EDITOR’S NOTE

Tomorrow isn’t guaranteed. Don’t push anything off. Do it now.

Anyway, let’s tap into today.

LUXURY
Father Issey

Issey Miyake's Homme Plissé line brings its iconic pleating to a sleek cardigan. The Rustic Knit Sweater features a full button-down design with a big patch pockets, offering a functional take on knitwear. Made from 65% wool, this piece maintains its shape while providing comfort and ease of movement. The cardigan comes in a rich dark chocolate hue, perfect for adding a touch of texture to your outfit.

WORKWEAR
Cord + Sherpa = Cop

Marine Layer's Boise Corduroy Trucker jacket offers a fresh take on the classic denim jacket style. Made from soft corduroy, it features a button-up front, chest pockets, and side pockets for added utility. The jacket comes in three colors - navy, olive, and camel - and is designed with a regular fit for comfort. It's a cozy option for cooler days that can easily be layered over a tee or button-up shirt.

STREETWEAR
Boxy Pleats

These wavy babies, They’re Sage Nation’s Box Pleat Trousers, are not for beginners. They’re not cropped, they’re scooped. They’re not baggy, they’re flowy. To be honest, the cavernous front pleat on these boys look more like the signature torn canvases of postwar avant-garde painter Luciano Fontana than they do a pair of pants to wear. Deep cut references aside, I really love the way these fall on the model and think that the texture, fabric quality and drape are amazing for a street fit. Tap in.

FORMAL WEAR
Refined Italian Wool Pleats

Sticking with pleating but eliminating the edge, we move onto Todd Snyder. The Italian Gabardine Wythe Trouser in stone offers more subtle dress pant employ of the pleat. Made from a 4-ply wool gabardine, these trousers are light, airy, and tough. The cut is relaxed with a straight leg, single pleat, and crease for a clean look. Side tabs and a split back waist add tailored details to these comfy, stylish pants that can be paired with a matching jacket for a full suit.

OFFICE WEAR
L.L. Bean Cord

L.L.Bean's Rangeley Corduroy Shirt offers a cozy option for cooler days. The slightly fitted design features a soft cotton blend fabric with a subtle texture. This button-down comes in several earthy colors and includes two chest pockets for added utility/trinkets. Machine washable and dryer-safe, it's an easy-care shirt for casual wear.

ONE LAST THING….
Vans but Luxe

Everyone knows somebody still rocking Vans slip-ons. Somehow I found an ultra luxe version of them made of nubuck leather with a padded insert and leather padding. It’s a hybrid between loafers and Daniel with the white vans.
