With the 7th edition of the L.O.C.K. Book we proudly present 116 Labels of Common Kin. Since Summer 2009, these kinfolks have been gathered season by season to demonstrate their get-together at the very right hangar of Berlin-Tempelhof. The atmosphere under the roof of this tough, historical monument is however friendly and warm. The mix of wooden antiques, industrial iron, rugged props and bright, clean stand constructions trans-fer this unique platform into a quality-driven meeting point of down-to-earth- people. Here, they exchange their pas-sion for product and details, elaborate collaborations, share their knowledge, run into friendships but never forget
to do business. Subsequently, strong and prosperous partnerships arise: the core for sustainable business and the mission statement of L.O.C.K. with its FIRE DEPT., the place for small col-lection ranges with a bold passion for goods. The bottom line of this unique community is the dedication and affin-ity to the product.
For those for whom the product comes first, we have focused the L.O.C.K. Book to become a garment tell-ing reference: each Label of Common Kin presents the iconic piece of its collection. Hence this unique telling proposition becomes a unique selling proposition, an appetizer for the recipi-ent to dive deeper into the philosophy

and awareness of its creators. This book of iconic references is a sub-sidiary guide for the buying and there-fore selling audience. It was compiled by our new L.O.C.K. members Jin and Stacy, who added their passion for products and experience in the industry to this development.

ing prosperous value to this authentic market place, partly unified in our Concept Room: Nippon. Here, the West finally encounters the East to combine pure craftsmanship with the passion for perfection and precision: quality at its purest. Enjoy exploring!

The patch: Our patches are made for us by our good friends at Tan-ner Goods, a leather goods company based in Portland, OR. We use heav-yweight natural tan english bridle leather that will age richly over time alongside the jeans: as the denim lightens, the patch darkens.
The waistband stitch: We utilize a continuous tucked chainstitch on our jean waistbands. Instead of termi-nating the chainstitch and finish-ing with a single needle, we run the chainstitch off the waistband and then tuck it in - this prevents the stitch from unraveling over time.
The denim: We work with Okayama-based Kuroki Mills to produce our own custom fabric that is exclusive to us. It is a 100% Zimbabwe cotton 14.5oz raw selvedge denim (7x6) with pure indigo dyed warp yarns.
12.
A Piece Of Chic is a French label of silk scarves made in France in a town called Lyon, where silk print-ing has been a tradition since the Renaissance. More than 80% of our cost of goods is generated by local artisans and manufacturers.
Our designs are mainly inspired by vintage patterns from the 1930’s to the 1960’s. Our inspiration comes from architecture, design, cars and motorbike cultures, music, cinema, history... We are not just printing colors on silk but telling stories!
We intend to inspire men and women to wear scarves like our grandpar-ents used to in the glorious ages when elegance was a lifestyle and a discipline.
14.
The Pocket: Dimension and distress revive this AG pocket. A lived-in, 3D look is achieved by AG’s vintage wash process. In this case, both la-sers and hand sanding create a worn pocket that has seemingly held life’s everyday contents for decades.
The Wash: The fabric of this 1960s-inspired jean was made in the USA in collaboration with Cone Denim, a leading denim fabric purveyor since 1891. From the whiskers to the faded thighs, this pair looks like it could have witnessed a social revolution, or at least Woodstock.
The Selvage: Made the traditional way, AG Selvage is crafted from superior, durable denim yarns on old-fashioned shuttle looms from the 1940s. The edges won’t fray like ordinary denim, and you can admire this with a flip of the cuff.
16.
Down Thermal Insulation: The word ‘Down’ comes from the old Norse word dūnn. Down is oldest and yet warmest, most lightweight and most packable source of insulation known to man. The FISHCOLD women’s Parka is lined with Diamond quilted, down-filled super soft nylon.
WINDSTOPPER® fabric: The FISH-COLD women’s parka is crafted us-ing GORE-TEx® WINDSTOPPER® fabric. Its special membrane offers soft, lightweight weather protection and maximum breathability to pro-tect against dampness or moisture penetrating the down insulation.
The Fishtail back: The original fish-tail parka was first used by the Unit-ed States Army. The name fishtail comes from the fact that the parka is longer at the back than it is at the front. This was originally so that the coat could be tied around the upper legs for added wind proofing. The FISHCOLD women’s parka takes a modern feminine twist on a classic vintage garment.
18.
Collar: Allevol have collaborated with Sunny Sports (shirting spe-cialist in Japan), utilising four dif-ferent fabrics, namely, white denim, oxford, chambray, herringbone, to create this 40s rail work shirt in-spired item. Behind the collar, white denim selvedge fabric is utilised for extra detail.
Triple stitch: The creamy and orange threads create a slight colour impact on the white shirting.
Front pocket: Asymmetrical pocket designs are commonly seen in 1910-40s American shirts/jackets. Here we have reinforced the utility and designed for everyday use.
20.
Andersen-Andersen’s most impor-tant mission is to produce and sell what is probably the world’s best sailor’s sweater. The Andersen-An-dersen Sailor Sweaters are developed in Denmark, knitted in Italy, and are worn by gentlemen all around the world.
The Sailor Sweater is made of 100% pure new wool, manufactured espe-cially for Andersen-Andersen.
The original sailor sweater from Andersen-Andersen has a conveni-ent hole for the thumbs hidden in the cuffs.
22.
The Background: The Armor lux heritage line is the essence of cloth-ing worn by fishermen brought to you in modern interpretation. Thus you are finding the Caban, the Bre-ton striped shirt, Fishermen smock and all types of Fishermen sweaters.
The Product: The Faux Smock sweat-er is inspired by the “faux smock” fishermean knot: a stable and flexible folded rope knot. This sweater is cre-ated with the same technique, which takes a long production time and an enormous amount of material, but the outcome is a very unique sweater made to resist.
The Marking: Like the Faux Smock sweater, all Heritage products fea-ture a special small batch with the anchor in reference to our origins, the sea and a hang tag explaining the historical background of each garment.
24.
Atelier 145 “Fi’s” Bag: This hand-carved leather bag is made from 100% vegetable tanned Italian hide. The unique artwork is done using a traditional tooling technique. Each shape that makes up the design is meticulously stamped on by hand us-ing special tools and hammer.
Stitching Line: The handles are hand stitched between the shell and the lining. This robust and hardwearing construction is reinforced with two brass rivets.
Lining: Inside the bag there is a large zip pocket and a leather strap closure. Here you can see the special two layer raw edge construction that is featured also on the handles.

