Blackbird Blog: WELCOME: NIGEL CABOURN - JAPAN COLLECTION AW2010

Fit, textiles and value. We are simply in awe of the new Nigel Cabourn collection (read all about him here) we just received. Everything is made in Japan, for the Japanese market, fit for the Japanese customer. This means that all garments have high arm holes, are trim in the body but not tight (just like grandpa would have wore back in the 30s and 40s). Best of all, the shirts are made from a heavy cotton flannel and totally reversible, but not in that lame way where you are wearing a shirt inside out but actually two shirts in one with no funny tags, pocket or seams. I have the chills!
