King flex boxer

1

These are underwear from the future. Because RJ King is interested in making underwear that’s truly supportwear. The male model, founder and friend of Valet. has a new line of boxer briefs and briefs that deliver the brand’s now-famous supportive, body-conscious cut with a little more freedom of movement for all-day comfort. You still get the butt lift and ball support, they’re just a little thinner and, dare we say, sexier.

3sixteen work blazer 1

3

A blazer built like workwear. 3sixteen loosens up traditional tailoring with a low button stance, wider lapels and an easy fit, then cuts the whole thing from heavyweight cotton twill and garment-dyes it in a deep midnight color. The result lands somewhere between a proper sport coat and your favorite chore jacket, which means you can wear it without suddenly feeling overdressed. Throw it over an oxford for the office or a sweatshirt on the weekend. Consider it tailoring for guys who’d rather not look too tailored.

Gingko design solis drift light 1

4

Here’s a little sunset for your nightstand or bookcase. The Solis Drift Light’s tall, cylindrical shape echoes the clean vertical shift of daylight, while a unique magnetic activation mechanism replaces traditional switches with a simple touch. The minimalist design looks more like a small art object than another piece of lighting equipment, so it works just as well on a bookshelf or side table as it does beside the bed. Think of it as an antidote to the dreaded big light: softer, moodier and considerably more interesting to look at.

Ciele athletics dlylongsleeve 1

5

Your running gear should work the night shift. Ciele’s NiteRite collection takes the technical, lightweight kit the Montreal brand is known for and makes visibility after dark part of the design. Reflective treatments come alive when headlights hit, while the performance fabrics remain breathable, quick-drying and built for actual miles. It’s practical if your fall runs increasingly happen before sunrise or after work, but the graphic, futuristic look means none of it feels like obligatory safety gear.

Relwen heritage trap blazer in lodenrust district plaid

1

We’re entering blazer weather. Relwen strips the sport coat back to the essentials with natural shoulders, a relaxed fit and none of the padding, canvassing or fussy construction that can make tailoring feel stiff. The result wears more like your favorite jacket than something reserved for meetings. Throw it over an Oxford with chinos, sure, but we like it even better with a tee or light sweater and some faded jeans and loafers. It’s that sweet spot layer you’ll keep reaching for, trust us.

Aim leon dore ald the north face denali half zip pullover 1

2

That Denali cleans up nicely. Aimé Leon Dore reaches into The North Face archives for this ’95-inspired half-zip, giving the outdoor staple the kind of considered treatment you’d expect from Teddy Santis. The two-tone fleece has a relaxed fit, DWR finish and enough zippered pockets to keep its technical credentials intact, while subtle co-branding and the rich color palette make it considerably more city-friendly. It even snaps into the collaboration’s Mountain Jacket when the weather gets serious.

Camp snap 110d camera

3

Your next camera doesn’t need another screen. Camp Snap’s new 110D takes inspiration from the skinny 110 film cameras of the ’70s, then swaps the film cartridge for an 8-megapixel digital sensor. There’s no screen for reviewing every shot, just a viewfinder, flash, five built-in vintage-style filters and a microSD card capable of holding around 2,000 photos. The result brings a little unpredictability back to taking pictures without making you develop actual film. Slim enough to disappear into a pocket, it’s exactly the sort of camera you’ll want along for nights out and weekends away.

Percival embroidered guinness peak cap 1

4

Pub merch has never looked this good. Percival’s second round with Guinness includes plenty of pieces worth raising a pint to, but this forest green cap might be the easiest to wear. The low-profile shape gets a contrasting corduroy peak, rope trim and subtle embroidered branding, giving it the charm of something you might’ve found in the back of an old Irish pub. It’s playful without feeling gimmicky—Guinness lover or not, it’s simply a very good fall hat.

Zara home oak push up handles 1

5

The key to working out more? Stylish equipment that doesn’t need to be hidden away. Zara Home’s latest sports collection turns something as utilitarian as push-up bars into objects you won’t immediately shove under the bed. Made from oak and steel, the pair elevates your hands off the floor for push-ups. At $169, they’re admittedly extravagant for something designed to make push-ups harder. But if workout gear is going to live in your living room, there’s something to be said for equipment that looks more like decor.

The stoop club prince street

1

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.

