Clothing inspired by vintage American boxers, where to buy my favorite t-shirt under $100, a calf leather shoe that I can't stop thinking about, and a denim drop you don't want to miss.

In today’s letter:
Leveling up our daily life with rare house objects
Where to buy my favorite loopwheel tee that doesn’t cost $100
Good denim for under $250 + a wool half-zip from the same brand that you need to know about
Spanish calf leather footwear that might just become my everyday option this spring
Simple lightweight jackets and quality hoodies for the enjoyers of simple style
A brand making garments that are inspired by vintage American boxers.
and more.
OBJECTS ARE FOREVER
I like to believe that surrounding yourself with quality objects around the house sets the tone and vibe of your personal taste, and it ends up translating to the clothes you end up wearing in a subconscious way.
Think of it this way; if your wardrobe is of high-quality but it lives in a home that’s surrounded by objects that generate what I like to call, low-quality frequencies, then your ability to understand your clothes on a deeper level will become off-balance.
It’s almost in the same realm as going on a quality trip but booking accommodations that are lacking in that same feeling. You don’t even realize it, but you could have a much higher overall trip experience if you invest in every aspect of your trip—including the accommodations.
As I’ve been thinking of rebalancing my own at-home frequencies, I found Galerie 21, a Tokyo based shop that has plenty of rare objects to set my home vibe right. Their shop selection isn’t huge, but the products they do offer are highly curated and rotates quickly
It’s a shop that carries stuff you’re not going to find anywhere else online—I mean, check out those Toyota branded ceramics from the Showa era! Do I need them? Probably not. Do I want them? Absolutely.
They do offer international worldwide shipping via DHL! Shop Galerie 21 on their site here.

MY FAVORITE TEE RIGHT NOW
I have done a lot of research to find the perfect t-shirt that’s right for me. Most important thing I look for is a bounded collar—I hate when tees stretch out and start doing that bacon neck thing that nobody likes—and of course quality of the fabric.
Problem with good quality tees these days is that they all cost $100 just for one. But, I do have a tee that is only around $60 that has everything you’d want in a perfect tee: loopwheel construction, bounded collar, unreal softness, and it doesn’t fall apart after a wash.
