Eddie Bauer and The Economist

I've always found shirt jackets deceptive: they manage to be far warmer than they look. I recently picked up a wool one by Eddie Bauer that is definitely on par. It looks great, it's versatile, and very warm.

Also, thanks to a birthday present from a good friend, I now have a subscription to The Economist. Something that I've been wanting to get for a long time.

Sperry Canvas Boat Shoes

Boat shoes seem to be everywhere nowadays and I've gone through periods of wanting a pair and then not wanting a pair and back and forth. While browsing the Eddie Bauer catalogue at home yesterday I caught a glimpse of these salt-washed canvas Sperry boat shoes. I had been drawn the leather Sperry's before but these look rather interesting to me and I'll have to check them out the next time I'm at Eddie Bauer.
