3sixteen hits the spring with a full on relaxed, holiday vibe shown by three short sleeve shirts. The Vacation Shirt features a square hem and signature crosscut yoke. The cotton fabric is a light toned khaki, with a subtle texture delivered by some discreet cross hatch pattern stitching.
The Popover shirt is a button down collar, straight yoke with a 4 button half placket. 100% linen, with coconut buttons and palm leaf print, everything about this piece says summer in the sun and cool evenings relaxing with a beer.
If channeling smart casual is the choice the Short Sleeve Button Down Shirt will have you sorted. With white, floral print to a black background, this soft lightweight cotton option has mother of pearl buttons and a gentle curve to the hem, hinting at a more dressier shirt.
We have also received a restock of 3sixteen twin pack T shirts in all sizes and all colours.

Pure Blue Japan has now released a Trucker jacket with its own unique take. As you would expect from the masters of Indigo dyeing, these iterations demonstrate their skill in colour and tone. They are available in a double black with warp and weft both sulphur dyed. With wear the jacket will fade to grey. The deep indigo version has rope-dyed indigo warp and weft and is full of texture which fades with high contrast over time.
Pure Blue Japan has us ready and waiting for the warmer weather with two completely different takes on the work shirt silhouette. The first comes in a 4 oz. cotton light indigo chambray and the other in a wonderfully soft 8 oz. indigo "sun blushed' check. They are gently washed and faded, offer a relaxed but still tailored cut and have 2 chest pockets. Both come with the signature embroidered indigo leaf to the side seam.

The new jersey t shirts again demonstrate Pure Blue Japan's mastery of indigo dyeing and textures. The 100% supima cotton yarns have been rope-dyed and woven with a distinct ‘slubby’ hand. This extra long staple cotton combined with this construction makes for a supremely soft and comfortable garment able to develop real character.

The Flat Head has taken inspiration from its classic 7001 denim shirt and updated it with a twist . Whilst keeping all the points that made the earlier version so popular – rolled inseams, mother of pearl snaps, western stitch detailing and slanted pockets – this time they have used a natural indigo to dye the yarns. This technique reveals a unique depth of fading with wear. The lighter weight 10 oz. fabric makes this a perfect option to traverse the seasons.
The Flat Head constantly pushes itself to find new and superior techniques in all aspects of its production. They have used a new gradation print similar to how a printing machine works (as opposed to screen printing) to produce the " Steady Blue" loopwheeled THC T shirt. This process allows for a more intricate pattern. The Flat Head has now returned to its original THC series fit.
Also new and updated is the Cordovan card case. Using a highly oiled leather from the Shinki tannery in Japan, this version is tri-tone with a russet brown exterior, black interior, all lined inside with soft yellow pigskin. Ideal for both cash and cards it functions as your everyday wallet or as a smaller slimmer alternative to a bifold or trucker.
We have restocked all sizes of the incredible Flat Head Horsehide Cafe Racer. This equine leather is 1.3mm thick and commissioned to The Flat Head's very particular specifications by the renowned Shinki tannery in Japan.

Our first drop from Stevenson Overall this spring sees the return of the Saddle Horn jacket. This type II style in a 12 oz. indigo selvedge denim has front pleats which hail back to the first denim jackets of the 19th century. This version has a curved front yoke and exposed rivets for extra authenticity. It is single needle stitched throughout.
The long sleeve indigo waffle henley has also returned and is as soft as ever. This is a great fitting garment which like everything in our store just gets better with wear.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/stevenson-overall-co/stevenson-indigo-henley-shirt.html
Lastly and by no means least, we have restocked our range of Viberg boots, including the brown waxed flesh with commando sole, black Engineers, Colour 8 service boots and the classic Boondocker in both leather and Dainite sole.

Literally the first thing I saw when I walked through the door this afternoon was “that” Nine Lives bomber. The placing was deliberate apparently… Tried a few pieces on, probably end up with another t-shirt for the collection. Hope Danny and Junior are enjoying themselves.

Good Art Hlywd is the iterative product of a game of aesthetic oneupmanship that founder and designer Josh Warner has been playing against himself for three decades. Working in only fine metals in proprietary alloys, Good Art Hlywd creates a range of metal goods (and precious stones) so punchy and road-tested that traditional categories like “jewellery” and “accessories” are simply not up to the task.
Josh has marshaled top-of-the-line machines and knowhow traditionally reserved for only the finest European houses in service of a celebration of American ingenuity, gumption, and manufacturing ethos. The result is a brand manufactured entirely under one roof in Los Angeles that sets the bar in terms of both attitude and execution that very few brands, let alone artists, can ever clear.
Most of the Good Art range is only available for purchase in store. We can arrange special commissions managed via email. There are some exceptions. The best ever designed keychain is by Good Art Hlywd. It is known as the Belt Loop Buddy and available in a 100% polished brass or a combination of brass and .925 sterling silver. Boutonnieres are also available for purchase online.
Any items available online will show their price. All other items will be clearly marked "Only available in store"We are honoured to be the first dealer in Europe and we invite you to come to the store and find something perfect.

