WESC 686 Jean by Josh Rubin

If you're over tight jeans these days, then WESC's new 686 Raw Selvage Jeans are the way to go. Baggy, but not early '90s baggy, they're a medium-rise, straight leg pant with a more generous cut than super skinnies. Part of their premium denim line, the Japanese fabric (it's ring spun denim, produced on vintage shuttle looms with a handmade finishing process) features a mix of yellow and gold seams. Asymmetrical stitch patterns adorn the two rear pockets, while the front pocket linings are stamped with the WESC print. Other nice details include back and coin pockets cut with the yellow and white selvage lines intact while buttons and rivets read "Superlative Conspiracy Yeah!"

Visit WESC to find stores and contact information. Also be sure to check out their jackets, sweats and knitwear, which are often good picks and top of the line.

Welcome to Toddland
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...
Limited-Edition Graphic Levi's 501 Jeans
Levi's recently released a limited-edition series of four pairs of jeans featuring vibrantly colored graphics. Geometric prints in red, blue, orange and yellow line the inside of each of the four jeans included in the collectible series. Inspired by 1980s video game graphics, the arcuate thread stitching on rear pockets and a button on the fly both smartly coordinate with the respective colorway. The...
Raeburn Design
Christopher Raeburn cleverly constructs high-end street wear from re-deployed parachutes and military fabrics. Sourced from uniforms of specific countries and vintages, Raeburn creates elegant pieces of clothing in stark contrast to the combat-ready materials from which they were made. We especially like the Parachute Jacket (pictured) for its breezy look. Using mainly recycled materials, these ethically-correct garments are produced in England. The outerwear features...
