Todd Snyder x Woolrich combine to create a legendary capsule

When you are a clothing brand that’s been around long enough to provide socks, coats, and blankets to the Union Army in the Civil War, you can pretty much call yourself the country’s oldest outdoor outfitter. And that is exactly what Woolrich calls themselves. Coming up on 200 years of excellence, the brand still holds true to its three core values: American heritage, Purposeful design, and iconic brand elements. Todd Snyder is another American icon who has established a name that very well could be around at his bi-centennial celebration, thanks to impeccable style and incredible craftsmanship. These two have now come together for an epic collaboration to get you outdoors. The Todd Snyder x Woolrich is now available for the dedicated outdoor enthusiast.

The 35+ items in the collection have many things to love. The number one thing that will likely catch your attention if you are a fan of Woolrich is the Buffalo Check Long Parka. One of Woolrich’s most famous creations is the Buffalo Check flannel, which was inspired by the buffalo owned by the Woolrich family. Snyder puts a modern spin on the garment by making it more usable for the outdoors in extreme cold. The Reflective Shirt Jacket may look like a standard felted wool jacket, but on closer inspection, you will find the kind of Todd Snyder detail he has been known for, a reflective glass woven into the fibers to create a silver-white glow. These are just two examples of the features and style you can expect from the two icons of Americana.

What sailors in the Race to Mackinac, America’s oldest freshwater race, wear on their wrists
The race from Chicago to Mackinac Island is a days-long battle against the Great Lakes. In that kind of contest, you need a watch as tough as the job.
Boat, Sailboat, Transportation

The Race to Mackinac has been run since 1898, when five boats set out from Chicago. Today it covers 333 statute miles up Lake Michigan, crosses into Lake Huron at the Straits of Mackinac, and finishes off Mackinac Island — and it is not an easy voyage. It is also not a gentle one. Sustained gales flattened big chunks of the fleet in 1911, 1937, and 1970, and after a deadly storm in 2011, the Mac's reputation for danger stopped being theoretical. The fastest boats finish absurdly quickly now, with an all-time record of 18 hours and 50 minutes set back in 1998, but most crews are out there for two or three nights. The sailors alternate, sleeping in shifts of four hours each, until they (hopefully) make land.

It might seem tough to imagine doing that once — now, try doing it two dozen more. For those who make the journey at least 25 times, the prize is entry into the Island Goats Sailing Society, founded in 1959 and now several hundred strong. Rack up 25 Chicago Macs and 25 from Port Huron, and you become a Double Goat. The nickname, as the story goes, comes from the aroma a crew carries after days at sea with no shower. All things considered, this is a tough, electric, occasionally dangerous race. The Chicago Yacht Club hosts the race annually in mid-July, and that's exactly where I went to look at watches.
