SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY SHOPPING GUIDE- NORTH MENSWEAR

If there is one thing that I am a fan of, it is supporting local small businesses. Many of these small businesses are an essential part of the community. Along with that, they take the time to stop and get to know all of their customers. 

This Small Business Saturday, head on over and say hello to our good friends over at North Menswear. This holiday season, they have released a new sweater that you can pick up in-store and online. 

The sweatshirt is a heather grey Raglan Crewneck. 

Size in this sweatshirt range from Small- Extra Large and are priced at $80 USD. 

If you are looking for a sweatshirt to keep you warm this holiday season, you should most certainly head over and grab yourself one before they are all gone!

Akomplice Fall 2015

As part of their natural creative process, Mike and Patrick often travel to remote locations, where we find inspiration from life’s fundamental joys. For their Fall/Winter 2015 lookbook, they found just that in their  hometown of Paonia, Colorado. While visiting this fall, they crossed paths with their childhood friend and acclaimed photographer, Jessica Lehrman, who also grew up in Paonia. Together we decided that the serene, environmentally sustainable, and progressive setting of Paonia was the perfect match for our Fall/Winter 2015 Collections. Mike and Patrick found two dope musicians that worked at the local farm to table restaurant and embodied the Akomplice spirit to use as our models. We shot in the town’s streets, farms, mountains, and hemp fields, as this setting so clearly communicates the brand’s connection to nature, sustainability, simplicity and community. Mike and Patrick chose to photograph the Akomplice and VSOP lines together. They felt the louder more in-your-face Akomplice coupled with the minimalist style of VSOP represent the personality of Paonia - agrarian activism. Experienced together, the lines span the gamut and push the envelope in terms of fit and material selection. Their Fall and Winter collections are comprised of fishtail jackets, an array of button downs, staple elongated tees, hoodies, crews, a pocket knife, and even a Colorado inspired hockey jersey. The environmentally conscious setting of Paonia, Colorado is even more appropriate in light of our announcement that in Spring 2016 the majority of the VSOP collection will be made using organic cotton, recycled materials, and eco friendly dyes.This marks a monumental step forward for the brand and the industry. Look for their Fall VSOP collection to drop tomorrow, Thursday, October 29th at 2:09pm EST on the Akomplice webstore and keep it locked to their Twitter and Instagram for announcements on additional collection drops.
