Hi, I’m Mitchell, and this is Brass Tacks Provisions.

Men’s clothing stores - specifically heritage Americana - are kind of far and few in between. Then narrow that to Oklahoma and Oklahoma City. That offering isn’t very large.

You see stores specializing in suiting or big box stores or western vintage or athleisure. You don’t see American manufactured, new and vintage western and workwear, and heritage styles. 

Larger and micro brands also deserve a spotlight. Large isn’t really large. It can still be pretty unknown, which makes micro incredibly obscure.

I wanted to change that. We will and will continue to.

SUMMER LINGERS, STEINBECK SURGES—

Last few days have felt more like summer, so not too late to share another shot taken by @maxsnapsphotos on our recent visit to beautiful Beacon, New York. It was an incredibly memorable afternoon, the first time I had connected with Max outside NYC. I wish I could tell you which camera Max used, but my memory for photographic gear is pretty weak.

It’s lovely to be back in the country after an insanely over-scheduled week. But it all went off without a hitch, and I am just a bit proud feeling that I am doing a much better job than I used to managing stress. Has taken me a long while to figure out that complaining about being busy only adds to the frustration, and the best way to get through such times is to prioritize what’s in front of you and tick off one thing on your to-do list at a time. Simple, right?

Last night I started watching the new Netflix series based on John Steinbeck’s ā€œEast of Eden.ā€ Have you heard about it? Over the past year many book feeds that I follow have placed this novel at the top of the list of America’s best literature. Is it THE great American novel? It certainly has a claim to that title. It touches on all the mythology that underpins the American identity, but also the violence and secrets that lie beneath the surface. 

Steinbeck has long been one of my favorite writers — ā€œGrapes of Wrathā€ is one of the most heartbreaking works ever set to paper, and it had a big impact on me — and I suspect I may eventually re-read ā€œEast of Edenā€ā€”it would be my third time. My buddy @swoosh_n_boots is on a Steinway kick at the moment: do you plan to watch the series, Juan?

If you have your pick for ā€œThe Great American Novel,ā€ please drop it in the comments below!

I didn’t know you had to own the oil field to dress like a cowboy. Outfit 3’s sport coat alone is wild… Which fit is your favorite: 1, 2, or 3? Drop the next menswear spot I should get styled at! @thehatstoretx
