I think most of my friends know of my love for camouflage pieces and sometimes they enable my addiction by giving me pieces. Yesterday my homies at Penfield gave me the new Rockford Waxed Down filled Penfield Jacket. I put a few iphone pictures up last night and most of you went crazy as I did when I first saw it. The jacket is simply #dope. There is not much more I can say about it. I started wearing the jacket yesterday and I still have it on as I write this. You can’t go wrong with a down feather waxed camo jacket, can you?

Thanks Penfield!

I was fortunate enough to get my hands on this Barbour International Steve McQueen Rexton Jacket while I was out in Vegas a few weeks ago. The jacket is amazing and I can’t wait to break it in and commit the ultimate wear test. This is a real man’s jacket and I suggest you purchase a Barbour jacket if you want to step out in style. The classic piece is so iconic and I am looking forward to wearing it a lot.

A multi-pocketed distressed finish 8oz heavyweight wax jacket inspired from the A7 jacket. This motorcycling garment features the original International label and the I.D.S.T team badge in the left-hand side. “Racing is life,” declared Steve McQueen. “Anything before or after is just waiting.” McQueen raced motorbikes to pay his way through acting school. He raced Six Day Trials on the USA Team, wearing Barbour’s weatherproof and ergonomic International biker jacket. And he raced around the deserts of California – which provides the backdrop for this season’s Barbour Steve McQueen™ Collection. The iconic A7 Barbour INternational jacket was the uniform of choice for the British International Six Day Trials team from the 1950′s right through to the 70s. In 1964 the USA team including Steve McQueen, adopted the ‘International’ as the best proven defence against the European weather. The effortless way in which the jacket design coped with rain and mud made it the perfect choice, while the ergonomic design of the back cargo pockets were especially ideal for crucial storage.

This week I went to the 21 Mercer shop in New York and I got a chance to check out the new Nike Sportswear NSW collection known as Made in Italy. The collection is fantastic and the quality of the garments are pretty awesome. The styling draws inspiration from Tennis and the players who play the game. I could not get over how great the product felt to the touch and how it looked on the mannequins and displays . The product is a bit expensive but keep in mind that you are paying for quality.

The nylon peacoat is absolutely stunning and my favorite piece of the collection.

If you have a chance to check out the collection and pick up a couple of piece I strongly suggest that you do.

Enjoy!

I love when a product responds to my needs of style & function. While I was out in Vegas for the PROJECT show I was introduced to the New York based brand by the name of Outlier’s who make tailored performance products. These Slim dungarees are amazing! They are waterproof and perfect for that rain storm or wet bike ride. As you can see I poured water on the pants for your viewing pleasure.

Thanks Nick for the introduction!

The  COMUNE Olsen denim waxed jacket is pretty awesome. I’ve been wearing it at night when the weather cools down and it is perfect. These days waxed garments are my favorite, so a waxed denim coat is perfect.

I’m really feeling Comune’s newest collection!

If you don’t have a wool pea coat in your wardrobe this fall, you might be doing yourself a disservice. Saint James has this beautiful pea coat which just ended up on the must have list. The Galion is superb.

I can’t wait for fall to attack us in full force so I can pull out great pieces like this Norse Projects Agni Knit.

Everyone needs a yellow rain coat in their wardrobe. This is Norse Projects update on the classic Danish rain jacket from Elka. 90% PVC, 10% Polyester, 100% waterproof. Made in Europe.

As a kid I hated to wear my yellow rain coat now it is all that I want, how ironic?

Just came back from Paris to a lot of rain and colder weather but I love it, why? The fall is soon upon us and it is the perfect time to bring out the perfect gear. Here you have 1 of my favorite rain coats of the season.The 2 in one SWIMS camouflage rain coat. I spoke about this coat a few months ago but now I finally have it in my possession. Camouflage happens to be one of my favorite colours/patterns and the hint of red just makes this jacket pop. Up close this jacket looks almost tonal which I like, it’s not too overbearing.

You can also remove the liner and use it as a lightweight jacket if you need to.

It’s windproof, waterproof and breathable thanks to the Infinite fabric technology a 3 layer lamination.

What a great way to seduce the rain…

My friends over at KSWISS sent me over some of the new Running capsule collection designed by Brendon Babenzien. The product looks really good and I love the 70′s inspired colours and fits. The product is only available in three stores in the world and I think it is a perfect summer collection.
