Archival Clothing: Musettes





Archival Clothing announced the delivery first run of their flap Musette. Available in late January, with a follow up of a canoe-style rucksack in February. The Musette is a simple envelope-style bag with a fixed shoulder strap. The Flap Musette, slightly bigger, has a flap closure, adjustable strap, and inside pockets. These bags are designed to combine the simplicity of the cycling musette with the durability and use value of a field bag. The Archival Clothing musettes are made of stout, closely woven waxed cotton and military-grade cotton webbing. All edges are bound in waxed cotton tape, and all stress points are bar-tacked. Solid brass hardware is used throughout. Made only for Archival Clothing in Springfield, Oregon, these bags are practical and free of complications. $44 per bag.

Weekend Wear



The weather here is North Texas has been a lot colder this December then normal and I love that. Been venturing out more with friends for drinks, dinners and parties. More is planned and expected. With darker days and evenings, I seem to lean more towards darker and rawer denim and more layers, with a hint of color.
