White Mountaineering is continuing to become a favorite brand of mine.

Not only do they have a great logo with a slick font but its designed and founded by Yosuke Aizawa, a former assistant to Junya Watanabe.…

SWT has been a busy place lately and has had a welcomed amount of new readers the past couple of weeks.

I wanted to thank all of you for spreading the word and giving SWT some love.

A HUGE thanks to Selectism too, I did a Wear & Tear Piece for them featuring my Quoddy’s (check it out here).

In honor of the Tour De France  coming up…

1986 was the year Greg LeMond (USA) won, he was the first American to win the Tour and it was brutal…

It’s also the first year an American cycling team entered (7-Eleven)

Here are some photos of the epic race in 1986 and a video of the most difficult leg… the French Alps…
