LUXURY

Today is the last day of NYFW and the very last show on the calendar is none other than Thom Browne. The New York based American is back to showing in New York after skipping out on the occasion last year. Be sure to check out the Thom Browne website after 6pm ET to find a new array of knits, pleated skirts, overcoats and the dearly beloved suit shorts for which he’s become so unique.
WORKWEAR
Brain Dead 00 Raw Denim Release

The beauties themselves (Brain Dead)
High waisted, classic cut, raw denim — what more can you ask for? California based Brain Dead might often be found in the Streetwear category, but today their 15.5oz wide leg selvage denim belongs with the workhorses. These bad boys are live as of yesterday and they also come in black or striped (but you should be getting the classic indigos if you ask me).
STREETWEAR
Palm Angles x F1

Head to Toe capsule: jacket, pant, shoe (Palm Angels)
Palm Angels and the Moneygram Haas F1 team collaborated on a capsule that covers jackets, trainers, shirts and vests. F1’s absorption into the broader culture since Netflix’s Drive to Survive is truly impressive and likely the envy of niche sports the world over. Though there’s a lot of cream in this crop, the highlight for me has to be this Palm Racing vest.
FORMAL WEAR
J. Crew Spring 2024 Look Book

Head to toe in the new collection (J. Crew)
Brendon Babenzien — head of menswear at J. Crew since 2021 — is serving more consistent heat than Andy Roddick in his prime, and he’s done so again with the new J. Crew Spring 2024 look book, live now. Founder of Noah and formerly at Supreme, Babenzien describes this collection better than I ever could: “This spring season, we’re all about a light touch. Good style should look and feel effortless, so we set out to make that easy to achieve—while still prioritizing quality and a subtle sense of sophistication.” You checked that box, Brendon.
OFFICE WEAR
Huckberry Blowout Sale

(Huckberry)
There are a whopping 736 items on sale on the Huckberry website as of the writing of this entry, and there are gems within. Cable knit sweaters, quarter zips, work boots, down jackets, wax jackets, suede shackets and more. This water resistant shell for 50% off could easily become your back up backpack plan in the event of mid-day rain at the office. Have a look, there’s a lot to take in.
ONE LAST THING….
Lights-out PFW Coverage (video)
If you care at all about luxury fashion or what’s on the cutting edge, Paris Fashion week is the thing to follow. Nobody, literally NOBODY, does a better job making fashion knowledge more accessible than Bliss Foster. Him and his wife Daniella just released a nearly two hour video diagnostic of PFW with chapters labeling each designer they saw at men’s week. You won’t regret tapping in…
