On the Road: Sayulita
One half of MAWOI has been on the road, driving and camping his way, from Colorado to Sayulita and back for the past few weeks. He’s been keeping me abreast of all developments. Cop bribe? Check.

Off the Hanger: Tipi Camping

Off the Hanger: DoubleButter by Day
We bat the fashion ball back and forth with quite a few folks but the the boys at DoubleButter have to be the most vociferous about their stance. More than anyone we know, they stand by their uniform and are pretty relentless implementing it every day. They sent us some pics (damn fine pics) [...]

Off the Hanger: Hill Street Blues
Pretty revolutionary show for its day and the styling of Bruce Weitz character on Hill Street Blues set the stage for the plain clothes hardcore TV cop image.
Sweatshirt – Warehouse
Hat – USN black wool watch cap
Canvas Gloves – White Ox elastic band chopped off of course
Belt – 1 3/4” to hold that holster, nice hangin [...]
