What’s New: Watches By TSOVET

March 1, 2013

 

A watch is more than just a timepiece, much like a car is more than just a mode of transportation. It is a fashion accessory, and just like your shoes, can make or break your outfit. Also, let’s not forget that a watch is quite often a great reflection of the owners character. What kind of man are you?

The TSOVET brand is heavily influenced by the industrial and aerospace design aesthetic. They infuse the old and new to bring quality watches with a great vintage feel. From the avionic instrumentation/gauges to the classic textured leather straps, these watches are a great addition to any mans collection or perhaps the first for those looking to start.

Check out these new arrivals by TSOVET and see which one best fits your personality.

What’s New: Van Gils

February 27, 2013

   

For Spring, we’re really excited to introduce you to an amazing Dutch brand called Van Gils.  Known for its unique take on a traditional medium, Van Gils is great for the guy that loves to live life. Their latest campaign “No Stitch No Story” perfectly represents the philosophy, craftsmanship as well as the humanic and honest values of the brand.

We’re no role models.
We’re real men modeling our own life.
We hunt for rich experiences.
Amazing stories and unforgettable events.
We count stitches and collect scars.
They are the trophies of life.
The souvenirs that remind us of our acts.

Sometimes we go off the rails and over the edge.
Sometimes we fall and sometimes we crash.
But always in style.
Always surprising.
Always with pride.
And with a smile.
Feeling surprisingly confident.

These stories shape our personality.
They make us interesting.
They make us who we are.

Designer Bio: Tiger Of Sweden “A Different Cut”

February 19, 2013

What do you call a brand that has been through the War, the great depression and now the European crisis? Tiger! Tiger of Sweden started out in Uddevalla, Sweden back in 1903 and now is a global entity with shops in Sweden, Canada, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Germany and South Africa. Take into account their web store and a total of 1,200 re-sellers spanning 18 countries in 3 continents and you might have a sense for why this brand is a pillar in the fashion scene. 

The root of what makes Tiger of Sweden different from other brands lies in their mission statement, “A Different Cut”. No matter how many different owners and designers have passed through this fashion house they have all practiced what they call “A Different Cut” – an expression that goes beyond what you can accomplish with fabrics, scissors, thread, and stitches. “A Different Cut” is a state of mind, one that encourages innovation and creativity. It is this mission statement that allowed the brand to persevere through some very troubled times and continues to make it the success it is today. 

Tiger of Sweden  has come to be known for directional collections that seamlessly blend minimalism with true style. Their interpretation of the suit, frequently re-imagined, incorporates technology and tradition with first class fabric and superior cut and proportion. Risk taking is in their DNA.

Tiger of Sweden’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection is a striking mix of polished professionalism and unflappably cool Scandinavian streetwear. Tailored suits in warm and austere colours with metallic leather jackets- the Warhol inspired collection is all about contrast.
