    Short Sleeve Henleys + Inspired Pairings

    Pistol Lake Cotton Short Sleeve Henley

    As things begin to (cautiously) open up around the world, we’re here to provide some much-needed summertime gear.

    That’s right! This week, our Cotton Short Sleeve Henleys are knockin’ at your door – from six feet away, of course.

    These Henleys were given sleek sleeve hems, unique raglan seams, and a three-button placket. Or, in other words, all the perks and vintage look of our long-armed cotton classic – just without the extra fabric.

    Made from 100% organic cotton, they’re restocked in the core colors of Black, Charcoal, and Burgundy

    Here’s how we’re planning to pair our outfits this summer – so, if you’re feeling inspired, hit the shop and grab one for yourself!

    Alert: A Cotton Henley Surprise!

    Pistol Lake Cotton Henley

    Surprise – our Cotton Henleys are officially stocked up in the core shades of Black, Charcoal, and Relic White! 

    The Cotton Henley is one of Pistol Lake’s first-ever creations and its successes paved the way for our future forays into Eudae. Like trading cards or vinyl records, we’ve even had a few people admit that they’re proud collectors and constantly hunt for the new Henleys in every color! 

    Sewn from 100% organic cotton, these threads are designed to provide long-lasting comfort -- even after putting it through your daily routines (and hopefully the washer) hundreds of times. 

    The best part? You can mix and match them with just about anything in your wardrobe. Or check out our favorite pairings below, selected by our very own team.

    They're Here... The One-Bag Polo

    Pistol Lake One-Bag Polo

    A while back, we let you know about the pre-sale of our One-Bag Polo.

    But in order to actually release them, we wanted to reach a threshold that would guarantee Pistol Lake wasn’t creating unnecessary waste. 

    Today, we’re super stoked to announce that we beat our minimum requirement and realized how excited our community was for a shirt like this. Thus, we made the decision to sew some extras up for those that originally missed out.

    Now available in Navy, Burgundy, and Hunter, the time to shine has finally arrived.

    The One-Bag Polo inherited everything you love about the One-Bag Henley – like its ability to wick away moisture, dry quickly, and stay odor-resistant. But we couldn’t just duplicate any run-of-the-mill Polo, however, so we gave it our own minimalist touch. 

    Relieved of buttons and fashioned with a light collar fusing, this shirt will always stand up without looking stiff or rippled. Not to mention, of course, the One-Bag Polo is crafted from Eudae, our ultra-soft proprietary fabric that often becomes a favorite of anyone who touches it. 

    Snag a polo, grab some sun, and stay safe,

    Pistol Lake Pivot: The How + Why Of Face Masks

    Pistol Lake Face Masks

    ***

    Over the past two months, Pistol Lake has made some radical changes. At first, we were making face masks to support frontline healthcare workers. Then as the ever-evolving process changed again, we made them available to the general public as well. 

    These days, we're often asked: Sure, you made face masks, but how? Given the circumstances, it was a challenge – but one that our team, including CEO Ryan Light, was game for.

    Detailed for a new piece titled COVID-19 Edition: Pistol Lake Re-Tools Warehouse to Make Much Needed Masks on Social Starts, Light recounted the company journey through a complicated March and April.

    "In the first week, knowing what to make, how to make it, who to make it for, and who wanted/needed it specifically was a confusing mess. We took to Twitter, Reddit, Slack channels, Facebook, got email intros, made cold phone-calls, you name it! All to answer the question: 'Exactly what should we be making and for who?'" 

    If you're the type of human that loves behind-the-scenes looks, this one is for you.

    Overwhelmingly, the overall response has been incredible – not only with the face masks but to our site-wide sale back in March as well. To say that our community saved numerous jobs would be a vast understatement. We feel extremely lucky to have a group of collective rockstars behind us, both near and far – so thank you, thank you, thank you!

    If you ever have questions, comments, or suggestions, never hesitate to reach out at team@pistollake.com – we'll always take care of you.

    Minimalist Tees: New Colors + Restocks, Oh My!

    Minimalist Tees: New Colors + Restocks, Oh My!

    It goes without saying, but 2020 has been difficult and challenging so far – and we’ve faced unpredictable obstacles every day.

    But these roadblocks have only pushed us to create and give back even more. For Pistol Lake, we’ve done our best to focus on the here and now and its most pressing issues. 

    From our ever-evolving partnership with Players for the Planet to creating face masks and ensuring that a portion of our proceeds help healthcare workers receive medical-grade equipment, we’re trying to make a positive difference any way we can.

    However, these efforts are also why we’ve been able to sew more of the products you love and make the changes you’ve asked to see. On the Minimalist Tee front, we’re officially restocked in a fan-favorite and (un)officially launching a new shade altogether.

    Crafted from Eudae, our flagship shirt does it all. Between fighting off odors and wicking away sweat – all while looking your most stylish – we’re pretty sure you’ll never want to take the tee off. The store is now full-up on Navy and, introducing for the first time, a short-run in Light Heather Gray.

    Check out our latest creations here – but, most importantly, take care and stay safe.
