Coming out of retirement: so hot right now.
At the end of last season Brett Favre bade his beloved game in Green Bay farewell–supposedly for good. But now he spends Sundays aiming his cannon-arm at Laveranues Coles and Jerricho Cotchery of the New York Jets.
Activist and super-athlete Lance Armstrong bowed out of professional cycling three years ago after changing the sport forever. Turns out he was only catching his breath; he announced last week that he’s training to tackle the tour again in 2009.
Which brings us to the mint juleps, our beloved lightweight cords in soft green. They haven’t been available since April and are back by popular demand! Our juleps may not be able to fire a pigskin missile like Brett or inspire the world like Lance, but with our signature fit and a gentle stretch, these guys are perfect for any feat of urban athleticism. Paired with a white Oxford and navy blazer, the juleps take business casual into stunning new territory. Or dress ‘em down, with a t-shirt and sandals. Like their namesake cocktail, our mint juleps fit in perfectly anywhere class and comfort commingle.


thanks!

scott- to answer your question this is the exact same corduroy as the new turqs, BWBs, and orange crush… and for the record the same fabric is used on the spider fighters and the pink panthers.
rock them brother!
