Essentials

In keeping with the theme of gearing up for the colder seasons,  one of the most essential items a man should have in his wardrobe is a good parka. I like this Perfecto Brand by Schott N.Y.C. joint — pure banger.

It’s made from Schott’s 1970 dead stock 60/40 nylon cotton poplin, with a little brass hardware thrown in just to keep it extra.

One must appreciate every single element of this beautiful American made garment. The color, the material, the fit…  $400 at perfectobrand.com Now I just need Schott to restock my size and I’m good to go.

With sweater weather fast approaching, I’ve gradually started adding Fall/Winter items to my wardrobe, beginning with the essentials. My first purchase: A classic black knit cap. You know how particular I am about quality garments, so I payed a visit to The Barre Army Navy Store and picked up this government issue Watch Cap. Warm, versatile, extremely durable and most importantly, made in U.S.A according to military specification.

A few highlights:

– 100%, 54′s US Standard Wool
– Mothproof
– Colorfastness (fastness to light, laundering and perspiration)

 

It’s currently on discount for $6.79. However, when you visit the site you’re immediately greeted with an additonal 10% discount and an optional survey, and to top that off you receive another $3.00 for simply liking the item on Facebook. Thank you and you’re welcome.
