Our new men’s skincare line from Baxter Finley was started in 1965 Beverly Hills long before it was trendy for a man to take care of himself. He was the pioneer, creating a single product that has expanded into an entire line of stuff for intellectual grooming. The shave, hair and home of the Baxter of California man represents the playboy who’s not ashamed to clean up nicer than even his ladies. Products range from the face cleanser and exfoliating scrub to the two different hair type pomades, a shave cream and aftershave balm as well as body washes and soaps.

The Arc newsstand is still growing. Current titles of i-D, Dazed & Confused, Monocle, French Vogue, Vogue Collections, Another, Another Man, Tar, Art Review, The Gentlewoman, Acne Paper, A Magazine and a new title from Italy called Pizza.

The January window is up now. New Zuriick shoes for men on the reverse side next to all new leather and canvas travel bags that arrive next week. Leather belts on shelves and Zuriick patterned socks on hooks. Should be a great finish to a hard winter.

An afternoon assortment of random soon-to-be-founds.

Oatmeal woolen Navaho pancho, suede ankle boots, leather ammunition holster, monogrammed Gucci wallet.

The weekend brought both rain and new inventory to Arc. Come in this week for tons of new goodies. Stuff your cheeks for Winter with Missoni, Christian Dior, Dries von Noten, Miu Miu, Yves Saint Laurent, Prada, Karl Lagerfeld, A.P.C. and the never ending story of those 50s and 60s favorites. Expect trenches and tweed, cashmere, canvas and camel with wool and worry-free sunglasses, staple bags and boots for guys and a bit of early 90s flair for the ladies.

Working with multiple pearls allows you to hear the sweet sounds of nature during the fall season. Arrange them from big to small and you can hear all the way back to the ocean. These screw on pearls are from the 50s.

Camel Leather Soles

Arriving this week from Zuriick, a shoe company based in Utah, these great fall/winter styles that should be required wearing for all men. The canvas lace-up with leather sole and the leather three-lace boot. These are just a couple of the brand new shoes coming into Arc this season.

In reference to inspirations, Parker Tovey of Zuriick says, “As of late, it’s been Mike’s (our designer) hobby of working on old machines (Japanese motorcycles and landcruisers), which you will see in the upcoming seasons with our work boots. As far as colors go, I typically am inspired by my surroundings. Color combinations that catch my eye when I’m outside. Currently I’m working on Fall/Winter 2011 and the colors came from some photos of Sweden in the winter.”

Remember this Miu Miu Campaign, Arc has the skirt. Too bad the somber moods of summer’s passing don’t come with it.

Just in this morning, a set of ladies ankle boots in leather and suede. Knitted interiors, fringe accent pieces and ribbon add some extra lady-like detailing to the rugged, terrain-ready styles.
