The Complete RFW Tokyo Spring/Summer 2015 Shoe Collection/ Filson’s Debut Watch Collection, Produced by Shinola/ Exclusive Red Wing Heritage Ice Cutter Boot for J.Crew



You can shop them starting next week. Also stay tuned for RFW’s web store relaunch.





After over 100 years in the business, Filson is proud to introduce their first-ever watch collection. If you’re thinking these look oddly familiar, thats because the full line was designed and produced in Detroit by Shinola.

The inaugural collection includes two case designs that span a total of 25 styles with strap options including the traditional NATO style, steel bracelets and even leather bands from Horween. Pre-shop the entire collection ranging from $600 to $1,000 directly through Filson online and look for them in-store come March.

In the midst of an historic New York blizzard, we introduce the latest weather-informed boot by Red Wing for J.Crew. Although we don’t expect many of you to be trekking out onto frozen ponds in these, the original Ice Cutter Boot was crafted for icemen who did just that. In an age before home refrigeration, icemen would venture to frozen bodies of water to harvest large blocks of the cold stuff. These rugged, waterproof and most importantly, slip-resistant boots served as crucial aids in the rather rough profession.

The revamped Ice Cutter is made from a slick otter tail leather, lined with cozy wool and finished with sturdy Vibram lug soles. Find them exclusively through J.Crew online for $390.
