// ALL BLUES // // Recent Acquisition- a long coveted collaboration finally turned up in my size. // This model the “Drifter” from the Nike ISPA collection, an experimental concept which originated in 2018 and stands for Improvise, Scavenge, Protect and Adapt. Similar to the Considered collection from 2005, the designs explore the concept of sustainability in construction methods, like using recycled materials and glueless construction. // This model is based on the traditional split toe jikatabi work shoe style, with hemp uppers and sakura embroideries. The original off white was then sent to a traditional indigo farm and dye collective known as BUAISOU located in Tokushima prefecture and dyed indigo in a nod perhaps to the traditional working class color roots (royalty wearing colors like purple and gold). I decided to pair them today with a vintage USN workwear set for a “denim tux” look! // FIT DETAILS: PANTS + JACKET- 1940s USN shawl deck jacket and utility pant (USA) VEST- Kapital reversible “sashiko” pattern pile fleece (Japan) WATCH- Vintage Caban De Zucca [Seiko] JDM GiuGiaro (Japan- with thanks again to Alex!!!) SWEATSHIRT- 1980s reverse weave MITSUI corporate sweatshirt (Japan) BELT- Vintage braided leather (USA) HAT- D Day Neon Beanie (Woodstock, NY) GLASSES- vintage American Optical safety goggles (USA) BANDANA- Kapital “Fast Color” selvedge discharge print (Japan) MUSIC- It’s a Blue World by CorYaYo (2014) *Sorry Insta cut cropped the video without shoes despite my best efforts and many revisions and edits…👴🏽*

// RING ME BACK // *** CLAIMED. THANK YOU! *** // The other one went fast but thankfully I was able to track down another vintage Kapital ring coat in a lovely washed 2x1 denim. Around 10oz.-11oz. weight (similar to vintage painters pants) this jacket is a nice example of Kapital’s iterative approach to design wherein a signature style is revisited season over season with modified details based on inspiration. Rather than the original bent wire ring buttons this one plays with the workwear inspiration of the denim fabric and uses beautiful cast aluminum open top (donut) tack buttons as one might find on a pair of vintage denim carpenter pants…made in Shikoku at a factory (Yamashiro) that uses vintage style machinery and construction methods. // No tag but fits like a size 2 which is a M/L in this style. Priced at $475 please DM with inquiries // FIT DETAILS: Pants- vintage 1940s P-41 HBT pant (USA) Vest- Kapital “Beach Vest” (Japan) Shirt- vintage 1950s rayon Aloha shirt (USA) Shoes- 2005 Adidas “Country 73” (Vietnam) Hat- Jackman heavy waffle beanie (Japan) Glasses- vintage American Optical Belt- vintage silk obijime (Japan) // MUSIC- “Ring Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey)” by De La Soul (1991)

// SQUARE APPARENT // // Now Available- vintage 1990s FLOAT brand side tables/ stools. Soft cast silicone rubber over a clear rigid frame sitting on four rounded silicone rubber feet. The semi-transparent nature of the material creates an interesting glow when exposed to more direct light sources. Unusual conversation pieces which are oddly satisfying to the touch. * Note for the perfectionists out there- the organic surface picks up impression marks fairly easily but in my opinion creates an interesting evolving patina through daily use. // priced at $325 each or the pair is yours for $600- please DM with questions or to claim // MUSIC- Square Biz by Teena Marie (1981)

// RING CYCLE // ***NOW SOLD- THANK YOU*** // Own a piece of iconic current (and future) design history // Now available- one of my favorite and most worn closet staples- The Kapital Ring Coat. This one was designed in the early days (2005-2010) when Kapital was still a small retail brand local to the Japanese market and unavailable outside of Japan through wholesale accounts. // The jacket takes its name from the beautiful bent wire change buttons on the front closure and pockets. Can be worn many ways as double breasted or with facings folded back for a more “wrap coat” style. These original buttons were replaced by standard corozo buttons once Kapital began wholesaling outside of Japan- I imagine due to cost or production limits or both. // This one I sourced is in a lightweight Japanese slubby 2x1 fine twill probably around 8oz…a little heavier than a shirt but lighter than a chino- makes an excellent transition layering piece as the days get warmer but are still unpredictable. // A unisex size 1 that fits from around XS-Medium for most folks with ample room and excellent drape // Priced at $475 (including shipping)- these are hard to find and will become increasingly so as the Kapital brand has now been gobbled up by LVMH and will likely get value engineered further in fabric and trim details from here on out. // Please DM with interest or questions // FIT DETAILS: Jacket- Vintage 1950s HBT customized souvenir jacket (USA) Sweatshirt- 90s Champion Reverse Seam (USA) Pants- Customized pin-tuck Canton Denim chino (Japan) Shoes- 2007 Nike Zoom LD-1000 Hat- Cal-O-Line pigment dye beanie (Japan) Glasses- Vintage American Optical (USA) // MUSIC- Ring the Alarm by Tenor Saw (1985)

// BEANS TALK 🌱 aka LL BEAMS // // Recent acquisition/ Appreciation post for this oddball design from the LL Bean archives- a hybrid hunting/work vest reminiscent of Browns Beach body with houndstooth sleeves. I’ve had the original Black Label LL Bean in a (too small) size for a few years which just frustrates me whenever I excitedly take it out of storage every year only to realize either it is getting smaller or I am getting larger… // So I was elated to finally track down the replica/tribute in my size designed for Fennica (Beams Japan) by the inimitable Terry Ellis in partnership with OrSlow. I thought some other design nerds like myself may enjoy a side by side comparison of some key construction details- enjoy! // OTHER FIT DETAILS: - Pants: B-Sides Vintage Lasso Jean (USA - Sweatshirt: Denim Dungaree (Japan) - Hat: Phigvel Seed Stitch Beanie (Japan) - Shoes: Vintage Birkenstock Boston Pony Hide (Germany) - Bandana: Kapital (Japan) - Watch: Vintage 1980s Casio Wristtalk (Japan) - Sunglasses: Vintage American Optical (USA) // MUSIC- Funkier Than a Mosquito’s Tweeter by Nina Simone (1974)

// BROTHERLY LOVE // // Weekend Road Trip // Spent a day in Philadelphia for a change of winter scenery and was duly inspired by the energy and activities of the design and larger community going on there…!

// CONTINUUM // aka Jaco of All Trades // Here available a little tribute project I put together for other fans of one of my favorite musicians- the inimitable Jaco Pastorius. Footage of his 1976 Portrait of Tracy solo inspired me to track down some era-appropriate vintage Phillies hats and then have his name lovingly and impeccably chainstitched by our friend @alyxjacobsrepair for a very IYKYK totem and tribute to one of the greats. // Three sizes available @$165 each- see slides for details. Please DM with interest. Thanks for your support of our shop and of great music. // MUSIC- Continuum by Jaco Pastorius (1982)
