COUNTRY HOUSE - AUTHENTIC BLUE

One of my favorite stores in The Netherlands is Country House.

I already posted several times some pictures of this Authentic Blue store, which is since 1981 the local hero of Rotterdam with brands like CP Company, Woolwich, Pike Brothers, Red Wing, Filson, Armor Lux, PRPS etc. Yep indeed a guys paradise. The store is located in one of the nicest streets of Rotterdam called the Meent, surrounded by specialty stores and nice restaurants. This time I wanted to show you with how many love the and eye for detail the store is decorated. So whenever you touch the grounds of Rotterdam make sure you pay Harry & Ronald a visit.

FILSON OUTFITTERS FOR THE EAST

Okay, I admit I'm a sucker for Filson!

On my last day in New York I just had one mission, buy a Mackinaw Wool vest in the red & black plaid. The best place to do so is the rather fresh opened outpost of Filson in New York on 40 Great Jones Street. The store is packed with the brands signature luggage and outerwear as well as its new collection of Magnum camera bags. I really loved the bag wall which is made of reclaimed wood from the Williamsburg Domino Sugar factory.

ATELIER DE L’ARMEE SERIES - FALL/WINTER 14

The driving force behind Atelier de l'Armée Elza & Joost set the next step and created

Atelier de l’Armée Series.

The first Series collection F/W14 is made for the every day city cyclist, the outdoorsman and the ad- venture seeker who likes to travel in style. Prepared for the unpredictable weather changes, the Series collection uses a lot of water repellent military can- vasses and dead stock cordura fabrics. To support the local community this season’s collection is manufactured in a small factory in the Netherlands.
