You already know that your appearance can make the difference in both your business and your social life. You’ve discovered the value of well-made and custom tailored clothing with novel accessories to match, but have you considered your shoes? Bspo-ken thinks you should and to assist you we now carry a line of shoes from Scarpe di Bianco; handmade classic shoes with a twist for the modern man.

You know the drill; Oxfords and Monk Straps for those important meetings, Brogues and Bluchers for those slightly less formal occasions or tooling around the office, loafers for business casual or strictly casual affairs, Spectators for those jazzy events or the golf course, and finally the Chukka boot when you’re all out relaxing. Though these shoes can be purchased anywhere, the Scarpe di Bianco line has an edge on everyone else; their shoes are each handmade and hand tooled with the finest materials. Their collection is more than functional... it is art, so much so that only 25 shoes are produced per day.

You’ve chosen to have your suits and clothing custom made, and even if you haven’t, why skimp on the shoes? After all, you can hide your suit with an overcoat but your shoes? They are visible all the time. That is why we chose to offer the Scarpe di Bianco collection. They are constructed with the finest materials and extraordinary attention to detail, and better yet, unlike the mainstream shoe you can purchase, they are styled with contemporary colors to make you, and your clothing, stand out from the crowd.

In addition to their elegant look, this collection is known for its outstanding craftsmanship. These shoes aren’t glued together as are many off-the-shelf shoes, but are painstakingly hand-sewn with an emphasis on detail. They are made of the finest sourced leather with grains to match the style; “Scotch grain,” “box calf,” “reverse calf’ suede, “sport suede,” South American Crocodile, American Alligator and “patent leather.” No matter your style, event or occasion, there is a shoe that will make you and your apparel the talk of the town.

Clients of B'SPO-KEN have come to appreciate our tireless effort and our commitment to new and amazing styles and fashion innovation that ensures they are always the best dressed in the room.  We also appreciate the efforts made by our international vendors, new and old, that assist us in this endeavor.

Eton of Sweden is one of those vendors and they have just announced an updated Eton brand and have improved their stock service. They have created an impressive method and have provided their exclusive stylists, including B'SPO-KEN, to work with their clients using their newly released 2016 Collection Books

The New Eton

As you might have noticed, the Eton brand has been through a reinvention. Spring/Summer 2016 reveals a new Eton with a fresh brand platform that clearly illustrates our new and improved direction. We have updated our logo, store concept, brand colors and packaging. And last but not least, we have renewed our most recognized and valued asset - the Eton Stock Service.

We have separated the books by assortment to give the buyer, store staff and end consumer a more easy-to-understand approach to the Eton Stock Service.

Eton Collection

The Eton Collection book includes shirts with our unique, crease resistant finish. All Eton Collection shirts from the SS16 delivery will have the new Eton blue ribbon in the collar. The book is divided in six parts: super slim, slim, contemporary, classic fit, French cuff and extra long sleeve.

Eton Green Collection

In the Eton Green book, you will find shirts made from soft touch materials such as denim, linen, Oxford and flannel. These shirts have been washed and they also have a softer interlining in collar and cuff for a more casual style.

Eton Accessories Collection

The accessories book is filled with timeless and classic ties, pocket squares, scarves and evening accessories. We have also added best sellers and a range of fun and unique styles for those who want to give their look a further personalized touch.

Eton MTM Collection

We have not only made a new, separate Made-to-Measure book, we have also simplified the Eton Made-to-Measure concept. In six short steps you can help your customer find the perfect fit and look, just for them.

Eton Evening Collection

The Evening book has been divided by body fit for an even better overview of the available options. We have also added information about the different shirts to make sure no details are missed out in the party preparations.

The 'Peace' Suit

Posted On: December 09, 2013
B'SPO-KEN takes great pride in our relationships with the worlds best suit designers and fabric manufacturers. We've just heard about The Peace Suit from Scabal Fabrics and would like to share this information with our clients.

FROM THE DESK OF THE PRESIDENT OF SCABAL

We are all rightly concerned about the worldwide economic and financial crisis, but that should not make us forget the misery in many other parts of our planet, such as war, violence, poverty, epidemics, lack of medical assistance and starvation.

