Stroll
WARNING: This story contains large amount of blood and is graphic.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kate was getting ready for her morning walk.  She was 28 years old five foot two with long blonde hair.  She was trying to get fit after giving birth three months ago and was still trying to lose the baby fat.  Her breasts were enlarged due to the breast feeding but overall she felt healthy.  She put on her grey yoga pants and sports bra before putting on a black t-shirt and her tennis shoes.  She got the stroller out of the closet and buckled her baby into it.  She left the house and hung her key around her neck on her necklace.  Everyday started the same with a two mile walk around the town.  Her husband had left earlier to go to his desk job to try and support his new family.  Kate was a little over a mile into her walk and was already headed home.  She crossed back over the street and her baby’s bottle fell out of the stroller.  She pushed the stroller to the curb before walking back out into the street to pick it up.  Without looking both ways, she bent down and picked up the bottle as she stood up she was suddenly struck by a car.  The driver had briefly looked down at his phone and never saw Kate.  Next thing the two knew Kate was on top of his hood.  He braked harshly causing Kate to roll off the hood at a high speed and then tumble on the pavement.  A pedestrian saw the accident and quickly dialed 911.  The driver was in shock and it took a few moments for him to realize what he had done.  “Shit! No, no, no” he said in a panic as he got out of the car.  Kate laid on the pavement unconscious with her left leg visibly broken and multiple lacerations to her body and face.  She also had a large gash on her head from the impact with the windshield.
In a few moments sirens could be heard in the distance as the small town street was flooded with emergency services.  The police department was first on scene.  One on the officers secured the driver and took a statement and field sobriety test while the other tended to Kate.  He shook her shoulder and called out “Ma’am, can you hear me?”  With no response he bent down next to her face and listened for breath while checking for a pulse.  There was a faint heartbeat but Kate was in respiratory arrest.  The officer tilted her head back, pinched her nose shut, and gave mouth to mouth respirations.  After each breath he turned his head and made sure her chest was rising and falling.   After giving three sets of two breaths he reassessed the condition and checked for signs of life again.  This time to his dismay Kate’s heart had stopped beating.  Without hesitation he placed his large hands between her large breasts and began CPR.  He felt her ribs pop from the aggressive compressions but kept going knowing this was normal.  After his first round of CPR the ambulance arrived on scene and rushed over.  “Upon arrival she was not breathing so I started MTM and then her heart stopped and I just provided one round of CPR” the officer reported.  “Can you continue CPR please?” one of the medics asked as they set down their equipment.  The officer centered his hands and began again.  With each compression Kate’s feet swung in and out from the force.  One of the paramedics placed the ambu bag over Kate’s mouth and nose while the other snipped away her bloodied shirt.  Kate was found to have extensive bruising and large amounts of blood on her chest.  The paramedic set up the heart monitor and connected the leads.  As the machine started up it found that Kate was in v-fib so the paramedic charged the defibrillator to 200 joules and gelled the paddles.  He snipped away her sports bra revealing her ample breasts and placed the paddles on her bare chest.  “Everyone stand clear, shocking” the medic said as he discharged the electricity into Kate’s body.  Kate jolted on the pavement for a moment before going still.  With no change CPR was resumed and an IV port was placed.  They started fluids and pushed the first round of meds into her system.  The paddles were recharged to 300 joules and placed back on her bare chest.  As everyone backed away Kate was shocked for a second time.  Her arms contracted and her breasts shook as she met the pavement again.  This time Kate converted to asystole as CPR was resumed.  They decided to scoop and run as they secured her onto a back board and place her in the ambulance.  The police officer went with them to continue CPR and whatever else he could do.  The other officer placed the driver in handcuffs and took him to the county jail for processing.  The second police car secured Kate’s baby and took her to the hospital until her other family could be notified.
The fight for Kate’s life continued in the back of the ambulance as she was intubated and the second round of epi was administered.  Her belly bulged outward every time her chest was compressed and her breasts shook.  The epi began to take effect as she converted into v-fib for a second time.  In a moments notice the paddles were charged to 360 joules, gelled, and placed back on her battered chest.  The shock coursed through her body as she struggled against the restraints.  Her head stayed in place due to the c-collar.  With no change compressions were started and the defib was charged to 360 again.  Again the paddles were placed between her breasts and under her left breast as she was shocked.  Her feet jumped off the backboard slightly and then went still again.  Unfortunately, Kate’s heart also went still as she converted back into asystole as they pulled into the hospital.  
