The 501 Jean: Stories of An Original
Levi’s 501 style has been around since the 1940s, and an American staple since its launch. In this three part series, their design team gives us a look at the development of the original 501 work pant, and how it has shaped work and casual wear in the near eighty years since its introduction. This first part traces the heritage of Levi Strauss’ first patent for riveted denim through over a century of coal miners, ranch hands, and industrial workers.
Full Moon
In one of our very first editions of the Round Up, We profiled Salomon Freeski TV’s award winning documentary, Eclipse. This chronicle of a group of diehard ski pros chasing a once in a lifetime photo in one of the most inhospitable places in the world was ripe for some parody, and that’s exactly what photographer Jay Dash, and his team of athletes at the recent 2016 Ski City Shootout set out to do. They might have only been chasing the monthly full occurence in Utah’s Big Cottonwood Canyon, but their adventure will last a lifetime.