We have always been very impressed by the organization Médecins sans Frontières/Doctors without Borders, in which doctors strive, in very dangerous conditions, often risking their own lives in military conflicts and disease, to build up medical services for people who live in the most abhorrent conditions.

Therefore, Scabal has decided to create a special fund and choose Médecins sans Frontières to benefit from it. In all our discussions with people who work in the social area, it appears that the sine qua non for improvement is PEACE and respect for human beings.

For this unique cloth, Scabal will make a contribution of €50 per metre and the funds collected will be transferred to a special account for Médecins sans Frontières.

B'SPO-KEN uses Scabal Fabrics. Be sure to call (718) 351-3256 to schedule your next personal styling appointment and learn more about our custom suit designs.

Scabal 2012-2013 Custom Suit Fabrics

Posted On: December 09, 2013

Scabal Custom Suit Fabric 1

Scabal Custom Suit Fabric 851670

Only the finest, longest and brightest cashmere fibres are chosen to create this impressively smooth N°851670 fabric. It belongs to the exclusive Loch Fyne range, offering designs with predominant beige, brown and blue checks, herringbones or plain attractive shades. They all emphasize the natural elegance of Loch Fyne's luxury 100% cashmere qualities. A true must-explore collection for every dandy-aesthete who sees life as an art project, and style as an imperative.

Collection: Loch Fyne (dressing gown) and Flannel (smoking N° 500207)
Design: Dressing gown with a smoking underneath

Scabal Custom Suit Fabric 2

Fabric 752363

No better cloth than fabric N° 752363 to do the job. This exquisite featherweight is the highlight of Scabal's exquisite “Toison d'Or” range. Made from classic Super 150s wool weighing barely 260 grammes, the cloth has a fabulous handle and smoothness much-praised by connoisseurs. Its refined design and lustrous finishing add a glamorous touch that will ginger up any business meeting.

Collection: Toison d’Or
Design: Suit in bright navy blue checks

Scabal Custom Suit Fabric 3

Fabric 801695

This soft, pure woollen quality belongs to Scabal’s “Gallery” collection. It is made of a heavier 340-gramme woollen yarn for a silhouette full of strength and volume. A fleecy finishing and an elegant tartan pattern turn it into the perfect leisure jacket. Other Gallery cloths range up to 420-gramme pure wool to blends with cashmere or cotton, all presented in country-inspired designs. These highly comfortable qualities will provide for elegance and shelter.

Collection: Gallery
Design: Jacket & Trousers

Scabal Custom Suit Fabric 4

Fabric 852161

Scabal's luxurious cashmere

This warm but light worsted quality from the “Romance” collection is simply exceptional. Its origins lie in the Himalayan mountains where the best and most exclusive cashmere is made, very different from the standard ones found on the market. Only the longest, finest and whitest underbelly hairs of cashmere goats are selected, and tightly spun into ultra-fine yarns. The resulting jacket is blessed with a lovely drape and a magnificent natural sheen, unique to Scabal cashmere.

Collection: Romance
Design: Jacket in light grey window-pane checks (orange/blue details)

Scabal Custom Suit Fabric 5

Fabric 703167

Fabric N°703167 from the “Cortina” collection is perfectly suited for this double purpose. Made from a 280-gramme extrafine merino wool, this pure quality will enrobe you with warmth without feeling ponderous. Its ultra-soft finishing results from Scabal's traditional milling process; its pleasant flannel feeling from a prolonged scouring treatment. The modern glencheck pattern adds a lot of flair, which contrasts nicely with the fabric's classic, alpine feel.

Collection: Cortina
Design: Suit in grey glencheck with blue overcheck

Scabal Custom Suit Fabric 6

Scabal Custom Suit Fabric N°703235

A heavier English weave made from a 360-gramme strong, pure winter wool. This traditional quality is rare to find nowadays, and harmonizes perfectly with a timeless design. Scabal's “Classics” collection offers a rich variety to choose from, from a birdseye weave full of character to twill woven herringbones, stripes or checks. A dream collection for connoisseurs who value artisanal tradition more than anything else.

Collection: The Classics
Design: Birdseye weave

Some of the most successful men in the world have been fitted and style by B'SPO-KEN's founder and fashion expert, Ken Booras. If you already have a B'SPO-KEN custom suit then you already know the feeling. If not, schedule your appointment and join them.
