Preppy Plaid Apparel

The Pendleton 2011 Fall/Winter Collection for Men Combines Unlikely Styles

— June 9, 2011 — Fashion
The Pendleton 2011 Fall/Winter collection for men draws inspiration from classic preppy style and Native American tribal patterns. The release is called the Portland Collection and was designed by Nathaniel Crissman, Rachel Turk and John Blasioli.

The Pendleton 2011 Fall/Winter collection covers all the basics of cold weather apparel including jackets, buttons-ups, scarves, slim-leg chino pants and cardigans. The designers covered the pieces in a variety of tribal-like patterns boasting a color palette of warm autumn shades. In addition to the preppy and tribal qualities, the Pendleton 2011 Fall/Winter collection is also infused with a hint of lumberjack-esque styles as plaid shirts and jackets are worn with the other pieces. The collection exhibits some of the most popular classic styles of North America and will keep men looking great and feeling cozy when the cold weather hits.
