Close to a decade ago, Chrome set the bar when it came to making durable, bike-friendly messenger bags. Even the most Premium Rush downtown style beatdown wasn't enough to mess up their bags.

There are plenty of things that guys have been doing regularly for as long as we can remember that can still benefit from a procedural and material face lift every once in a while.

It's been a long time since we lusted after a pair of hi-tops that didn't bear the Converse star, but if anyone was going to steal that place in our hearts we're not surprised it was Vans.

The latest in their long line of offerings, the Drafting Collection, ... continue reading
David Bowie is, well, David fucking Bowie. The man has been a major figure for almost twice as long as most of us here have even been alive. And while we’re not going to get into the whole cycle of music influencing fashion influencing music thing, it’s definitely worth mentioning that Bowie is just as important to style as he is music. The Ziggy Stardust days are over, but there are plenty of other style cues you can take from ...... continue reading
Clothes fall apart; that's a fact. Flint and Tinder doesn't want it to be like that any more, and they're putting their money where their mouth is when it comes to the new 10 Year Hoodie. When they set out to make this hoodie F&T sourced 18oz 100% cotton with a tight enough weave to last a lifetime, but it's spun ... continue reading
