Jamison of Howard Yount
Have ordered a number of things over the years from Howard Yount because as you can see below, Jamison has excellent taste in menswear.
Fine merino turtle neck sweater
Still on the hunt for the perfect turtle neck. If anyone has a good lead let me know.
Timeless
This Turtle neck fine merino sweater was sourced 5 years ago in a small boutique store in Paris, France. And as the degrees drop here in the Antipodes, 5 years on, this piece is just as relevant as it was back then.

Of course you’re going to need to stand on a chair to measure a man who’s 7ft 2in tall (2.18 m).
Gaziano & Girling Grosvenor
We’re excited about these new double monks strap shoes from G&G. We first set eyes on them at our trunk show last October and we knew we had to have them for our stock.
Made on the sharp square TG73 last in Midnight calfskin these babies are for rocking out in suits or jeans.
The Grosvenor is one of the newer models designed by Tony Gaziano and it will be among others on display during our upcoming trunk show April 23rd.

Wrap yourself in one of these winter warmers
As we head into winter in Melbourne, I’ve been looking to add to my winter wardrobe. One of my favourite pieces of winter wear is the scarf. They add a bit of colour in an otherwise dark and dreary environment and the feeling of a fine cashmere scarf around your neck is a winter delight along with whisky from Islay, fireplaces and taking the day off to stay in bed.