The Tino Shape: This iconic shape comes directly from Hollywood in the Roaring 1920’s. Movie stars and oil mavens alike flocked to this easy and always flattering shape. Today, the modern Bailey® Man of Style feels exactly the same about the Tino.
The Finish: Our iconic Tino is the most famous in LiteFelt®, a propri-etary finish that provides indestruct-ible shape retention and water re-pellency. For 2013, we have the Tino in an elegant Polished Wool finish, providing a luxurious shine and feel.
The Colors: The Tino comes in a broad range of classic and trend colors. For AW2013, there are 10 colors in LiteFelt® and an additional 6 colors in Polished Wool.
28.
The Made in England label continues to be inspired by the iconic G9 and G4 jackets.
Modern materials, high craftsman-ship and outstanding details make the new collection fresh yet main-taining its classic elements.
Two new seasonal colours have been introduced to the new range: earthy brown and military green. Unique G9’s‚ and G4’s‚ have been created using the highest quality Italian leather, both including the Fraser tartan lining.
30.
Barbour’s Beacon Heritage collection introduces its partnership with Savile Row tailors Norton & Sons. Limited edition, the collection includes 8oz beeswax jackets made in South Shields, which are simply designed, well cut, and very sophisticated.
Inspired by the 1900s Barbour ar-chives, Beacon Heritage focuses on detail and design. Materials are key –– velvet collars, folded seam constructions, worn but-tons and original pea green linings give an authentic feel, yet the shape is modern.
Both brands are uncompromising in the quality of their construction and materials to create simple, well-proportioned garments. The leather inset in the pockets is a detail from the 1920s. Coastal Northumberland meets Savile Row.
32.
Hood: A removable hood, imme-diately reminding you that you’re wearing a special garment. The patented “Bark stitch” is always the main character, now well-known all over the world.
Frogs: The frogs give a classic fla-vour to the Bark Duffle Coat, in con-trast with the brand-new 27 colors, for a unique result: high casual out-erwear with strong identity, under-lined by the special logo pin.
Lining: Bark pays attention to de-tails. The technical nylon lining can satisfy the most demanding metro-politan audience that loves to move on wheels.
34.
B.D. Baggies, classic American button- down shirt brand, is now a collection that has been completely modernized in terms of style and product.
The classic button down, LEGEND in Oxford cotton, made of a 40 by 40 fabric, gently micro sanded for a gentle soft touch. The collar is Button Down the collections differ seasonally in the selection, always with a vast choice of patterns and prints.
The collection is designed in the USA, 100% pre-laundered cloth with lived-in look and an unmistakable appeal.
36.
Every item of the jackets has on the back the logo of the brand that as explained by its name – BPD Be Proud of this Dress – will make you proud to be wearing it.
The fashion folding model with the pocket on the back represents a foldable and resealable style. The authentic BPD item is pratical , ultra light and easily folds up to fit into a pocket.
The fabric used for the BPD Jackets is a Japanese 15 denier micro-rip, which guarantees maximum resist-ance while maintaining an extremely light consistency and unfailing the diamond motif designed.
38.
The Triple Stitching: The Eluart shirt is a strong example of Belle-rose’s reappropriation of utilitarian classics, genuine clothes and time-less menswear shapes. Featuring tri-ple stitching in a contrasting white thread, the shirt takes us back to the roots of authentic workwear and its emphasis on durability and strength.
The Japanese Cotton: Sourced and bought in Japan, the checked cotton is the result of a unique manufactur-ing process. Using vintage weaving machines from the 1940s, Japanese suppliers are the only ones who can still produce such materials. The slight uneven feel of the cotton re-flects the length of the actual weaving.
