The Cut, Vegan Butchers & Weigh In

• Fashion Week is still going strong, and I made “The Cut” in New York Magazines best street style for day 6 of the shows while handing out copies of PINNACLE. I am sporting my very own Brave GentleMan tie, Ben Sherman faux-leather and canvas bag, M:Zero shoes, organic cotton Velour shirt, vintage vest, military surplus shorts, and vintage frames.

• Can you be vegan and a butcher? Marc Mongiardo thinks so. But isn’t that a little like being a pacifist MMA fighter? Or a Hhman Rights Activist who also works in human trafficking? I’m confused.

Marc Mongiardo is a vegan butcher at the BriarPatch Co-op Community Market's meat department.

• Vegan Bodybuilder Robert Cheeke suggestively weighs in on how to keep on, build up, and maintain healthy weight for dudes who don’t eat animals. Banana anyone?

Pumping Iron & Spring Tees

• Some of my favorite organic cotton lines have unleashed their spring collections: Vuori, Loomstate, Bassike, and Howies.

Loomstate also offers some great organic denim. I like the more fitted styles like “Manifest” and “Prophecy”. Howies has some perfect organic cotton shorts in gray, and recycled poly bathing trunks in bright, poppy red.

Spring Jackets are important if you’re in an area that has a cool or rainy spring, like we do in New York. Livity has a rad hemp-fur lined, recycled poly, water repellent bomber jacket! If a Mr. Rogers is more your speed, their recycled hemp, organic cotton five-button cardigan will be your neighbor.

• Speaking of spring fashion, who wants twiggy arms coming out of their tee shirts? If you’ve ever thought about getting diesel, the guys over at VeganBodyBuilding.com have some great resources. They cover everything from nutrition and strength training, to endurance and workout techniques. They’re even working on a documentary following three vegan bodybuilders as they prepare for 12 weeks to compete in a natural bodybuilding competition in Phoenix, AZ.
