I’ve been fortunate enough to have a few events in my time working as Corter Leather leave me speechless. I can honestly say this one will be hard to beat.
The folks at Magic, the biggest fashion tradeshow in the western hemisphere, have invited me and the Corter Van to help represent American manufacturing in Las Vegas during their August show. I’ll be finishing up the van and driving across the country, where I’ll be parking the van ON the Sourcing floor, surrounded by the biggest clothing manufacturers in the world.
I’m not going there to find retail accounts. I’m not dressing up, and I’m not printing pamphlets. I’m going to Magic to produce at full capacity right there on the show floor out of my workshop-on-wheels. I’m going to talk about my process and how I run Corter, and I’m excited to show people that making things in America is not only possible, it’s a beautiful way to do business at any scale.
The Road to Magic starts now!

WIWT - 5/2/13 - New MTM Linen Cutaway from Cottonwork
If someone financed ten made to measure white linen shirts for me to wear every single day of the summer, I would really appreciate that. I’ve worn this new linen cutaway from Cottonwork three times, and the fabric is so soft and breezy. I’ve always appreciated linen, but I really want to snag a few more shirts for this summer.
The cut and collar of Cottonwork’s linen shirt is fantastic. The collar is a perfect cutaway, and along with the cuffs, is incredibly soft and comfortable. The shirt fits beautifully, leaving a little room for ventilation. I look for a shirt that fits a tiny bit looser for the summer months, and this one achieves that while still flattering the contours of my upper body. As I do with all my MTM shirts, I opted for a pocket and double button cuffs here.
If you’re looking for a solid MTM linen shirt for the summer, I’d recommend this one. It’s a fantastic cut, and it’s under a hundred bucks.
