Sid Mashburn

Sid Mashburn, whose shop I have been interested in since an introduction by Mr. Castleberry, has just launched his online shop today which features a nice set of illustrations on the front page.. a nice down to earth touch. Among the selection of shirts, trousers, bermuda shorts, and other Southern prep staples I was pleased to find accessories like Russell Moccasin shoes, Filson bags, and handsome little Laguiole pocket knives. Read on for a kit made from Sid’s offerings.
