I’m heavily considering it, what makes it so special?

Quite a lot of things but primarily, it's a dope looking blazer that wears like a sweatshirt. The fabric is truly exclusive to them and made on machines that are nearly extinct.

I own 5 because the fabric options have all been so good, but now I've checked most of the boxes for "blazers I need". Got a couple grey houndstooth, a couple different navy, one brown.

Hey guys, I was curious hows that leather on the Clinch/Black Sign? Did you get a chance to get a sample or something? Super cool boots and I'm considering it but not familiar with that particular cowhide, Is it similar to chromexcel cowhide? I'm on the fence if I'll put those dudes on or not but I really like the wildness of em.

We haven't touched the leather but from what we understand, it's pretty special. Much more of a luxe leather than CXL cowhide.

I hope whoever copped the size 40 of the Nelson jacket is happy I’m definitely not salty ?

Jeremy can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe we have more Nelsons in transit right now, expected to land within the next 5-10 days. I am off site, but inventory records show me that we are expecting a size 40 in that delivery. So do not despair!

NEW ROTOTO! I'm not gonna do the caps lock thing, I already did that. I don't actually have a bit this morning, I am in the woods with my girlfriend for her birthday, so you will all have to suffer with a post full of images and not words.

We ordered more than a few thousand pairs of RoToTo socks in all manner of styles, sizes, and colors. RoToTo produce our most popular socks by a significant margin, and it only takes one pair to see why... no, seriously, get one pair, that's all it will take to convince you. Nothing I write will be as compelling as putting a pair of comfy room socks on after getting out of bed, or drinking a morning coffee in some reversible mohair socks.

Click any of the photos below to be transported into our RoToTo zone, and go nuts. Though we got them by the thousands (literally), they're already moving fast because I keep telling everyone to buy them, so act sooner than later to secure yourself your desired size, style, and color.

A day late but never a dollar short, I'm here to post about what we released (yesterday). Monday's release was a fresh new delivery from Y'2 Leather, which turned into these incredible Suede Type 3 jackets after we opened the box (alchemy?).

I don't know how global logistics work, to be honest, and I'm worried that if I look too deep into it, everything will just fall apart. Schrodinger's logistics, or something. Anyways, we pay invoices, I whisper a little prayer, and then a few weeks later things arrive.

Anyways, the jacket. We're very particular when it comes to Type 3 jackets, because of how widespread and common they are as a style. That said, when the right one comes along, we don't hesitate.

Y'2's Type 3 has the exact fit we look for, not too short or long in the body, hitting just like our favorite vintage trucker jackets. The chest is relaxed enough to layer under, but not particularly wide or roomy - just right. It's lined with a tonal brown nylon, soft and slick for sliding over your favorite flannels, and comfortable enough to wear with just a tee.

The leather is a 1.3mm full grain steerhide roughout suede (that's a mouthful) - this is the reverse side of Y'2's oiled steerhide. Ultra soft and supple, this leather requires virtually no break-in whatsoever. It's dyed a rich tobacco brown, with a ton of tonal depth - this leather absolutely pops in just about any lighting, but it looks especially incredible in sunlight.

New Y'2 Leather is available online & in Oakland now.

That's all for today (yesterday). See you folks tomorrow with a whole bunch of new news, and also some deliveries!
