To welcome the balmy world of W’menswear Spring Summer 17 to our Universe, we shot a short film to celebrate moments, creation, and stinky train rides with little dialogue.

Let’s move the spotlight over a few steps to All General Made in the UK where founders Jamie and Anna are taking advantage of Britain’s family run tanneries like Joseph Clayton & Sons, as well as world renowned leathers from the US and Italy to celebrate their love for creation. Lauren looks at their British vegetable tanned wallet that became her daily drag around.

Presenting Spring and Summer juju from the W’menswear vintage archives to inspire your wardrobe for the balmy season. This spread features much vintage from WW2, the Vietnam war, and early 20th century pieces, combined with some new season creations and bespoke work from our favourite object artists.

We all know that unless we’ve managed to grow a money tree in the backyard, the investment shoe should be something that speaks to newness, while balanced with the timelessness of familiarity.

Buying denim, or buying a pair of jeans is a really big decision for a lot of us. It’s that pair that you hope will flatter you in all the right places, last for a good long while, and also a style that you won’t get sick of a few weeks in. Choosing denim is not only about fit, but it’s about colour, wash, stitching, pockets, crotch, weight, and don’t be embarrassed if you have no idea what this word ’selvedge’ even means, or why people are so obsessed with raw denim. Don’t worry, Ponytail got-cha-back.

Our friends Battenwear are turning retail topsy-turvy by setting up camp on the 16th floor in NYC’s Garment District. Adventure loving guests are welcomed with homely and heart-warming knick knacks like dinosaur figurines hiding about the store’s shrubbery; vintage maps; the tropical smell of their very own surf wax; as well as stacks of old surfing and camping mags that you can flip through while waiting for your mate to try on different colour combinations of their vast style range for guys and gals.

Summer is well on its way so we’ve put together some inspiration to pack or look for on your balmy travels. Sometimes the most exciting part of travelling is to collect things, momentos, and trinkets that capture that time and place. Presenting your summer travel style guide.
