Classic Swallow Chrome in Honey Leather @ Oi Polloi – £115
Brooks Challenge Leather Tool Bag @ Oi Polloi – £45
(Antique Brown pair – equally as nice, Black + B17 Saddle – tries to be the most understated, but the saddle is too funky)
Fantastic looking pair. By the way, it seems that I should get my bike serviced. It’s driving time soon.
Cheaper saddle. Almost as nice, but not when paired with the tool bag.
Brooks B17 Special Saddle @ Oi Polloi – £69
Here’s one very cool bike setup with a B17 Special Saddle.
Uniform Wares Wrist Watch @ £85 at OKI-NI or 990 SEK at Boldstyle.se

PAVEMENT Gorget 3.2 by Accessorius @ Etsy – $44
A gorget originally was a steel or leather collar designed to protect the throat. It was a feature of older types of armour and intended to protect against swords and other non-projectile weapons. Later, particularly from the 18th century onwards, the gorget became primarily ornamental, serving only as a symbolic accessory on military uniforms.
Very stylish neck armor/warmer. Hand made in Turku, Finland.
Serif Tote Bag @ Little Factory – $25
Less is more. A tote bag for true font enthusiasts.
It has a serif-font styled strap, which is sewn on asymmetrically.
I doubt that Helvetica (sans serif) style would work.

Fox Scarf Orange @ SMUG – £45
100% lambswool, knitted by hand in Scotland.
The most ethical choice when you absolutely have to wear a fox around your neck.

Project RE:cover – Bespoke dresses for old chairs.
Fredrik Färg, Sweden.
Fredrik takes his inspiration from classic tailoring, such as suits and dinner jackets that never go out of style. By using old chairs from flea markets and removing the backrest, replacing it with a new textile dress/structure of mouldable polyester felt, he is creating “slow fashion” furniture, giving the old chairs a new glance.
Limited edition, prices from 2400 euro.
Peggy Indoor Clothespin / Clothes Peg Coat Hanger by Paula Designers in Rome, Italy.
Out of scale clothes pegs become a real coat hanger. This is ‘Peggy’. From a cube fixed to the ceiling hangs eight elastic ropes, which hold as many funny & colored, out of scale clothes pegs.
Very nice idea! I would like to see this done in more classical colors/materials. Wooden pegs and bare steel wire?
Just imagine…

Mr. Nilsson Sofa by Herman Miller.
One of my favorites. It comes in in three lengths: 71 inches, 83 inches, and 94.5 inches.
Smallest (Antidiva Mr Nilsson) seems to go for £1,731.60 (1910€), Largest for £1,976.40 (2180€) at EssentialInteriors.co.uk. Additional cost for non-standard fabrics / leather.
Quite reasonable price for a premium class designer sofa.
Spring is coming, which means that it’s about time to start wearing navy themed clothing.
Navy stripe shirts are a classic staple for men and women. They never go out of style, so don’t fall for cheap items.
Buy only quality. In this case Breton and Basque shirts from classic manufacturers (Saint-James, Orcival or Le Minor).
