Dolbeau | Madras Tie

From the department of What You're Rocking/Peep Your Steez/Boom! comes "Julien's Japanese Madras Tie" from Dolbeau, a Montreal-based purveyor of seriously fresh accessories--ties, scarves, lapel pins, and bracelets. It's the kind of stuff that adds zing to your daily look, and this little madras piece that they kindly sent over is a prime example. A collaboration with author/artist Julien Smith, the tie is cut from 100% Japanese madras cotton and is tipped with eco-friendly Japanese Bemberg cupro. Its lining is in two layers, brushed cotton and spun horsehair, which give the tie an easy, pliable feel and a lightness appropriate to the warmer months. It is available in six different colors and patterns, and the width is spot-on at 2.75 inches. In case you need additional incentive, each tie is individually cut and sewn by hand in Canada.

Nike Air Yeezy 2

The Air Yeezy sneaker is a collaboration between Nike and Kanye West. It's Nike's first such collaboration with a non-athlete. The first edition dropped in '09. The Yeezy 2s drop June 9, 2012. It's safe to say that there has not been a more anticipated sneaker release this year, and maybe ever. There are those who disagree, and that's fine, but you're of the mind that the Yeezy 2s are the most sought after kicks in recent memory for a reason. Kanye and Nike really nailed it this time around. 

Good luck getting a pair. Production and distribution are extremely limited. Camp out or enter a raffle or something. 

The first pics are of the Wolf Grey/Pure Platinum colorway; the last two are of the Black/Solar Red colorway.

Burberry A/W 2012 Ad Campaign

Burberry just released their Autumn/Winter 2012 advertising campaign, and it's pretty much hot fire. The cinematic black-and-white photographs by Mario Testino were taken at the iconic Royal Naval College in Greenwich, London, and feature two rising British talents--Roo Panes and Gabriella Wilde. Full-on Britishness here.

And, for good measure, several behind-the-scenes photos from the shoot.

Scott Bacigalupo

As a young goalie, your number one role model on the lacrosse field was Scott Bacigalupo (Princeton '94). As a shot stopper, he was second to none; however, he was unorthodox, throwing any part of himself or his equipment at the ball.  He was a bold defensive leader, and he played with tremendous flair. You had the chance to meet Mr. Bacigalupo in 1994, following an early season home victory for Princeton. He could not have been more friendly, humble, and encouraging.  

One of the most celebrated college lacrosse players ever, Scott Bacigalupo was a three-time first team All-American (1992, 1993, 1994) and second team All-American (1991) goalie, a four-time All Ivy League member, and the recipient of the C. Markland Kelly Award for Division I Goalie of the Year (1992, 1993, 1994) and the Raymond Enners Award for Division I Player of the Year (1994). He guided Princeton to two NCAA Division I Championships (1992, 1994), during which he was twice named tournament MVP. In 2010, he was inducted into the National Lacrosse Hall of Fame. 

Drake's Jubilee Pocket Square

In tribute to the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II, Drake's produced a limited run of 200 Jubilee handkerchiefs. They are handmade from 100% silk, and are resplendent with British patriotism.

Paste Swim Trunks

Brooklyn-based Paste just dropped a new line of trunks for summer that feature a slew of bold prints and fresh graphics as well as more conservative solids. Designer Jason Laurits brings together Hokusai prints, kitschy parrots, and retro stripes in a collection of well-tailored swim shorts. The cuts are trim, hitting above the knee and making movement easy and comfortable. Paste uses dye-sublimation to print, a process of heating the actual image onto the fabric, which increases durability against seawater, chlorine, and sun. As with all Paste apparel, the swimwear is made in the USA. 

Now for the best part...Paste is offering Things Is Cool readers a discount of 20% off of all regularly priced items through June 4. Simply enter the code "COOL" at check-out.
