Gentlemen's Sale: The Andrews and The Piper
By REDD
3/13/2010 2:22:00 PM  
As we roll out new colors and products, we want to make sure that you don't miss out on some of our older offerings at REDD. Two styles in particular, while discontinued, are still available for purchase through our website—both at a bargain rate. Gentlemen, we give you The Andrews and The Piper:

REDD - The Andrews in SalmonREDD - The Piper in Kelly Green/Lilac
The Andrews, on the left, comes in our generous Sporting Fit with a self-fabric collar and open sleeves. Featuring a right chest pocket flap and a four button placket with a box stitch, The Andrews is the perfect garment for a gentleman to relax in, whether out on the town with his family and friends, or by the poolside with a Bloody Mary. Formerly $105, The Andrews is now for sale for just $84, and comes in Twilight, Kelly Green, Sky, and Salmon.


The Piper, on the right, also features our Sporting fit with a three button placket and a bold color stripe along the collar and sleeves. Having been named for a notorious playboy friend of Robert Redd's , The Piper is perfect for the gentleman with a high-rolling, reckless streak—drives fast cars, dives off cliffs, you name it. Down from $90 at just $72, The Piper comes in Twilight/Tomato, Kelly Green/Lilac, Virginia Blue Sky/Robin's Egg, White/Tomato and Maize/Twilight.


Both shirts, like all of our other knit offerings, are made with 100% Peruvian Pima Cotton.

Wonderful Classic and Vintage Valentine's Day Ads
By Jake
2/9/2010 12:35:00 PM  
We're fans of many things classic and vintage, and we've recently had Valentine's day on the mind at the REDD office. These two interests recently convergred when I discovered a  collection of old Valentine's day print advertisments from the 1940s - 1960s using Vintage Ad Browser.

Below you'll see advertisments from Coca-Cola, Whitman's, Tiffany & Co., and Kreml Hair Tonic. By and large I feel like the ads aren't terribly surprizing: Coke plays it safe, Tiffany is somewhat reverved and stuffy, Kreml plays to the humor inherent to selling hair tonic. The Whitman's sampler ad feels the most racey of all, as it seems to suggest that a gentleman should give a sampler size box to all the girlfriends that he presumably has... REDD approves!
