There’s something undeniably sexy about the rugged, masculine, seafaring ethos to designer Alex Carleton’s line Rogues Gallery. J.Crew senior menswear designer Frank Muytjens wanted a piece of it earlier this year, tapping Carleton to create a limited edition run of nautical T’s for the retailer.
Now Carleton is teaming up with John Bartlett, one of the industry’s unabashed worshippers of all things testosterone. On Wed, the duo debuts RGJB, a holiday capsule collection with 1970s leather bar graphic T-shirts (graphic in every sense of the word, perhaps?), along with gym bags, thermals, and, wait for it … log carriers. We don’t live in Maine, but perhaps it’ll be perfect for toting a Duraflame back from a trip to Pavilions. 
Awaiting word from Mr. Bartlett as to whether the collection will be available via his online store. — Paul Dexter
