Yes, there are great debates whether or not wearing an undershirt is better or worse for dealing with the heat. On one side, of course, is the argument that undershirts help absorb sweat and stop if from showing through your shirt, or, worse, staining it at the armpits…
Read moreJ Crew's New Short Sleeved Stretch OCBD Reviewed
A short sleeve button down shirt is a great option for the warmer weather. It’s a bit more put-together than a polo, without the full-on stuffiness of a regular, long sleeved button down. Plus, if you get it in either bold prints, or very subdued solids like white or pink, it’s a great, casual option that can look great with a pair of shorts, just as quickly as it could under a blazer…
Read moreA Review of Ebbets Field Flannels Baseball Hats — The Hat You're Missing Out On
If you are like me, and require actually sized baseball hats as opposed to “one sized fits all,” you probably have a pretty hard time finding anything. Most all baseball caps I have come across are only available in a “one size fits all”, with that adjustable strap/tab at the back. This doesn’t work at all for guys with bigger heads, like myself, as, even if I could get the rear of the hat to fit, the front would look seriously out of proportion…
Read moreA Review of T.M. Lewin’s Outerwear — Quilted Jacket & Raincoat
It is very important to have a good collection of jackets and coats. Depending on the weather, you might need one of a few different kinds of outerwear, and making sure you are ready whatever the weather might throw at you is key. So, getting a good jacket is important. There aren’t as many options out there when it comes to outerwear as when it comes to something like, say, a dress shirt, though…
Read moreReview: Mack Weldon’s New Slim Fit Vesper Polo
It’s no secret that we think a polo is a great summer option. It’s the perfect top for the warmer months. It is neither too dressy, nor too casual. It can look just as at home paired with shorts and sneakers as it can under a blazer or even a suit. Still, not all polos are created equal. Some have different fits, styles — like pockets, thicker or spread collars, and so on — and, perhaps most importantly, different fabrics…

Increasingly, it seems like online made to measure service for men are becoming a dime a dozen. That’s why when certain companies really stand out, they’re worth taking a look at. Mill No. 8 is undoubtedly one of those companies. While there are many companies that pop up and offer just custom made dress shirts, Mill No. 8 also offers a nice line of custom pants as well…

With the advent of direct to consumer, online and vertically integrated companies, there has been a revolution in the men’s high(er) end dress shoe world. While it used to be that there was a significant gap between a solid quality shoe and something of… let’s just say lesser quality, now, that gap has been filled…
Read moreReview: Hockerty Custom Peacoat & Outerwear
Custom outerwear is hard to come by for less than thousands of dollars. Even at a budget of around one thousand dollars it’s hard to find custom outerwear. We’ve reviewed one of the few companies offering custom men’s outerwear in the $500-$1,000 range already and really liked what we experienced…
Read moreIn Review: The Ministry of Supply Kinetic Pant — The Stretchiest, Most Comfortable Dress Pants Ever Made?
We’ve been on a stretchy pants kick around here these past few weeks, no doubt. To cap it all off (for now), is the king (many would say) of all these pants, the Ministry of Supply Kinetic Pant ($145). We’ve reviewed stuff from Ministry of Supply before, and their company image is still the same…

Bonobos is not the only one with a super stretchy, super comfortable, jean-like pant. In fact, Banana Republic’s is even named similarly. To be honest, I am not quite sure who was first to market here, but both brands’ traveler pants are beloved by many guys…
