I am not talking about the workwear brand. Not the clock tower bell either, although Ben Phillips is from the UK. He made a special trip to see us and we thought our meeting deserves recounting.

Even French press coffee aficionados and Bodum coffee gadget obsessives may not have heard of the elegant Chemex coffee maker. For its wonderful brew it is possibly the most underappreciated coffee maker on the market (well, at least it is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art and the Smithsonian). And at [...]

December 5, 2009
We caught up with JP Plunier, music producer extraordinaire and founder of the Feal Mor clothing line. He was wearing his 1-of-20 Visvim Patton Hoodie leather jacket, Rising Sun Workers, and boots that look like they should be in a Sergio Leone spaghetti western. He was nice enough to let us snap some pics to [...]
