Alex Delany is a writer, editor, cook, wine drinker, DJ, music consultant, book salesman … and the kind of person who makes juggling all of it look easy. He lives in Manhattan, hails from Philly, and can often be found playing records at 51 Orchard St during (or after) store hours.

We’ve admired Tejesta’s attention to form and detail since Tal met the founders by chance on a sunny day in NYC many summers ago. After carrying the Miami eyewear brand in-store for years, our collaboration came together naturally. This spring, we released a limited capsule including a new take on their signature Dixon frame.

Founded by Yuria Kailich and Joel Harding, Item:Enso is a Brooklyn-based studio deeply rooted in process and built slowly, piece by piece. Yuria and Joel share our passion for crafting everything by hand here in New York, with a focus on reclaimed materials, in their case guided by the feel of clay, slate, or steel in its raw form.