As they rolled her out of the ambulance and into the hospital and officer straddled the gurney and continued CPR.  The officer noticed that her house key still hung around her neck as it shined with each light the passed under.  They rolled her into the trauma room as the paramedics gave an update to the team that was already gowned and prepared.  “Jane Doe mid to late 20′s involved in a pedestrian vs motor vehicle.  She coded shortly upon arrival, has been under continuous CPR and shocked four times.  Has been given two epi’s and converted into asystole upon arrival here.”  The scribe took down all the information as the officer got off the gurney and she was transferred onto the trauma bed.  The straps were quickly unfastened and a nurse took over CPR as the team each performed their delegated tasks.  The overhead light was repositioned as the blood on her chest glistened and the key around her neck sparkled.  The rest of clothes were snipped away and her shoes and socks were taken off.  In a moment Kate was nude on the table as the team desperately fought for her life.  Kate received her third epi at her 12 minute mark of her code as CPR continued to compress her battered body.  They attempted to control the bleeding from her lacerations and the bone sticking out of her leg.  The attending took an ultrasound of her abdomen and found that her belly was full of blood.  He asked for a surgical consult as her listened to the breath sounds.  Finding diminished breath sound on her right side he decided to place a chest tube.  He squirted betadine all over her right side and made a 1 inch incision before shoving the tube into place.  A large amount of blood poured out onto the floor as it was secured.  This helped regain breath sounds on her right side as her code continued.  Kate converted to v-fib once again as the defib was called for and charged to 360 joules.  The doctor took the paddles in his hands, a nurse squirted a large amount of gel onto them, he rubbed them together before placing them on her bloodied chest.  As everyone backed away and the ambu bag was laid against her face he pressed the shock button.  Kate’s chest shot into the air as her arms flailed out ward.  She crashed onto the bed again as her breasts shook.  With no change aggressive CPR was resumed and the paddles were recharged.  Kate’s arms and legs shook with each compression.  Again the paddles were placed on her chest and the electricity coursed through her dying body.  Her feet scrunched up and her hands made loose fits before releasing again.  Kate converted back into asystole as CPR was resumed.  The doctor took his penlight and shined it into Kate’s light blue eyes.  Her pupils were fixed and dilated.  He noticed a large amount of blood underneath her head.  Feeling the back of her skull he found brain matter was protruding from her skull.  At that time Kate’s code was ceased and her time of death was called at 11:24 am.  They disconnected the ambu bag, leads, and turned off the monitors.   The placed a toe tag on her big toe of her left foot and covered her with a white sheet.  They were unable to clean her up at all as the police department had to take photographs for the case against the driver.  Kate’s ID was found in the stroller and her family was notified.  The driver was convicted on involuntary vehicular manslaughter and sentenced to 25 years in prison without parole.

All Business: The Bonobos Italian Performance Suit

A review of Bonobos suits
In partnership with Bonobos.
I have been curious about Bonobos, especially their suits, for quite some time. Our previous Managing Editor, Adam Stone, who is now quite an accomplished stylist, moved from Chicago to NYC to work with the brand. Needless to say, I respect Adam very much and knew he wouldn’t work with a company he didn’t believe in. Fast forward a couple two, three years, and I’m here with an opportunity to test drive the Bonobos experience.
What follows will be a review of Bonobos suits, focusing on fit, fabric, and quality. Full transparency, this post is presented in partnership with Bonobos (as indicated clearly and conspicuously at the top of the post–it’s a shame some people don’t ever disclose their relationships with brands, isn’t it? Shame on them.), but I was fully prepared to say, “thanks, but no thanks” if the garments were subpar. Moving on into the review.
A quick elevator speech about Bonobos. Bonobos was founded in 2007 as a brand dedicated to making pants that actually fit well. Since then, they’ve expanded into men’s shirts, suits (including formalwear), and more. Everything is done online. There are 60+ brick and mortar locations, but the brand considers them “guideshops”. Basically, a real-life virtual showroom. Find the fit you like and they ship it right to your door. Free shipping both ways. And a generous return policy.
The suit I’m wearing: The Italian Performance Suit in navy pindot. 38R slim blazer fit. 31-inch waist slim fit pants. Two button. Notch lapel. Flap pockets. Double vent.
I took a complete gamble with the sizing. In the past, with other brands, I have been in the habit of choosing a 36R jacket and a 30-inch waist on my pants. I should mention that in the past, I was okay with my suits being slightly on the more fitted side. However, as I’ve gotten older and more mature in my approach to classic men’s style, I have deliberately chosen to go with garments with slightly more room–both for comfort and looks. So did my gamble pay off?
How does the suit fit? Surprisingly well. I mean, I was very impressed. In fact, when I brought it to my tailor, he asked me two questions. First, where did you have this made? And second, did you already have the jacket and pants tailored? It was that good. As you can see. Well, then, why was I at the tailor? The pants come unfinished, which is a great move on their part, as it allows the purchaser to dial in that very important detail to their exact specifications. It would be nice if Bonobos would cover the cost of alterations, but this is not something they currently offer.
The fabric. The fabric is a four-way stretch Italian wool from Marzotto (97% wool, 3% elastane). It’s navy with a lighter blue pindot, which gives it some nice depth and texture. I should note that my tailor also commented on the fabric, which he said he knew and was familiar with as a solid workhorse fabric. The addition of the elastane gives it a bit of stretchiness, which adds to the overall comfort and flexibility.
One more thing to point out is that the fabric is both stain and liquid repellent. Rob and I shot these photos during a light rain. If you look closely, you might be able to see some small water beads on the jacket. Incredibly, when you push them away, they roll right off and do not leave a mark.
The details. One of the reasons I generally go made-to-measure or bespoke is because of the control over important details, especially when it comes to jacket lapels. Most OTR options tend to have fairly narrow lapels, which are a complete no-go for me. However, the lapel width on this suit is exactly what I ask for with the majority of my MTM or bespoke suits–3.5 inches. I also am very picky when it comes to the leg opening of my trousers. I am typically in the 13.5-14″ range. And these trousers–slim fit–come it at 14″. I had my tailor hem them with just a slight break.
One unexpected, interesting, and mildly strange detail to point out is the existence of an extra zipped pocket in both the pants and the jacket. In the pants, it is directly behind the front pocket. On the jacket, it is on the inside. I have never seen this feature before. I could imagine it being used to its best advantage for cash or a card that you definitely don’t want to slip out of another pocket. However, I would avoid using it for anything bulky.
The verdict. Though my experience in the RTW suit department is admittedly limited, I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with Bonobos. The fit is excellent. The styling is classic. The fabric is a nice quality and quite comfortble, with the added bonus of it being a liquid repellant performance fabric. If you’re looking for a suit with those attributes and need a quick turnaround, I can definitely say that you should give Bonobos a try.
