We’ve been keeping an eye on Woodies Clothing since they took the custom shirt world by storm—they were fully funded within seven hours of launching on Kickstarter in April 2014 and followed up with a second campaign in July 2015. 

They’re back on the scene with a new offering—custom chinos. This time full funding of $15,000 on Kickstarter came in within THREE HOURS! So far it’s brought in more than $57,000 and counting. With the campaign still running, there’s time for you to cash in on their incentives.

I caught up with founder Jacob Wood to find out the inspiration behind this new offering.

“As a founder, I’ve always been interested in what my customers say and what their feedback is,” he said. About a year ago he sent out a survey to gauge interest in the next great product. He asked about custom blazers, ties, suits and chinos and received an enthusiastic response for the chinos.

woodies perfect chinos“Probably 80% opt for our 3D measuring,” he said. “Just plug in height, weight, average shirt size, and the size of pants you typically wear and from that we can calculate all your measurements.”

Woodies currently offers a choice of eight fabrics in a range of colors. Plus, you can choose your back pockets, pleats, cuff hem or plain hem. The regular price is $125.

We love the great guarantee that comes with these pants. Wood promises the fit will be perfect. If you think it needs adjustment, he asks that you take the pants to your local Salvation Army and Woodies will send you a complimentary remake.

Wood is confident, though, that you’ll love them from the moment you put them on. “They’re the best pants ever.”

Authentic Roz explores the human experience in New York Fashion Week debut
Finding the balance between fitting in and standing out with Authentic Roz

Walking through New York Fashion Week presentations and showrooms, you start to get a feel of what most brands and designers are used to working with. There are hot buzzwords. Inspiration and creativity seem to be center stage in most runway shows and showrooms. However, as I made my way up North from Madison Square Park to The Prince George Ballroom in the Flatiron District, I found myself in a different sort of environment, the kind where the designer of the collection about to walk down the runway also served as the DJ. From the clothes to the tunes to the ideology, Rayan Alami had a hand in every aspect of his New York Fashion Week debut. After seeing designer after designer with the same philosophies throughout New York, Alami embodied the name of his debut collection at Fashion Week, "I am Different."
Using music and culture to blend a unique style

New York Fashion Week is essentially an opportunity to blend art and fashion into one and tell a story through sartorial expression. While designers find inspiration in all walks of life, Alami uses his multicultured heritage and his love of music to blend a style truly unique in the industry. When I sat down with him after his show, I asked how he brought culture to his work.

A new bronze Norqain watch
Norqain LE Freedom 60 GMT Bronze

Norqain emerged onto the watch scene in 2018, and has offered stylish timepieces like the Freedom 60 GMT collection. Every single timepiece that’s featured in the collection has a retro-like aesthetic that will take you back to the ‘60s. Now, though, there's a new offering: the Norqain Freedom 60 GMT 40mm Limited Edition.

The new Freedom GMT watch comes with a bronze dial that stands out thanks to the brown hue. And one of the most striking features is the 100m water-resistant brown casing, which is accentuated by a satin finish that makes the surface look a little bit shiny. Hour markers also have a bronze-like hue that complements the casing.

G-shock MRGB2100R-2A

A new G-Shock watch that explores different Japanese concepts, from zen philosophies to ancient woodworking techniques, has been unveiled: the MRG-B2100R-2A, part of the high-end MR-G series.

For starters, it is based on an ancient Zen ideology centered around self-reflection. The good thing about this new watch is that it explores different Japanese notions. The second notion, Kigumi, goes back to the 6th century and has been passed down over the years. It is a beautiful woodworking craft that creates beautiful patterns.
