ON & BEYOND

When it’s as hot as it is right now on the eastcoast, Man’s best friends are: water, AC and a good T-shirt. Emilcotoni of Italy is one of the top makers of cotton. The main characteristic distinguishing Emilcotoni from other common yarns is the raw material selection, which are exclusively made out of Egyptian originated cotton with extra long staples. The knit is light, breatheable and will most definitately keep the same, perfect shape even after many washes. I am ready, Summer.

Stefano sent over a little gift to Maura and I. So stoked about the Sea Island Giza Cotton. Soft like butttaaaa. Thanks STEF.

I’m obsessed with outerwear, I think I have every type of jacket imaginable; from ma-1′s to harringtons & fishtail parka’s to bubble goose. Released in 08, the vis101 jacket is based from the construction of a classic denim jacket. Made of Giza cotton, it feels like I’m wearing bed sheets. I stumbled on one and didn’t hesitate one extra second to pick it up. This is definitely one of the nicest outerwear pieces by the brand along with the Townsend & Nomad.
