Ahead of something rather special arriving over the next few days, we thought we’d introduce you to the man behind it.

Meet Zip Stevenson. If you’ve spent any time around the heritage world, chances are you’ve come across his work—even if you didn’t realise it. Zip isn’t simply a designer. He’s a vintage dealer, historian, collector, leatherworker, and one of the people most responsible for preserving the craft of classic American leather goods.

His journey actually began with repair. In the early 1990s he founded Denim Doctors in Los Angeles, repairing vintage jeans and leather goods. Thousands of garments passed through his hands, giving him an intimate understanding of how these pieces were actually made—not just how they looked.

That experience led to an obsession with vintage American belts from the 1930s, ’40s, and ’50s. He collected them, studied them, took them apart, and learned from them. Eventually, the originals became almost impossible to find. So instead of simply collecting them, he started making them himself.

That’s how Hollywood Trading Company was born.

What we particularly admire about Zip’s approach is that he never set out to reinvent the belt. Instead, he asked a much more interesting question: what made the originals so good?

The answer wasn’t just the leather. It was the hand-set studs, the tooling, the hardware, the proportions, and all the little details that only reveal themselves after handling hundreds of original vintage examples.

It’s a philosophy that feels very familiar to us. Understand the past. Respect it. Learn from it. Then recreate it with the same care and craftsmanship that made the originals worth preserving in the first place.

Tomorrow, we’ll take a closer look at the belts themselves.

If there’s one thing that convinces us that Kay is the Jedi Master and the rest of us are merely Younglings, it’s moments like this.

He walked into the studio carrying what was officially listed as a navy sweatshirt and a pair of olive sneakers. The rest of us looked at the outfit and collectively thought, “Ehhh…” But hey, we all have an off day now and then. Fortunately, it wasn’t us who had to wear it—that particular honour fell to Gwidon.

Then he put it on.

And somehow, it all clicked.

As it turned out, the missing ingredient was the pair of ecru jeans, pulling everything together into one seriously good outfit. Simple. Fresh. A reminder that sometimes the combinations you’d never choose are exactly the ones worth trying.

Starting from the ground up, we’ve got The Real McCoy’s Military Canvas Training Shoes. Inspired by military training footwear from the 1940s, they’re about as honest a pair of sneakers as you’ll find. Tightly woven cotton canvas, lightweight rubber soles, and a stripped-back construction that proves you don’t need much when the fundamentals are right.

The jeans come courtesy of Studio D’Artisan and are woven on the legendary Toyota GL3 shuttle looms. These remarkable machines haven’t been built for decades, and keeping them running has become something of an art in itself. Producing only around five metres of denim an hour, they create a wonderfully irregular fabric full of slub and texture. This ecru version skips the indigo altogether, allowing the natural colour of the cotton and the beautiful weave to take centre stage.

Up top is Warehouse & Co.‘s Lot 4105 Short Sleeve Sweatshirt. Although officially offered in Navy, the garment has been washed to produce something far more interesting. The deep navy has softened into that slightly faded navy-purple hue you only ever seem to find on genuine vintage sweatshirts that have spent decades being worn, washed, and loved. Knitted on traditional loopwheel machines in Wakayama, it has the soft, substantial feel Warehouse are famous for, while the washed finish gives it the effortless look of a favourite vintage find.

Okay, first things first. Leonard has officially requested to be known as Lenny.

And honestly… He is 100% a Lenny.

Since joining us a couple of months ago, he’s become our own little ray of sunshine. And now that he’s joined the team full-time, you’re going to be seeing a lot more of him on this feed.

To brighten up an already sunny day, Lenny reached for this rather extraordinary number from Star of Hollywood.

Now… We don’t know whether he’d quite clocked what the print was before putting it on.

But it’s certainly distinctive.

The Shrunken Head motif first appeared in the 1950s and has since become one of Star of Hollywood’s rarest and most sought-after designs. Original shirts are almost impossible to find today, with only a handful known to exist in collectors’ hands.

It’s exactly the sort of wonderfully oddball design that makes vintage Aloha shirts so endlessly fascinating.

A little bit tropical. A little bit rock ‘n’ roll. A little bit punk.

And somehow, paired with this wonderfully soft lilac colourway, it all just works.

The fabric is equally interesting. An open-weave rayon hopsack gives the shirt a lightly textured, almost grainy surface while maintaining the soft drape and movement that rayon is loved for. It’s airy, breathable, and made for warm summer days.

The print itself is created using a traditional discharge process, removing colour from the already-dyed fabric rather than printing on top of it. The result is a softer finish where the artwork becomes part of the fabric itself instead of simply sitting on the surface.

It’s bold.

It’s unusual.

It’s wonderfully eccentric.

And somehow…

Lenny wears it like it was made for him.

We caught a brief glimpse of these boots yesterday alongside the Buzz Rickson’s cargo trousers and chambray shirt.

But honestly…

We thought they deserved a closer look.

Because quite frankly, they’re a stunning pair of boots.