Question on the first picture in the above posting…Which jacket is worn with the shazam pendants? Is that the black Nine Lives sashiko bomber? It looks very indigo in the picture.

That’s right. It is indigo dyed and heat blackened. The indigo pops through from the go.

Sayonara Outlet Re-Opens
With the arrival of so much great new season stock over the last couple of months, it is time to say sayonara to some special pieces from our inventory by re-opening our Sayonara Outlet. In order to help these choice items find a new home, we have made some significant markdowns – if you have been feeling that you deserve a new shirt, jacket, pair of jeans, or spy something you’ve had your eye on for a while, this could just be the opportunity.

For the perfect summer casual sneaker, Iron Heart comes through with these super comfortable low tops based on the classic ‘Chuck’ silhouette. Constructed by the masters of vulcanisation, Moonstar, these are hand made in Kurume, Japan using Iron Hearts super black signature 21oz denim.

The Olive Whipcord Type III jacket by Iron Heart is a very welcome hybrid of the popular N1 Whipcord Deck and well-tailored Trucker jackets. The super tough 11 oz. fabric is a perfect weight for the warmer months and comes in olive that contrasts well with indigo and black denim. The collar, cuffs and pockets are lined with brown corduroy. The hand-warming pockets double up as internal storage pockets capacious enough to carry a large smart phone and wallet.

Stevenson Overall Co. is a brand that celebrates summer in style with stunning one-off pieces.Sun Valley is a short sleeve Aloha style shirt using a vintage floral pattern in a loose gauze weave. The open collar style was ubiquitous in the booming 1950s at summer holiday destinations throughout America. Stevenson tops off this classic style with original shell buttons.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/stevenson-overall-co/stevenson-overall-sun-valley-shirt.html
Pure Blue Japan has launched a new denim limited to summer 2018. The 1144 is a slubby 14 oz. fabric with natural indigo warp and black reactive dyed weft. The jeans can be worn smart and dressy and the clean lines are finished off with a navy “shoai” leaf emblem on the back pocket. Reactive dyed black yarns will also fade so expect some high contrast evolution over time.
Each season PBJ never ceases to impress us with its new custom fabrics. The lightweight sweatshirt in various iterations is heavier than a T shirt but lighter than a sweatshirt. The fabric is developed in Wakayama and rope-dyed in Okayama. The round hem style comes in crew neck and long-sleeve Henley versions, the latter with indigo dyed chambray buttons. The Military Henleys feature metal buttons and available in both long and short sleeves.
The Slub Jersey T shirt is now available in long sleeve version. The fabric uses 100% supima cotton known for its softness and lustre and is rope-dyed indigo.

Normally restricted to the Japanese market we are offering for the second year running The Flat Head Souvenir jacket.
The ‘Eagle’ truly is a standout piece that overflows with details to simply marvel at. Putting down layer upon layer of embroidery, they have created a beautiful design with real density.
What makes this so special is that even with the tightly packed and super detailed weave, TFH has managed to perfect the balancing act of keeping the whole soft and supple as a souvenir jacket should be. 100% Rayon throughout (embroidery included), fully reversible including the zippers and thinsulate lined to provide warmth without bulk, souvenir jackets just do not come better than this. Available in VERY limited numbers.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/the-flat-head/the-flat-head-eagle-souvenir-jacket.html
Evoking images of halcyon days, the ‘Golden 50s’ T shirt is a great example of a modern, vintage piece. This loopwheeled T shirt features a large design to the back and a smaller crest and logo to the front chest. Constructed with a super soft grey melange body and triple-stitched collar.
For everyday wardrobe staples TFH brings us the Club Label twin-pack T shirts. One white, one grey, amazingly soft tubular knit and triple stitched collar, these packs are a quick and easy way to stock up on perfect essentials.

We received a much awaited restock of our Real Japan Blues x The Flat Head collaboration jeans (with a waiting list as long as your arm) last week in both the RFR-002 (slim tapered) and RFR 004 (relaxed tapered) fits.
These jeans really do take some beating. They use RJB’s renowned signature left hand twill / Zimbabwe cotton denim, the superlative construction knowhow of TFH and with our very own cut and details. They age and improve like no other and are super comfortable to wear. Available in Raw and One-Wash.

