Taste of the Nation

The Taste of the Nation event at the Tobacco Warehouse was a wonderful event. For everyone that missed it come next year. It's a beautiful setting, with great food, a
fashion show and a great time for all.


"Most of the fun transpired in the huge, main area, where a catwalk was erected centerstage. Midway through the evening, bootylicious models shook their bods in fashions by Big Girls United, designed for "thick and sexy ladies." Brooklyn Industries (with several locations in the borough, and two Fifth Avenue shops in Park Slope), Razor for men, and Serene Rose (who supplied garments by Shawn Christopher Kelley's "Christopher" label) contributed outfits for the runway."

Bigger sized shirts

As promised we've found several designers who design for bigger sized men. We have t-shirts, polo shirts and button-down shirts. We have from plain to ... not so plain. :-)

The Buckler's are in.

We have three lines of Buckler, a light wash, a dark wash and one with a brown, tanin wash. The light denim has some of the best baked in creases I've seen or felt and only slightly distressed. The dark wash has these big stitches along the top part of the side seams. The stitching is discreet enought to wear the denim to work. The denim with the brown wash is a beautiful pair of denim; great wash, slightly distressed, with great fit.

Antik and Tavartini Denim

We've reordered Antiks and should have 6 new styles fairly soon. We're also adding Tavartini denim to our collection. The Tavartini's will be the first of our raw denim styles.

1921s and Buffalos have come in

We have 3 new styles of 1921s in -- and a fourth, the one with the big stiching -- is coming soon. We ordered up to a size 38.

We also have a few new styles of Buffalos. I love the washes, perfect for the summer.

We don't have any narrow-legged denim yet (except, of course, for those Yanuks) but we should be getting our Bucklers by the end of the month and at least two styles will be narrow-legged.

T-shirts and polo shirts galore

We just got in a crazy amount of new t-shirts and polo shirts from 3rd Born, division E, vintage red, KRZNA, and revolution. Along with our existing styles from Buffalo, French Connection, and all the smaller designers we have a fair collection of styles. Most of the collection is designed with the slimmer individual in mind but some such as KRZNA (pronounced Krishna) are designed for larger framed men.

We're constantly looking for styles for the bigger guys. We will find Razor quality designs for you too.

Belt Buckles

We've received a lot of new belts and belt buckles over the last couple of days, (Bill Adler Design and Brave Leather). Also, for those who've been waiting for the size 36 and 38 brown "loop" belts -- they've finally arrived.
