By this point it should be no secret that we here at the eye are huge fans of the Polaroid.

Made of 100% Silk with images created in collaboration with M. Cherie, the scarves are a really quality product that is unique to itself.

PEGLEG x OPENING CEREMONY SWEATSUITS

While I am not a huge fan of matching sweatsuits myself, I am a huge supporter of Pegleg and Opening Ceremony, and the prints on these are really nice. For the latest collaboration between the two highly regarded brands, they have come up with these great floral themed colorful sweatsuits. If you are like me, you may just want to stick with a floral print hoodie, but if you are a man made for the full sweatsuit, I don't think you will find a better one on the market.
These items are always quick to fly so be sure to get to Opening Ceremony or the Pegleg Online Shop to pick yours up sooner than later.

MONCLER V COLLECTION

 Moncler has been on their collaborating grind as of late. This one with Visvim is particularly exciting, venturing beyond the down jacket they're best known for by adding some easy fall pieces. The deconstructed jacket, henley, and boots leave me wanting more. We'll have to wait and see what else designer Hiroki Nakamura has up his sleeve.
