Everything old is new again. Case in point: The SCOTTeVEST Classic Vest. It has been over 3 years since my first review of a SCOTTeVEST product. That review was of the original eVest. Since then, we’ve reviewed several jackets, a leather coat, pants and even a hat. Now we’re back with a review of their [...]

I’m happy to announce that sharp dressed geeks now have an additional outerwear option [...]
I’m a gear bag fanatic. I am constantly scouring sites like eBags.com to see if there are any new bags that I might like to buy to carry around all of my daily junk. At the moment, my favorite bags are a Louis Vuitton Nil that Judie got me for my birthday, and the Small [...]
