I’m interested in what the full McNairy x BBC collab will look like.

Love the quilted jacket shirt. And this red jump off is niiiiice.

Fall 2012.

To me this collection is a New York spin on what the Japanese are doing so well right now: striking the perfect balance of dressiness with heritagewear and a dash of sportiness.  All with very specific proportions and textures which although different somehow work.

well.

the engineer boots with the red trim are amazing.

sooooo.

goood.
