From Pitti 2011 comes this in-depth look at Adam Kimmel’s forthcoming collaboration with Carhartt. The collection launches this coming fall for F/W 2011 seasons and these looks give us a glimpse into what the duo will offer up for next spring. “The upcoming SS12 line plays mostly with black, beige and of course the signature blue tones of the New York designer. Made up of t-shirts, crewneck sweaters, jackets, blazers, as well as some mesh caps, it would not be a Kimmel collection without a couple of reversible pieces as well. ” (via highsnobiety)

Surely the highlight of this year’s Pitti Uomo, Scott Sternberg and Co. at Band of Outsiders really swung for the fences with their Spring/Summer 2012 presentation as they payed homage to West Side Story. The presentation was Broadway-esque with modern American clothing featured on models and real dancers. The gear itself looked amazing as well as we’ll be in for a treat come next spring. There’s plenty of lightweight cottons being utilized throughout the line and the outerwear and suiting are definitely atop the list of recipients.

This past weekend, I made my first trip out to Chicago and had the opportunity to take a few pieces from Lexdray‘s Classified Collection along for the ride. Two of the brand’s premier products — the Tahoe Duffel and Boulder Backpack — were my companions for the trip and I honestly don’t think I’d want it any other way. One of the first things that stood out to us when we got turned to Lexdray is the brand’s ability to make travel bags that are functional to the tenth degree and aesthetically pleasing as well.
