Every day, our team filters through hundreds of style articles, clothing pieces, collection launches, brand parties, blogger fads, runway shows, fashion shoots, lookbooks and many, many more stimuli to stay on top of what’s hot in men’s fashion. In spite of all that noise, we’ll keep things simple here: just four things we’re into right now, updated each week.
1/8 Takamura Chamarra Trapecio Hooded Coat
Mexican brand 1/8 Takamura makes a hooded coat that is perfect for the transition from winter to spring. Cut from heavy-weight twill that’s rinsed to reduce shrinkage, it features a french-seamed inner, hidden front hand pockets and a hidden placket with buttons. The slim silhouette also has an elongated vent.
Blue Blue Japan Indigo-Dyed Baseball Cap
Made in Japan from indigo-dyed cotton-twill, this cap will fade like your favorite pair of jeans. It has an adjustable leather back tab and no exterior branding that would detract from the beauty of the fabric. Wear it hard, wear it for years and watch it become a unique reflection of how you wear it.
Le Labo Face Lotion
Quality grooming essentials are worth splurging on, and while we may be dreaming of warmer weather, the cold harsh winds of winter necessitate a solid facial moisturizer. This balm from Le Labo is a great option: it’s lightweight, non-greasy and uses natural, plant-based ingredients and has nuanced aromas of lavender, tonka bean and bergamot.
Persol PO3166S Calligrapher Edition
Persol’s new Calligrapher Edition glasses pair classic styles with new details. The P03166S model is a standout in the collection, featuring glare-reducing blue lenses and classic, striped-brown acetate frames. The highly-detailed metal bridge and temples are appreciated bits of subtle flair.
