Cool Hunting
Swedish workwear-inspired clothing label Dunderon last week relocated their one and only retail outlet in the U.S. to a more permanent home in New York City's Soho district. Conceptualized by menswear design director Carlos Salazar, the handpainted pine plank flooring and traditional wainscoting recreates a sundrenched Swedish cottage.
With a full range of men's and women's clothing, along with a few exclusives from their men's workwear collection, the store offers a lot while maintaining a spacious feel. Overcrowded or dishelved racks don't exist with everything, including cabinetry, shelves and table, strategically placed to offer a pleasant and calm shopping experience—a welcome change in the often hectic shopping district.

Founded in 1997 by a carpenter, Dunderdon's mission has always been to create clothing for modern crafts people who appreciate superior construction and intelligent design. With timeless cuts and some urban tailored tweaks, their Workwear and more street-friendly Sportswear line maintain such ideals. Men's blazers, vests, sweaters, scarves and ties blend function and minimalist style, while the women's dresses and blouses are dainty and cute. If you're in the area be sure to check out the whole Dunderon collection at their new U.S. base, or you can always check out and purchase items from their online store.

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.

Creative director Gregory Buntain built out the interior of the one-story storefront with...

by Jason Wilson This week, Greg Armas, former master of L.A.'s Scout, braves the NYC retail wilderness equipped with an aptly named bridle, Assembly. An avid vintage collector and former gallerist, Armas compiled an attractive collection of classic and contemporary men's clothing, antiques and vinyl in a bold attempt to disseminate a style rather than singular must-haves. Ksubi fishnet-knit sweatshirts blend perfectly next to...
If you didn't know that ACNE stands for "Ambition to Create Novel Expressions," than you also proabably weren't aware that the Swedish label is a multi-disciplinary company consisting of much more than impeccably cut jeans in amazing fabrics. With films, furniture design, architecture and their own world-class publication, it's lifestyle branding that we can actually get behind. Opened yesterday in New York City, their...
With the recent drop in temperature I've been looking for some Fall gear. We already told you about dREALM and 38 Regular, a small shop in the East Village section of New York that hand-stitches all their pieces in the city, often right in the back of their small shop. It's a destination for finding truly original and high quality items that are sure...
We caught up with Eddy Chai and Paul Birardi, founders of Odin, for the opening of Den—their fourth boutique in New York (following their two Odin stores and Oliver Spencer). Like Odin, Den carries hip clothing from younger designers that is consummately wearable, however Den will feature one designer at a time for four to six week periods. Similar to a gallery, this exhibit-like...
