Altamont Men’s Trademark Jacket

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

Here is another winner from Altamont. We love this light military style jacket which arrives just in time for the warming weather of Spring. The slightly worn look is right on target and the jacket nice flourishes of style like the blade zipper head, and the side arm patch.

It’s not often that we need to stray from our favorite blue jeans these days, but we were interested in these nice new pants from Altamont as a possible alternative. The brown houndstooth pattern is quite stylish when combined with the black overstitching. the pants appear to be a five pocket chino style and should be perfect for all occasions.

Stabo Bivvy Trousers: You supply the pole

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Someone at the Stabo company stumbled upon a warehouse full of old WWII canvas tents and had the brilliant idea to recycle them into pants. These brown or green pants have obviously got a nice authentic worn in look to them, and the rolled up cuff came through the process of design and redesign (the length is long, but they claim they will shorten them for you if you like). They are hand crafted and have additional patches added by hand to areas which were worn through. The cut is loose, and they have a nice embroidered pocket on the back for extra class.

Raw 7 Women’s Tiger Long Coat: stunning coat for wealthy tiger lovers

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

There’s so much to love about this super spendy cashmere coat from Raw 7. Gaze at it’s splendor, and know that if I could scrape together the needed cash this would be the best jacket of all time for me, and I might opt to be buried in it. Truly a wearable work of art, this pearl colored 100% cashmere coat falls to the knee and features a large tiger graphic across the coat tail. The tiger is bright eyed and ready to engage while surrounded by flowers - perhaps catnip! The embroidered flowers wrap around the sides a bit, plus there’s an additional bit of floral goodness up on the center back panel. This fitted and sexy jacket also features a detachable sash belt - looks great on the model, but you are not stuck with it.

Organic Seasonal High Leg Printed Brief: warmth of skin changes printed design

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

Cute, organic and these trippy panties use thermochronic ink in their tree graphic? I was not familiar with the term “thermochronic” - it means that once the panties are warmed by your skin the leaves on the tree disappear. Pretty cool! Brought to you by the British company Greenknickers, these underwear are bright yellow with a tree design gracing the front. Made of 100% organic cotton, these undies have a high rise waist and full rear coverage.

Brought to you by the indie design company, Fuzzy Balls Apparel, all available designs were created by artist/owner Roy Wasson Valle. He offers men’s, women’s and children’s apparel.

We here at Birdfight are smitten with Roy’s whimsical artist stylings.

Monday, March 10th, 2008

Ok this is a damn funny shirt, and it will be a guaranteed conversation starter. Wear it to the next family dinner and see if you can get your relatives to admit which one of them reviews their processed food stuffs post processing, oh yeah by the way, corn’s got nothing on pine nuts. I didn’t find much info on the Wollyhood company that designed this so I’ll just link you over to the Urban Outfitters site, and hope they didn’t swipe the design.
