NEW PRODUCT: NORDEN CANDLES March 24 2015

Norden Goods have arrived at Service, and we are very happy to welcome these beautiful candles to the stock list. Norden is the creation of husband and wife team Erika and Pete Panciera and their products are all hand made in Encinitas, California - from the creation of the stoneware containers to the pour of the U.S.A sourced soy wax. The scent of each candle is inspired by the smells of Erika and Pete's favorite places, from Big Sur, California to a small town off the coast of Maine.

The best part of these products other than the great scents? The reusable container becomes a keepsake object after the wax has burned away. Just wash the container out with warm water and soap and use it as a coffee cup, succulent planter, pen canister or a shaving mug - the secondary use is up to you!

Available in three scents:

  • Big Sur - Oakmoss, Pine, Citrus, Wood Smoke
  • Monhegan - Sandalwood, Tobacco, Leather
  • Idyllwild - Cedarwood, Sage, Vetiver, Citrus

Take a look at Erika's artist website and Pete's artist website here and here. All photo credits nordengoods.com.

SPRING DENIM AT SERVICE March 01 2014

Warmer weather is finally upon us in Austin, and lighter wash and weight denim is in stock for the season here at Service. You may be thinking, aren't ultra light wash jeans the epitome of dad jeans?...au contraire mon pere (see what we did there?!), the pieces we have in from Gant Rugger, Levi's and Naked & Famous hug the body for a slimmer, modern fit.

Above, Christian dressed in Levi's 511 White Bull Denim ($68) with a Gitman Vintage navy poplin shirt ($155) and Cole Haan brown leather chukka boots $228).

Right, Gant Rugger Ultra Light Faded Denim ($178), RVCA red striped tee ($38), and Vans Zarape Era's ($60).

Good looking faded jeans: Gant Rugger Stick Boy Ultra Light Faded Denim ($178) and Levi's 513 Bellingham ($68).

Naked & Famous LightWeight Selvedge jeans ($165), perfect for raw denim enthusiasts in the Texas summer heat. Comes in WeirdGuy fit.

Naked & Famous Griffin Grey jeans come in Skinny or WeirdGuy + Levi's 513 in Monument Grey. A good chino or trouser alternative, grey denim looks great with a darker color button down on top and a boot or oxford shoe. Alternately, grey jeans (as do any jeans) work well scuffed up with your favorite tee shirt and your oldest pair of sneakers.

Levi's 511 White Bull Denim ($68) + Levi's 513 in Viva White ($68)...don't be scared to get them a little dirty, it's bound to happen and just adds to their vintage appeal. Wear them snug and slim and get ready for the compliments...you're gonna look sharp. Come see us and we'll get you set up with a sturdy pair of denim meant for those highly anticipated warmer days.

Trivia: The term bull denim is used to describe a slightly heavier weight jean (14oz. plus), produced in a greige (grey or off white and undyed) fabric. Typically, bull denim refers to colored jeans, as the fabric is garment dyed during production or printed.


THE GROOMING DEPARTMENT AT SERVICE February 07 2014

Some of the most commonly asked questions that we get from our customers regarding the shaving ritual using a traditional safety razor. The question we most often hear is, why use a safety razor? The answers are cost and healthier skin. A 10 pack of safety blades costs about $1.00 per blade (compared to $2.50 to $3.00 per cartridge for disposable razor blades.) When compared to an electric razor, a safety razor gives a much closer shave and leaves skin in better condition, due to only one blade crossing the skin. Although it makes for a quick shave, it isn't necessary to use a razor that uses three or more blades.  Multi-blade razors can greatly irritate the skin and electric razors are akin to a lawnmower for your face.

What should your shaving kit contain? There are two ways to go about it, the difference being that one makes use of a brush, while the other uses shaving cream from a tube:

  • safety razor
  • pack of razor blades
  • shave cream from a tube or a traditional shave soap in a bowl
  • shaving brush if using a traditional shave soap
  • brush stand so that the brush lasts and dries properly
  • alum block, with antiseptic properties, help seal and heal wounds (for the ladies reading this post, the alum block is an amazing product to use on your legs)
  • moisturizer for those with dry or sensitive skin
  • razor bank for safe storage of discarded blades

Merkur Long Handle Double Safety Razor ($75) & Merkur 10 Pack Razor Blades ($12)

Service Menswear has been stocking a Merkur brand long handle, double safety razor. Merkur is a highly regarded razor manufacturer from an area in Germany where some of the best steel manufacturing in the world takes place. Our Merkur razor is chrome plated with a handsome dotted pattern on the handle. In addition, Service stocks a 10 pack of Merkur blades. If you shave every single day, and depending on the coarseness of your beard, a 10 pack of double sided blades should last at least 4 months.

