    The Corso Jacket: Mid-Century Style, Made in Los Angeles

    I appreciate that! Man, I had people straight up emailing me and saying "I like that jacket, but I refuse to be Lenny." I guess it's possible that these guys weren't the best reference point for a cool jacket...

    The Corso Jacket: Mid-Century Style, Made in Los Angeles

    I mostly took the name from Corso Como in Milan. It's a big pedestrian street with stores, cafes, and night spots. Coming up with names for clothing models, individual fits, and colors is a big part of this job. I think that "Corso" is pretty good - as it's short, easy to say, easy to spell...

    Contuning with unrelated pop-culture posts, today is the 38th Anniversary of "Heavy Metal Parking Lot." It's a short documentary shot in 1986 outside of a Judas Priest show in Maryland. It's an amazing snapshot of that time. Also as the parent of a soon-to-be teenager, I'm grateful that 15yo's...

    Official Rochester Tailored Clothing (formerly Hickey Freeman) Thread

    I received an absolutely beautiful suit makeup in our Pendleton Mid-Century navy wool. This is the Nuovo sportcoat, done with open patch hip pockets. We made a matching plain front trouser with it. This wool is amazing. It's woven in Oregon, and a deadstock product that's a bit over a decade...

    The Corso Jacket: Mid-Century Style, Made in Los Angeles

    Hey guys! I'm a long-time affiliate on the SW&D side. All of my clothing is made in the United States, with quite a bit of it produced in Los Angeles. I designed the "Corso" jacket earlier this year, and ran a preorder project for it. This was quickly our best-selling project of 2024, and I'm...

    Our Best Jacket Design in Years Inspired by Dickie Greenleaf. The Corso is an elegant casual jacket with a mid-century vibe. Inspired by Dickie Greenleaf in The Talented Mr. Ripley, it's a brilliant match to dress trousers, casual chinos, and lightweight denim. This piece effortlessly splits...

    Yeah he goes off on a lot of tangents... there's also some totally unrelated guests who's only connection is the general timeline. But he gets to the meat and potatoes in the middle episodes.

    They mention that in the podcast!!! Spoiler alert: I fear that you'll be waiting another 30 years for that.

    Absolutely yeah, and they go into all of that. Bivens was only 22 at the time and all sorts of his plans were dashed. Sudden Impact was definitely his way to get back at Maurice Starr for stealing their money and capitalizing on New Kids on the Block.

    SAME! It's such a funny perspective on the monoculture of the time. If you were a certain age in 1991, then you were probably watching MTV and you were probably seeing that video. And since every other act was accounted for, you were left wondering what happened to the white guys who looked...

    Hey guys! Three quick things: 1) The Corso jackets are even better than I had anticipated. They are GORGEOUS! There's very little open stock in the preorder fabrics, but I brought in a few new stock fabrics to launch. I'll need a little more time, but they should go online early tomorrow...

    A huge thanks to everyone who preordered the Corso jacket! It's one of the best pieces that we've ever offered, and I'm super excited for it. We do a ton of outerwear, and I think that there was a real need for something lined and elegant. These are going to be absolutely beautiful. They're...
