Tennis style has officially left the court. Prince teams up with The Stoop Club on a cap that taps into the sport’s current fashion moment without making you look like you’re headed to doubles practice. The retro branding and easy, slightly nostalgic feel give it the appeal of a great vintage sporting-goods find, minus the hours digging through bins. Throw it on with an Oxford, sweatshirt or beat-up tee. You don’t need a decent backhand to pull it off.

Performance gear doesn’t have to look so technical. Peter Millar’s new Pursuit Series, fronted by 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey, is built around the idea of being “called to move”—but the clothes are designed as much for the workweek as the gym or travel. Start with the Pursuit Piqué Tee, which combines a polished, tailored silhouette with the stretch and comfort you want for a long day. The collection’s Performance Soft jacket and flat-front trouser takes the same approach to layering, pairing technical fabric with a clean, matte finish that’s easy to dress up and down. Neutral colors, minimal branding and sophisticated proportions make Pursuit a convincing alternative to the shiny, overly sporty performance gear we’re used to.

Good lighting should look good turned off, too. Article’s Perforate lamp makes a surprisingly strong case for the humble table lamp, pairing a perforated metal shade with a warm brass finish and clean, sculptural proportions. The tiny openings create a softer, more atmospheric glow than your standard bedside light, while the compact footprint means it can tuck onto a nightstand, bookshelf or side table without taking over. It’s functional, sure, but really it’s an easy way to make a room feel a little more designed.

The lightest waxed jacket you’ll ever wear. Flint and Tinder takes the weather-ready appeal of its rugged outerwear and pares it down into the James. It’s lighter, crafted from a time-tested waxed canvas, lined with comfortable Jaspe cotton in the body and nylon through the sleeves, and finished with snap hardware rather than buttons. Plus, it comes in this modern camo design and because it’s waxed, every crease and scuff should only make it look better.

Leave it to Aaron Levine to take the familiar outdoorsy half-zip and elevate it. How? With wool bouclé, giving the pullover a rich, nubby texture that feels more like a great vintage sweater. The relaxed shape keeps it from getting too precious, while the high collar adds some welcome heft up top. Wear it with faded jeans, cords or fatigues and let the fabric do the talking. It’s warm, tactile and exactly the sort of layer that makes getting dressed for fall fun again.

Modern life means a barrage of online deliveries. The Palmer reinvents the humble utility knife with minimalist style and real-world chops. Its slim, pocket-friendly body (in anodized aluminum) slides open with a buttery, patented mechanism. Perfect for everything from opening packages to pencil prep, it fits neatly into your front-coin pocket or can be tossed into a desk drawer. Toeing the line between everyday tool and thoughtful design object, it’s so stylish and capable, you’ll barely think of it as a box cutter, yet it handles like one.

Have you heard about The North Face’s Red Box collection? The new label is being described as the American version of the brand’s cult favorite Purple label out of Japan. GQ says the first drop is “pretty tight, but pretty much all of it hits.” Our favorite? The streamlined fleece pullover. It’s made with a plush recycled-poly fabric, features two super-secure zipper pockets, and is finished with elastic at the cuffs and hem to help it hold its shape (and block wind). And it’s offered at a very reasonable price.

It looks like something you’d find on Rick Owens’ desk. This stone skull was designed exclusively for CB2 by Parisian duo dach&zephir. Infusing gothic vibes with gallery-level polish, the cast-cement form is wrapped in a milky white marble finish via a water-transfer process that is the perfect mix of edgy and elegant. It’s sculptural without being overbearing and versatile enough to stage on a mantel, shelf or patio (it’s outdoor-safe, by the way). Each piece has its own marbling, so yours will feel like an art object, not a chain-store prop.

Buck Mason reminds us that you shouldn’t put your shades away just because summer’s coming to an end. The brand just reissued their Italian-made sunglasses for Fall 2025 and the Italian-made frames come in three unique frame styles. Inspired by mid-century modern design, our favorites are the Nighthawk—a stripped down riff on military frames, they’re fitted with anti-reflective coated CR39 lenses that offer full UV protection and five-barrel hinges for day-to-day durability.

What’s a little bit rugged, a touch preppy with a streetwear nod? Noah’s Buffalo plaid half-zip. It’s like a long-sleeve polo, made from 100% cotton interlock jacquard in a bold check pattern, crafted in Portugal with the kind of attention to detail you can feel. It’s the kind of piece you can wear with sweats and jeans but also pull together with a proper pair of pants and sneakers for a fresh look. You’ll put this standout knit on repeat as the temperatures start to dip.
