From 2-D Toys to 3-D Shirts

Life can be strange.
Yes, you've sussed out a
bar within a bar, killed it at
underwater hockey and devoured
guinea pig—but you've yet to throw on a button-down designed by Pixar animators.
Luckily for you there's
Bush + Leavenworth, a debut menswear line from two of the animators behind
Toy Story 3 and
Up, who decided to take their offbeat design talents into the third
dimension (and don't worry, they've kept their day job).
Named after the intersection where they used to live as roommates, the line features the pair's original
graphic tees with computer-drawn images (not of toy cowboys or balloon-flown houses, but much stranger
things like
nine pinecones).
But we especially appreciate their foray into workwear featuring edgy, unconventional details (mostly
button-downs for now, but sweaters and jackets are in the pipeline). We like the shirt with side pockets
instead of a chest pocket, and the slim plaid button-down with a three-panel back and asymmetrical
yoke.
You wouldn't believe how an asymmetrical yoke can turn heads.
