Spring represents new life and that’s including your wardrobe. Spring is the transitional season when you pack up all your heavy sweaters, coats, and gloves to make room for your spring/summer wardrobe. As soon as that first nice spring day hits you may want to toss your outerwear in storage, but sadly that may be a bit premature. Spring also brings unpredictable weather that can be sunny one day, rainy the next, or just downright cloudy and cold.

Layering and outerwear should still very much be an important part of your spring wardrobe … no matter how much you want to say good riddance after a brutal winter. Men’s statement jackets are perfect for spring weather, as they are lighter and less bulky while still adding personal style.

‘Made in America’: Paul Fredrick celebrates 40 years of style
Accessories, Formal Wear, Tie

There are a handful of brands that you know just by feel. You can get dressed blindfolded and know by the quality of the fabric and the construction of the garment what you are picking up. Paul Fredrick is one of those brands for me. From their shirts to their jackets, Paul Fredrick has always been a dependable go-to whether in my day-to-day or in my dressier moments. They are celebrating that heritage this fall with the release of their new collection, Made in America, in honor of their fortieth anniversary.

To honor our brand’s history, we returned to our roots, crafting garments in American factories. This limited-run collection draws inspiration from the 1920s, when fashion reemerged as a powerful form of self-expression after the First World War. A century later, we are seeing that same appetite for expressive dressing. – Paul Fredrick

80 grand for this new G-Shock? Casio says it’s worth it
Watch, Face, Numbers

Sapphire is great at plenty of things: resisting scratches, looking expensive, and… shattering when you drop it. That last one isn’t normally an issue for a G-Shock, a watch whose whole personality is built around not breaking at all.

So naturally, Casio had to challenge the status quo, and spent roughly eight years making a G-Shock out of sapphire.
