New in The Shop.
S&S Pick of The Week.
The Real McCoy's C-1 Vest is the ultimate accessory, designed for one purpose and one purpose only: storage. Available in just a single size, the fit is adjusted with three HBT ties that secure that back, allowing this to be worn over (or under) an extremely wide range of different garments. It's cut from a cotton/rayon blend, a lightweight and durable weave, and trimmed with a total of sixteen pockets, each featuring a printed list of the items intended to be stored within. You'd be hard-pressed to find an item more beloved by our staff right now, as everyone seems to really be into both vests and pockets lately...

The Rise and Fall and Rise of The Chore Coat | Field Guide
The chore coat. One of the oldest pieces of workwear still in use today. But where did it come from and who made the first? As with a lot of workwear with such a long history, much of it is shrouded in mystery and in some cases, legend. We do know a few details, though, that it originated in France before being iterated on in the States where it would become part of the prison industrial complex uniform. It's now made it's way onto the backs of tech bros with companies like Palantir making their own branded version in an attempt to seem more salt of the earth. It's had an interesting rise and fall and rise again, but is still as much a staple piece as a black suit or leather jacket.

MotivMFG From Berkeley to New York | Meet & Greet
One of our favorite brands, MotivMFG, visited us in Berkeley and New York all the way from China a couple weeks ago for their 10-year anniversary and a made-to-order event! While they were here, we sat down with them to pick their brains about how the brand started, what the future holds, and that one time they crossed paths with Chinese police for making too good of a product.

Every single piece in their lineup features completely custom fabrics, leathers, trims, thread, and more, all re-engineered from archival and historical samples.
