Seeing as we have a lot of really beautiful knits for this season I thought it was more than appropriate to share this thoughtful/helpful info with you guys as well. Top tips for a happy jumper with a long life… 1. Try not to hang your knitwear - wherever possible fold your knitwear.  Hanging the knit can cause the jumper to drop and the sleeves to grow - this is particularly key with heavy knits. 2. When handwashing your knits use lukewarm water with a dedicated delicates handwash detergent.  make sure you rinse the detergent thoroughly, squeeze as much of the water out as possible and then re-shape to dry.  It’s best to hang your knits flat on a clothes horse or a towel and make sure no sleeves are dangling off as these will grow! 3. Storing your knitwear - there has been an epidemic in clothes moths this winter due to our warmer weather and good old central heating.  To avoid the dreaded moth-hole we recommend that you invest in some cedar balls and lavender bags to keep alongside your knitwear and also wool coats. 2011-10-25T21:17:24-08:00 http://www.outlooksformen.com/index.php/site/oliver_spencer_fall_winter_2011/ http://www.outlooksformen.com/index.php/site/oliver_spencer_fall_winter_2011/#When:20:06:56Z Another one of our favourite English labels, Oliver Spencer has landed here at Outlooks. With a large majority of his collection being not only designed in England but made there as well. We are always really impressed with their outerwear pieces from season to season, this time we have the ever so popular ‘Faringdon’ Macintosh jacket in tan back in action as well as a few other amazing styles. Other than the great outerwear we have a nice selection of shirting, blazers, waist coats, knit wear, accessories and a new footwear selection, the Kyak Boot. Don’t hesitate to check this stuff out in person as it is already flying off the shelves. 2011-10-25T20:06:56-08:00 http://www.outlooksformen.com/index.php/site/wings_horns_selvage_denim_series_for_fall_winter_2011/ http://www.outlooksformen.com/index.php/site/wings_horns_selvage_denim_series_for_fall_winter_2011/#When:18:27:24Z Wings + Horns have re-introduced their denim range for the fall/winter 2011 season, after taking a few years off they are back with a vengeance. Here is what they had to say about their Selvage series in particular: “Made of 100% cotton Cone Mills white oaks 13.5 oz selvage denim, everything about our denim series is entirely local, staying within the borders of North America. From the fabric woven in North Carolina, to the denim itself sewn and washed in LA, we strive for genuine authenticity and the utmost quality in design and craftsmanship, staying true to our values as a brand. It’s the little thoughtful details of our denim that adds character to the garment and makes the piece unique. Incorporated into our denim are heritage-influenced details, such as the selvage in the coin pocket, customized branded shank and rivets, and distinct red-colored stitching marking the selvage on the cuff”. We have received two styles of denim from their Selvage series; the raw and 1-year wash both in the straight cut. If you are after a new pair of jeans this season these two styles should have you covered. 2011-10-22T18:27:24-08:00 http://www.outlooksformen.com/index.php/site/new_arrivals_ds_dundee/ http://www.outlooksformen.com/index.php/site/new_arrivals_ds_dundee/#When:17:12:40Z For this fall/winter 2011 season we have introduced a few new lines to our range here at Outlooks, one being English label D.S.
