ITEM OF THE WEEK

Take the hard line with Vitaly’s Kusari bracelet. The chunky, stainless steel piece has a modern rocker vibe that complements off-duty gear (think denim, plaid and lots of black or white tees) and works to add a finishing detail to casual evening looks.

What is Kusari? Kursai was used in samurai armour from the 1270s but particularly from the Nambokucho period of 1336-1392. The rings were lacquered black to prevent rusting and were always stitched onto a backing of cloth or leather. Kusari was often concealed entirely between layers of cloth.

Woolrich has been synonymous with quality outdoor clothing for over 180 years. The company got its start in 1830 when John Rich, an immigrant from England, built his first woolen mill in Plum Run, Pennsylvania. Today the little village of Woolrich is still headquarters for the company, where they continue to produce quality products like this buffalo check throw. A great gift idea, and a perfect addition for those cold winter nights.

“Every click of every loom in the Woolrich woolen mill tells a truly American tale. The story begins with the founding steps of John Rich selling wool by Mule Cart and continues through a new era of proud American manufacturing.

Founded in 1830, the Woolrich of today remains uniquely committed to creating enduring blankets of unmistakable quality.”

Bring your shorts’ ease of wear to an almost inappropriate level with these Saxx boxers. The dedicated underwear company combines serious technology and innovation with fine fabrics, comfort and style for a luxurious fit that is utterly addictive.

ABOUT SAXX:

On a fishing trip in Alaska, our inventor experienced intense chafing that left him wondering why men’s underwear wasn’t designed for how men are actually built. When he returned, he couldn’t shake the notion that a better design was possible. He teamed up with a designer and started brainstorming and working on prototypes. On the fourteenth attempt they combined four key innovations resulting in a new level of comfort and performance.

THE TECHNOLOGY:

Every pair of SAXX features a combination of technology and innovation that makes them the most comfortable, high-performance underwear ever made. The Articulated Front Pouch and Patented Internal Mesh Panels combine to give you the room you need, while preventing unwanted friction. Each pair also features a Moisture Wicking Waistband that keeps you dry when the temperature rises. Lastly, we use a wide range of cutting edge technical fabrics, each with a specific feature to enhance your wearing experience.
