Legendary Queen Street store Due West and neighbour (aptly named counterpart) Next Door will be launching online November 1st and to commemorate the launch, my compadre Ramon Charles and I have been working on a fashion film.

My lacklustre updates and lack thereof are in part due to focusing on the vid. But rest assured JTNB is back in full effect….

here is the teaser trailer for the piece.  let me know what ya think…

DWNDclothing.com teaser trailer.

have a look at Miss “Friday Night Lights” Minka Kelly, in November’s Esquire magazine.  The mag crowns Miss Kelly the Sexiest Woman Alive, and when staring drooling analyzing the following snaps, I gotta say I can’t argue with that.

broken social scene “forced to love” – nice.

I am really loving the current Fall collection collabo from Schott NYC for high end new york department store Barneys.

They really got a drool worthy collection of coats goin on….

amazing plaid peacoat. check.

sick bomber jackets. check and check.

classic “Brando” perfecto jacket. check.

killer black on black varsity jacket. check.

I love the military roots of the Sam Duffle Bag by Wintercheck Factory.  Used by US soldiers since the early 40s these vintage duffles have been given some new features including grommets with metal loop and snap hook closure, backpack straps and handle, a snap side pocket and have been given an enzyme and rock treatment for softness.

dope.

ooooooooo

sick chair from Pedrali, its called the “Pasha 660” and comes in Sleek black, clean white, clear and smoked transparent.

very “louis-ghost-on-royal-steroids.”

you had me at smoked polycarbonate.
