Dec_Ad_Spotlight_Ball_Buck
Our buddies at Ball and Buck are having a contest right now in which the winner gets an all expenses paid trip for two to one of New England’s most prestigious hunting preserves, where they’ll get to spend the morning shooting clays, and the afternoon hunting pheasant with B&B’s C.E.O. Enter here.


Epaulet

Dec_Ad_Spotlight_Epaulet
These new 8 oz Union Jersey Tees from Epaulet are made in the USA out of – you guessed it – Union Jersey, a super thick and sturdy Pima cotton fabric, similar to what you’d find in athletic tees from the 1950s. Four colors are available. See them all here.


Glendon Lambert

Glendon Lambert’s new Flannel Dot ties are made in Brooklyn out of medium-weight cotton flannel from Japan that will gradually soften over time, just like your favorite pair of jeans (or favorite flannel shirt). See them here.


Gustin

The Lodge

Handcrafted in the USA, Sante Fe Stoneworks’ knives, money clips and bottle openers feature rare and beautiful prehistoric materials. The knife pictured above? The handle is made out of 15,000 year old Woolly Mammoth tooth. I shit you not. To see it, and plenty more like it, head over to The Lodge.


Oak Street Bootmakers

Dec_Ad_Spotlight_OSB
More like Oak Street Beltmakers. That’s right, OSB’s making belts now, and they’re pretty sweet. The leathers are Horween, the hardware is solid brass, and the belts are all handstitched in the USA. See them here.

These new Work Pants from Topo Designs are made in the USA out of heavy duty duck canvas, and feature all kinds of make-em-last details like double-front panels and triple-stitched seams. Check them out here.


Winter Session

Dec_Ad_Spotlight_Winter_Session
And finally, just in time for the dark days of winter, Winter Session has released an all black collection.