Peter millar pursuit piqu tee

2

Special Promotion

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.

Article perforate table lamp 1

3

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.

Flint and tinder james waxed jacket 1

4

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.

Aaron levine wool boucle half zip 1

5

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.

Abercrombie pleated baggy trouser

1

Give your trousers a little more room, but not too much. Abercrombie’s pleated trousers take the wider silhouette we’ve been wearing for the past few seasons and clean it up just enough for the office. The roomy leg gives them a relaxed drape, while the front pleats offer up some old-school menswear polish. They’re tailored without feeling corporate, which means you can wear them with an Oxford and loafers during the week, then swap in a cropped tee and sneakers on Saturday. Plus they come in three neutral shades.

Fresh clean threads best seller crew 6 pack 1

Finding the perfect T-shirt can be tricky. But Fresh Clean Threads built its reputation by getting the basics right: soft, breathable tees with a tailored shape, fitted sleeves and enough room through the chest to actually feel comfortable. The brand’s StratuSoft fabric is designed to hold its shape wash after wash, while 18 individual sizes (including three length options) make it feel like this was custom fit for you.

Aim leon dore crest fleece casual jacket 1

Fleece … but make it sophisticated. Aimé Leon Dore’s latest fall collection makes a convincing case for treating the fuzzy stuff like proper outerwear. The brand’s new Crest Fleece jacket has a clean, almost Harrington-like silhouette that tempers the outdoorsy texture, with understated branding keeping things firmly in ALD’s new-prep territory. It’s exactly the sort of layer that works over a tee now and a sweater later. Cozy, yes. But considerably sharper than your old hiking fleece.

Casio aq230a 7avt watch

4

You know we love an affordable watch that looks considerably more expensive. Casio’s AQ230 has been around in its current form since 1995, pairing a slim rectangular case and stainless steel bracelet with an old-school analog-digital display. This silver sunburst version is especially handsome, with just enough retro-tech weirdness to keep it from feeling like a traditional dress watch. And at $59.95, you don’t have to overthink it. Wear it with a suit, a polo or a sweatshirt, because it somehow makes sense with all three.

Diptyque feu de bois classic candle 1

5

That luxury candle just became a little easier to justify. Diptyque quietly redesigned its iconic candle vessels this year, subtly refining the shape and label while introducing something much more significant: refills for 10 of its classic scents. Which makes now a particularly good time to invest in our fall favorite, Feu de Bois. Smoky, resinous and convincingly woody, it smells like an actual fireplace crackling in a handsome A-frame cabin. Burn through it, keep the handsome glass and then refill it for the next cold front.

Ranger station anti pumpkin candle 1

1

The crisp antithesis to that ubiquitous sugary sweet scent. Ranger Station’s cheekily named Anti-Pumpkin skips the cinnamon, caramel and coffee-shop syrup that tends to take over this time of year. Instead, it smells like an actual autumn day: pine needles, crisp morning air, falling leaves and a touch of petrichor—that earthy scent you get after rain. It’s woodsy and atmospheric without making your place smell like a seasonal candle aisle. In other words, exactly what you want to burn when the first cool night finally arrives.

Gap heavyweight crop t shirt 1

2

Want the perfect cropped tee? Head to the Gap. With trousers and jeans getting wider and higher, an extra-long T-shirt can throw the whole silhouette off. Gap’s heavyweight tee fixes that with a relaxed shape and shorter hem that hits above the hip, giving you cleaner proportions without looking actually, well, cropped. It comes in multiple colors, is made from 100% cotton with enough weight to hold its shape, and Gap even suggests sizing down if you want a more classic fit.

The james brand inc helton 1

3

The Swiss Army knife just got a design upgrade. The James Brand spent three years refining the Helton, its take on the classic pocket multi-tool, stripping away the stuff you rarely use and keeping nine genuinely handy tools. There’s a partially serrated VG-10 blade, spring-action scissors, magnetic Phillips and flathead drivers, tweezers, files and, naturally, a bottle opener. Better still, every implement locks into place and the whole aluminum package is slimmer than a pack of gum. It’s the sort of handsome, genuinely useful object that makes a pretty convincing case for carrying a multi-tool again.

