Here are some of my favorite men's looks from the Portland Collection's inaugural spring/summer line. As I mentioned in Part I, Pendleton gives us some sporty, camp-y pieces here.

Their lookbook doesn't make mention of this great khaki jacket (pictured above). I hope, for some lucky guys' sake, that it is part of the collection.

I really like the Portland Collection. I am sure that Pendleton is trying to fulfill the wish of the public to find Made in the USA. Pendleton for the past few years has been trying to get by with "fabric made in USA, but made in China", which didn't fly with a lot of people. So, the Portland Collection is definitely a welcome sign. -Jack A
