Flight Club Halloween Releases

Flight Club have just released a mini-collection of t-shirts, longsleeves, and a few crewnecks. The graphics that compose each of these items is simple yet make for very nice looking products. To view the rest of the collection or to purchase, please click here. Get ready for Halloween!

Gravis Indo Expedition Pack

Know for their designs revolving around active lifestyles, the Gravis “Indo” Expedition pack is the latest from the brand as they pair concepts of retro outdoor footwear on a runner’s last. Despite the number of colors making an appearance on this shoe, they all work together quite well providing a pleasing colorway with other nice touches including colored 3M, speckled soles and the proprietary Cloud9 cushioning system. To round out the collection are some matching bags. While the use of gray on the footwear balanced out the overall colorway, the bags are a bit flashier combining the brightest elements seen on the shoes.

Congrats to Philly, 80 and 08

Congratulations to the Phillies for their second World Series Championship in their entire history. A 4-3 win over Tampa, Price couldn't do anything about it. Congrats Phillies, you earned 2008.

















I kinda wanted Tampa to win, but the Phillies are cool and deserve much respect. 80 and 08 Champs. Funny how Eric Hinske was the final out.

3sixteen Fall/Winter Collection and Denim

It has been interesting to watch 3sixteen evolve into what it has become today. Their now mature aesthetics in the contemporary menswear market has never been clearer than in this second delivery for their F/W collection. The collection consists of a Hooded Blazer featuring classical styling of a typical blazer, yet striped with fleece and a Button-Up jacket featuring aeroknit lining, a scuba neck hood, and contrasting side gussets and ribbing. An overall fusion of subtle colours and stripes, to get a successful fall campaign in motion. For Toronto readers, you might be able to get some of this stuff at Capsule or Cartel. Montreal people, hit up Off The Hook.


And something to look forward to, possibly by the end of this month, 3sixteen have started a denim program. Their are 2 models to look forward to, the SL-100x, which is the indigo model and the SL-200x, which is the black model. They embody a slim fit at the thighs and taper down to the feet. Made of Japanese selvedge denim, and produced in America to ensure details were scrutinized. Both models feature special leather patches done by Tanner and custom rivets. Denim will now be available each season, the end of this month being its debut.
