A buying guide to men’s base layer bottoms
More traditional types might try The Vermont Country Store’s 100% cotton, red union suit ($35) that might add a little bulk, but looks good layered under a button-down for any mountain man or urbanite. Putting their brand spin on the classic wintertime base layer (or pajamas, for many), Burton calls their Midweight Union Suit a “classic Dutch oven” that will keep you warm on the slopes and off. The Dryride Ultrawick fabric keeps moisture to a minimum while you stay mobile. ($60)
A technical layering item, Icebreaker Bodyfit / 260 short leggings are made of natural and sustainable wool for high-level breathability and odor control, demonstrating their record of 196 days of constant wear in extreme conditions holds up. ($75) German label Schiesser offers a multitude of base layer options, but we like their 3/4 Thermo Trousers for their quick-drying, microclimate fabric. Also low on odor, Schiesser pants will keep you warm without making you sweat and are machine washable for constant wear. (€36)
Made of moisture-wicking silk fabric, REI‘s classic long underwear bottoms are known for being lightweight and thin yet super warm. Soft to the touch and machine washable, they’re perfect for everyday wear. ($33) Like wearing another layer of fat that you can thankfully take off, SmartWool’s Microweight Long Underwear is next-to-skin comfortable and ultra warm thanks to its fine merino fabric. Chafe-free seams, anti-itch wool and a guarantee they won’t shrink with constant washing are all reasons they top our list this winter. ($65)
An even sportier offering from Nike, their Pro-Core Compression Speed Hyperwarm Tights feature mesh panels through the inner thigh and butt, keeping you warm and dry through carefully-placed ventilation and dri-fit polyester. A perfect fit that minimizes chafing and the dreaded “swamp ass,” these were as great on the soccer field as they were sitting at our desk all day. ($55) The Patagonia Capilene 1 Silkweight Bottoms ($45) are made using recycled bottles. While these are excellent, Patagonia’s lightweight merino bottoms are a more versatile choice and favorite of CH editor Tim Yu, designed for a wide range of activities. ($89) Uniqlo’s Heat-Tech long underwear claims to be a high-tech fabric that actually creates heat. We can’t vouch for that, but the acrylic, polyester, and rayon blend sure does keep you warm. Best part is they’re super thin, so they fit perfectly under your tightest jeans. ($15)
La marque Feiyue a donné carte blanche à deux membres du collectif artistique Span-Kidz pour leur dernier film. Une mise en avant de l’esprit Flying Forward avec cette paire de basket défiant les lois de l’apesanteur, en décollant d’une table. Un projet à découvrir dans la suite de l’article.

Pendleton and Nike team up on an ACG jacket designed to keep out some serious cold
For those who grew up borrowing their dad’s outerwear, the wooly warmth of this Big Jim jacket is going to feel cozily familiar. Made using dense Pendleton virgin wool, the material blocks icy chills while its “deconstructed” style means it layers well and is still lightweight enough for running around the city. Everything else about the piece—part of “Triple Black,” the latest collaboration to come from Pendleton and Nike’s outdoor division ACG—has a modern feel thanks to the ongoing partnership that combines Pendleton’s superior wool with Nike’s expertise in sportswear.
Resulting technical details add high function, like magnetic closures on pockets and waterproof zippers, that not only protects from the elements but makes for less fussing when you’re out and about. Other details like the removable hood (cut to fit perfectly), seams and shoulder patches reinforced with ripstop nylon, a storm flap on the collar, and minimal branding make this jacket a good choice for anyone who wants a classic look without sacrificing warmth.
While the jacket is designed for men, the cut is slim enough that it works for girls (with the sleeves rolled up). Get yours from
Nike for $400 or
Haven if you’re in Canada.
Zappos also has it on sale for $280 in limited sizes.
Dans la lignée du boîtier Le Cube for Canal+ conçu par Yves Béhar, voici cette réalisation du designer Philippe Starck pour la nouvelle box de l’opérateur français Free. Intitulé Freebox Révolution V6, elle est dotée d’un serveur NAS 250 go, d’un lecteur blu-ray et d’une manette.
Freebox Revolution, est disponible à partir du 1er janvier 2011.