Rocco essential fridge

Your favorite influencer’s favorite mini fridge is now easier to buy. Rocco’s new Essential takes the furniture-like good looks of its original beverage fridge and pares things back for everyday drinking—and a considerably lower price. It’s got the same compressor technology as Sub-Zero, isolated temperature zones, reversible racks, and a top that doubles as a bar cart. Oh, and it still comes in multiple colors to suit your design style.

Httpswww3sixteencomorganization smock teak peached twill 1

5

Workwear with an art-school streak. 3sixteen looked to old British fishing smocks, which were later adopted by artists and craftspeople, for this roomy pullover layer. The wide, boxy shape is cut from peached cotton twill in a warm teak shade, with a mock neck and substantial cuffs adding some structure. It’s practical by design, but the proportions are what make it feel especially right now. Pull it over a tee with wide jeans or fatigues and you’ve got a fall outfit that looks considerably more interesting than another chore coat.

Polo ralph lauren us open pullover

Tennis style without stepping onto the court. With the US Open approaching, official outfitter Polo Ralph Lauren has rolled out another collection of tournament-ready gear, from sunglasses and totes to graphic tees. Our pick is this retro-leaning tricot pullover, complete with an archival-inspired graphic, signature Pony and official tournament logo. It has all the preppy, courtside energy you want, but doesn’t look like merch you’ll retire once the trophy is handed out.

Steele canvas color block tote

2

Give your everyday tote a little more personality. New England stalwart Steele Canvas has been making hard-wearing canvas goods for more than a century, and its latest totes loosen things up with unexpected blocks of color. Each is handcrafted at the company’s Massachusetts workshop from heavyweight canvas, so this isn’t some flimsy bag destined to stretch out after a few grocery runs. It’s sturdy enough for the farmers market, handsome enough for the office and roomy enough for an impromptu weekend away.

Supreme still knows how to make the ordinary feel collectible. The latest drop takes a familiar everyday staple, the OCBD and gives it the brand’s unmistakable downtown treatment. The brushed cotton fabric has a weighty feel, the cut is just a little boxy and the pocket has a nice little embroidered crown graphic. It’s available in multiple colorways, but they’re selling out fast.

Jacques marie mage 1980 kubrick sunglasses

4

Turns out, Stanley Kubrick had an eye for more than movies. Jacques Marie Mage continues its collaboration with the late director’s estate with two frames inspired by distinct eras of his life: the 1940s and 1980s. We’re partial to the latter, an unapologetically retro pair that captures the oversized eyewear Kubrick wore while on the set of The Shining and Full Metal Jacket. The proportions are bold, sure, but the craftsmanship and considered details—from titanium rims to hidden monoblock hinges—keep them well clear of costume territory.

Frizmworks essential work pant

5

These are work pants in name only. Korean brand FrizmWORKS takes the utility and sturdiness you want from old-school workwear and loosens up the proportions for something considerably easier to wear today. The rich brown color is a welcome change from the usual khaki or olive, while the relaxed shape looks especially good with a slightly cropped shirt, sweatshirt or simple white tee. Add loafers or beat-up sneakers and you’re done. But these run a bit small, so you might want to size up in this style for the best fit.

J.Crew Overdyed rugby shirt

1

Prep is better with a little wear on it, right? J.Crew takes the old-school rugby—an 11-ounce cotton classic the brand has been playing with since the ’80s—and overdyes it for a softer, faded finish. The green-and-blue stripes feel collegiate without looking like you’re headed to a reunion weekend, while the substantial fabric gives it enough structure to stand in for a sweatshirt. Wear it with faded jeans, chinos or shorts now, then layer it under a jacket when temperatures drop.

2

Don’t have much storage space? This minimalist bed has the warm, low-key good looks you want from a walnut bed frame, then quietly works four oversized storage drawers into the design. That means extra sheets, sweaters and the clothes you swear you’re going to donate can disappear without sacrificing floor space to another dresser. Plus, the rounded corners, a slim headboard and a tight footprint keep the whole thing looking clean and surprisingly light.

Buck mason big bulkhead dungaree

3

These jeans have some serious military chops. Buck Mason looked to 1940s U.S. Navy dungarees for this wide, workwear-heavy pair, cutting them from 10-ounce Japanese denim and bringing back details like oversized fatigue-style front pockets. The archival proportions feel remarkably current: higher up top, generous through the leg and made to look even better after some abuse. Pair them with a white tee and canvas sneakers and there’s really not much else to figure out.

