Off the Hanger: Magnum P.I.
The fashion industry’s newfound love for all things Hawaiian shirts got me thinking about the master of that genre, Magnum. I also found this site that is basically the Magnum style bible. Sure, there were some definite styling faux pas in the series but overall the character had great classic looks. Rugbys, 501s, Outdoorsman specs, [...]

Off the Hanger: Spring Fishing
With any luck the weather will take a turn for the better and we’ll be able to hit the streams soon enough. The bro-in-law is getting geared up (opted for the Scott over the Winston, atta boy) so I thought I’d take stock of my kit for possible upgrades.
Hat – Filson (good warm/cool option [...]

Off the Hanger: Skate Ski
Maybe it’s the Olympic spirit that has motivated me but we’ve managed to get out a few times this winter to hit up the fantastic trails just north of us for a few skate sessions. This time of year usually lends itself to good snow so hopefully there will be a few more trips (as [...]

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 [...]

Off the Hanger: Gump
Really solid styling in this movie. Re-watch just for the consistent look Forrest keeps from leg brace days to telling bench stories. Also reminded me of the amount of CG work that was added to the film (looks dated now) but I think blazed the trail of thinking for its integration into all genres.

Off the Hanger: Bike to the Film Fest
Heads or Tails {Trailer} from Mad Phil Media on Vimeo.
“Rise” Trailer from Costa Sunglasses on Vimeo.
Couple of selections from the upcoming Film Tour I’ll be hitting up next week in Fort Collins. Very Warren Miller in fishing form (I could stand to hear a little less metal in the soundtracks) but overall, really nice filmmaking [...]

Off the Hanger: Pond Hockey
Somehow I got roped into an upcoming 3 day marathon pond hockey tournament, so its time to get on the ice. Luckily it has been colder than hell so the ponds are in good shape for weekend pickups. I’ll probably go full gear when the time comes but the weekenders are a little more [...]

Off the Hanger: Gaucho
Somehow I need to translate bits and pieces of this look into my every day kit. I’m always up for any sort of cowboy influence and I think the Gaucho look is probably about as honed as it gets. Belts on belts on belts, scarves on ponchos and most importantly, lots of big knives. [...]
