The Discerning Brute: fashion, food & etiquette for the ethically handsome man

SHARP SPRING SUGGESTIONS: Wings + Horns, Culturata, Linda Loudermilk, Pants to Poverty, Porter, Folk

• Wings & Horns SS10 collection is out and about, featuring some organic cotton items. I wish the whole collection was organic, but nobody’s perfect. Yet.

• Culturata‘s organic cotton shirts are now available online at Juno & Jove. $95

• Also on Juno & Jove is this Linda Loudermilk mud-cured organic cotton, double-breasted coat. It’s totally out of my price-range at $1960, but I thought the mud-cured leather-like cotton is an amazing idea!

• These organic undies are part of the global Make Poverty History campaign! Today, nearly 5 years after Pants to Poverty were born, their pants sell in over 20 countries around the world, support over 5000 farmers in India and within a week of launching their first campaign, they made one of the world’s most powerful companies pull a killer pesticide off the market! The power really does lie in our pants!

• Porter, the Japanese accessory line, offers a bag made from organic cotton and nylon. $530

• Folk Jeans in organic cotton features a collaboration between Folk and Edwin – and the two brands intertwine their individual styles.

A Fetching Friday

SOFAUX Fashion Factory makes awesome, hand-printed, hand-dyed, organic cotton shirts. Made in Seattle. Get them at BlackBird for about $58

Also check out more organic finds from our favorite lines:

Gilded Age is famous for well-made, classic garments using the oldest looms remaining, and centuries-tested methods of dying and construction. This “Sullivan” organic cotton chambray shirt & “Clarke” organic cotton seersucker shirt are quite fetching.

We love these organic “RIP” and “Sir Edmund” tees from Vuori AW09. Founder, Joe Kdia and Chad Alasantro, use waterbased inks, organic cotton, and well-designed homages to eco warriors. Check out the rest HERE.
