These pieces come to you by way of the always fashion-forward Blackbird.

Acne Jeans

$519.00 $298.99 USD

Acne Jeans is a go-to brand for unique shoes, but beware…if you like a style, buy it now.  It is rare that styles are repeated in future collections.

Patent leather and nylon oxford dress shoe. An upbeat update to a very classic gentlemen’s shoe. The almost ribbon like laces and pull at the heel add to the playfulness of the shoe. Black leather soles.

Coming Soon by Yohji Yamamoto

$752.00 $451.99 USD

Anoraks are not aesthetically pleasing in the traditional sense, but they are a must-have for rainy weather.  So, how do you make an anorak work for you?  Avoid a fitted anorak…a little big is okay.  Fit the rest of your look with a slim silhouette for a great balance.

Nylon coated cotton, fishtail mod’s coat with hood. Adjustable interior drawstrings at waistband, hood and hem. Jacket closes with a two-way zipper and snaps on placket. Front flap pockets with snap closure at waist. Single welted vertical pocket at right chest. Partially cotton lined interior with taped seams. Single interior pocket at left chest. 70% Cotton, 21% acrylic, 9% polyurethane.

Schmoove

$161.00 $128.99 USD

If you are like me and not a sneaker type of guy, shoes styled like this are perfect for casual or business.

Casual suede dress shoe with a very low profile rubber sole.

Opening Ceremony

$180.00 $108.99 USD

This vest is one of the pieces posted when it first arrived at Blackbird.  It has a great shape, will add punch to any outfit, and is a steal at a discounted price.

Knit sweater vest with three buttons at waist for closure and one at chest height additional coverage. Wide ribbing along waist band. 60% super-soft wool, 20% nylon, 20% acrylic. Made in China.

Diet Butcher Slim Skin

$500.00 $298.99 USD

Everyone should treat themselves to a nice quality shirt every once in a while and this shirt by Diet Butcher Slim Skin fits the bill.

Super soft 3/4 layer t-shirt. Outer layer is hand batik dyed. Single layer sleeves. 100% cotton outer layer. 55% linen, 35% cotton, 10% silk inner layer. Made in Japan.

Opening Ceremony

$588.00 $298.99 USD

Opening Ceremony is always pulling out all the stops to present consumers with pieces they can not find anywhere else.  What appears to be a simple coat is not.  Unbutton the coat and flip it inside out to find yourself with a white coat.  Nifty…eh?

Wool/twill reversible single breasted over coat. One side is a woolly Glen Plaid from the Woolrich Woolenmills. Reversed side is an off white twill. Both sides have two single-welt angled pockets at waist. 97% cotton 3% elastaine, 100% wool. Made in the U.S.A.
