Product Kudos to Starbucks Via™

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Every once in a while we stumble across products that so simply and naturally fill a void in the marketplace, that we did not realize the void had been there until that new product arrived. We have to take a moment to comment on what a great product we think Starbucks VIA™ Ready Brew is. It is only available in Seattle, Chicago, and London right now, but it is in our mind the first truly great cup of instant coffee. It tastes like freshly brewed from your favorite barista.

Imagine the convenience of taking these small packs on the road with you to enjoy that great cup of coffee wherever you travel. It’s made with the highe-quality 100% arabica beans in a proprietary, all-natural process.

We like to think Road fills that void in men’s fashion by providing men with clothes that are extremely comfortable and stylish at the same time and don’t require a lot of thinking and effort to wear. Extreme comfort, ease of coordinating, and I look great all the time, perfect.

Road Featured in Seattle Magazine Best of Shopping 2008

Sunday, August 10th, 2008

Recently, Seattle Magazine recognized Road as  one of the best shops in the Seattle area.  In the catagory of “Best Shop for Boomers Looking for Color” Road won hands down.  In the article, which can be found here, Road receives high praise:

“At this relaxed shop, where all clothing is Road’s own label, life is in the details—particularly those of their woven shirts ($88–$135), made of richly hued, patterned and sometimes embroidered fabrics, terrific over the perfect layering piece: their super-soft Ultimate T ($58), available in a dozen colors. Road’s own newly created denim line comes in ultracomfortable Lyocell Lux fabric (better known by the brand name Tencel, $108), Earthwash (imparting a brown tone, $125) and classic blue-hued stonewash with suede-trimmed pockets ($88–$98).”

Thank you Seattle Magazine, for recognizing good style when you see it.
