You're a man now, dress like it pt. II

We wanted to let the shoe thing have a moment to sink in before we had a second installment. Many of you, no doubt, spent years thinking you were right that sneakers and suits actually looked good together and admitting your wrong can take a while. Now it's time to talk about your watch.
I have to give credit where it is due, you wear a watch so we're half way there already. Presumably you have places to go and at specific times no less. I know you think you have found the perfect watch that transitions from the gym to the office but you're wrong. To start with you're co-working now so you're closer than ever to your colleagues and the graphic designer next to you is complaining about the smell. Go ahead, pull your wrist up to your face, no one's looking... see. That other watch you picked up in Miami a few years ago isn't doing you any favors either. You know the one with the face that's three feet across with a tribal tattoo on the band? Yeah that one. We're actually taking bets weather you have on an Ed Hardy or Von Dutch shirt under your sweater on account of it.
We have come through for you again though. Skagen of Denmark makes sleek, sophisticated time pieces that are incredibly thin and easy to wear. The woven steel and titanium bands are about the thickness of a credit card and the watch itself isn't much bigger. We have some great leather banded watches too. They all come with a limited lifetime warranty and a great watch should last you a lifetime. Best of all, they start at $100.00!

Tigertree - Death To Pixels

Do you remember how exciting it used to be to pick up film? Or deciding if it was worth an extra buck to speed the process up 23 hours? Do you remember the days when grain added texture that wasn't mathematically perfect? We miss those days. We miss looking through actual photo albums. We miss the old, beautiful pictures of our parents at the beach or playing tennis with wooden rackets. I remember growing up wishing I could take pictures like that. The colors were always so vibrant. There was a degree of warmth I couldn't get on my camera and still can't get with my digital camera today. It turns out the camera was the problem!
We are proud to bring you cameras from Lomography that guaranty to provide you memories your kids will try to emulate with technology you don't understand.

First up is the Diana. It's a medium format camera which means you can blow up that incredible shot of your dog as big as you want. The pictures from this camera are breathtaking. We have it with and without the flash, both are starter packs that come with a great book that will help you learn the ways of the Diana as well as inspire you with some great shots.

The Holga is kind of a clut classic. Each one has it's own personality. You'll get over exposures, under exposures, light leaks... It will make you look like a genius. We have it in green and red and it comes with everything you need to get started down to film and (if you want to avoid the light leaks) tape. It also has a book for inspiration.
The Oktomat has 8 lenses that take a quick sequence of pictures. There is even a tool on the website that lets you upload shots and turns them into a movie.
The Action Sampler has four lenses that take a quick sequence of pictures.

Lomography is all about community, so once you get your camera there are micro sites for each on. People share pictures, mods and tips!

Tigertree-New Twin Tips from Fred Perry


I guess Columbus can't get enough Fred Perry. We had to get another supplement to hold us over until our first full spring delivery comes in. We have new colorways for twin tip polos. We have also restocked the tartan lined umbrella with engraved wooden handle for you proper gentlemen. I just watched a couple walk by in tee-shirts, I think you deserve to cut out after lunch and go shopping.
