N’East Illustrated, Vol. 31

WSFaussHalsy
It’s fitting that Mr. Porter would include a still of Robert Redford in Little Fauss and Big Halsy in their roundup of iconic denim. Although not my favorite movie of all time, I love it for Robert Redford, Lauren Hutton, and the incredible style.

WSWoolrichAlmond
Almond Surfboards has collaborated with the iconic heritage label Woolrich on a new capsule collection called Wax & Wool. Though not an obvious partnership, I like that the two brands are trying to bring wool back to the beach in a genuine way.


WSPonytailJournal
I recently discovered The Ponytail Journal and its perfect tagline “w’menswear.” Writer Lauren Yates visits shops, cooks delicious recipes, and travels to all of the places we wish we could go. Yuri Matsuoka took this photo of Lauren sporting Japanese denim brand Kapital in the their Ebisu shop.


WSLevis
The SS15 Levi’s Vintage Clothing collection is based on two concepts: Bowl-a-Rama and Icons. This shot is from their Icons lookbook, which is filled with pieces and moments that remind me of looking at my parents’ college yearbooks.


WSNewBalance
Range went behind the scenes of the New Balance Made in USA ad in Sneeze Magazine with the ad’s photographer Nick Joseph. It’s one of my favorite print ads in a while, and it was great to read about the collection, the project, the models, and who the genius was behind the styling (spoiler, Elizabeth Birkett).
