Inspired By: 10engines
by Joe
I recently bought one of Mr. Fox’s (as he describes them), “…decent cold weather, foam-lined, chambray hats cut and sewn in the USA with the old 10e rope logo. Instant old man apparel…” How can you go wrong with that? Great guy, great blog (possibly the blog that got you to start reading these kinds of posts), and most certainly, one of my daily reads. James is like a lightning rod for great finds, domestic to sartorial. Even though “the hats in the mail”, I know exactly what I’ll partner with it once it arrives. Perfect hat for the Saturday morning jaunt to the local dive diner for a scrapple and egg on white toast and a horrible cup of coffee (you make it yourself around here if you want it to taste good). At 25 bucks, you can’t go wrong with this little number…I’ll be wearing mine like this:

I love those Hamilton shirts.
killer boots. sort of dress-logger, time for a comeback…
thx joe.
They are nice Skip….although in all honesty, I have yet to pull the trigger on one. You?
Those White’s are as comfortable as they are pretty…err…rugged. Matt from Imogene+Willie insisted I put a pair on….and I left with them on my feet. His are beat to hell and worn through on the sole…but White’s will put a new leather sole on for 80 bucks, I believe. Oh, and Made in the USA since before the North fought the South (according to their site). You’d be happy in a pair of White’s, J.
Every time I go into I+W I see those White’s and love them. Their denim is exceptional too, great call. If I hadn’t just bought some Indy Boots I’d be really looking deep in my wallet for those White’s.
Greg-Those White’s couldn’t be any more comfortable….I almost went with the Indy boot myself, but when I put the White’s on it was all over. Alden is a strong choice as well, though. Have you seen Matt’s (from I+W) White’s? They are spectacular…as someone else said, it looks like he kicked everything he saw. Thanks for the comments.
