So as some of you might have heard, the MOSLEY crew spent some time in a remote area of the Hawaiian Islands. It was a life changing experience for some who have only experienced the concrete jungle.  We were well equipped for this journey and will be relaunching the site in January which will visually explain it all. Till next year.

Kristin, Jon Carlo, Mr. West, and Angela (Left to Right)

This week was Market Week in NY, our team out there has been hustling long hours meeting with the right buyers that will make our coming season a huge success.  After speaking with Kristin over the phone this morning and recapping the whole week. She filled me in on buyers response to the collection ( which has continued to be amazing throughout all market segments) and the little amount of sleep she got, and after receiving this photo in my in-box it all became clear to me how crazy her week had been.  Mosley Tribes and Oliver Peoples team on the east coast attended the premier event in the accessories market called the Annual ACE Awards high fashion accessories designers and design houses were applauded for there creative collections of 2010.  Kristin and Jon Carlo conversed with Mr. West for a brief moment at the awards dinner and thanked him for his continued support of Mosley Tribes and Oliver Peoples. Thank you sir we look forward to more great looks from you.

So a few weeks back i finally had the opportunity to connect with Shawn and Danny of  The LoveWright Co., and was graced with an amazing terry crew sweater.   This past Friday i received one of there new product offering called the “Califas” boot via Etnies Plus, LWR has combined forces to create a boot that is all quality, style and function with the world renown sole from Vibram. Here at MOSLEY TRIBES we are all about the reinterpretation of timeless classics and this boot is clearly that. I have to thank Shawn and Danny for these amazing boots these are definitely ready to be broken in, i know i will have theses for a very long time.

A little history on the Vibram Sole:  In 1935, Vitale Bramani led an expedition into the Italian Alps. The climbers used heavy, hobnailed boots for the approach, but then switched to thin-soled rock climbing boots for the assault. These climbing boots proved fatal when the expedition was hit by thick fog and a blizzard. Six climbers died from frostbite and exposure.

Vibram soles have gone on to conquer Mt. Everest, indeed since 1962 Vibram soles have been on the shoes of K2 conquerors and still now the interest for the competitive ascent and researching the Himalayas and on Karakorum is very much alive. Vibram often takes part in the expedition organized by the CNR (Italian National Research Council) to reach what many define as “the roof of the world”: Everest. On this mountain, at the altitude of 16,568 feet, is the laboratory “Pyramid Observatory”. This facility was created for the purpose of developing high-altitude scientific and technological activities for testing products and executing medical and physiological research. Vibram had detailed studies done on its new products at the Pyramid. By relying on the great experience of the mountain-climbers and technicians of world renown laboratories, Vibram conducted tests whose results are considered absolute, the utmost safety guarantee for mountain- climbers throughout the world.

Puro Califas, from the streets to the mountain tops

The deep bourdoix color is the truth, always worn unlaced with tongues out..

This past friday I had the oppertunity to style MOSLEY into the LWR shoot @ the social trust, I have to say that the new lyndel in fatigue green is amazing, it totally went with many of the looks that were featured, stay tuned for the complete fall looks from The LoveWright Co.

Santa Fe, New Mexico captures an essence much overlooked in today’s fast-paced lifestyle. In a world where we are so driven to “do”, we often forget to simply “be”. The rich soil, lush landscape, and crisp air reminded me of the fact that there is a much larger world outside my own. What a refreshing change of scenery. It wasn’t all sightseeing though. Mosley Tribes in conjunction with The Social Trust handled business for the upcoming Mosley Tribes Fall/Winter 2010 season. Here are some pictures taken along the way.
