Cool Hunting
Already well-known for their rare selvage denim, Kicking Mule Workshop's selvage chino pant is new this Spring. We appreciate the usage of selvage material in something other than denim, because the reality is all fabric suffers from the alternative (hanging on spools) at one point in its lifetime.
A fairly heavy pant with a straight leg fit, we found the chino to run a little roomy in the rear while overall our size seemed to run a tad small. Selvage with white trim is used throughout including the coin pocket, reinforced fly and back belt loop. It's due to hit stores relatively soon, check for a retail location near you at KMW. Be sure to check out their heavy knit sweatshirts and duffle bags too.

Two years ago Klaus Industries proclaimed that 2006 was the new 1984. While the fledgling experiment of democracy is still fledgling, the Portland, Oregon-based company has expanded their line of irreverent and humorous wears. Aside from an update on that particularly ominous theme, these hand-dyed printed shirts extol the tough-guy Abe Lincoln and the need for some domestic humanitarian intervention. “Our shirts are intended...
Western Massachussetts-basedTurn Nocturnal design studio is the brainchild of designer Matt McInerney and his good friend Jack Strong. Busting onto the scene a few months ago with their best selling font driven "Huge Type Looks Sweet" t-shirt ( still a favorite of mine) they've since followed up with a few others, their latest is "Turn The City and is available, along with Huge Type...
by Valery JosephThe designers behind Los Angeles-based Solid Gold Rags are sparing us the search for the perfectly worn-in t-shirt with a new line of beautifully tattered tees. Screen-prints of pop-culture icons—French singers and muses Françoise Hardy and Serge Gainsbourg front two of the collection's pieces—the almost criminally soft shirts. Co-founders Perry Shimon, and Oliver Kupperhe seek to create quietly personal, everyday pieces that...
Australia-based and South Africa-born, Michelle Legge is the brains behind the brand new cutting-edge casual label Toddy. Taking a unique approach to the vanilla offerings of sleepwear and casual fashion, this debut designer is set for cult status with a line of innovative, stylish and above all else, comfortable clothing. CH caught up with Legge to discuss leggings, design and imaginary sausage dogs. What's...
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...