The Viberg Service Boot has been at the heart of the Canadian bootmaker’s lineup for decades. Its origins go back to the 1930s, when Edwin Viberg set out to create the toughest, most dependable work boot possible for farmers, loggers, and field workers in the unforgiving conditions of western Canada.

Over the years, the Service Boot has evolved into one of the defining silhouettes in heritage footwear. Rugged without feeling bulky. Refined without feeling delicate. A boot that looks just as comfortable under denim as it does with tailored trousers.

This particular version is built on Viberg’s 2040 last and crafted from something rather special.

Maryam Horsebutt.

Produced by the renowned Maryam tannery in Italy, Horsebutt comes from the dense rear section of the horse hide, where the fibres are naturally tighter and more compact. The result is a leather with exceptional strength, very little stretch, and a wonderfully clean surface that still allows the natural grain to shine through.

A light wax finish enhances that character even further, giving the leather a subtle depth that changes beautifully as it’s worn.

Like all great vegetable-tanned leathers, it won’t stay looking factory fresh for long. Instead, it develops. Creases deepen. The surface burnishes. The colour gains richness. And the boots slowly become unique to their owner.

When you hear the words technical fabric, you probably think of something developed in a laboratory. Synthetic fibres. High-tech membranes. Space-age materials. But that’s actually a fairly recent idea.

Long before modern performance fabrics existed, technical clothing relied on something else entirely: natural fibres, clever weaving techniques, thoughtful pattern cutting, and designs built around the job they needed to do.

And this outfit is a perfect example.

It was photographed on one of those brutally hot Berlin summer days, yet every single piece here was originally designed to perform in exactly those kinds of conditions.

Let’s start from the ground up.

The Viberg Service Boot might not be the first thing that comes to mind for summer footwear, but good leather is one of nature’s great performance materials. It breathes remarkably well, regulates temperature far better than many synthetic materials, and remains comfortable over long days on your feet.

This pair is crafted from Maryam Horsebutt — an incredibly dense vegetable-tanned horse leather from Italy. Strong, beautifully textured, and the sort of leather that only gets better the more it’s worn.

Moving up, we’ve got Buzz Rickson’s Wind Resistant Poplin Trousers.

Originally developed as Jungle Fatigue Pants for American troops serving in Vietnam during the 1960s, these were designed for one of the harshest climates imaginable. Lightweight cotton poplin offered durability without unnecessary weight, while allowing air to circulate and drying quickly after rain, sweat, or humidity.

It’s military design solving a very real problem.

And finally, the shirt.

Buzz Rickson’s short-sleeved Chambray Work Shirt is another masterclass in simple functionality. Based on the work shirts worn by the U.S. Navy and Army, the indigo chambray weave offers the visual depth of denim while remaining significantly lighter, cooler, and more breathable. As it fades, it develops exactly the sort of character we all love in indigo fabrics.

A little lesson learned from Paris last week. Forty-five degrees. Little shade. A lot of walking. It reinforced something we’ve suspected for a long time: A good bandana is an essential bit of kit.

Every season, when we head off to the trade shows, we seem to come back with at least one—and sometimes what feels like a hundred—bandanas. Brands often hand them out as a small gift, an easy way of sharing a little piece of their identity with customers.

And we’re always grateful for them.

But this time, one of them earned its place for a much more practical reason.

Soaked in cold water and draped around the neck, it made wandering around Paris in the summer heat considerably more pleasant.

That got us thinking about the humble bandana.

It’s one of those objects that’s so familiar it’s easy to forget just how old it really is.

The word bandana comes from the Hindi bandhnā, meaning “to tie” or “to bind,” referring to traditional Indian tie-dye techniques that date back centuries. By the 17th century, these beautifully printed cotton cloths were being traded around the world, eventually becoming one of the earliest globally recognised accessories.

From there they found their way into the hands—and pockets—of farmers, sailors, labourers, railroad workers, and eventually the cowboys most of us now associate them with.

Practical. Versatile. Always close at hand. And that’s still true today.

These versions from Indigofera carry that same spirit while adding another layer of personality. Produced in collaboration with Swedish artist Björn Atldax, they transform the humble bandana into a small piece of wearable artwork. His distinctive illustrations have become closely associated with the brand over the years, giving each design its own story and character.

So yes, they’re great around your neck. They’re great in your back pocket. And, if Paris last week taught us anything…

They’re also remarkably effective at keeping you cool when the thermometer starts doing silly things.

With many of the classic products you’ll find in the store, there’s a point where the design is simply… finished.

After decades of refinement, there really isn’t much left to improve.

So instead of changing the silhouette, brands look to the materials.

And that’s exactly what Viberg have done here.

The Service Boot is one of those enduring designs that has remained remarkably consistent for almost a century. Its roots stretch back to the 1930s, when Edwin Viberg set out to create the toughest, most dependable boot possible for farmers, ranchers, and prairie workers.

Today’s 310 last builds on that legacy. Developed by combining the proportions of an early British climbing boot with a mid-century work boot, it creates one of the most distinctive silhouettes in modern footwear.

The defining feature is the beautifully sprung toe.

