MAIL BAG
We all get a lot of emails trying to sell to us, and quite frankly, most of it is just noise that gets deleted immediately. As the holidays approach there are some stand-out drops that I like this season, as well as some terrific stuff from friends whose products I will always endorse as great craft and value.
Noah has dropped their latest Barbour collaboration in bold patterns (duck camo) and bright colors (I got the red Bedale for Clara) that are good addition to any Barbour collection.
Ralph Lauren Polo is getting back to their roots with loads of heavy tweed suiting and outerwear in their latest Originals collection.
My friend Jake Mueser has a new line of the soft Italian constructed Campania jackets in stock that should not be missed.
Sid Mashburn is my go-to for basics like 5 pocket cords and tartan flannel shirts.
On the other side of the pond you have Campbell’s of Beauly for Fair Isle and Donegal sweaters, William Crabtree and Sons for wool flannel gilet vests and The Merchant Fox for tweed utility jackets.
For those following along with the latest smoking guide from Aaron Sigmond you may want order your Cuban sticks from EGM cigars—they will ship to your door for the holidays.
And now for some shameless hawking of my latest collabs and goods:
The Wm Brown Cocktail Collection that contains the Negroni and martini books and two sets of coasters.
The Spey Jacket in collaboration with Seil Marschall
The latest Scarosso William boot design for fall in calf and suede
The gold signet ring with hand engraved initials from Petochi Jewelers in Rome.
And finally, the Wm Brown target pin and cufflinks from Tyler and Tyler, handcrafted in England, are finally back in stock.
