Rogue Territory x Need Supply: “Wash Me Over” Collaboration

Karl — Sun, 02 Jun 2013 05:05:49 +0000

We recently teamed up again with our good friends at Need Supply Co. to release an exclusive summer-inspired collaboration called “Wash Me Over”. This limited edition capsule collection includes 3 signature pieces in a beautiful washed out 6oz Japanese selvedge chambray from Kaihara mills. Our classic Jumper Shirt, Field Jacket and Officer Trousers have been enzyme washed and hand-distressed, so each garment in this collection is unique.

“Wash Me Over was inspired by work, wear and the passing of time. Each piece is meant to feel like it has its own story to tell through the functional and subtle details to the faded colors and well-worn feel of the fabric. I wanted this collection to feel familiar but new at the same time.”

Below are some images from Need Supply’s summer lookbook titled Nowhere Fast, featuring the Field Jacket and Officer Trousers.

Rogue Territory Spring / Summer 2013 Lookbook

Karl — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 03:29:43 +0000

Our Spring/Summer 2013 collection incorporates a little bit of new and a little bit of the familiar. We brought back popular pieces, such as the Dark Indigo Supply Jacket in 10oz selvedge denim and the Raindrop Camo print, while introducing some new short sleeve chambray shirts, and two washes in our classic Stanton and SK jeans, a first-ever for Rogue Territory. The color palette is neutral, and each piece was designed to pair well with anything in our product line-up.

Rogue Territory x General Quarters Moto-Vest Collaboration

Karl — Sun, 10 Mar 2013 05:25:01 +0000

We recently teamed up with our good friend and owner of General Quarters in Los Angeles to celebrate their 2 year anniversary by collaborating on an exclusive raw denim motorcycle vest, made of 15oz black Japanese selvedge denim from Nihon Menpu mills. The fit is the same as our Supply Jackets – we kept the deep hand warmer style pockets and hidden right chest pocket, but added a new patch pocket with flap closure on the left chest, giving this vest an unique look.

Just like all Rogue Territory products, this denim vest was built with function in mind. We opened up the armholes to allow for ease of movement and room for layering. Whether you ride or not, this moto-vest is a perfect addition to your denim collection.

PRE-ORDER is available on our site, or at General Quarters on 153 S. La Brea Ave., Los Angeles, Calif. (323-937-5391) through March 18, 2013.

Blair is an avid rider and his passion for motorcycles and motorcycle culture comes through in the thoughtful design and curation of his store and products. We thought it only fitting that we make something that was inspired by his love of motorcycles.

The Basics of Man

Our longtime supporter, and an all around rad dude, Nate Remington of TheBasicsofMan recently snapped some styled shots that we just had to share.

In the City he spent some time hanging out with another longtime supporter of ours, Dillon Burke of Thread&Salt and took some pics of him in his 1 year old pair of RK ISCs.

Both of these guys have great personal style and POVs and we definitely suggest that you follow them if you aren’t already.

Natural Herringbone Work Shirt Out at Sea

Karl — Mon, 17 Dec 2012 04:39:04 +0000

A customer of ours, Bryson, spends about 6 months every year out at sea on a commercial fishing boat. He fishes wild black cod (one of our personal favorites) off the coast of Alaska. Majority of the fish he catches are shipped directly to Japan. Bryson recently shared some amazing pictures of him at work in our Natural Herringbone Work Shirt (not to mention the freshest black cod we’ve ever had!)

We love when customers share their stories and travels with us, so if you have any, please email them to info@rogueterritory.com. We’d love to feature them!

October – Rose Bowl Flea Market Inspiration

Karl — Mon, 15 Oct 2012 15:57:57 +0000

Here in SoCal, we’re pretty spoiled when it comes to flea markets. On any given weekend, there is a flea market happening somewhere, whether it be Long Beach, Fairfax, or the world famous Rose Bowl Flea Market in Pasadena (2nd Sunday of every month). Here are a few things that caught our eye this month, because of their color, typography, nostalgia, or straight-up awesomeness.

Glass beads designed to mimic snake vertebrae

Spices upon spices (the scents wafting from this booth were insane)

Native American blanket (left) and Indigo-dyed wabash (right)

Vintage ‘Rogue Trooper’ comic book

Vintage Ouija board game with amazing typography (and made in Salem, MA – how appropriate)

Vintage Planet Explorer toy (left) and Dennis the Menace comic book (right)

Icons – Felix the Cat and Buddy Lee

Vintage Matchbooks

‘Erector’ – exploding with awesomeness

Vintage ‘Chemical Gardening for the Amateur’ aka 3 Easy Steps to Poisoning Yourself (left) and Dia de los Muertos art (right)

A Trip to LACMA

Karl — Mon, 15 Oct 2012 01:26:37 +0000

We finally got around to visiting the Levitated Mass by Michael Heizer at LACMA this weekend. The parentals are in town and it was another beautiful 75 deg sunny LA day, so why not. Leslie snapped some shots of me in the new Light Blue 8oz Selvedge Denim Work Shirt. It was a little warm on this day, but as the weather slowly starts to change to Fall, this will be the perfect weight shirt. For reference, this work shirt is the same fit as the ISC and Drake Camo work shirts.

They were an early supporter of our burgeoning brand, and we look forward to many more exciting collaborations with them in the future!
