Profile: SAM HILL
Here is a further look into my brother’s new shop, Sam Hill and his collection of quality vintage clothing and misc. wares from mid-century America.
Holding the motto, “We have all things good,” is a perfect summation to the lovely collection they have for sale.
Open Thursdays and Fridays in the Helm Showroom in East Austin.

Preview: Sam Hill
Sam Hill is a new venture started by my own dear brother with the vision of collecting and purveying quality vintage clothing and accessories. Their pop-up shop is now open in the Helm Boots showroom in East Austin.
Peruse the excellent stock of handpicked items from around the country in the realms of heritage Americana, collegiate, mid-century workwear and miscellaneous accessories at the preview party TONIGHT and for the remainder of this weekend for their premiere as part of Austin’s E.A.S.T. studio tour.
To coincide with the launch of Sam Hill, a series of short films were created by local Austin filmmaker Tyler Crelia:
Collected Works Co.
Collected Works Co. is the collaborative effort of Pacific Northwesterners Jacob Hinmon and Patrick Vail. Their original goal was to create beautiful, functional and durable products. The end result consists of a military-inspired duffle backpack and a series of corresponding auxiliary pouches. With all components being USA-made, the pack is designed with a long life-span in mind and features Horween Chromexcel leather sewn at Portland’s Tanner Goods. Complete with a fully waxed canvas exterior, the interior features modern touches like a laptop, iPad and phone pockets. Perfect for the wilderness or for the every-day pack around town.