The Burnt Wood Buttons: Nature and the appeal of the outdoor life have always been a focus within the company’s collections. Each Bellerose garment has specific details and finishes, which add value to the piece. The burnt wood but-tons used on the Eluart shirt were developed exclusively for the brand.
40.
Side: RARE is BIG JOHN’s flagship model that features supreme quality Japanese denim we developed with pride, and ultimate minimal design. The longer you wear them, the more they reflect who you are. This worn-out pair shows how personalized they can be.
Leather Reinforcement: If you ex-amine RARE, you’ll find unique de-tails that make RARE so durable. For example, the back of the buttons and rivets are reinforced with indigo dyed deer skin. Using deer skin is a traditional method of reinforcement in Japan.
Top Button: The Legendary BIG JOHN’s “Craftsman Mark” incised on the front button represents our company credo “QUALITY COMES FIRST” and guarantees the supreme quality of the product. The button is made of steel that will age to add a vintage look over the years.
42.
The police jacket is the Blauer his-torical jacket that represents the original jacket of the American po-lice. It is presented in taslan, the fab-ric is finished with a water resistant treatment, and is coated on the back side with a polyurethane resin, the coating is done in order to give the fabric a hard hand-feel, the inner is detachable.
The loop reminds of the badge hold-ers on the uniforms of the American police.
The cuff can be turned on the exter-nal part on which a refractive fabric is applied that guarantees visibility and security also during the night.
44.
The Repi jeans are named after the architect Renzo Piano from Genoa, who has designed the harbour of Genoa and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. The jeans play a big role in the Blue de Gênes collection. It has a great, slim fit and some special details. This model is made in spe-cial Italian black denim with a great wash. Everything is made in Italy.
The coin pocket is deliberately placed on the wrong side. It is a blasphemous mistake, but it works. The pocket is reinforced with leather and the branded rivets are made in the old-fashioned style. The crest rivet is a symbol of quality and originality.
The back pockets have hidden rivets inside for reinforcement like jeans used to have a hundred years ago. The pockets are also reinforced in-side with an extra layer of fabric.
46.
Sack Suit: “The Number One” was in-
spired by the college students’ trend
to press back the lapels of their old
jackets. With its trim, natural shoul-
der, undarted front, and non-func-
tional third button, the Number One
“Sack” dominated American business
attire for the first 60 years of the
20th century.
The Original Button-Down Polo-
Shirt: When John E. Brooks noticed
that English Polo players’ collars are
buttoned down so as to prevent their
flapping in the wind, he brought his
discovery back to Brooks Brothers:
the Button-Down shirt was born, a
Brooks classic, known as “the most
imitated item in fashion history”.
Repp Tie: The British-inspired repp
stripe tie is known for its signature
stripes and vibrant colors. Originally
associated with famous regiments of
the British Army, prestigious univer-
sities and clubs, this collegiate neck-
tie offers a look of refinement re-
flective of our heritage. All expertly
woven in England.
48.
Versatile Roll-Top Closure: The
Pickwick is a versatile canvas roll-
top backpack, whose design comple-
ments the ease that epitomises an
urban journey by bicycle. The clos-
ing strap also forms a convenient
carry handle.
Adjustable Twin Shoulder Straps:
The Pickwick features twin shoul-
der straps that can be fastened
across the chest for a secure fit
whilst riding.
Waterproof Zips: Made in Italy from
water-resistant canvas and genuine
Brooks leather details, the Pickwick
features two inward facing pockets,
completed with waterproof zips for
added security and a slick, minimal-
ist appearance.