Iron Heart comes through with a truly versatile piece, the IHSH-177. Utilising a heavy duty, 18 oz fabric this can be worn as either a shirt or a jacket according to circumstance. They have taken the much loved silhouette of their classic denim western and transformed it into a CPO with the addition of hand warmer pockets, heavy duty press stud fastening and a twill lining to the cuffs, collar stand and pocket linings. This really will cross the seasons with ease.
The Flat Head releases its latest Shinki horsehide Rider's jacket. This custom made leather is a darker shade of black compared with its predecessor. The leather, still a substantial 1.3mm in thickness is slightly more supple than before. Being tea-core with a semi-aniline finish it will age magnificently. The asymmetrical design with D-pocket, cinch buckles, and sateen lining has otherwise not changed. This jacket is a flagship piece of the store and we are thrilled to have it back in stock.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/the-flat-head/the-flat-head-horsehide-rider-s-jacket.html
We have also restocked the high tapered D306 jean in the Pioneer denim. This fit launched last year has proven popular with its medium to high rise, extra thigh room and slim silhouette from knee to hem.
https://rivetandhide.com/the-flat-head-d306-jean-super-slim.html
We have a new jean from Pure Blue Japan. This is their signature fabric - dialled down to a lighter weight 12oz, whilst retaining every bit of character, slub and texture of its heavier counterparts. The 1143 is available in the popular relaxed, tapered fit which allows a little more room in the thigh and rise, with a neat taper to the hem.

The Hawley shirt from Indigofera is a real beauty. Soft but heavyweight in a rich, burnt umber brown, this piece looks great and feels special as soon as you put it on. Heavyweight snap fastenings and a satin lined collar, placket and cuffs all come together to make the complete package.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/indigofera/indigofera-hawley-suede-shirt-dark-brown.html
This week sees the welcome return of the Fargo shirt from Indigofera, in their new 'Winlock' selvedge. Clocking in at a solid 13oz, the Fargo is designed to be either a stand alone piece or to function as an overshirt or jacket substitute, with a liitle extra room built in to the cut. The sanforized fabric is bursting with texture promising unique fading potential and it has some great finishing touches in the form of heavy duty logo snap fasteners along with riveted cuffs and gusset.
Another updated version of an old favourite is the Norris flannel in khaki/charcoal colourway. Using a Japanese, shuttle loomed selvedge fabric creates a soft, comfortable, yet sturdy option.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/indigofera/indigofera-fargo-shirt-winlock-selvedge.html
Perfect for changeable climes, the aptly named All-Weather from Moonstar is now available in this effortlessly casual beige colourway. Each shoe is handmade and fired in a kiln at 120 °C (248 °F) for 70 minutes which causes the sulphur mixed inside the raw rubber to chemically react, returning the rubber to its natural elasticity and creating a soft, flexible, and durable sole. The shoe is then waterproof to the level of the rubber, whilst the canvas upper allows the foot to breathe. Sunshine, showers, rain or even snow - no problem for these.
We have also replenished our stocks of the All-Weather in Khaki and the lower, gym classics in black and white.

Fresh in from Iron Heart & get them while they’re hot.
With the exception of those just starting out on their first, we don’t know anyone who just has one Iron Heart Ultra Heavy Flannel - these shirts win from whichever angle you come at. The eco friendly, non-farmable Aspero cotton provides a superior loft and comfort, more similar to wool than cotton but without the scratchiness, washing and care hassles associated with wool. Double brushed on the inside for extra softness and insulation and single brushed on the face. Spot on fit, felled seams and black logo’ed snaps, these shirts can stand the test of time through style and durability.
The latest iterations in either brown or green have come close to selling out before even hitting our website so don’t sleep on these.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/iron-heart/iron-heart-classic-western-ultra-heavy-flannel-green.html
Also new in - the 21 oz. 777 jeans. Using Iron Heart's renowned signature fabric, a heavyweight 21 oz. denim. It is woven at a tension that allows comfort and breathability right from the go. The 777 is a super slim cut with a great, trim silhouette. It is more tapered below the knee than other Iron Heart styles thus opening up this amazing fabric to a whole new audience.
It has a slightly lower rise compared with the 555-01 which we have also restocked this week.

https://rivetandhide.com/ih-555-01-slim-selvedge-jean.html
To finish off we have also just taken delivery of Iron Heart's heavy duty, Tochigi leather belt. It comes with teardrop holes and a nickel plated solid brass buckle. For those who like their belt length ‘just so’, these are easily customisable, with a brass Chicago screw construction, which allows for easy customisation. Available in natural.

