Anyway, let’s tap into today.

Paul Smith Lark Burnished Leather Derby Shoes

These Paul Smith derbies arrive in burnished bovine leather from Italy, a finish that gets richer with each wear. The rubber sole keeps them practical for city walks, while the construction follows classic Italian shoe-making methods. We're drawn to the deep brown shade that works as well with denim as it does with tailoring. Paul Smith kept these clean and minimal, letting the leather's natural grain and depth do all the talking.

Maison Margiela Distressed Velvet Derby Shoes

Margiela takes the formal derby and roughens it up with distressed polyester velvet in pure black. The leather sole and classic lace-up construction maintain the shoe's dressy bones, while that beaten-up velvet surface makes them feel lived-in from day one. This is Margiela doing what they do best: taking something proper and adding just enough edge to make it interesting. The low heel keeps them comfortable for all-day wear.

You already know… the Normie Jean is TIM’s favorite jean. And now you can have your own for 80 cents on the dollar.

AYR The Normie Jeans

The Normie in Cowboss wash is AYR's take on broken-in denim that uses organic cotton, lyocell, and recycled cotton spun together in LA. The straight leg and button fly keep things classic, while the 10-inch rise and leg opening hit that sweet spot between relaxed and sharp. These jeans come pre-softened through AYR's washing process, skipping years of break-in time. Made at a California factory with 30 years of denim expertise, they're built to last without the stiffness.

AYR The Club Jacket

The Club jacket comes in two materials: stone-washed cotton-hemp denim for lighter days or waxed cotton from Britain's Millerain mill for weather protection. This zippered jacket has an adjustable drawcord and develops character through wear, especially the waxed version that gains patina over time. The cut works for three seasons without feeling heavy or restricting movement. AYR designed this as their answer to the jacket you grab without thinking. Simple enough for everything, solid enough to last.

Gramicci Gadget Pant

Gramicci's Gadget Pant uses 100% organic cotton twill with wrap-around pockets that stretch from front to back, made with tough canvas for contrast after garment dyeing. The webbing belt with the brand logo holds keys and bottles, while the low rise and slim fit inseam keep the silhouette modern. These pants handle the demands of climbing (Gramicci's roots) while working for city life with their flexible waistband and easy-adjust belt. The vintage wash and soft hand feel come standard, no break-in required.

Gramicci Sierra Cargo Pant

The Sierra Cargo takes Gramicci's climbing DNA and adds military-spec cargo pockets. An integrated nylon cinch belt system lets you adjust without hardware, while the diamond crotch gusset (lol) and drawcord hems give you movement and fit options. The wide fit and 31-inch inseam create volume that works with chunky sneakers or boots. These pants bridge the gap between technical climbing gear and streetwear, with pockets deep enough for actual use rather than decoration.

Gobi Cashmere Raglan Sweater

This Gobi raglan represents the thin side of cashmere: 100% Mongolian fiber spun light enough for layering but substantial enough to wear solo. The raglan sleeves give a relaxed fit through the shoulders, perfect for movement without bunching under jackets. Gobi sources directly from Mongolian herders, keeping the supply chain short and the quality high. At this weight, the sweater works from early fall through spring, making it the cashmere piece that earns its keep year-round.

Vince Donegal Cashmere Raglan-Sleeve Sweater

Vince brings thickness to the cashmere conversation with this Donegal-flecked raglan in 100% cashmere with multicolor texture throughout. The fully fashioned construction and rib-knit trim keep the shape intact through seasons of wear, while the Donegal finish adds visual depth without pattern commitment. This is investment cashmere, the kind you reach for when the temperature drops and you want substance without sacrificing softness. The raglan cut modernizes what could feel traditional, keeping it relevant rather than stuffy.

Madewell The McCarren Midweight Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt

The McCarren uses midweight French terry in an 85% cotton, 15% polyester blend that feels broken-in from the start. Madewell gave it a mockneck collar, quarter-zip closure, and slightly tapered waist that splits the difference between athletic and refined. The relaxed fit with dropped shoulders keeps it comfortable without looking sloppy at the office. Named after Brooklyn's McCarren Park (this is a gentrification bellwether FYI), this sweatshirt works under blazers or solo, bringing weekend ease to weekday dressing.

Madewell Button-Up Shirt in Fine-Wale Corduroy

This chocolate raisin corduroy shirt brings texture to your rotation through fine-wale 100% cotton construction. Madewell cut it with their standard button-down proportions (not too slim, not too boxy) making it reliable for tucked or untucked wear. The fine wales keep it from reading too casual or too '70s professor, landing instead in that useful middle ground. Cotton corduroy at this weight layers well under sweaters or stands alone, giving you options as seasons shift.
