  Jump into six quadrillion gallons of fresh water with Field Notes’ Summer 2022 Quarterly Edition. “The Great Lakes” set of five Memo Books celebrates Lakes Michigan, Superior, Huron, Erie, and Ontario. Indigenous peoples’ deep knowledge of these five glacier-carved lakes served them well for for agri­culture, hunting, and trade. Today, the Great Lakes continue to connect Midwestern manufacturing towns to the rest of the world. These waterways have brought people together for thousands of years. If you grew up around Marquette, Manitowoc, Mentor, or Mississauga, the Great Lakes are your frame of reference, and anywhere in the region feels like home. Field Notes' Chicago HQ sits just a couple miles from Lake Michigan, so a Great Lakes set has been on the brand's radar for years. Neenah’s vibrant Cobalt Techweave cover stock gave them inspiration for the isometric triangle rendering of the lakes found on the covers, with each book’s featured lake highlighted in silve...

  Bellroy's mission to simplify your life continues with the return of the coin wallet. Another multi-functional design, the "Coin Fold" is an all-rounder that allows you to gather and access all the important stuff in one package.  As usual, the brand aims to reduce bulk; formed from just three panels of leather, the wallet is for those that find their lives constantly soundtracked by the sound of jingling coins. Removing your own personal pocket percussion by storing coins within an easy to reach slot, the usually bulging change holder is replaced by a flat pouch that opens at a pinch. Bellroy describe, "coins are cumbersome, but often necessary. So we’ve made a new way of holding and managing them - easy to access when you need, hidden when you don’t."  Premium full-grain vegetable tanned leather in black , marine blue , basalt , ocean , java and caramel are your choices, get yourself organized!

  Here at Fat Buddha Store we are thrilled to welcome back one of our favorite grooming brands Triumph & Disaster . Triumph & Disaster's philosophy is to use the best of science combined with the best of nature to produce naturally derived but scientifically engineered products that work.

They aim to respect nature, utilise science,  create products of ritual and tools for preparation - so we can treat Triumph & Disaster , those two imposters just the same. Shop the...

Saucony celebrates the 40th anniversary of its classic Jazz silhouette with a new and improved version designed to give new ‘heads an icon to call their own. Arguably the most iconic shoe in Saucony’s 123-year history, it’s reborn as the — a sleek reinterpretation that stays true to the original overall design and tweaked with modern style considerations.
