This weeks issue of WWD Mens featured the new up and coming style called the Burke by MOSLEY TRIBES in Tiger Tortoise, which is a custom color that the MOSLEY TRIBES team created specifically for this season. The Burke is such a great style that will be coming to the marketplace very soon.  The keyhole bridge mixed with the smaller round optical inspiration is really hot in the streets right now and was well received last week at our press preview day in New York.  And this press hit only reiterates our feelings on how strong this colorway is and will be with the consumer.

The Honor Fraser team has begun to assemble an impressively comprehensive collection of Andy Warhol’s Camouflage series for an exhibition on the West Coast, the likes of which have never been seen. The event will showcase Camouflage canvas silkscreens and for the first time, prints from the series, alongside with previously unseen test proofs. The series was created by taking photographs of camouflage fabric, cutting the patterns into layers and then screening them onto canvases. The exhibition will run from October 30 until February 5, 2011 and will be accompanied by a catalogue designed by Brian Roettinger and with an essay by Vincent Fremont.

So this morning I had a meeting about a special project that i am working on for MOSLEY.  So i was invited to this secret collection, well its more like a stockpile of Army Navy surplus that was a huge warehouse filled from floor to ceiling with amazing equipment and global military BDU’s.  They had US, European and Russian castaways, I climbed to the top of this pile that was about 11 feet high to snap the photo above, it was canvas in all directions. I could have spent all day digging and finding many gems, i will be back. There is so much inspiration here, the location will remain in my brain, just thought i would give you a taste of my morning.

Pants, Jackets, Bags, Boots, Gas masks, biological gear, tents, parachutes, ponchos…amazing!

The original…sorry BAPE.

Dutch Field Jacket, I’ll take 2 please.

Love the simplicity and functionality.
