For the next three days all of our footwear is on sale. We've never actually put our shoes or boots on sale before, so this is a rarity. For three days only, you can snag some great shoes from Red Wing, Yuketen, Viberg or Mark McNairy for 20-25% off. The sale will end on Sunday night, and all footwear go back to regular price.

We just had our one-year anniversary of the Inventory Stockroom this past weekend. We decided not to make a fuss about it, but we're still happy to have had a fairly successful first year of brick and mortar retail. We appreciate the support from everybody online, overseas and in Vancouver and look forward to a few more years in Vancouver, and hopefully even somewhere new within the next year or two.

Yuketen Johnson Oxford

—01. Made in Canada.

Words

The soon-to-be classic Yuketen Johnson boot comes back in its spring form. The low cut shoe retains its rugged look and feel, beautiful lined leather and nice silhouette. The touch of formality on the toe is perhaps more suited to a low cut shoe. It continues to have a nice balance of rough and dress, while being one of the most comfortable shoes with a Goodyear welt.

Yuketen Spring Collection

—01. Yuketen Spring stockists.

Words

A couple times during the year we get a delivery of some of the best shoes in the world. These three styles are just tough to top and I think it's safe to say we're fans of the crepe sole and the beautiful hand-sewn moccasin construction. Each shoe offers a little something different, but all four are best in class. I am personally having a very difficult debate between the Country Loafer and the Sport Chukka.

New Mexico, Part Two

—01. Yuki getting ready to hit the road.

Words

As promised, here is the second batch of images from my recent trip to New Mexico. These ones have a bit more of a look at some of the weaving shops we went to, as well as one of the most amazing general stores in all of New Mexico. Although some of these shots aren't too bad, I just saw some of the film shot by Nicholas Haggard and really can't wait to see it printed in the upcoming issue of Inventory - due out in April.

New Mexico, Part One

—01. Yuki and Nick in the desert.

Words

Last month I spent a few days traveling the dusty roads of New Mexico with Yuki and Ryan from Yuketen. We had spoken about the region early last year and about how Yuki used to go there searching for Native American jewlery and for the specialty woven goods. It had been a while since Yuki had gone, so we thought it would be fun to tag along on the trip. We also had Nicholas Haggard come along to take some photos and document the trip for our upcoming issue of Inventory. I had never been to New Mexico, and with some great luck and an experienced tour guide, we had an amazing trip. I'll put up another batch of images shortly, but the real goodies will be coming later in the spring.

—01. Army green Ventile and leather.

Words

Two of our good friends have linked up again for a special product. The Army Gym is one of the best shops in Tokyo, and its not surprising to see that Yuki and Nigel have teamed up on another pair of Hunt boots, this time using a military Ventile fabric to accent the brown leather and crepe soles.
