Esemplare is an Italian brand that makes ill jackets with military design cues, but their name is ambiguous at best.



Ever been at a nice restaurant with a new girl looking over the appetizer menu, and she’s like “Lets order the Esemplare, I LOOOOOOOOVEEEE Esemplare” and you’re like “Yea same. We should definitely roll with that.” even though you have no idea what the hell you just agreed to, but agreed anyway just to save face? At least it showed up and was delicious, kind of like this jacket maker on the menswear landscape.
Head over to the Esemplare website and take a look for yourself.
Initially I went to the site expecting the jackets to cost about a FIAT, but they actually are reasonably priced at around $500 – $1000.
Thoughts?
Woolrich has got you covered for when you’re looking to dodge raindrops and gold diggers:

A collab with USA’s own Woolrich Woolen Mills and the omnipresent camo king Mark McNairy. 100% cotton rip stop fabric, handwarmer pockets for maintaining that coziness, and a “high stance” hood. What? You only fuck with regular stance hoods? It’s 2013 homie, high is the new regular… check yourself before your wreck yourself.
£415 ($619 USD) over at End Clothing. Swerve.