3sixteen has released its new Selvedge Fatigue Overshirt in a Dark Frog Camo design.
This is a 100% cotton fabric woven in Japan and the shirt features two chest pockets, selvedge cut on the placket and crosscut back yoke. This garment can be layered but is hefty enough to be worn as a jacket.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/3sixteen/3sixteen-dark-frog-camo-selvedge-fatigue-overshirt.html
Schott NYC’s ‘Perfecto’ brand's P571 Café Racer is a unique iteration of a stone cold classic. It comes in a smooth, waxed black cowhide with tonal hardware and detailing throughout. Unlined, this jacket gives a tactile, up close and personal feel when on. It is clear that age and wear are going to lend an amazing patina to this leather as it shapes and moulds with its owner.
Rogue Territory enters the new season with the return of the Traveler Shirt in two beautiful Japanese fabrics.
Both the Navy Neppy Plaid and Grey Jacquard have lots of texture as their names suggest. They come with Club collar, Japanese urea catseye buttons and are slim fitting.We have also restocked the **Slub Stealth 17 oz SK jeans **with black warp and weft. A great option for anyone in search of super slim black jeans.

Indigofera's heavy twill Alamo shirt returns our favourite colourway to date - Ocean.
Alamo is a regular fitting work shirt and sizes big.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/indigofera/indigofera-heavy-twill-alamo-shirt-ocean.html
Momotaro Jeans has come through with some great shirting in perfect tones for the autumn. Available in either olive or grey, the selvedge twill shirt is impeccably cut with a trim silhouette and a cutaway collar, making this a spot on solution to the ‘what is smart casual’ conundrum. The fabric is a super-soft 95% cotton and 5% wool mix which feels really comfortable against the skin.
For a more worker oriented, vintage option there is the chambray 100% cotton stripe shirt. Keeping the same slim cut as their casual counterparts, this version features a more classic styling with point collars and a stitched Wabash stripe. There are two chest pockets, one a patch pocket with button fastening, the other open top with pen pocket sewn in.

Our friends in Japan have suffered a torrid few weeks with violent typhoons disrupting daily life but thankfully everyone is safe and well. This has had a delaying effect on production schedules but as life gets back to normal autumn deliveries are now gathering pace.
The Flat Head is well known for constantly raising the bar and pushing both craftsmen and materials to explore the limits of what can be achieved. This ethos is perfectly demonstrated by their latest range of wallets which are really quite something to behold.
The three options are hand-sewn in Japan and all include a solid, sterling silver, engraved chain ring and leathers sourced from Japan's Shinki tannery.
Firstly, a mid length, tan cowhide which has an internal zip coin pocket. Secondly, a sumptuous bi-fold using Shell Cordovan leather polished and shiny on the exterior whilst the interior presents a softer matte finish. These have a tab closure coin pouch and come in either a rich, deep brown or black.
The piece de resistance, however is the quite frankly astounding; a tall wallet that eschews the standard straight lines for gentle, elegant curves which match up perfectly on each side. This is craftsmanship of the highest degree. Made from beautiful cut of Shinki Shell Cordovan.

UES might not be the first name that jumps to mind when thinking of heavy flannels. However, they are able to create the heavyweight fabric thanks to their access to an original Schoenherr weaving machine. The result is a brushed cotton both extra thick and extra soft. With a neat, slim silhouette, these shirts come with chain stitched body seams and ivory palm nut buttons. Available in either a toned down navy or a more vibrant red.
https://rivetandhide.com/shop/brands/ues.html
Stevenson Overall Co. introduces the new ‘Big Sur’ jean this season. The Nihon Menpu denim mill uses the finest long staple cotton the US has to offer. Stevenson does the resulting 14 oz. green line selvedge denim justice with subtle, yet unique pattern stitching accents to both the rear and coin pockets, offset folded belt loops and a smart, slim tapered cut. The stitching details are as impressive as always as Stevenson uses a rare narrow gauge lap seam. The denim comes sanforized.
Along with the jeans we have a full size restock of the Quartermaster chinos in both khaki and indigo. These are some of the best fitting chinos we have seen and are in the original, heavyweight chino weave fabric.

Anyone got just the one pair of Chup Socks? No, us neither. Why would you when the range of colours and designs is so compelling. Inspired by traditional patterns and palettes from across the globe there is always something to appeal and delight.
