Seersucker summer

It seems that a lot of people have had seersucker on the brain lately. When the temperatures start to rise it's only natural to start thinking about that most unusual wobbly weave of fabric. It's comfortable, nearly infinitely versatile, and a breeze to own and care for.

 This seasonal textile disorder® is serious stuff. It gets people thumbing through L.L. Bean catalogues, searching through stacks of shirts at Brooks Bros. and hitting up the Google machine for places to get their fix. With this season's somewhat obsessive searching pay dirt comes in a fresh new form.

Lindland's Courdarounds is the pay dirt du jour. Not only do they do seersucker, they do seersucker like no one else. Best of all, all of their stuff is made right here in San Francisco. Their slogan: "Made in San Francisco. Only online. Always ready to help." Nice attitude.

There's so many things to like about this company and their products. They do small production runs of interesting and fun designs and then move quickly on to the next thing keeping their lines fresh and ensuring that you'll almost never experience the most embarrassing of fashion fouls. Each garment is filled with pleasant surprises like peek-a-boo pocket liners of contrasting fabrics, beautiful buttons of swirling filigree and their "bike to work" pants have cuffs lined with 3M reflective material to make you highly visible when riding in the evening. Great details, interesting designs and locally made - you just can't go wrong.

    The Bike-to-work pants are great! But honestly, as a big man yourself, how could you recommend a place that only makes pants up to 36" waist?

    Actually, they make pants up to size 38".

    Oh fashionBear, please do not hate me for what I am about to utter, but I loathe seersucker. Not for the fabric itself, but for it's misuse and abuse. Outside of a spring wedding in east Hampton, virtually no one knows how to wear it with out looking like some urban hipster who had raided his great uncles costume closet.
