I don't know why I like Vita Morte. I just do.

[ Vita Morte signature sweatshirt - $59.99 ] Truth be told I know NOTHING about Vita Morte other than they rep the Chi [ ed. note - "...a city with hella haters..." (c) Kanye West ]. I follow one of the guys that runs the brand and he seems like an alright dude but that’s pretty much...

The Seersuckered Hypebeast defined. Sorta.

First I just want to take the time to thank everyone that has ever read this blog or the mess of a blog I had before. Thank you for all the comments, emails, Facebooking, MySpacing, tweets, and retweets because collectively they’ve helped me define a set path for The Brown Derby Haberdashery and now the H1GHER LEARNING...

Put your stunna shades on.

[ Super leather Flat-top - $old Out ] I swear if A) I had a tab bit more disposable income, B) my head wasn’t the size of a regulation basketball, and C) I wasn’t too scary to at least invest in contact lenses then I would already have multiple pairs of shades in my repertoire...

II good to be true.

[ OG Nike Air Jordan II - part of National Gallery of Victoria's Sneakers: Classics to Customs exhibition ] Nike is making my sneaker dreams come true this year. First the Copper Foamposite Ones next month, then the Eggplants in March and now THIS! I’m sure if I was an active member of ISS or NikeTalk I would have already...

The List: Third time is the charm.

You would not believe the trouble I went through to get these Bean boots marked off THE LIST and on to my friggin’ feet. First my girlfriend ordered me a pair for Christmas in November of last year, then she gets an email stating that the boots I wanted were on back order until early February. So...

I get by with a little help from Amongst Friends.

  [ Amongst Friends hook belt - $42.99 ] You know me, just making my rounds and I decided to stop by the website of a brand I respect and admire 110%, Amongst Friends. Everything on the site is so clean and proper. This is how streetwear meets menswear is supposed to look. I can’t wait...

I gotta fever and the only prescription is more Carhartt.

[ Carhartt flame resistant midweight canvas quilt lined Dearborn Jacket - $175 ] I was sorta complaining earlier today about the Carhartt heat the we American’s aren’t privy to but truth is I never really gave Carhartt a chance. Especially with the whole heritage/Americana movement that is currently taking place I figured it was at least worth a shot to see what they have to offer...

Oh snap: Nike strikes again.

This is another cleaver marketing ploy by Nike, I’m sure. This is similar to the Nike “Worth every Penny” tee that I gushed over in that without the shoes this crewneck sweatshirt is pretty much useless. But it’s still dope, no? Even if I get the Copper Foamposite Ones I doubt I’ll get this though. It’s...
