For Black Friday only, get a free pair of MACV-1s with the purchase of a Black GR-1. This is a steal of a deal, I’ve been testing the MACV-1s and they are very comfortable. The Boot Guy loves them too. The Black GR1 is the best backpack on the market and it never goes on sale, but getting a free pair of $195 boots with it, stellar deal.

Today Bluffworks launched a 2.0 variant of the shirt, the same shirt but with a revised fit. They sent me a review sample to check out, and since the shirt is mostly the same, I won’t do a new review of it, but will add some thoughts about the new fit. I’ve previously reviewed the Meridian Dress Shirt here, and I continue to love it. I take it everywhere.
The goal with the revision is to make it so that if you generally buy a size L shirt, you can buy a size L with the Meridian. But they’ve also done something else, something way better: you can buy this shirt in Slim+Tall variants. As someone with long arms, but a slim body, it is always a torture for me to get a shirt that doesn’t look too big with sleeves that are also long enough.
I received a size Large in Slim fit with Tall length and it is perfect. It’s very hard to find this type of a combination, especially in performance based shirting so I am very happy to say Bluffworks offers this.
One last note, they sent the Tattersall color, and it’s great. This shirt is one of my favorites, and with the new sizing it’s only gotten better.

GORUCK recently announced a price increase effective September 1st 4th across all products. Now that the new prices are out, we are surprised how much the clothing will be going up (27-50%). At the new prices, we no longer think the pieces we’ve reviewed present a great value (Simple Windbreaker and Simple Pants). However, if you’ve been thinking about it, you still have until September 1st to grab them at a reasonable price.

We ran across this article, and the key point in this article strikes home with the mission we have for Everyday Wear:
The average American purchases a staggering 65 new garments a year, contributing to the 150 billion new pieces of clothing manufactured globally every year. Worse, Americans aren’t keeping their coal-made clothes: They’re throwing away 80 pounds of clothing per person per year, a 100% increase from 20 years ago.
We strive to review and recommend clothes that you will want to keep for a long time.
Another way for a more sustainable clothing industry is repair. Some of the best brands offer to repair their clothes (Patagonia and Arc’teryx). Patagonia even provides guides on how to repair their gear yourself and buys-back, cleans, and resells used gear in their Worn Wear program.