Octobre Éditions Boxy Oxford shirt

4

How do you make an Oxford cloth button-down feel fresh? Cut it into a slightly cropped, boxy silhouette. Parisian menswear label Octobre Éditions’ new collection channels that back-to-school feeling, but the relaxed cut gives a preppy standby some modern breathing room, while mother-of-pearl buttons keep things appropriately polished. Wear your normal size for an easy, slightly oversized shape or size down to clean things up. Either way, it’s a convincing excuse to buy new clothes for the coming season.

The easiest way to give your face a little character? Some angular, chunky sunglasses.

The acetate construction gives them some real presence, while the clean lines keep everything sharp and wearable. They’re the kind of shades that work with a plain white tee just as well as a linen suit, and make both look a little cooler.

If there’s one thing Abercrombie & Fitch does well, it’s denim. It’s soft, hefty and feels considerably more expensive than it really is. And if you want a pair of white jeans without having to spend too much, Abercrombie’s baggy fit gives you plenty of room through the leg with just enough puddle at the shoe, all cut from 100% cotton denim with a properly broken-in feel. The proportions feel current without looking like you’re chasing a trend. Wear them with a cropped tee, an Oxford or a lightweight sweater and let the denim do the heavy lifting.

This is one of those uniquely American watches. Hamilton’s Boulton originally arrived in 1941, and this modern revival retains the handsome Art Deco character while subtly increasing the proportions for today.

It’s an old-school dress watch that suddenly feels very right for right now.

We know Todd Snyder makes one helluva Timex. The designer has a knack for making timeless pieces feel new again, and his latest take on the Timex Marlin is no exception. Swapping the usual leather for a stainless steel mesh bracelet gives the ’60s-era watch a cleaner, more versatile look that works just as well with a suit as it does with a T-shirt. It’s slim, understated and perfect for any guy who appreciates the finer details. The real question is do you want the silver dial or the blush pink or aquamarine blue?

They’re statement sunglasses, sure, but understated enough that they’ll quietly become your default pair all season.

Layering doesn’t have to stop because it’s summer. Ralph Lauren takes the classic field shirt and lightens it up with breathable linen, giving it a relaxed feel without losing any of its rugged appeal. The utility pockets and workwear-inspired details keep it grounded, while the easy fit makes it just as comfortable worn open with a tee as it is buttoned over a tank. It’s one of those pieces that quietly pulls an outfit together and only gets better as the linen softens with wear.

This is the kind of shirt every guy should own at least one of. There’s something about a popover that instantly feels more relaxed than a traditional button-down. And Vito’s nails the formula with crisp Oxford cloth, an easy fit and the kind of unfussy styling that works year-round. Wear it untucked with chinos, layered under a chore jacket, or rolled up with shorts on the weekend. It’s classic Ivy style that feels decidedly fresh in 2026.

Cb2 scala marble shelf

Consider this the easiest home upgrade you’ll make all year. Floating shelves tend to disappear into a room. This one does the opposite. A thick slab of marble turns everyday objects (from books and candles to ceramics) into a proper display without trying too hard. Hang one by itself or stack a few together. Either way, it instantly makes the wall feel more considered.

Portar Lucent check-in suitcase

Because your luggage should age as well as your leather jacket. Anyone who knows anything about aluminum cases will tell you that metal luggage isn’t supposed to stay pristine. It’s meant to collect dents, scratches and stories along the way. Portar’s new Lucent suitcase delivers all the durability and timeless appeal of classic metal luggage with a cleaner, more contemporary design. The outside boasts 360-degree spinner wheels with shock-absorbing springs that stay composed across airport floors, sidewalks and cobblestone. Inside, a smooth lining comes with a water-resistant wet/dry pocket.

Todd snyder foundation sweatshirt

5

It’s not quite a sweatshirt, but more than T-shirt. Which is why this works so well. Todd Snyder’s short-sleeve raglan is cut from soft French terry, giving it smooth structure and the body is roomy through the chest, tapered at the waist. Throw it on with pleated trousers, fatigues or broken-in denim and it immediately makes a casual outfit feel a little more stylish. Plus, it comes in three colorways, but we like this olive green version.