ric will be most typical of Brown’s
Beach Jacket. Especially this fabric
combines with cotton 27% and wool

tradition and innovation, a new di-
rection resulting from a fusion of
different cultures, where the word
“Line” stands for a line of thought
and conduct, as well as the selvage
line, the distinctive feature of the

The iconic Carhartt CO1 Chore Coat
was advertised for the first time in
1923 and instantly became a key part
of the Carhartt U.S workwear col-
lection, with the fundamental design
remaining largely unchanged to this
day. The square label has become
synonymous with Carhartt products
over the years.
Hamilton Carhartt soon found out
that the double stitch just wasn’t
durable enough for his products,
so he quickly developed the triple
stitch seam for extra support and
strength. Staying true to his ideals,
Carhartt WIP continues to use this
technique on garments throughout
the collection.
A nonessential detail for such a clas-
sic workwear piece, the corduroy
collar provides comfort and warmth
while remaining hardwearing on an
otherwise rugged piece.

Leather: The tanneries are located
in HIMEJI HYOgO, that has more
than 1000 years history. It is chrome
tanned with pure water from the
ICHI river. The result: the leather
is durable, tough and soft. The more
it is used, the softer the surface be-
comes.
Edge finishing: The edge of the veg-
etable tanned leather handles and
straps are shaped and polished by
skilled craftsmen’s hand. They re-
peat the same process at least three
times to get the ideal result. When
you hold the bag, the touch is smooth
and soft.
Softness: For its 2mm thickness, the
leather is quite soft. The used 40cm
wide leather for the shell is very light
for its width. The supple surface will
look even better with age. Over time,
it takes on its own character.

grading Leather: The only way to
ensure the quality of a Danner boot
is to ensure the quality of the ma-
terials we use. That’s why every
hide of leather is graded through
a series of six tests, which check
for the leather’s strength, flexibility,
durability and blemishes.
Portland, Oregon: Years ago guilds
were established to protect the tradi-
tions of a craft. And while guilds may
be a thing of the past, traditions are
not. One of Danner’s oldest traditions
is crafting boots out of Portland, Or-
egon. And we are proud to say that
we have not only been protecting this
tradition for over 80 years but have
ensured that this tradition contin-
ues on by doubling the size of our
workshop.
gORE-TEX Liners: In 1932 the
first Danner boot was made. Years
later, Danner became the first
bootmaker to use gORE-TEX
liners. We consider this setting the
standards, not just meeting them.

Labels: The Godhead patch used in poplin and leather bears the com-pany’s true signature. EVISU cat-egorizes its raw denim according to the different intensity of pre-shrink processing and its place of origin. Raw denim is classified into No.1, No.2 and No.3.
Selvage: EVISU denim is made on narrow shuttle looms. Modern looms, made to mass-produce denim, shoot each thread individually repetitively, hence the fraying imitators use unat-tractive chain stitching to mimic the selvage. EVISU selvage is usually red and white, it denotes the true authen-ticity of the production process.
Pocket: The back pocket seagulls are the ultimate symbol of crafts-manship and detail that go into the creation of EVISU jeans.
84.
The Materials: Our Original Brief-case has been modified with Harris Tweed panels under the top flap and against the front panel. As always, it is built with our signature ³Rugged Twill,³ a 22 oz., heavy twill with an oil finish in 100% cotton. The oil fin-ish makes the bag water repellant; the 22 oz. twill makes the bag inde-structible and provides a production challenge only met with the heavy gauge needles and know-how in our very own Filson factory.
The Pockets: Built to carry and or-ganize, there are two full-length open pockets on the inside and sewn-on compartments for calcula-tor, business cards, pencils and pens allow easy access and organization.
The Twist: We have reversed the front bridle leather tab snap so that it is easier to close and secure the front patch pocket.

Collar and Top Button: The Fred Perry shirt - sharp, clean and practi-cal was the perfect accompaniment to the late 1950s fledgling mod move-ment; this sports piece looked styl-ish worn under mohair suits & three button jackets. An item of choice for youth tribes since, attention to detail remains key. Button up, collar down.
Laurel Wreath: Formed in 1952 by British tennis legend Fred Perry, the Laurel Wreath- a historic symbol of sporting excellence was the perfect emblem to represent a man who rose from humble beginnings to conquer Wimbledon three times. The icon represents an enduring relationship between youth culture and brand.
Tipping: In the late 1950s the com-pany began receiving requests from major department stores to add be-spoke tipping colours to the white shirts, marking Fred Perry as the first cross over brand from sports-wear to streetwear. Many of the col-our combinations and the original tipping pattern still remain today.

