Cool Hunting
Portland, Oregon-basedHecklewood is a streetwear label born from an obsession with fringe subcultures. Raised on a steady diet of art, pop culture, and punk, their collection draws inspiration from their youth in the '80s and '90s and the cultural happenings of today.
Hecklewood and its two sister brands, Tanner and Off-set will be making their debut at the Pool Tradeshow 27-29 August in Las Vegas. They will be showing new cut-and-sew goods, new Hecklewood tees and hoodies as well as the new line of Tanner leather goods including messenger bags, laser-etched wallets, and other goodies.
My favorite is their “Miami Vice”-inspired “My Only Vice" tee (pictured below right). Like most good things, these are produced in limited quantities so don't miss out.

A deceivingly funny t-shirt from Kaws using his trademark Mickey Mouse-esque cartoon hands, it just about sums up the complicated set of feelings I have about New York City (and everything else) these days. (Also see Public School's similar expression of dueling emotions.) Available in black and white from We Sold Out for €65. via Highsnobiety...
It's hard for a t-shirt operation to define itself when it seems like everyone and their friend-who-dropped-out-of- art-school is printing their own line. That hasn't been a problem for Brooklyn's Death/Traitors, who recently added to their inimitable collection of loosely cult-themed streetwear. The spring line offers a healthy dose of satanic messages and roman numerals, with enough pyramids and all-seeing eyes to fill an...
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...
After noticing a killer one-piece jumpsuit called the "Conchord" online we asked ourselves, “Who would make such a great piece?” Below are the answers we got back after exchanging a few emails full of intrigue and wit with one of the founders (Todd) of the clothing line Toddland. It's the story of a little company that started with a bunch of friends wanting to make...
Absolutely the softest tees we've found outside of the aged threads at Salvation Army are coming from Ohio. The appropriately named outfit, Homage, pays tribute to sports teams and so much more with their clever graphics and nostalgic sentiment printed onto brand new, worn-out cotton tees. Homage began with a license to distribute Ohio State University gear, but with big aspirations and the desire to...
