This Fall/Holiday season Element have unveiled a series of warm and sleekly clothing dubbed The Wolfeboro Collection which when considered phonetically carries in itself a sense of warmth and sensibility to it. Go on, just say it: ‘Wolfeboro’… you want to wrap the sounds around you right? Well, as it turns out the clothes featured in this collection are just as inviting.
The Wentworth subtly draws attention thanks to its well-fitted shape and simple design. It’s 100% cotton shell comes exclusively in simple colourways: black, chocolate brown and a more natural beige/brown. Pictured right is the chocolate brown colourway which has been painted on my chest frequently in the nippy weather we’re having. The branding isn’t at all heavy, just a simple leather appliqué style tree icon badge below the shoulder. The button front pockets are deep and comfy for your greasy mitts with enough room for that perpetually necessary bag of crisps, or whatever you want that’s around the same size as a bag of crisps. It should be noted that the interior lining comes in a 100% cotton red/black plaid pattern and is staggeringly dope. A unique selling point for sure.
It should not be regarded as the armour of choice when braving the Mother Nature’s Winter roster of absolute arseholes, wind and rain being the key perps behind our discomfort. But with its high neck it puts off that inevitable scarf purchase a little longer and is perfect light jacket material to take to gigs and save you some money at the cloakroom; it’s water repellent too… rad! It’s on a seriously smart/casual tip too which, unless you’re Danny from Cradle of Filth, is probably right up your strasse.
