Terrapin Stationers

“At one time, in one building in downtown Manhattan, there were probably twenty-five engravers,” says Ted Harrington of Terrapin Stationers & Engraving Co.. “Now there’s two left making engraved dies in all of Manhattan—my dad and his best friend. Most of the shops either closed down or moved out of town—outside of Manhattan.” READ MORE

The Good Kind of Pitti Party

Menswear enthusiasts get three Christmases each year. The traditional and festive Christian celebration at the end of December, in addition to two different three-day gatherings of thousands of menswear brands in the birthplace of sophisticated dressing: Florence, Italy. The trade show is aptly named Pitti Uomo. The most recent convention-like festival took place from January 10-13, showcasing 1,073 menswear brands from around the world at Florence’s famed Fortezza da Basso. The trade show was created in the 1970s to promote different menswear labels and allow for new brands to be premiered for the thousands of department stores and boutique buyers, along with editors from all of the great men’s magazines.

Dehen 1920 at Haberdash EDC

The history of Dehen is just intriguing enough to seem fictional—an immigration story, followed by liquor smuggling, jail time, girlfriend stealing, and (finally) settling down in Portland to get to work. “We all grew up with the family legends,” says Mike Dehen (grandson of the founder) in this Portland Monthly article, “In retrospect, there was probably fuzzy gloss on some of them.” READ MORE

Ernest Wilkins Goes to Haberdash

Ernest Wilkins and photographer Lenny Gilmore stopped by the store last week to keep the November of Dressing Nicely (NoDN for short) moving. What is NoDN? It began with a very well-dressed gentleman coming in from LA, as detailed here, which led to the conclusion that, “Guys in Chicago usually don’t care what they look like.” And so, for a whole month last year (and during the month of November this year), a collection of guys—including their well-dressed leader, Ernest Wilkins—are pulling out all the stops when it comes to getting dressed each day. You can see the chronicle of NoDN guys here, then scroll down and check out the shots that Ernest (and photographer Lenny Gilmore) got of Zach, below. Great working with you guys!
