For most of use, when we go searching for items such as carrying cases, straps and various items for our cameras, we are bombarded with the same lame, nylon, cheap shit that you can probably find in Walmart or your local Shell Gas station. Having spent so much on a camera, I for one, would be more then willing to shell out a couple more bills for quality accessories. While this market is ever growing, it is still a small one, but Leather Factory Roberu is putting its best efforts into catering to camera owners such as myself. For their Winter 09 line of camera goods, they have created several items using using natural materials, such as dyed leather and silk, giving each item an authentic look and feel and probably turning a few heads in the process. Roberu’s full winter line of carrying cases, camera straps and holder for the small form factor camera, are currently available at their online store and other select retailers.
I don’t know how things like this happen, but I must admit, today was my first time stopping by the flagship shop for Brooklyn Circus. Its particularly maddening because I’m usually just around the corner on Post street every couple weekends. That being said, I did mentally kick myself in the ass a little bit after finally stepping foot in. Upon entering, the shop reminds you of an era when guys dressed to the nines on the regular, and could beat the piss outta you without breaking a sweat. Its something that you really need to experience to understand.
With an excellent atmosphere to the shop, top notch customer service and the threads to match, this is high on my list of shops you need to visit. Pictures from my Trip to the San francisco shop after the jump.
Last week GOLD COIN began unleashing their winter line-up to fans of the SF based clothing line. First drop was their winter tees, and then shortly followed by The Flannelz…
The Flannelz come in 4 different styles. All 4 styles include double breasted pockets and double button sleeve cuffs. Each one is hand made in San Francisco with extreme detail in mind. The fitted cut is slim enough for layering up yet still loose enough to wear over your favorite t-shirt. A perfect fit.
When I say these shirts are hot, I kid you not. If I had the scratch, I would have one of each as we speak. If you find yourself feeling the same about The Flannelz, I would advise you stop over at the GOLD COIN online shop and pick one or two up quickly. The drop is a pretty limited run, as there are only 15 of each style available. I look forward to the next pieces of the GOLD COIN winter collection, and will keep you guys up to date as info comes.