THE DIAMOND STAMP: A tribute to our past. In 1927 Bernard Gant started the Gant family business in New Haven, Connecticut. The com-pany manufactured shirts on a sub-contractor basis. A special quality mark was made by stamping each shirt with a ”G”. Many customers ended up going for the ”G” rather than the official label.
THE LOCKER LOOP: Below the col-lar on the back is the locker loop. In the ‘60s, when a Yale guy was go-ing steady, he removed the loop as a sign that he was taken – his girl would wear his college scarf. Below the locker loop is the box pleat for freedom of movement. The neck but-ton on the back of the collar keeps the tie and collar in place.
THE BUTTON DOWN: A big thing with the GANT shirt was the but-ton-down collar. Originally a Brit-ish innovation, the button-down was designed to keep the collars from getting in your face during polo matches. The style was immensely hip in the early ‘50s, GANT was the first to introduce a button-down shirt on a larger scale on the US market.

The back of the Avro is typical of art deco styles of the 1930s with a shell back pleating. Because the bi-swing back was not developed until WW 2, the Avro has a centre expansion gusset down the middle back to al-low for ease of forward arm move-ment. Additional underarm gussets aided movement.
The labels and liners of the Avro jacket are as authentic to original 1930s jackets as possible. The liner is Nova Scotia tartan flannel, and the interior pocket, kidney, armpit and cuffs are reenforced with buf-falo leather.
The Avro has an open collar and closed collar configuration with chinstrap to keep the wind out on cold days. The main zipper closure on the jacket is a Made in Japan rep-lica 1930s grommet zipper complete with early period C clamp top stops. Hand-cut pull tabs with spots allow for gloved operation.

An tlascaire (The Fisherman).INIS MEÁIN is a company inspired by a great tradition of Aran knitting. The company is constantly looking to the huge repertoire of the island knitters. This season the inspiration is from a simple 100 year old fisher-man’s pattern. A jersey knit sweater with a zig-zag patterned yoke.
Often islanders spent over 12 hours fishing in open Atlantic conditions in their curachs (symbol of our brand) or canoes with little sustenance ex-cept for some bread and salted fish and just a hand knitted sweater for warmth, which was regularly soaked in the constant sea spray.
This version is a neat shape that is easily pulled over the head as it has 4 horn buttons inserted in a shoulder placket for easy pulling on and off. The pattern is repeated twice in the sleeve for a extra decoration, and of course for luck, on the fishing trip. Island fishermen are notoriously su-perstitious!

This AW13 collaboration with Eddie Bauer has been inspired by the 50th anniversary of the National geo-graphic and the first Everest Summit by Americans in 1963. The figure-head of the collection is Jim Whit-taker, the first American to summit Everest.

“Whatever Weather” THE MARINE: We have wanted to make this for some time, and it started when we found an old 1940s pattern for this piece of knitwear.This garment was originally hand knitted by wives, mothers & girl-friends for their men serving on the cold north Atlantic convoys during World War 2. We hand knitted the first prototype to see what the fit and feel would be like. Next, we altered its length to accommodate to lower jeans and trouser worn by today’s men.
The result is a finer gauge jumper than the Submariner with a slimmer fit, more suitable to wear under a suit jacket or wear in the spring and au-tumn as well as the winter. The North Sea Clothing collection may be small but this select range of British-made knitwear lovingly recreates some much-loved iconic clothing.
The Marine shawl collared cable knit made in England: 100% pure new British wool shawl collar with brass shank anchor button, elon-gated ribbed hem and cuffs.

The original “Elephant Skin” fabric dates back to the Industrial Revolu-tion in the late 19th century. Manual laborers such as welders, carpenters and mechanics favored the strong and durable, yet comfortable “El-ephant Skin”.
As back then, our “Elephant Skin” is made in Germany to the former standards and with the same for-mula, which has not changed over a century. Only by choosing the original German fabric we are able to use the basic ingredient for the most authentic traditional European workwear series available.
The name “Elephant Skin” was cho-sen due to the fact that although it consists of 100% organic cotton, the fabric shares the same character-istics as real leather. Due to the construction our “Elephant Skin” is very abrasion resistant, rugged and is even capable of withstanding welding sparks.

The boots are handcrafted in two stages; the shaft, the insole and the leather welt are stitched together using the “Goodyear” seam. And then the welt and outsole are stitched to-gether using the welt seam. This al-lows the foot to breath and adapts the insole for perfect fit.

The combination of a great con-struction, carefully picked details and trimmings are the key to get a throughout well made and long last-ing product. The boots are long last-ing in both condition and style, clas-sic models with great quality that survive trends and years of using.
