of technically inclined outdoor gear for those instances when you are caught in the elements and need to rely on the details inherent in forward-thinking design to keep your haul dry. The resin coated water-repellent fabric and waterproof zipper used on this daypack will certainly make sure of that, while a very practical asymmetrical opening on the front makes getting into your pack a whole lot easier too.

—01. 100% cotton.
—02. Shaker rib knit.

Words

This cotton knit is an especially unique alternative to a T-shirt when you consider other options out there. I've never really seen such prominent ribbing on a short-sleeved top before, and the chunky fit and made in the USA construction make this shirt very appealing.

—01. Made in Japan.
—02. Stay hungry. Stay foolish.

Words

Certain homeware items do a great job of speaking to the interests of their owner, and are not just bland, unnoticeable objects. This example pays homage to the Whole Earth Epilog – a later edition in Stuart Brand's revered series, published in 1974 – and moreover serves as an attractive and useful couch cushion.

—01. 100% cotton.

Words

The pocket tee will never go out of style and this one makes an extra statement, in the form of a badge-like 'New Wave' print on the chest – an especially apt reference if you happen to be a fan of bands like Talking Heads and Television.

—01-04. Navy and Heather Grey.

Words

Pretty much the most appealing thing I've seen online for a minute. It could be because it's cold now, or perhaps it's the iconic C badge on the sleeve, or even that the waffle pattern reminds me of two of America's greatest inventions: Vans footwear and brunch. Whatever the reason, both colourways would make for an easy and regular addition to anyone's winter wardrobe.

—01 & 02. Brown Leather Oil Tan.

Words

Another fine make-up from the fine folk at Silver & Gold. The contrast of the sole, welt and upper make this Russell Moccasin particularly appealing for those months to come – when summer finally gives way to the early autumn.

Words

Why haven't I seen these before? Made in a cotton linen mix, in a classic fatigue style, these String Shorts from Needles look to be an ideal summer pick-up. The frayed hem is a nice detail, that's neither expected, nor unwelcome.
