The Hill-Side, a Brooklyn and Connecticut-made accessories line, features some really dashing spring ties made from selvedge fabric. Typically, fabric near the selvage is unused and discarded, but lines like Hill-Side not only make a handsome accessory, but they divert waste from hitting a land-fill. Visit their website for store locations.
The Hill-Side makes ties and pocket-squares from selvedge fabrics, diverting them from landfills and making really cool, classic square-end ties, pocket squares, and handkerchiefs. I bought a brown, waxed cotton tie and think it’s just swell.
There’s a few cool, organic cotton items over at Denim Demon – but watch out because this label also uses deer antler buttons, some leather, and some wool. We love the organics and the style, but hey Denim Demon, next season steer clear of the cruel stuff, ok?
