Unis Lee, the designer of the brand UNIS – is the queen of the mens chino pant, if you do not believe me –  just ask GQ (google it). We have been interested in Unis’s chino’s for two years now, but had not had an opportunity to connect with Ms. Lee and the brand – so we waited. After meeting up with Unis here in LA where her pants are made, we fell in deep like wth her and her collection. Based on a simplicity that is steeped in quality, fit, fabrics and a steadfast determinatin to make the best product she can, we knew her collection was right for the shop. Made from Italian cotton, this classic flat front famously named the “Gio” has a slim contemporary fit and a modern color family ie - mist & carbon (above). Trust me or try them on for yourself!!!!

Spring Summer 12 is the season of suede shoes Period. All the coolest styles are dropping in suede and we made sure to get the best of the best for you. Pointer UK has created a new tier within their distribution structure that right up our alley, quality product, tight distribution aka hard to find product and the styles are classic but modern. The cornflower Saha is so dope I really do not need to say much, other than – this is not a deep navy color it is “cornflower” - a light navy that is perfect for the season and will crush it with our mist colored UNIS NYC Chinos coming in shortly (tomorrow). The higgle is a shoe I loved as a kid in lace ups (my step-father rocked them), so I jumped all over the opportunity to bring them to the BU in this amazing copper colored suede with the ring closures. I’m done I cannot say anymore. Click through . Give a Call . CANVAS 310.317.9895

Lastly the 3 eye Chukka in arabica is the truth of the season and will kill it with shorts, chino’s or denim. You choose – only winners in this collection. Click through . Give a Call .

We have been buying Rogan NYC for women for years, so we decided to bring in the mens collection for sp12. We couldn’t be happier as the pieces are cool (Vorian Polyfill Jacket), the fabrics are interesting - recycled cotton hoodies (Faykan Hooded Sweatshirt) and sweaters (Gaius Sweatshirt). They even got me to like and buy a henley (Chatt Henley) and the Dune cropped pant is off the chain. Click through . Give a Call . Canvas 310.317.9895
