Big check plaids are where it’s at this season. One’s that are lined and can be worn as a stand alone or over top a sweater for the later months are even better. Shout outs to the Sherpa lined flannel from HUF. HUF, or the man behind it, pro-skateboarder Keith Hufnagel has been killing it for a minute now with recent footwear collabs with Reebok, Nike, Van’s and Converse (yes, in that order) and, Keith was just interviewed by ESPN. While every single piece HUF releases sometimes eludes us, the stand alone pieces, like this one, are the business and as good for Canadian winters as they are out in CA. Available here.

With all the attention given to Porter’s small accessories and shoulder bags, totes and cases, their backpacks or ‘ruck sacks’ are often overlooked in some circles. Regardless, they live up to the moniker of Japan’s finest luggage company named after the people who still handle more bags than anybody else. This ruck sack with a removable zipper pack is a part of Porter’s orange-lined TANKER series which has been part of the collection since 1983 and since undergone some incarnations, the PORTER x adidas Five-Two 3 Nizza immediately comes to mind. The bag features an ultra-durable sheen Polymide outer and a large internal compartment with drawstring and clasp closure. While the shape leaves something a little more to be desired, the functionality can’t be beat. Available here.

I’ve been a large supporter of Last Rights since they launched. Not only do they have great marketing (check out their promo video on the site) and spokespeople such as Mickey Munday and Kid Cudi, but they have by far some of the best cut & sew pieces on the market right now. View and shop the whole collection now on Sketchy White Van.

Mighty Healthy is keeping it innovative by moving away from the standard streetwear x streetwear collaborations, and has linked up with UK contemporary label Garbstore on a collection of t-shirts, each still showcasing the witty nature that Mighty Healthy is recognized for. Three different designs are shown here, all featuring very simple graphics with low-key colourways. A 2010 release is planned through select retailers worldwide.
