The weather is about what you would expect on Christmas Day. It is cold, but we know that we are in for colder months ahead of us. If you are in the country’s northern parts, you know full well that you have at least another 90 days of blistery cold winds and deep snowfalls in front of you. Now that you have seen all you’re getting gifted for Christmas, it is time to prepare your closet with some new coats for the cold weather ahead. Cad & The Dandy started in 2008 as the future of Savile Row, and they held up that end of the bargain by becoming the largest bespoke tailor on the legendary street. Earlier this year, they arrived in New York with a ready-to-wear store that brought Savile Row to New York, and now they have just what you need for the next few months. The Cad & Dandy Outerwear collection is the best way to start their time in the Big Apple.

Every coat you need for your closet

Putting together an excellent coat collection means scanning everything from casual to dress and finding the most versatile options to keep you from buying many coats for every occasion. Instead, you can look to the outerwear collection from C&TD to find all you need for any event you have coming up. You can pick up the technical field jacket for anything on the more casual side of the dress code and opt for the double-breasted peak lapel herringbone for the more elevated events you attend. For the moments in between, grab one of the suede safari jackets. And for the moment you want to stand out, grab the Greatcoat for something a little more eyecatching.

Bespoke Post’s Spring and Summer collection is comprised of three brands not on your radar

Any brand worth its salt has (or at least considered) some sort of subscription service. Sure, there is a bit of an oversaturated market out there, so it may feel more like they should wait it out. But the old dogs that have been doing it for a while are still going strong. One of the first to offer a men's focused subscription service is Bespoke Post. Make one monthly payment, and you get a package with some of the coolest dude-centered gear you could ask for. I got a pretty sweet weekender bag modeled after an old-school tool bag my grandfather used to carry. There was an excellent knife in there somewhere. And the list of stellar gear for the exceptional man goes on. But now they have expanded and you may not know that they have three sensational lines of clothing that also come in the shipments. The Bespoke Post Spring and Summer collection is comprised of three brands you need to know about and some great picks within them.

Dockers is one of the most popular brands of pants of all time. Growing up, there was always a saying around my house to put on your Dockers when you were getting ready to leave the house. That was used anytime you were to get dressed in something other than jeans. Kleenex is what we called facial tissues, Band-Aids took over the word adhesive bandage, Chapstick was the stand-in for lip balm, and finally, Scotch Tape took over clear adhesive tape. How do you become a brand name that overtakes an entire industry for a product? Be the best. And Dockers became the best and the only go-to for us and countless other families. Now, they are looking to continue that trend by obsessing over your pants so you can get on with your life and not have to think about them. The Dockers "Always a Fit" campaign is looking to redefine the brand for the future with phase one, "Priorities."

Spring style: Snaps Clothing, Jay DeMarcus lead the pearl snap shirt’s comeback

When I was a kid, I watched my grandfather work on his farm season in and season out, seven days a week from sun up to sun down, without ever abandoning one of his most trusted pieces, the pearl snap shirt. While I always viewed this kind of shirt (he had at least 100 of them in his closet and my grandmother continued to make more and more for him as the years went on) as something specifically made for farmers, there has been a resurgence of this shirt into the mainstream, thanks in large part to Yellowstone and its push of the western wear trend that has returned to the forefront of style. Now, as we look towards the seasonal change and start shopping for spring shirts for men, it isn't surprising that we still see pearl snaps everywhere.

Of course, not all pearl snap shirts are created equal, and Snaps Clothing has emerged as one of the top games in town. They aren't resting on their laurels, though, and they are stepping it up in a real way this spring as they have teamed with Jay DeMarcus of Rascal Flatts to create the perfect shirt for him to wear on the road.
