Footwear | Common Projects - Achilles Vintage Low White

strolled through Barneys today...it was love at first sight...




*Additional Information
The classic Achilles comes in a vintage version. The sole is a bit yellow and slightly slimmer yet the same quality. Upper in rugged nubuck that will look better and better when using and all lined with leather. Nappa detailing on the heel and contrast laces. This seasons favorite in the office. Extra set of laces included. Made in Italy. Please note that Common Project runs big in the sizes so I recommend you go down one size.

Single Man Made | ROY DENIM

attention to detail...



Roy's RS1 - Straight Leg Jean

*Additional Information
Roy's jeans are made by one man, every aspect from the patterns to the leather patch starting out as a large piece of cowhide, Roy makes one pair at a time and nothing is automated. The studio where the jeans are made is filled with vintage pre-1960's machines by Union Special and Singer, the hardware is all made in Japan YKK, there are seven different thread types used, and the Roy signature on the pocket-bag is freehand chain-stitched.
