First images from Spring 2010 collection

Here is a preview of some of the images we shot for Spring 2010 yesterday. The Model in this photo is Jason Howlett (http://www.jasonhowlett.com/) and the photography was produced by Gabe Toth Photograhy (http://www.gabetoth.com/).

Jason was selected from a short list of 30 male models in Toronto for this shoot for his classic rugged looks and free-spirited character. He nailed the image of what we wanted for Haight & Ashbury.

The Chelsea Shirt

The Chelsea shirt is a good 'classic' shirt with a slim silhouette for all the guys out there who stay in shape and wants something a bit more trim through the torso.

The collar is a cut-away style with a wider band to lengthen your neck when buttoned up and offers structure when worn open. What's great about pairing this shirt with a jacket is that is that the collar stay tucked under the lapels for a more polished look.







One of the signs of a well-tailored shirt are dart stitches on the back. Darts create a streamlined silhouette and creates the illusion of a slim torso while amplifying your lats.








Simple barrel cuffs with a single button give a classic finish to the shirt while the angled cut on the corner is a complimentary nod to the cut-away collar.

The Figo Shirt

The first shirt in our shirt program is called Figo which is slim cut with the option of button-down collar.
One of the design features of this shirt is an armhole panel which extends around to the back shoulder enhancing fit around the arms, shoulders and chest.









Dart stitching at the back of the shirt creates a slimming silhouette and helps from bunching underneath your jacket.










Button detail on sleeve placket as well as an additional hole between buttons to insert cuff-links
