EDITOR’S NOTE
Rainy weekend coming up in New York. I’m definitely going to watch Conclave to prep for next week, but I’m open to other suggestions.

I’m hearing great things about Sinners and love that it’s a new idea (not a sequel). Anyone else seconding? If yes, can I wait for streaming, or is the horror genre meant to be seen in theaters?
Anyway, let’s tap into today.
STREETWEAR
Monitaly Jackets: Thank you.
Monitaly's Italian Jail Jacket in blue is made from 100% cotton with smart design details that make it worth a look. The jacket has a three-button front with an extra small button and loop on top for those windy days. It comes with two patch pockets on the torso and one chest pocket, all with bar tack stitching for added strength. The set-in sleeves give a smooth fit, and the inside has a unique curved facing that nods to vintage craft we can all enjoy.
The other Jail Jacket is a brand staple that blends simple looks with smart design details. The jacket has set-in sleeves for a smooth fit, a three-button front with an extra loop on top, and three pockets with bar tack stitching for added strength. Made from 100% cotton using a unique panel-sewn method by nomadic tribes, each piece is one-of-a-kind with narrow hand-loomed panels joined together. The fit runs large, so size down for a snug look or stick with your usual size for a roomier feel.
OFFICE WEAR
18 East: Dressed Up & Dressed Down
18 East's new Chestnut Button-Down Shirt draws from the striped awnings of Shelter Island homes, with a unique design that shows off both craft and style. The shirt has 3D natural stripes woven into the cloth, hand block printed awnings on the back, and patchwork hand work on the front in a dusty brown that matches those beach houses. Made from 100% jacquard cotton in India, this shirt runs a bit big, so you can stick with your normal size or go up for a looser fit. We love how the hand-made parts bring out the charm of the weave's little quirks.
The Grahame Big Tee from 18 East comes in a washed navy color, made from heavy cotton jersey that gives it a lived-in feel right out of the box. This tee has drop shoulders and half sleeves for a roomy fit, plus a unique "Hands" woven label at the left hem that adds a subtle design touch. The enzyme wash finish makes this shirt feel like an old friend from day one, perfect for those of us who hate the stiff feel of brand-new tees. At $58, it's part of 18 East's current lineup, along with their black version of the same style.
LUXURY
Cozy Knit
Our Legacy's Evening Polo in Livid Blue Fuzzy Alpaca is a boxy, relaxed fit piece made from a fine Italian blend of alpaca, wool, and polyamide. The polo has a peaked collar, mother of pearl buttons, and a deep ribbed hem that adds to its unique charm. The lively blue color pops, while the plush alpaca gives it a slight fuzz that adds texture and feels cozy against the skin. We love how this knit polo brings a touch of luxury to a casual style with its soft yarn and clean lines.
WORKWEAR
Duck Canvas x2
Dickies has a new Fully Waxed Canvas Chore Coat that's built to last and keep you dry. This coat has a tough 10oz waxed canvas shell with 8oz flannel lining for extra warmth when the weather turns bad. The design keeps things simple with snap closures and handy cargo pockets that let you stash your stuff while you work or hang out. We can't wait to see how this moss green jacket ages with wear - waxed canvas just gets better with time.
Up next is a rugged Duck Canvas Long Sleeve Utility Shirt that blends work and casual style. Made from tough duck canvas, this shirt has a relaxed fit that allows for easy movement while still looking sharp. The soft feel adds comfort to its hard-wearing nature, making it ideal for daily wear. With details like a seven-button front, banded collar, and hex-style pockets (one with a pencil stall), this shirt is both useful and good-looking for our busy lives.
FORMAL WEAR
On Seersucker
Fursac's green striped casual jacket brings a touch of French chic to your spring and summer looks. This seersucker piece has a clean, straight cut with a half-lined body for comfort in warm weather. The single-breasted design with two buttons keeps things simple and sleek, while the cotton fabric gives a light, airy feel that's ideal for the months ahead. This number hits just the right spot to pair with chinos or even dress shorts when the heat kicks in. We love how the green stripes add visual appeal without being too loud-making this an easy jacket to dress up or down.
