A newer arrival to the Tissot T-Classic lineup. A cleaner, more minimalistic version of the PRC-200 day/date
The heck is “Transcript”? A new Nordstrom house brand? Guessing it’s not, being that these shoes come in European sizes. But they also come with a more European silhouette. Many a summer buck can look clunky. These look much slimmer. Nice to see some cool greys worked in there among the usual earth tones and navy. Some guys hate tassel loafers. Others might take a pair for a spin this year since they look a little more elegant than a standard penny. Ships and returns free through Nordstrom.
Available for purchase tomorrow, and you should be able to stream it on NPR’s site here. Movie hits theaters Friday. The expectations are so high for the film that it’s almost (almost) destined to disappoint. Here’s to hoping it lives up to the soundtrack. Advanced listens/releases are incredible. Highlights: “$100 Bill” by Jay-Z, Beyonce + Andre 3000 on “Back to Black” (the song at the start of the 3rd trailer), the agonizingly vulnerable, almost to the point of being pathetic, “Over the Love” from Florence Welch, and the late night fog that is “Together” from the XX. There are plenty of up-beat interludes that sample early 20th-century standards (will.i.am + The Charleston + someone that sounds like Britney Spears?). But the songs that resonate are a slow-death, violent kind of sexy. Full review soon.
Meanwhile, in fall suede footwear… Almost a poor man’s version of these. Quality won’t be half bad either. The Mr. B’s page claims all of their shoes are made in Europe, and these sure look like they’ve got a true welt on em’. Going to be too hot to wear them for awhile, but a hundred bucks?
And not just the cufflinks, but engraved with that specific Gotham-font shown above (and in their catalog over here). But that font doesn’t appear to be available when you jump to their engraving options on the product page. Might take a call to customer service to see what’s up. Art Deco for your wrists. Last cufflinks you’ll ever buy or have purchased for you.
