SHIRTS

THERE’S A REASON OUR STYLE IS TIMELESS You don’t stay in business for nearly a century by following the crowd. This becomes especially true when making something as pervasive as the button-down shirt. That’s why we created new patterns and searched swatch books – some dating back to the 1800s – to find existing styles unlike

14

anything you have at home. It’s also the reason we’ve chosen to work with tailors who specialize in custom attire. Their attention to detail matches ours, so that from the collar to the tail, their skilled craftsmanship presents itself in quality, stylish shirts that fit like our shoes: perfectly.


ABOVE & RIGHT: Our extensive research in the fabric library helped us uncover distinct designs and materials.

ABOVE: Our unique cut ensures a fit that is not too tight or too loose to perfectly balance style and comfort. LEFT: A bigger neck, a softer tag, perfectlyproportioned buttons and a collar that is not too pointy or spread too wide — it's the little things that make these garments stand out.

ABOVE: Using wool from Alpacas shorn in the spring guarantees we obtain their prized winter coats and makes the animals comfortable for the summer months. RIGHT: Native to Peru, Alpacas are domesticated animals that are considered environmentally friendly because of their high-yield wool and padded hooves that don’t damage terrain.

ABOVE: Alpaca wool dyes well so that garments can be made in an array of bright and diverse hues. LEFT: Fine and lightweight yet warm and strong, Alpaca wool also has a long staple length perfect for weaving.

THE SEARCH FOR EXCELLENCE KNOWS NO BORDERS Though we rely on Made in the USA when we can, we also strive for authenticity in everything we do and make. Sometimes in seeking the finest the world has to offer our travels take us to the ends of the earth. Case in point, for the best Alpaca sweaters we went all the way to Peru. This way the wool is shorn,

treated, dyed and woven by locals who are experts in their respective trades, thereby making the finished products genuine in appearance and quality. Once you experience how these sweaters deliver tons of warmth with no bulkiness, you’ll appreciate us going the extra mile so it looks like you do too.

QUALITY DESIGN, INSIDE & OUT Great American design isn’t just about appearances. It goes deeper than that and when it comes to creating our apparel, we do the same. When choosing the fabric for our new line of sport coats, vests and pants we challenged our supplier to reach into their archives for high quality materials rarely seen on the market.

22

This desire to only use the best of the best carries over to design, and not just on the sophisticated yet relaxed styles that define these garments. It’s also apparent in special details we’ve crafted into each piece of clothing so that those looking closely will understand that the maker and wearer share a common bond: high standards.


ABOVE: Sharing a commitment to quality, our fabric purveyor let us mine their collections for designs and textiles that are classic yet stylish. On the sport coat, the vibrant lining is also featured underneath the collar, giving you an additional pop of color and panache when you turn it up. LEFT & BELOW: By working directly with tailors and suppliers to create products that are handcrafted in the USA, our clothing adds both distinction and value to your wardrobe.

ABOVE: Along with this elbow patch, special touches like a ready-made pocket square, tinted button-hole and expert sizing are unexpected amenities that emphasize your good taste without trying too hard.

L E AT H E R AC C E S S O R I E S

CRAFTSMANSHIP IS THE PRODUCT OF VALUES AND SKILL Started in a dorm room in the Sixties to make leather vests for the counter-culture, our small leather goods manufacturer was initially selected for his expertise in choosing and working leathers for iPhone and iPad cases, wallets and money clips. But we were also struck by his familiar story. Through recessions,

26

outsourcing and factory closings, he’s stayed loyal to his employees, his small New England town and traditional fabrication process. In taking the road less traveled, he’s created a host of new American jobs and a successful multi-generational business with a longstanding tradition of excellence to pass down to his son.


ABOVE: The leather used in our products was stored for years as if just waiting for a partner with a passion for quality materials and fine craftsmanship. LEFT: It takes the deft hand of an expert to work with this soft and pliable tannage.

ABOVE: Adding specialized design elements gives a traditional feel to items made for modern functions. To ensure quality, all design concepts are made by hand in the USA. RIGHT: The partnership with Allen Edmonds allowed this company to reopen a part of their production facility that had lay dormant for years.

A LEGACY WORTH CARRYING ON Though we’ve been in business for nearly a century, we still operate our company on the ideals – heritage, loyalty and service – originally set down by Elbert W. Allen and his sons. That’s why we chose a fourth generation family business as the manufacturer of our leather briefcases, duffels and messenger bags.

By keeping production on-shore and always using the finest materials, they make products that have great style but also stand the test of time. This type of dedication and accountability is priceless, which is why we know you’ll be proud to carry just about anything in one of our bags.

Burnished Walnut

To create the exceptional finish on our walnut leather, we had to break the rules a little bit. First, we take warm, light colored calfskin and burnish the exterior by hand on a traditional wheel. Then, we repeat the process on another wheel — the same one we use on our black shoes. This painstaking process gives the leather its unique finish and imbues it with contrasting low-lights for a rich depth of color. What you end up with is a sophisticated shoe that remains true to its character, for footwear that is as unmatched as it is uncommon.
