Collaborations and Releases with White’s, The Quartermaster, Momotaro, and Benzak

This week, we have a tight curation of dutiful workwear-inspired goods with a modern approach for those looking to embrace the classics with a fresh lens. The LTT Oxford 300 collaboration with White’s returns in Burgundy CXL paired with a new Black CXL version. The Quartermaster brings us two style pieces with workshop utility. From Momotaro we have a restock on the 14.7 oz. Legacy Denim and a newly refined 8 oz. Work Shirt and two of our most popular Benzak garments are back in full-stock glory. These no-fail and non-costume craft additions are designed to seamlessly coordinate with any contemporary ensemble, from the workshop to the wine bar.

Our favorite shoe-boot is back with the Lace-to-Toe Oxford 300 collaboration with White’s. A proven configuration of Horween’s Chromexcel with a natural “tea” core is coordinated with contrasting khaki-tan upper stitching and brass eyelets that pair to a Natural CXL hand-welt, natural leather midsole, and sand-colored 2060 sole. Coming on the 55 Last — enhanced with a Lineman patch and all the DR tricks — we bring you the Burgundy CXL and a new Black CXL version for sturdy strides in summer through fall.

The Quartermaster completes the season with more year-round staples in two updated reproductions designed for the enthusiast, menswear styler, or minimalist alike. Inspired by a mid-century garage blouson, the Navy Herringbone Twill Italian Work Jacket is a brilliant iteration with a classic-meets-contemporary cut and detailing. The Fatigue Trouser comes in a highly sought-after tapered straight fit in an Olive Military Sateen replicant of vintage militaria with new refinements and fresh appeal.

Momotaro brings some mid-weight denim that’s good for summer and well beyond in the classic relaxed tapered 0605 and comfortable slim-meets-skinny 0306 fits. The 14.7 oz. Legacy Denim is loomed at medium tension for immediate comfort and comes with a medium blue rope-dyed warp and grey-cast weft to reflect archived originals. The new MXLS1020 8 oz. Deep Indigo Selvedge Denim Work Shirt has a modern persona and clean tonal detailing for a staple, heritage-inspired piece. 

Benzak brings back two of their most popular core items using specialty Collect Mill fabrics crafted with precision and care. The Relaxed Tapered 710N comes in a factory-washed low-tension denim that perfectly presents a casual drape and comfort great for warm days and long nights. The Black Herringbone Twill BWS-02 Utility Shirt has workman detailing with brown tonal stitching on this warm black military-inspired fabric, perfect for all seasons and conditions.