Originally developed in the early 20th century, the raised toe creates a gentle rolling motion while walking, making heavy work boots noticeably more comfortable over long days on your feet.

So if the silhouette has already been perfected…

The leather becomes the story.

This version is made from Dark Brown Kudu leather supplied by the legendary C.F. Stead tannery in England.

Kudu comes from free-ranging African antelope, and unlike heavily corrected leathers, it proudly retains the marks of the animal’s life. Natural scars, grain variation, subtle colour shifts, and an incredible depth of texture mean no two pairs are ever quite alike.

It also happens to be wonderfully soft, exceptionally tough, and develops character almost immediately. Every scratch, crease, and pressure mark simply becomes part of the boot.

Which feels entirely fitting.

Because the very best boots don’t stay pristine.

They become better looking every time you wear them.

One of the simplest, most timeless outfits you can put together is a pair of blue jeans and a white T-shirt.

The thing is…

It doesn’t actually have to be blue jeans.

Swap them for a well-cut pair of tailored trousers, and the formula works just as well.

That’s exactly what Gwidon is demonstrating here

Here, Gwidon pairs Buzz Rickson’s classic Package T-Shirt with MotivMfg’s Pier Trousers.

The T-shirt is based on the everyday cotton tees issued to U.S. servicemen during the Second World War. While tanks tops were reserved for summer and wool-blend shirts for winter, the humble short-sleeved cotton T-shirt became the dependable everyday layer.

Buzz Rickson’s recreates it faithfully, using a beautifully soft yet surprisingly durable jersey that holds its shape even after years of wear and washing. It even comes packaged in a period-correct military-style pack—a lovely detail for anyone who appreciates the history behind even the simplest garments.

The Pier Trousers show exactly what MotivMfg do so well.

Taking military chinos and traditional tailoring, then blending the two into something quietly contemporary. Cut from lightweight linen, they breathe beautifully in the summer while the soft texture and elegant drape elevate the whole outfit far beyond casual.

Small details—like the reinforced double belt loops, coin pocket, and riveted hook closure—show the level of craftsmanship that goes into every pair.

Finishing things off are the Fellini Boots by Chico Imrie.

Their elegant proportions, refined 343 last, and remarkable Canguro Nero kangaroo leather bring just enough formality to pull the entire outfit together without ever feeling overdressed.

It’s proof that the white T-shirt might just be the greatest wardrobe hack ever invented.

Dress it up.

Dress it down.

It simply works.

First things first.

If you want to witness the greatest photobomb in the history of photography, scroll to the last picture.

Honestly, there is absolutely no way we’ll ever reach that level of cool.

Anyway…

Let’s talk about something from a brand we don’t usually associate with summer.

Until now.

Because Iron Heart have arrived with not only a pair of summer-ready shorts, but in this fantastic washed purple colourway too.

The IH-729 Easy Shorts are exactly what you’d hope they’d be. Relaxed fit, elasticated waistband, uncomplicated construction, and built for those days when the heavyweight denim gets a well-earned day off.

They’re made from a sturdy cotton twill that has been garment dyed after construction, giving them that slightly lived-in appearance straight out of the box. And, just like so many great Iron Heart fabrics, they’ll continue to fade and develop their own character with wear and washing.

Not quite brave enough for the purple?

Don’t worry—they’re also available in classic olive and khaki, if you’d rather keep things a little more understated.

Paired with one of Iron Heart’s heavyweight tees, the whole outfit somehow manages to feel relaxed while still carrying that unmistakable Iron Heart attitude.

And then there’s Lenny. Serving what can only be described as post-Fusion Festival energy. It suits him. And as for those big old boots… Well, let’s be honest.

Big old boots go with absolutely everything.

Long before activewear became an industry of its own, athletic clothing was simply well-made clothing. Sweatshirts, T-shirts and training shorts were built to survive daily use, repeated washing, and years of wear. They belonged to college teams, local boxing clubs, recreation centres and neighbourhood athletic programmes.

The Real McCoy's have spent years studying exactly these kinds of garments.

The Norfolk Recreation collection feels as though it could have been lifted straight from one of those forgotten gym lockers.

The shorts are particularly impressive.

Produced in Japan on traditional Sinker knitting machines, the heavyweight cotton fleece has a density that immediately catches your attention. For something designed as athletic wear, it feels remarkably substantial. The kind of fabric that makes complete sense once you've handled original sweat garments from the 1940s and 1950s.

The T-shirt follows the same philosophy.

Its 8oz tubular jersey is considerably heavier than what most of us have become used to. Knitted on old circular machines, it carries the slightly irregular character and reassuring weight that makes vintage athletic wear so enjoyable to wear.

The graphic itself takes inspiration from original garments found within The Real McCoy's extensive vintage archive. Old teamwear, faded training shirts, and forgotten athletic uniforms continue to serve as references for new collections, allowing these designs to feel familiar even when you're seeing them for the first time.

For those who prefer things a little quieter, the shorts are also available without the print.

Same fabric. Same construction. Same remarkable weight.
