It's that time of year…
The time when you start mentally converting every drop of rain in the city to snow in Tahoe.
But there'll come a moment—after you've carved and shredded your way through a day's worth of
powder—when you need to get off the slopes, sidle up to a fire, pour yourself a hard-earned whiskey
and slip into your hot-tub attire. And then out of your hot-tub attire and into something nearly as
comfortable…
Introducing Sunny Sports, a new line of vintage American gear out of Japan, now available for your
Tahoe après-ski outfitting at AB Fits in North Beach and MAC in Hayes Valley.
While the name Sunny Sports might conjure an image of a surfer knockoff of OP from the '80s, the clothes are
less about the balmy surf and more suited for higher elevations. Think: rustic mountain lodges. Yet the
subtle details (like an old-school pen pocket embedded in a pocket for your iPhone or BlackBerry) mean that
you'll blend in nicely at Tartine Bakery on a Sunday morning.
In fact, the plaid work shirt may be the perfect piece of streamlined outdoorsy gear to get you through the
next couple weekends of football and pumpkin carving. And then, when it looks like the temperature is about
to dip and you're finally heading to Tahoe, you'll want to bring along the four-pocket wool Melton
jacket—just the shirt for tossing a few logs into the fire.
Or a few inferior garments.