How many passes should it take to shave with a safety razor? The blade should cut the hair close to the skin after a couple of passes using gentle pressure. If it feels like you have to go over the same area many times to reduce the hair, the blade may need to be replaced. With that said, it is normal to go over the same area more than 1 time, as the risk of nicks is high if the blade gives a very close shave in just one pass.

We are also often asked, "how to choose the proper blade?" For new shavers, it may seem like the sharper the blade the better, but keep in mind the sensitivity of your skin and the coarseness of your beard. We stock and recommend Merkur blades as a good starter blade, and the blade of choice for many. There are sharper blades on the market, such as Feather brand, but newbies beware, these blades are extra sharp and recommended for more experienced shavers. Lastly, there should be no irritation with the use of aftershave, and if there is, this is an indication your blade is too sharp. The Home Alone experience should not be the norm!

What is the difference between badger, horse, and boar bristle brushes? Badger holds water best and creates the richest lather, but horse hair is a great alternative at a good value. Boar bristles, sometimes labeled natural bristles, are effective at creating a good lather and are inexpensively priced.  Service offers selections in each category. 

From left to right:

If you are thinking about trying wet shaving for the first time, come take a look at our selections and let us know if you have any questions.

PANTHERELLA FINE ENGLISH SOCKS November 07 2013

Pantherella has been making the finest of English socks since 1937. Using high-quality materials such as Sea Island cotton, Superfine merino wool, and pure cashmere, each pair is hand-linked at the toe for a smooth and secure finish. We've all had the same issue at one time or another when our sock seams annoyingly rub against our toes in our shoes. Pantherella's signature hand finish ensures supreme comfort with their smooth seams.

New argyle socks in an array of bold and neutral colors! In store now.  Service regularly stocks Pantherella, so come on by if you're itching to add a little color and pattern to your sock collection. Cleaning out your sock drawer? Come check out Service's full selection of socks from our other brands: Richard James, Etiquette, Toddland, and Altru.


ALTRU APPAREL November 05 2013

Altru Apparel, known for their clever t-shirts, has recently branched out to offer a full range of clothing. Service has stocked jackets, socks, chinos, and woven shirts from the California designed brand for Fall. Whether you live in Austin, SoCal, or New York City, Altru offers a great way to add interest and whimsy to an otherwise neutral Fall wardrobe.

    
This jacket is reversible and comes with three interchangeable draw cords in blue, orange, and white…rad!

    
Left, each embroidered chino has  a pop of pattern in the interior pockets and fly. Right, printed woven shirts with arrows and Altru x the New York Times...shirt with printed New York Times T's.

    

In addition to clothing, Service has stocked eight different brightly colored socks with fun graphics. We love 'em.


THE UNBRANDED BRAND October 15 2013

"No branding, no washes, no embroidery, no ad campaigns and no celebrities."  A straight forward pair of jeans that wear in perfectly over time. In store now! UNBRANDED is the perfect everyday jean that offers you a whole lot of bang for the buck. At $82 to $88, the maker's of Naked & Famous Denim now offer a new brand of slim, raw selvedge indigo denim, or selvedge chino, with all the best details that you might find in a jean that's far more expensive.

We've stocked two finishes. The first, a selvedge jean made from 100% sanforized* cotton 14.5oz Japanese raw rope-dyed indigo selvedge denim. The second, a navy twill selvedge chino. Each finish features classic selvedge details, a button fly, hidden back pocket rivets, chain stitched hems and a clean unbranded leather patch. We are stocking both finishes in a skinny and a tapered fit.



If you're the type to never wash your jeans, get ready to experience some of the best fading and crease marks ever. Here's an example of what the indigo denim looks like after 9 months of wear, 1 dip in the ocean at 5 months, and a wash at 6.



*Trivia: Sanforization is the process of pre-shrinking a fabric to eliminate the residual shrinkage, in this case of denim, to less than 1%. In contrast, fabric that does not undergo sanforization is likely to shrink up to 10% (a couple inches in the waist) on the initial wash and can continue to shrink up to 3 washes after. The sanforization process was developed by Mr. Sanford Lockwood Cluett in 1930 and we thank him very kindly for taking a large percentage of the guess work out of shopping for the perfect denim. Now bring that to your local pub quiz.

