For quite some time, our go to fleece has been a classic Patagonia, and while our favorite Snap-T will always be a mainstay, it looks like it’s going to get a bit of a break this year.  See, we were recently turned on to a company out in Colorado who is turning out some fantastic fleeces of their own, and we’re really looking forward to giving one a shot.  From Topo Designs comes the aptly named Fleece Jacket.

As much as we love quilted jackets, there is still one that trumps them all for us, the Barbour Liddesdale.  It’s a classic that will never be out of style, and something you can throw on over just about everything.  The one complaint we’ve seen from time to time about the Liddesdale is that it’s simply too boxy.  If you agree, you’re going to want to check out the Heritage Liddesdale ASAP.

It’s no secret that if you’re looking for embroidered cords your first stop should be Castaway.  Their selection is truly unparalleled, and if they don’t make what you’re looking for there’s a high probability that it simply doesn’t exist.  Today’s Offered for Discussion topic is a pair of their Turkey Hunt Cords.  Adorned with Pilgrim Hats, Rifles, and, of course, Turkeys, are they the perfect pick for dinner tomorrow?

We do our best to keep from featuring items from the same brand within a few weeks of each other, but man, sometimes things come out that we just can’t resist.  Two weeks ago we talked about our friends down at Criquet releasing some great new pique polos.  Well,  they’ve also expanded their collection to include some great looking sweaters.  Our favorite is the Cotton/Cashmere Crewneck.

Whether your Thanksgiving plans include getting dressed to the nines for a feast of epic proportions, or just something low key that will probably end with you half asleep watching a football game, a great looking bow tie is never a bad pick for the dinner table. We prefer something a bit more low key than dancing turkeys, and this year our pick is a bow that will certainly fit in well with a number of crisp Fall looks.  It’s the Crawford Herringbone Bow from High Cotton Ties.
