A collaboration between The Hill-Side, a clothing and accessories brand founded in Brookyn, and Woorich, the Original Outdoor Clothing Company, has resulted in the must-have bags for fall.

The new lineup includes a daypack, tote bag, backpack, briefcase, and weekender bag—all built tough and ready to handle your active lifestyle.

Emil and Sandy Corsillo are the two brothers who founded Hill-Side in 2009. They said teaming their products with Woolrich is a good match because “Woolrich is synonymous with quality design and construction,” said Emil. He says New York City commuters inspired the new collection of bags.

“The toughest commuters in the world are found in New York,” he said. “When you’re commuting in the city, you need a bag that is versatile and tough; and all of your essentials need to integrate seamlessly and effortlessly.”

Of course, you don’t have to live in New York to appreciate the benefits of these bags. They are universal in appeal.

Here’s a quick look at the new products:

The Hill-Side for Woolrich Daypack, $95

Classic teardrop-shaped pack crafted out of a heavyweight polyester canvas. There’s an easy-access front-zippered pocket with a waterproof zipper. The handles and straps are made out of herringbone-weave nylon—strong and fray-resistant. The adjustable backpack straps allow for a comfortable fit. Plus, whatever you put inside will stay dry. The padded laptop sleeve can hold a laptop up to 13” or a tablet.

You’ll love the roominess of this bag. You can toss in your lunch and change of clothes, as well as securely store your laptop. It has the same durability of the daypack, but is larger with two-zipped interior back wall pockets, three interior neoprene slip pockets, and a full-width slip pocket with Velcro-tabbed closure.

The Hill-Side for Woolrich Backpack, $150

Omega Seamaster

James Bond has always been an icon of style and elegance. Thanks to his sophisticated taste and style, he’s inspired many brands over the years. Omega is one watch brand that has always been closely aligned with the iconic character. The latest James Bond himself, Daniel Craig, piqued interest at the Paris Olympics, when he was spotted rocking a new Omega model, a black-dialed stainless steel no-date Seamaster 300M.

Now, the wait is over: The watch has officially been rolled out, along with a brushed silver dial and bezel option.

All you need is a supportive family, or so you would think if you witnessed the rise of Robert Talbott, an American icon of menswear. In 1950, when Audrey started making one-of-a-kind bowties for her husband, Robert, in Carmel, California, the ties began to take off and sparked others to want the same stylish neckwear. What followed was a small sewing shop in their garage that grew to be a California-inspired staple in men's shirts and ties. Now, the brand is being rebranded with a new creative director. The Robert Talbott relaunch tapped former Eton shirts Creative Director Sebastian Dollinger to take the company forward.

CEO of Newtimes Brands, Alex Angelchik, who purchased Robert Talbott with the purpose of relaunching the brand spoke on the appointment. "Sebastian Dollinger’s visionary leadership perfectly aligns with our mission to redefine sophistication and style, emphasizing the brand’s commitment to men’s specialty stores and proudly upholding our California heritage."

PAKA redefines transparency in the manufacturing process
Know what your impact is with this alpaca fiber

Look, we get it. We all love a great sweater. Nothing beats throwing on your favorite sweater when the fall hits, feeling the crisp air hit every spot of exposed skin, and experiencing the simultaneous protection your best knitwear provides. There is also a deep love for the soft, breathable, luxurious, and incredibly warm alpaca fiber that makes up your favorite sweater. Back up, if you don't know what we are talking about, then stop what you are doing and treat yourself to a quality alpaca sweater. For those of you already in the know, you have a PAKA sweater, hoodie, crew, socks, or hat that you are already wearing (probably at the moment you read this because it is never far away). If you are, look under the bottom hem, there you will find the name of the person that made the sweater handwritten in. While this is one of our favorite features of a PAKA sweater, the company is going even further into the transparency of its operation with PAKA Traceable Alpaca.
Trace your alpaca back to the source

When you buy a sweater from PAKA, you get more than a high-quality shirt that will last; you get the product of thousands of years of culture, knowledge, and craftsmanship. Living in the Andes Mountains for as long as people have populated the area, PAKA employs these creators to make every piece on its shelves. Thanks to a provided QR code, you can now trace exactly where your item came from. Just scan it and sit back, learning the process and origins of your favorite sweater.
