another dope pair of shoes from Grenson...

I wasn't too sure about these at first glance, but after I saw these kitted by Style Salvage I realized how rad these really were. These shoes will definitely get you ready for Fall/Winter. The uppers are waxed canvas, which are perfect for keeping the wet out while the toe caps and heels are leather, making for a super versatile shoe for wet and cold weather.

Buy these now here.

Happy Shopping,

Tapping Into Our Reserve | Reserve Supply Co.

what, huh oil? who said somethin' bout oil?

It's no surprise that one of the biggest topics across the nation is oil prices and with oil prices reaching $107 a barrel on Friday (a two and a half year high) gas prices continue to soar to all time highs ($3.29 for Regular in Houston). I know that's cheap across the nation, but this is Houston for heaven's sake, that's what we are known for! Anyways, I'm not here to talk about oil, but another great "Reserve" located here in Houston.

Reserve Supply Co. is another great store geared towards men located on Washington Avenue next to Houston's Catalina Coffee. By no stretch of the imagination is this your prototypical men's store. As you step into the industrial space complete with exposed brick walls and hardwood floors, customers are greeted by a beautiful antique motorcycle. As my testosterone levels began to shoot through the roof I proceeded to grunt like Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor...ok maybe not, but I really wanted to.

As you proceed to make your way throughout the store, you are exposed to an amazing array of products ranging from Pendleton, Nixon, Ray Ban, selvedge denim from San Francisco based Tellason, Crate, Rail Car, Nike SB, Red Wing, Converse, Davida and much, much more.

Reserve Supply Co. is a reflection of store owner Jason Bruen's interest as well as love for motorcycles and skateboards. Before opening Reserve Supply Co., Bruen operated the largest skate park in Louisiana (Lafayette to be exact). What's refreshing about this shop is the fact that there seems to be no specific target market that Jason is aiming at capturing. The Reserve Supply Co. has offerings for kids who love to skate to men who have interests in the classics or seeking quality products.

All in all, Reserve Supply Co., is another dope shop here in Houston with a great store owner who keeps it  real. By real I mean a down to Earth good 'ole dude with loads of Southern hospitality. So if you happen to be in the Downtown/Washington area stop on by! And if you happen to be in the area this Saturday, April 9th, be sure you stop by for their GRAND OPENING!

Sincerely,

AFS

Random Thoughts | Bandana Print

necktie, pocket square, now shirt...

Excuse me while I search for my marbles. Not quite sure what's gotten into me as of recent, as I'm usually one who likes to stay in the confines of my boundaries when it comes to apparel, especially shirts (ie. ginghams, plaids, tattersalls, plain oxfords) but I'm really feelin' the "Bandana Print" of these shirts not to mention the "Mao" style collar. What I like about these Banced Collar Shirts from WWM is the attention to detail on the print as well as the straight (I didn't say boxy) fit of the shirt. Seeing as it's Daika's last collection for WWM, he's pulled out all the stops! I'm lovin' this shirt which would be a fun shirt to mix up the monotony of all the boring shirts you  may have in your closet. I just don't suggest you go wearing the red print shirt down in LA...just sayin'.

J.Crew | Autumn/Winter 2011

It's not even Summer and I'm thinking about Winter? One can see why as you peruse through these great photos from A Continuous Lean. J. Crew hits it out of the ballpark again with some really nice pieces for Fall/Winter.  One thing that should be duely noted is J.Crew's uncanny style of layering (check out last year's trucker jacket under a sports coats). All in all, the collection is solid which is no surprise. As J.Crew continues to hit its stride and evolve from their once preppy ways, one question is certain, "What will they think of next?"
