If there was ever a guy who "makes the kind of clothes he'd want to wear," it's Epaulet's Mike Kuhle. We ran into him last week and he was wearing an impressive quilted, double-breasted sport coat. Of course, we asked him where he got it. He explained that it's Epaulet's private label and was the product of a couple of meetings with a high-end Italian manufacturer of quilted sport coats, and it's pretty much Kuhle's dream jacket. Made from Valtherm "White Bear" Technical Wool, a cloth that offers breathability, insulation and a high-level of water resistance, it also fits like a dream. It's a major investment of course, but with formal details like a peaked lapel, 6 x 2 button configuration and double vents, it just might be the only sport coat you need this season.
