BONCOURA DUCK HUNTER CAMO PAINTER SHORTS
There is a lot to say about Boncoura’s new Duck Hunter Camo shorts; a reinterpretation of the quintessential American work pant, transformed into shorts and enhanced by the use of Duck Hunter Camo fabric.
These shorts are made from a thick herringbone fabric that is specially printed with Duck Hunter Camo on both sides, offering different colors on each side. Designed with deep hand pockets for practicality, the coin pocket is slightly shallower than its vintage counterparts to enhance accessibility, while the side pockets are thoughtfully sized to accommodate items like an iPhone and vary in size from left to right for added functionality.
True to their work pants heritage, the shorts include a wrench loop for those employed at OK House Building Services. The sides are reinforced with triple stitching using a vintage sewing machine, ensuring durability, while the thick belt loops add strength. The top button features an original lacquered laurel wreath design typical of wartime buttons. The zipper with a BONCOURA original logo is like vintage cotton zipper tapes, and the right side of the back patch pocket displays the BONCOURA name on a woven patch. Reinforcement below the back pockets is achieved by applying an additional layer of fabric on the inside, doubling up the material for increased strength. Truly a pair of very well thought out shorts.

NEW SAMURAI SUMMER COLLECTION
The new S0520XX jean is Samurai's newest iteration of a classic straight leg jean with a medium rise and a tapered leg. These are made of their custom 15oz "Otokogi" denim made of a 100% Texas cotton fiber with tightly twisted slub yarns for an amazing texture and a unique aging potential.
Samurai hits us with one of the best looking work shirts we’ve seen in some time. The contrast triple-chainstitch construction really does it for us and the nice engraved nut buttons over the sulfur-dyed herringbone fabric look great.
Samurai’s Baker Pants are finally back in stock; we’ve had three small runs of these at our stores and they disappeared quickly. We’ve had Samurai make us a new batch and they now come with a very fancy sparkly selvedge ID. These “baker” pants are made of a unique 15oz fabric developed by Samurai that has a nice deep olive color and has some great textural qualities we've not seen before in any fabric before.

CRISTINA SPIRIDAKIS, COSTUME DESIGNER FROM THE BEAR
We caught up with Cristina Spiridakis in Athens, Greece. Cristina is the costume designer who purchased white t-shirts from Self Edge 3 years ago and put Carmy (aka, Jeremy Allen White) from The Bear in them for the pilot episode, three seasons in and Carmy is still wearing the same t-shirts in every episode. Not just any plain white t-shirt, one that created such an internet frenzy that we believe it changed the public perception of a white t-shirt for the first time since Marlon Brando wore one in A Streetcar Named Desire in 1951. Cristina’s t-shirt choice created years of endless “What t-shirt is Carmy wearing in The Bear?” news articles, hundreds of memes, online searches for the tee across reddit/forums/discords, a wild sales boom for nearly all high-end blank white t-shirts, endless brands cashed in by using Carmy’s image to sell white tees, and lastly, a newfound mainstream respect for a blank white t-shirt. The humble white t-shirt thanks you Cristina.
For those who were unaware of all this until now.. Carmy from The Bear wears a Merz B. Schwanen 215 loopwheeled t-shirt and a Whitesville Japanese t-shirt from their 2-pack series. Other characters in The Bear may or may not be seen wearing Strike Gold t-shirts.

@kiya Saw an interview with Jeremy Allan White where he was asked about the t-shirt that he wears,and while he didn’t mention any brand names he did say that all his shirts had been tailored to fit him.
Yup, they were all hemmed between 1cm and 3cm in length and one of the tees the sleeves were tightened very slightly.
