Cool Hunting
For me, basic tees all come down to comfort and cut. Made of super-soft pima cotton, 429 Life's t-shirts, polos, and henleys are hard to beat for their simplicity and attention to detail. Light and breathable, they're great for those really hot summer days and small side slits add an athletic appeal.
Recently presented at the Pitti Uomo tradeshow to great fanfare, Cool Hunting got a sneak peek of 429's Fall/Winter line which includes v-neck cashmere sweaters, v-neck hoodies and round-neck cashmere vests (pictured after the jump). We also heard that bathing suits, shorts, pants and jackets are in the works, so keep a look out for an expanded line in the near future.
Cool Hunting readers get an additional 40% off of 429's already moderately priced clothing. Just enter the promotional code "CH07" when shopping online here. The offer lasts until 15 August 2007.

The Momimomi t-shirts we've come to adore and covet are coming out with a new series, Tar and Feathers. Hitting their website tomorrow, the tees are super soft and cut to fit perfectly as always, but we get a new round of great graphics. Fragmented and blotchy graphics create abstract everyday objects like a bird (above center), lightning (above left), and a leaf (above...
Blake Hamster's first release of shirts combine fresh graphic design with an innovative blend of organic cotton and Seacell, a new yarn with seaweed elements that impart anti-inflammatory and moisturizing agents to the wearer. The fabric feels like any other tee and produced in very limited quantities (50 per style) with limited circulation, you can be assured that you will be the only one...
by Kelsey Keith Summer pop-up T.B.D. opened last week on the main drag of Southampton, showcasing items for the young and casually hip. Not your mother's Montauk needlepoint shop or East Hampton high-end mall, instead owners Peter Hananel and Jesse Warren carefully curated a collection of modish men's clothing and lifestyle must-haves. Creative director Gregory Buntain built out the interior of the one-story storefront with...
By Julie Wolfson An alternative way to show local pride, MikeJames Clothing Company's tees give a shout out to home towns with graphic images of states and area codes. Mark Wahlberg, pictured at right, is even a fan. The area code shirts are the brainchild of long time friends Mike Kirschenbaum and James Starr. Printed in the U.S. on 100% free trade, 100% cotton American...
Spring has sprung and summer is hot on its heels, and when I think summer I think t-shirts and when I think t-shirts nothing comes to mind quicker than those that are buttery soft and vintage-inspired, like those from our good buddies at Vintage Vantage. Choosing to do things right and develop their own t-shirt fabric from scratch, combining clever slogans and quirky graphics has...
Although it's snowing today, the first day of Spring, in NYC, while looking for a versatile pair of shorts I found these Swiss-made Acronym Etaproof Tec Sys Shorts which might be all I need for the coming summer months. Acronym's consistent high attention to detail (technical and otherwise) is what made us fans in the first place and this short is no different. Although...
