Hand-Eye Supply enthusiastically announces our very first Quarterly Look Book - "Selections for Winter 2012", Art Directed and Photographed by Christine Taylor and Designed by Lyndsey Lee Denyer, showcasing workwear pieces from Pointer Brand's Special Make line paired with a few select pieces from the Hand-Eye Supply store.
Hand-Eye Supply's look book series will be released four times annually and feature some of our favorite maker personalities from Portland, OR. For our Winter 2012 book, Evan Kinkel of New Deal Distillery kindly offered to model our wares in their facility. New Deal Distillery provides high quality, craft-distilled spirits, inspired by the DIY spirit of Portland. Their artisanal vodkas are made locally in small batches with Bull Run (Portland's Reservoir) water and natural and organic ingredients, sourced locally whenever possible.
To celebrate 100 years of manufacturing durable, high quality workwear in the USA, the L.C. King Manufacturing Company has created the Pointer Brand Special Make Line - unique and small production runs inspired by their customers. Each piece is hand-sewn in Bristol, Tennessee as it has been since 1913.
Since Hand-Eye Supply has opened it's doors we've championed Pointer Brand for its heritage appeal and stalwart character. When we learned they'd be developing a new small run line tastefully tailored to contemporary tastes it was only natural for us to make the Pointer Brand Special Make line the center piece of our shoot.
