EDITOR’S NOTE
For those wondering, I got a biannual dental cleaning today and have zero cavities. I’ve had a watch on 12 — the second bicuspid — since last summer, but I wasn’t due up for X-rays today, so we’ll find out more in July.
Anyway, let’s tap into today.
LUXURY
Après Toolkit
Loro Piana's Taishi jacket blends Italian craftsmanship with Japanese-inspired design. Made from a wool-silk blend, this unlined blazer features a unique kimono-style collar and patch pockets. The jacket's relaxed fit and soft construction make it ideal for layering in various settings. Its deep blue hue adds a touch of elegance to any outfit, whether worn casually or dressed up.
Zegna might call these ski pants, but they are are all après and no ski. Zegna's Cashco Ski Pants blend style and sport for “the slopes.” These pants feature a waterproof outer layer and cozy inner lining, keeping you dry and warm during winter sports or shot-skis. The slim fit and side pockets add a modern touch, while the elastic waist and ankle cuffs ensure a snug fit. Zegna crafts these pants from a mix of cotton, nylon, and elastane for comfort and movement.
WORKWEAR
Workwear, but make it fashun
I was today years old when I found out that Caterpillar, the heavy construction and mining equipment company, makes and sells workwear on their website… The Mix Media Chore Jacket from CATWWR brings a stylish edge to workwear. This jacket blends cotton twill and corduroy panels for a unique look and texture. It features four front pockets, a button closure, and a boxy fit that's on-trend for the category. The multicolor design adds visual interest, making it a great layering piece for casual outfits.
This goes well with the CAT jacket above! Stan Ray's Double Knee Pant in Antique Khaki Duck is a sturdy workwear staple. The pants feature a relaxed fit with a straight leg, double-layer knees for added strength, and multiple pockets for tools. Made from 100% cotton duck fabric, these pants are tough enough for job sites but comfy for everyday wear. The classic khaki color pairs well with various tops, making them a useful addition to your casual wardrobe.
STREETWEAR
Fancy Steez
Clark’s teamed up with Ravani for a fresh spin on their iconic Wallabee. This collab merges the comfy Wallabee sole with a sleek loafer upper, creating a hybrid that's both casual and refined. The shoe sports a rich brown suede and a chunky crêpe sole, perfect for adding some flair to your everyday looks. It's a smart choice for those who want to step up their shoe game without going too wild.
The God Willing Varsity Jacket from Menace Los Angeles brings a bright, southern California edge to a the classic vartisty style. This wool-blend jacket features leather sleeves and a snap button closure, perfect for layering in cooler weather. The bold "God Willing" text on the back is noisy, and the subtext below is arrogant. Meanwhile, the ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem ensure a snug fit. It's a great choice for those looking to make a statement.
FORMAL WEAR
Country Club Formality
Drake's teams up with A. Levine for a sleek update to the classic penny loafer. The Charles MK II features a black suede upper, hand-sewn apron, and a Goodyear-welted sole for long-lasting wear. This shoe pairs well with both casual and formal outfits, making it a smart choice for various events. The loafer's design includes a leather lining and insole for comfort, while the rubber heel adds grip and support.
In honor of the year’s first ATP Grand Slam, Brooks Brothers brings back the tennis cardigan with a vintage-inspired design. This white Supima cotton sweater features a V-neck, ribbed trim, and a cable-knit pattern. The cardigan's soft texture and relaxed fit make it ideal for layering over a polo or button-down shirt. It's a smart choice for those who want to add a touch of prep to their casual or smart-casual outfits.
OFFICE WEAR
Commuting Jackets
Brooks Brothers also has this Explorer Collection Tech Puffer, a clean take on winter wear. This jacket blends style with comfort, using a water-repellent fabric and 650-fill power down insulation to keep you cozy in cold weather. The puffer features a stand collar, zip front, and side pockets for added utility. Available in gray, navy, and olive, this jacket is perfect for the man who values both fashion and function in his winter wardrobe.
J.Crew's Nordic Parka is a winter-ready coat that keeps you cozy in harsh weather. The outer shell repels water and wind, while PrimaLoft insulation traps heat inside. This parka features a roomy hood, multiple pockets, and a two-way zipper for easy movement. Its clean design works well for both city streets and outdoor adventures.
ONE LAST THING….
Please watch Severance

Apple TV
Clips from season one’s five-minute MDE (music dance experience). This alone made me excited about season two of Severance, which had its first episode release yesterday. One of the weirdest shows I’ve ever watched, but one that I want more of. Tap in.
