Cool Hunting
Erik Schedin recently released another trio of products for his curated online shop, the highlight of which is the Danner Light Boot. Designed in 1979 it was the first ever boot to utilize Gore-Tex technology. Currently only made for the Japanese Market, the boots are now available in Europe exclusively on Schedin's store. An original Acne whistle and wool baseball cap round out the release of featured products which all share a distinct clean, understated design.
At first glance, Schedin's goods might not seem all that connected but a closer look unveils an obvious thematic approach to each release. Seems like you'd be ready for a hunting trip or a long walk through the woods with this latest pack. Schedin, a Swede, seems to prefer the old American style which has been steadily gaining popularity for a while now.
Schedin started his shop four years ago after graduating Beckmans College of Design. Presently the shop carries eight different products. For more info and to purchase any of the goods visit Erik Schedin.

Graduates of RISD and Industrial Design & Sculpture, these two young designers have crafted a neck tie that the wearer feels like he's getting away with something when he dons. Two...
Skin-deep fashion gets literal with these synthetic skin accessories made by French artist Olivier Goulet. Marisa wrote about them today on Needled, pointing out that the totes, purses, laptop sleeves, belts, and bracelets can be customized with tattoos and piercings. She also explains how the creepy chic aesthetic's purposefully aged-looking material is intended to reference natural "instinctive" bodies versus the artificial....
Alena Hennessy introduced her work to us and we liked what we saw. She's an artist from Asheville, NC who expresses herself through painting, drawing, t-shirts and tiles. Her work is soft and feminine and natural. We liked it so much we've included her scarf in our Gift Guide today....
I really had no expectation that this weekend's trip to Dallas, TX would include finding something to post to the site. I stumbled on a store in the West Village called Cowboy Cool filled with all sorts of rocker cowboy gear. These $2250 skull boots caught my attention (obviously). Handmade by Canada's Liberty Boot Company, they're apparently the brand of choice by celebrities galore....
