Item of the Week: Trafalgar Braces

Just in time for holiday gift giving and New Years celebrations, Trafalgar has reissued Bubbles, an all-time favorite design from their archives, now woven on an ancient loom in France with components from France, England and the U.S. Although she’s been updated and re-colored, she looks better than ever, appealing to both traditional guys who love braces as well as fashionable young hipsters caught up in the retro-vintage trend. Suggested retail here is $195 at www.trafalgarstore.com.

Also from Trafalgar: elegant braces in French velvet, available in black, burgundy, hunter or navy, for a suggested retail of $85.

Brace yourselves for a spectacular holiday season!

Each week, MR’s editors will comment on a product we’ve seen in the market. It could be an emerging trend, a novel take on a classic or something that just caught our eyes.
