Review: J.Crew Gingham Utility Shirt
I’ve had J.Crew’s latest utility shirt for about two weeks now and I’m pretty happy with the purchase so far.

The cardigan I received did not really live up to its copy [...]

J.Crew’s Sun Faded Oxford Shirts
J.Crew just put up these great looking sun faded oxford shirts on their website and are available in an assortment of pastel colors. I haven’t seen them in store yet, but I’d be interested in how they compare to the vintage oxford shirts that they used to sell (which had gone through an extra washing [...]

J.Crew New Arrivals for April
There are some new arrivals on jcrew.com this evening, including some great stuff for warmer weather. The more interesting item that showed up is a serious leather bag from a New York based company called Wexler & Co. who have a very Filson-like motto: “the best is good enough.” If I ever need to retire [...]
