On my list - ROTM sand suede chukkas

These have just been put up for preorder on the Run of The Mill shop and I am stoked. Although I've been hell bent on getting a pair of Clarks desert boots I think these would survive a hell of a lot longer. Made in Italy, leather insole and a calfskin lining I am drooling and my wallet is aching for use.

These are for sure on my Christmas list. Next level shit!

this shit cray









A.P.C. SS12

Courtesy of Tres Bien Shop here we have a few images of A.P.C. Spring Summer collection for next year. Taken from a larger collection of garments I see subtle plays with camo, a recent trend making it new and interesting. Bags have definitely seen a resurgence and it's nice to see here a great colour combination using what looks like nylon with contrasting white stitching detail. There is also a few two button single breasted jackets competing for your affection and both look to have a great fit. Take a look below at some of my favourite pieces and check out Tres Bien for additional images

October

It's my birthday month and usually around the time when my fall wardrobe is dusted off and primed for wearing. This year it doesn't seem to be the case. I'm not too sure what the reason is for this belated Summer but I'm partly enjoying it and suspicious at the same time. The thing is that weather in the UK can be very erratic in that one day it's cold and rainy and the next it's sunny and balmy which can throw even the most organised man into disrepute in terms of his decisions of what to wear.

I am one of those guys who gets thrown into a bit of a tizzy when choosing what to wear when the weather is this up and down.

At the moment I'm wearing chino shorts in order to give my legs some air as denim can pose a problem when it comes to hot weather although cuffing them is an option wearing shorts will cool you down a lot quicker rather than just giving your ankles a slight airing.

On the in between days when it's warm but there's a slight breeze oxford cotton button downs has been keeping me both warm but at the same time not sweaty when i'm out especially my short sleeved one from Gap.

As always I opt for no socks and my black Vans have definitely helped me through. I really want a pair of white shoes that'll help reflect some heat from my feet and for sure will be donning some Tretorn Nylites in the coming month.

This month will certainly be interesting in terms of what style choices I make because I never know how the day will pan out.

On my list - Vanishing Elephant 'Lee' beanie

I really would like this beanie from Australian label, Vanishing Elephant. One for keeping warm purposes although Winter doesn't seem to be coming anytime soon with temperatures staying steady around 25-27 degrees (77 - 80 F). And two for vanity reasons because my name is Lee and I'd like to be able to say hey this hat was named after me.