NEW NAKED & FAMOUR SELVEDGE CHINO October 03 2013

We've currently stocked a new color of Naked & Famous' WeirdGuy selvedge chino…introducing a nice rich brown for Fall.

On top of that, we’ve restocked all sizes in the WeirdGuy in selvedge olive green. If you missed out on them the first time, we’ve got you covered!


FALL VANS HAVE ARRIVED September 25 2013

If you’ve shopped at Service in the past 20 some years, you know we love our Vans over here. Good news for the other fans out there, new Vans for Fall 13 have hit the store in some cool new prints.

A fresh collaboration from Vans x Liberty paisley Eras and the Authentic in snakeskin (don't worry, they're vegan). Both classic low-top, low profile sneaks with all over print, vulcanized rubber sole, and signature waffle outsole.

2 new surf style chukkas have hit the store too. A suede and tweed lace up style in addition to an awesome collaboration from Vans and the non-profit Krochet Kids. These guys are more like moccasins you can skate in, with Vans signature ultracush washable footbeds and slim rubber soles. Wear the navy tweed version without socks to take full advantage of the fleeced herringbone lining.

Now for the trivia: Vans #44 deck shoes, Authentics, first came on the scene in 1966, while Vans #95, the Era, launched in 1975 at the height of the skate revolution. Liberty of London originated just a tad before Vans, in 1875. Together, Vans x Liberty nod to the heritage of each iconic brand. But we're sure you already knew all that.


HOOK & ALBERT June 21 2013

New sock arrivals from Hook + Albert are the perfect Summer accent.  Service is stocking three styles of socks.  All feature specialized arch support, hand-linked toes, a contoured stitched heel, and are set in the world's finest Peruvian cotton.

Be sure to also check out the lapel flowers by Hook and Albert.  A unique accessory for a summer wedding or other event that requires a jacket. Hand-cut and hand-starched, the flowers are made in New York City with fine fabrics and 100% shell buttons to attach to your jacket's lapel.

 

 

 


PHANSTASMAGORIA BELTS June 12 2013

Next up in our Father's Day gift idea line up are Phantasmagoria Belts: We think these belts in particular would make a really special gift for dad because they are entirely handmade in a small studio in Denver, Colorado.  Phantasmagoria belts are made from European cowhides using the shoulder of the cow. Most of the hides arrive in Denver with a natural leather color and are then hand stained. The leather is then hand cut, and the edges are beveled by hand. Next, they are inked with an acrylic edge sealer to give a pop of contrast. The buckles are sewn on with a rainbow colored nylon thread. The majority of the hardware comes from several small factories in Tuscany, outside of Florence. They are finished to the specifications of the maker and owner of Phantasmagoria belts; Lawry Covell.

    

He says of his work, "My goal is to make great casual belts that are minimalistic in design, and uncompromised in quality. These belts will last a long time and conform to your waist, making them very comfortable to wear. Many of my customers tell me they are the most comfortable belt they own."

    

Four beautiful styles now available at Service. 


ETIQUETTE CLOTHIERS June 10 2013

NAKED & FAMOUS + ONI May 01 2013

The ONI - Naked & Famous collaboration is no longer in production… NOOOOO! This 14.5 oz unsanforized/shrink-to-fit collab combines ONI’s original slub/streaky denim with Naked & Famous’ Weird Guy fit. Since this collaboration is shrink-to-fit you will need to size up a full size.

ONI (meaning “demon” in Japanese) brand denim manufactured in Okayama, Japan, has a huge cult following.  Legend has it that the creator of ONI, Mr. Oishi, is the only person who knows how to work the 80-year-old shuttle loom - this is one of the reasons why each and every inch of ONI’s denim is so special!

We have a small size run left- get them soon before they are gone FOREVER...

BIG JOHN JEANS BY NAKED & FAMOUS February 03 2012

Big John was the first ever Japanese denim brand, founded in 1940. Originally, they were a manufacturer of uniforms, but when competitors started using polyester they couldn’t compete and insisted using natural cotton fabrics. So they looked to the USA to see what garments were made of cotton. They found jeans. Originally purchasing their selvedge denim from Cone in the USA, Big John eventually commissioned a Japanese mill to create denim fabric in Japan for the first time ever. The first ever Japanese denim brand, with the first ever Japanese denim, in collaboration with Naked & Famous - available at Service Menswear.
