Accessories: Idiom Gloves
No one really likes wearing gloves in the winter time unless your snowboarding or holding grocery bags, but these might make you change your mind. Idiom has to be in my opinion 1 of the most innovative and stylish outerwear companies, for those who don’t know Idiom is Burton’s small Japanese house label. These can be used as a snowboard gloves - or just for every-day use. Constructed using premium components from Gore-Tex to palm leather, with Thinsulate insulation for extra warmth. Featuring i-Dot design detailing and Velcro closure to stop snow and rain getting in.
Footwear: Original Fake Down House Slippers
Being in the house and walking around barefooted is kinda of a big deal, so having a pair of warm and comfortable and not to mention branded cool guy slippers is a must for all cool guys alike. These Original Fake down house slippers are really dope and sure beats wearing Crocs.
Cool guy points: Anti-slip soles, Fleece lining, Down feathered and Kaws embroidered cross eyes.
Clothing: Living Mutants Stealth Generation Down Jacket
I bring to you a very new brand from Berlin by the name of Living Mutants, I already got my winter jacket for this season already but after seeing this jacket I guess I could use another one. These jackets will be produced in limited amounts. What makes it unique are the invisible zippers, embedded goose down fill, removable fur collar and a couple other things you will have to figure out for yourself if you get your hands on it. Visit BGHD for more info.
Cool hunts: Rogan x Kershaw Knife
This knife collaboration between Rogan and Kershaw knives is definitely a cool hunt for me, no pun intended. This is a limited-edition collaboration comes in matte black finish and is engraved with different sayings from Rogan’s graphic archive.
Exclusively at Rogan, 91 Franklin Street, NYC $150
“Coolhunting is a term coined in the early 1990s referring to a new breed of marketing professionals, called coolhunters. It is their job to make observations and predictions in changes of new or existing cultural trends. The word derives from the aesthetic of “cool“.
