SQUEEZE ME, PLEASE!

Wow can somebody squeeze me, please!

Filson teams up with Harris Tweed for a couple of stylish (and by the looks of it, tough as nails) new briefcases. Featuring the classic Filson finishings — bridle leather, brass hardware — that the all-American company is known for, but with a bit of Scottish charm thrown into the mix. Call it a geo-sartorial meeting of the minds (that you can carry to work with you).

MY FAVORITE TWEEDS

I'm not talking about the social media tweets, but about pics where people wear tweed. When I see those pics I get that warm cozy feeling and it reminds me of the English country site. It keeps you warm and stylish, whether your in the city or in the country.

STYLE POR FAVOR

NEED FOR TWEED

Above the sales guys from the Rugby Store, New York pictured at The Tweed Run. They show us the "need for tweed", this how we should dress ours self this Fall. I met Alexander (the guy in the middle) during my last trip to NY in the Bleecker store and he is a hell of a sales guy with a lot of knowledge of the preppy style.
