Figures. I write a post on the new Marshall Artist product and the next day, even more of them arrive.

Cardigans and jackets from Marshall Artist have hit the Casual section shelves, showering us with greys, earth tones, leather accents, and slim fitting pieces that are ideal for layering. Cardigans are $110 to $125, jackets are $195 to $295, and the vest for $165.


Will Poho, for one, has come up with a line of parkas called Moose Knuckles, drawing, he says, from authentic Canadian symbols: moose for the animal and knuckles for the spirit of a hockey fight, with the humour of the brand name also being quintessentially Canadian. Any allusion to another meaning of moose knuckles, which is not printable in this newspaper, is also funny -and makes the name memorable, Poho said.

Poho, who thought he might call the parkas Canadian Heritage, acknowledged his debt to Canada Goose. “They’ve laid a claim,” he said. “They’ve given authenticity to Canadian-made parkas. It’s a cold country, so Canadians must make good parkas. The world has bought into that.”

Staff Picks for November

November 27, 2010

Michael – Goorin Hats ($55 to $65)
An easy choice for Michael, since he’s the one who did the buying to bring the Goorin Hats in. It’s functional for both casual and formal wear and a good alternative as an every day hat. The knit hats are extremely warm and a great gift for its accessory price point.

Joa – Marshall Artist Jacket ($250)
Melissa C – Marshall Artist Cardigan ($125), Jacket ($195)
Great fabrics and detailing, including the leather zipper pockets. And reasonably priced!

Christine – Gold Lab Jacket ($195)
The perfect sweater coat on those milder days. The fur lining makes this jacket very cozy to wear and admire.

Veronica – Gold Lab Jacket ($275)
Not into the Canada Goose this winter? Veronica is into a major fur phase, and this jacket from Gold Lab has a 100% rabbit fur trim with army detailing. Great mixture of textured leather, buckle detail, and a wool peacoat material. It’s your casual and night out on the town coat.

Lindsay – I.Am vest ($250)
Everyone needs a lot of rock star in them for the holidays. This waxed cotton vest works great with a dress shirt or t-shirt, and a pair of jeans or dress pants. Plus the line is by Will.I.Am, and Lindsay is a huge BEP fan. Stand out at your Christmas parties!



Vylan – John Varvatos Jeans ($205), Shirt ($170), and T-Will Belt ($150)
The every day man needs an every day outfit. These slim, straight leg jeans use a coated denim that’s stiff (but not construction paper, raw denim stiff) in a deep brown, gasoline colour with whiskers. A great alternative to your usual denim, and pairs well with black work boots.

The black Varvatos shirt feels like your oldest, favourite shirt. In a washed baby corduroy, it includes detail on the zipper and epaulets. It’s also short enough to wear untucked.

A staple outerwear brand that routinely makes our winter racks are jackets from Gold Lab. This season their jackets have similar looks to last year, but with one special addition: fur! The first two jackets listed below include rabbit fur lining along the collar, while the cozy white wool jacket underneath has polyester fur. All reasonably priced and a stand out item in your closet this winter.
