Friday the 13th: The New Black

January 12, 2012

What’s up with our superstitions? We have walking under ladders and the whole black cat thing. And then there’s Friday the 13th. No superstition gives us greater pause than our Friday the 13th thingamabob. We’re here to dispel the spell we’ve cast on ourselves regarding this.

Wrangler and Carhartt Clothing to Forget the Kilt

September 27, 2011

Around here, we’ve been wondering if men wear kilts to work in Scotland. It doesn’t exactly keep us awake at night, but we’re just curious.

In Like a Lion, and Out Like a Lamb, in Great Clothes

February 28, 2011
