Releases and Collaborations from Freenote Cloth, Iron Heart, Gitman Vintage, and Benzak
This week, we have inspirations from the past modernized through design, fit, fabrications, and productions to freshly illustrate the classics. From Freenote Cloth and Iron Heart, antique western and workwear is expressed in pieces with over-the-top construction and proprietary Japanese materials. With Gitman Vintage, we have our seasons’ exclusive shirting configurations and fabrics loomed to textured pattern perfection in Japan. Completing the ensemble, Benzak’s famed Chinos have been advanced for a standard day-to-night casual menswear uniform option. Staples for the wardrobe should still be remarkable and exciting to wear, and this assembly perfectly balances versatility and distinctiveness.
Freenote Cloth
From our friends in Southern California putting a modern twist on western and workwear originals, we have a release ready for the ranch, campsite, or factory floor. Freenote Cloth again shows its excellence in specialized, garment-specific sourcing of fabrics and trims, paired with considered detailing and design elements. Proving their fresh perspective on heritage, we give you the Brown x Black Denim Faro Jacket and the Benson, Jepson, and Lambert shirts in specialty fabrics; all complemented with the Modesto Straight in Kaihara Selvedge Denim and Deck Pant in the 14 oz. Military Canvas. This exceptional collection using all proprietary and exclusive materials gives good cause to grab new classics for inspired fits.
Iron Heart
To get your 888 High Rise Classic Tapered for fall, we have a restock on the two mid-weight Iron Heart propriety signature denims, including our favorite drape and duty-heavy Slubby 16 oz. Selvedge. Then, we bring you two limited seasonal shirting releases for wardrobe treasures that provide base layers for overshirt craft comfort through this season and beyond. The 21 oz. Indigo Sashiko Work Shirt is made in a hyper rare and heavyweight jacquard woven cloth with dimensional texture, deep fading potential, and dutiful four-way flexibility that will masterfully conform to the body. The Orange 12 oz. Slubby Ultra Heavy Flannel Check Western kicks off fall with an appropriate vintage truck-stop meets hookah lounge palette and far-out texture.
Gitman Vintage x DR | Benzak
Right in time for the cooler weather, we bring exclusive flannel-esque fabrications paired with our body, collar, and pocket configurations for some collectible Gitman Vintage collaborations that will slide into immediate and regular rotation. The new Japanese Slubbed Twill comes in two exclusive colorways in our double-pleated back, dual pocketed front, and hidden button-down collar Camper shirt. Two Japanese Cotton Tweeds come in a new Glen Plaid pattern with versatile palettes for a vintage vibe with texture and tone. It’s hard to improve on perfection, but leave it to Benzak to evolve its famed Chino production with even more saturated colors on the 10 oz. Military Reverse Satin Canvas. A factory wash gives this heavyweight fabric more flexibility out of the box while leaving deep color and allowing personal evolutions to the wearer. The Golden Brown BC-03 Straight and Army Green BC-01 Tapered Chinos are here, improved, and ready to wear for that go-to trouser with a denim-head build.