Miansai sterling silver bracelet

Here’s an easy way to elevate your wrist game. A simple chain bracelet does more than most guys give it credit for, and Miansai’s Sven gets the proportions just right. The sterling silver maritime-inspired links are substantial without feeling chunky, making it just as comfortable worn solo as stacked alongside a watch. It’s understated enough for everyday wear, but adds the kind of finishing touch that makes an outfit feel complete.

Summer’s best shorts are trunks built for more than the water. Earth Studies designs these with the idea that your day probably won’t end when you leave the beach. The tailored fit, understated color and lightweight recycled fabric make them just as easy to wear with a linen shirt at lunch as they are with nothing but sunscreen on the sand.

Its softly curved silhouette brings a little movement to a wall without overwhelming the space, while the oversized proportions and oxidized finish bounce light around the room and make everything feel a bit more open. Hang it in an entryway, above a console or anywhere that could use a little architectural interest.

Heavy-duty canvas gives it plenty of structure, while the clean design keeps it from looking overly utilitarian. Toss it in the trunk, throw it over your shoulder, and don’t think twice.

Onekind radical repair cream cleanser

Your face wash should do more than just clean. Onekind’s new cream-to-lather cleanser washes away sunscreen, grime and the rest of the day without leaving your skin feeling tight or stripped. Instead, ingredients like hyaluronic acid and cactus-derived hydrators replenish moisture as they cleanse. And the feeling (and benefits) lasts after you rinse your face, making it an especially smart pick if your skin leans dry or sensitive. Plus, it’s got an invigorating cooling sensation that feels great during summer. It’s a cleanser that turns a step most guys rush through into one that actually improves your skin.

Did you catch this bit of trivia coming out of the big Knicks celebration? Skechers just had its biggest basketball moment yet, with star forward OG Anunoby becoming the first player to win an NBA Finals wearing the brand’s performance footwear. Throughout a dominant postseason, Anunoby averaged a career-best 20.1 points per game while lacing up the new SKX Nexus Euro PE, a lightweight low-top built for speed, stability, and all-game comfort. It’s a milestone not just for the player, but for the footwear brand’s rapidly growing basketball division. And if the Euro colorway isn’t your style, the SKX Reign Foreman and SKX Nexus NYC Blue PE (with pre-orders opening soon) prove the brand’s basketball lineup is only getting stronger.

It’s the sort of shirt that feels just as natural at a backyard dinner party as it does layered under a jacket come fall.

GU x Engineered Garments Cordlane jacket

1

You won’t find a better deal on a summer suit. Engineered Garments and GU have teamed up again for a second capsule collection based on a modern reinterpretation of 1950s American resort style. Designed by founder Daiki Suzuki, the standout for us is this Cordlane jacket (there are also matching pants to create a suit). Cut from a crisp cotton-blend fabric, it looks like a smoother, more modern seersucker. And it was specially designed to minimize skin contact, making it feel as cool as it looks.

Rimowa cabin aluminum grid suitcase

Consider this the carry-on you graduate to. Rimowa’s aluminum cabin case is the benchmark for a reason: grooved shell, smooth-gliding wheels and a build that’s meant to last decades, not seasons. It’ll pick up scratches and dents along the way, but that’s the point. The new Grid collection reimagines a stylish archival design from 1969, updated just enough for today’s traveler. There’s TSA-approved locks, the brand’s multi-wheel system and a flex divider inside to keep everything organized. Expensive, yes, but if you travel often, it’s one of the few pieces that actually earns its keep over time.

The classic silhouette looks timeless but never tired. It’s an easy middle ground between a relaxed button-down and a sweater: dress it up with loafers or down with canvas sneakers.

Hanover Essential Oxford

Chris Black is known in menswear circles for his classic, unimpeachable taste. He doesn’t take fashion too seriously and has developed a uniform of sorts of vintage 501s, classic band tees and well-worn Oxford button-downs. He’s now brought that sensibility to his own line, Hanover. His Oxford is what happens when American craftsmanship meets Japanese fabric obsession. The cloth is woven in Japan—dense enough to maintain structure, soft enough to improve with every wash—then cut and sewn stateside with precision that shows. The classic fit offers room through the shoulders without billowing, hitting that ideal length whether tucked or left loose. Available in timeless white, blue and red—it’s the shirt you’ll wear twice a week without thinking twice. Because, as Black might say, when the fundamentals are this dialed in, you don’t need anything flashier in your rotation.

