Waxed and ready for anything. Flint and Tinder's James Waxed Snap jacket takes the classic chore silhouette and armor-coats it for versatility. The waxed canvas shell shrugs off light rain while breaking in beautifully—the kind of piece that only looks better with age. Snap-front closure, roomy patch pockets, and a hip-length cut keep it practical, while the fit strikes that sweet spot: relaxed enough to layer, clean enough to wear on its own. Available in several colorways, it's one of those jackets that earns character with every wear and works just as well on a coffee run as a weekend getaway.

IKEA knows how to make lamps that get noticed. Everyone knows the VARMBLIXT “donut lamp”, that translucent orange ring is a modern-day interior icon thanks to social media. Is this the next one to go viral? Like three crossed, oversized matchsticks, designer Lukas Bazle's playful and practical floor lamp is part art piece, part dimmable floor lamp. It makes for a natural eye-catcher that will evoke smiles from every guest.

A transitional flannel for transitional weather. This plaid shirt is cut from a light weight hemp blend twill, which not only feels soft but offers a nice drape, whether you're throwing it on over a T-shirt or tucking it into proper trousers. The fabric has a slubby, tactile feel even as it softens with washing and wearing, while the camp collar gives it a nicely relaxed vibe.

Is it a sweater that acts like a jacket, or a jacket that feels like a sweater? Maybe it's both. Milled from a wool-blend that pairs crisp body panels with a lighter knit across the sleeves and back, this sport coat delivers structure in all the right places. The silhouette's relaxed and roomy (ideal for layering), but tailored enough to avoid looking sloppy. Rugged enough to stand in for outerwear on cool days, polished enough to dress up a tee. This is a versatile piece you'll keep reaching for throughout the fall and winter.

These are baggy jeans made for grown men. Cut loose through the hips and thighs from quality denim, they've got the structure and drape that only non-stretch jeans can pull off. A smart back-hem dart keeps the leg clean, so instead of bunching up at your ankles, they fall just right over sneakers or boots. The washed black finish adds instant character—dark, versatile and easy to wear with pretty much anything.
