Harris Tweed Ties on the Cheap
Ties, a paradox for some men, leaving them unsure as to how, what, or when they should be worn. However, if you consider yourself a tie-connoisseur, you should be able to appreciate Harris Tweed’s mini-collection of traditional classy tweed ties. Despite having a web site peeled out of 1999, the ties are an affordable answer to similar 60-80 dollar ties up at J.Crew, and will only run you 30 bucks or so.
Pick them up at Harris Tweed Ties (U.K.)

Incase 2010 Spring Canvas Collection
Props to Hypebeast for the first look on the Spring 2010 collection. Having had my hands on the black Incase canvas collection, the line gets a nod for both build quality and aesthetics. The Spring 2010 collection dons a sterile grey that makes for a clean minimal look for carrying any and all of your goods.
As always, Incase chocks each bag full of useful interior compartments and most importantly, great laptop protection. Each bag has a laptop compartment coated with lush faux-fur, that fits up to a 15″ MacBook Pro (real talk, Incase is for Mac’s). In addition to solid laptop protection, each bag has a quick-access iPhone pocket and an adjustable shoulder strap.

Adidas x Ransom : Spring Boots
With brands like Pony, Pro-Keds, and P.F. Flyer’s undergoing brand overhauls, what better time for Adidas to drop some new styles into their line up. This spring Canadian brand Ransom mixes it up with Adidas yet again making for yet another lightweight boot worth investing in. This springs boot is coined the Creek and is available in two colorways, a two-toned graphite, and creamy vanilla. The two-toned aesthetic stems from the models blend of both nylon and leather.
Look for them this year at Ransom Holding Co.

Band of Outsiders x Sperry – Spring 2010
Today we take a look at Sperry’s topsider collaborative effort with Band of Outsiders. Having done a number of co-produced projects together, and each one getting better than the last, the Spring and Summer 2010 collection is shaping up to be quite the addition. While maintaining the classic topsider profile, each Sperry-B.o.O look is a clean, fresh take on the ever-popular boat shoe form. Materials range, but each model is topped with a suede upper, leather lacing, and crisp aluminum eyelets on the traditional topsiders.
Pick up a pair this spring or today at Tres Bien

GaGa Magazine Cover Collective
It certainly has been the year of the GaGa. Starting from the seedy Burlesque scene, then on to Lower East New York local scene, followed by being the apple of Akon’s eye, GaGa has managed to blow up every chart, every iPod, every-everything.
The Fame Monster certainly was a prophetic name for the iconic diva’s debut album. That said, in addition to holding the throne of pop diva queen and embodying the proverbial essence of a Fame Monster, GaGa has become a esoteric style symbol in her own right. The GaGa has been gracing the covers of magazines in ways no woman has gone before.
So in lieu of our GaGa love, we’ve put together a collection of some of GaGa’s best covers. Enjoy.

Polaroid Relaunch, The PIC 1000
Months back we featured a tidbit on speculation of Polaroid toying around with the idea of relaunching their iconic camera line. Today, that speculation is becoming a reality as Polaroid has partnered with The Impossible Project to redefine and breath some fresh air into the brand. Funded and supported by Summit Global Group, Polaroid will be unveiling their new camera, the PIC 1000 later on this year. The PIC 1000 will be available in a variety of colors, cost under $100 (I know, vague), and will use the traditional Polaroid Color 600 Instant Film.
Keep an out for a late 2010 launch at retailers near you.

L.L. Bean Signature Footwear
The concept of boat shoes, moccasins, and work-boots have propagated nationwide at this point, and there doesn’t seem to be an end to countless takes on each look. However, L.L. Bean is debuting their own signature footwear line for men and they look damn stunning. Albeit, coined moccasins I’d say they could pass for an amalgamation of boat shoe and moccasin. The best part? They’re reasonably priced for the every-man.
- Eastport Handsewn Ranger Moc Suede…$89
- Eastport Handsewn Ranger Moc Leather…$85
- Eastport Handsewn Blucher Moc Suede…$79

Maia Albers for Trojan Pkg. Redesign
Maia O. Albers, a designer hailing from the south, specifically Savannah Georgia, has managed to turn orthodox condom packaging into a modern minimalist work of art. Albers axed the traditional schlocky cardboard box and branding for a svelte, mute-toned, band-wrapped casing that makes you feel like you’re opening a gift, only to later give the gift. Whether or not Trojan actually considers the avante-garde approach has yet to be seen, but sign us up.
