Building the right transition wardrobe is all about versatility. Finding ways to make lighter layers work for you by layering up. When you master layering, spring and fall will be more fun and more comfortable, and you can experiment with combining colors, textures, and fabrics. While layering up for the unpredictable rain, winds, and second winters that rudely horn in on the beginning of baseball season, a good sweater is vital for that goal. The Alex Crane Bay Sweater is one of their best sellers every year, and there is a handful of reasons why. The 100% organic cotton is light enough to serve as a layering piece and warm enough to keep you guarded against the unpredictable weather changes.

Understated elegance for spring style

Why use organic cotton? Because it is grown without fertilizers or pesticides and uses 70% less water than conventional cotton. Alex Crane grows their organic cotton in northern India, in the state of Punjab. Cotton is naturally soft, durable, and breathable. Only 1% of global cotton production is organic, so AC looks to help increase that percentage. These Bay Sweaters are made in Romania, in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains, meaning they can source the cotton straight from the sources all over Europe. Now that you have chosen the best cotton sweater for this season, you can style it with a henley or a button-down underneath or a great textured overshirt or jacket over the top of it. The bone, pine, and king colorways are the perfect way to stand out for the current season.

Why you should be wearing the biggest underwear brand you’ve never heard of
Pair of Thieves is the third biggest underwear brand and they think your balls will love their fabric
Person, Body Part, Finger

I talk a lot about the importance of style. Fit, function, and fashion come together to make your personal appearance a reflection of who you are and who you intend to be. The value of quality over brand names. The importance of good tailoring over fast fashion. Wearing a suit the right way. The best shoes for your look. The way you can send a message without ever opening your mouth. But you know what I don't ever talk about? Skivvies. That's right, I don't talk about underwear. You know why? Because it is something that I (and I reckon you too) just don't think about. But, in ten minutes with David Ehrenberg, CEO of Pair of Thieves, that all changed. I started thinking about underwear. And he convinced me to try his brand, because he was certain that my balls would love it. He was right. But what is it about Pair of Thieves, and underwear in general, that made them skyrocket to the top of an industry most men don't think about?

Our goal isn't to make underwear some aspirational luxury item– it's to make it the best part of getting dressed. That's reflected in our fabric, our fit, and how closely we listen to real customer feedback. We see underwear as part of personal care, and upgrading it should feel easy, accessible, and genuinely worth it. - David Ehrenberg CEO Pair of Thieves