Left unlined for effortless layering across seasons, it’s substantial enough for chilly mornings but won’t suffocate you indoors.

The latest UNIQLO collab has everyone talking. Fellow Japanese brand Needles has put together a capsule line of cozy staples, focused on fleece jackets, cardigans and pants. There’s a lot to like, but our favorite is this relaxed fleece cardigan, complete with drop shoulders and Butterfly logo embroidery to add that quintessential NEEDLES brand accent. It’s available in three colorways, but sizes are moving fast.

Dundas overcoat

As we’ve recently told you, you’re going to need a good coat this winter. And Kestin, an under-the-radar Scottish brand just released one of the best ones we’ve seen this season. The label’s Dundas overcoat is cut from a super soft yet sturdy Italian wool blend with a brushed finish. It comes in two classic colorways, a midnight navy and a speckled gray, and is tailored with raglan sleeves for ease of movement and finished with Coroso buttons and a concealed placket.

Doubleback twill pant

4

This looks like the perfect vintage sweater, but it’s brand new. Big Rock Candy Mountaineering has a relaxed, retro vibe but specializes in pieces inspired by the vintage gear the designers unearth around the world. The brand launched last year from two menswear vets (including the founder of Wythe) and these pants highlight what makes it so damn good. They’re cut from heavy-duty cotton duck canvas that can take a beating (but they’ve been washed so they’re broken in from the start). The high-set, wide rear pockets keep essentials within reach on the wall or on the move, and the double knees add extra life where it counts. Of course, they look just as cool when they’re worn on the weekends to lunch.

This looks like the perfect vintage sweater, but it’s brand new. Buck Mason has knit this from chunky Italian merino, giving the finished sweater a distinctive, nubby tweed texture. It’s lightweight, soft yet lofty, so it delivers real warmth without the bulk. Finished with a ribbed mock neck, it stands nicely without constricting your neck and has a lived-in feel from day one. This is a sweater you’ll get a lot of wear out of all season.

This sweatshirt looks deceptively simple. The collared half-zip is made from a lofty fleeceback fabric chosen for its soft interior feel and insulating properties. Put it on and you discover the perfect drape, thanks to said fabric and the relaxed fit with drop shoulders and generous sleeve proportions. The slightly cropped silhouette hits right at your waistband and the heavy-gauge zipper adds a ruggedly luxurious touch, too.

We love these gentlemanly trousers because they’re as comfortable as a pair of sweats. Buck Mason’s design team says they were inspired by vintage chinos, but cut this pair from a cozy herringbone twill fabric (made from cotton and wool). It’s got the perfect mid-rise waist (with concealed drawstring for a perfect fit) and single pleats (for a touch of dapper charm). And there’s a matching jacket if you want to make it into a suit

A soft shirt that’s tougher than it looks. Based off of a vintage hand-me-down chamois button-up, imogene + willie’s Griffin shirt was developed with the desire to fill the gap between a flannel and outerwear. They say it’s an “intentionally versatile garment designed to take a beating.” And we have to agree with them. Not to mention, the stylish washed black colorway is an extremely versatile shade.

With a washed finish, soft terry interior and just enough slub texture, it lands between lived-in and luxe. The cut’s relaxed but still carries structure at the shoulders and chest, allowing for movement. It looks like a vintage sweatshirt, but still offers modern benefits like sweat-wicking and anti-odor properties. Plus, it comes in five colorways to match any gym fit.

Long-sleeve Riviera polo shirt

Sunspel’s long-sleeve polo isn’t just another shirt, it’s a modern menswear icon. It’s made from the brand’s own lightweight, breathable Supima cotton mesh—first developed in the 1950s for summers on the French Riviera, the soft material is a fabric innovation that has stood the test of time. The shirt’s design became something of legend when tailored for Daniel Craig’s debut as James Bond in Casino Royale, and the long-sleeve version carries that same sharp, understated style with a little extra versatility for fall. Cut with a flattering fit, it’s refined enough to slip under a blazer yet casual enough to wear on its own, making it an ideal layer for this time of year. Our readers have always gravitated toward it—especially in classic navy—and for good reason: It’s one of those rare pieces that feels timeless, cool and quietly confident.

These pants are hard to define, but easy to wear. They’ve got the look of fatigue pants, but are cut from a rugged workwear canvas fabric.
