Corporate Makeover With Business Systems Part 2

After seeing the incredible transformation we did he’s back for round two. As Toronto’s leading copier and the official supplier to big name corporations like the ACC and the Maple Leaf sports group one can definitely appreciate Franks desire to ensure his team looks their best. To help his team them get there, founder Melissa Austria got into the trenches and personally styled each of these individuals to ensure they looked and felt their best.

Gotstyle MANual: Guide To Laundry Symbols

December 8, 2014

Even the best of us sometimes find ourselves at a loss when it comes to reading laundry symbols on our clothes.  As such, we take our best guess and do what most men do, put everything in a cold wash and hope for the best. For all intents and purposes, reading laundry symbols can be as much fun as reading Egyptian hieroglyphics (without the exotic thousand year old history).  Feeling the frustration of men all over, we felt that it was our solemn duty to demystify this generational quandary.

After searching high and low we are pleased to provide you with a lexicon that could quite possibly be the answer to all your laundry needs.  A great man once said, “with great knowledge comes great power”.  Thus, use your power wisely and be sure to practice safe laundering.

Item Of The Week: Saxx Vibe Modern Fit Boxers

December 4, 2014

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.
