Bluffwork pants will change the way you travel

By Cator Sparks June 21, 2016

Jogging pants on a plane anyone? We don’t condone it. The reason(s)?

We are a menswear style website
We like looking good and not like a cheese bag
We discovered Bluff Works

Founded by a gentleman named Stefan who worked at a software company but dreamed of the Life of Riley, he came up with a travel pant that would work hiking in the desert of Egypt to dinner at the hotel that evening. We tried out a pair on a recent trip from Charleston to Rome to Sicily to Jersey (the one in the English Channel!) to London to Charleston. Let us tell you we will never travel without our Bluffworks.
Why?

You can wad them up and they roll out handsomely.

They look great but feel like wearing pajamas on those eight hour overnight flights.

There is a hidden pocket for your phone and a zip pocket for your passport.

Awesome fit. We thought The Originals were a little grandpa but The Chinos offer a more tailored fit, which we dig.

They are quick drying, breathable and moisture wicking.

They are made in New York City. Woot!

The pants come in a variety of colors so stock up for your various travels. They are also amazing for bike commuters (like us!) and lightweight enough to wear all summer.

Yvon Chouinard Patagonia

On September 15, Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard announced that he and his family are transferring 100% of the company’s voting stock to the Patagonia Purpose Trust and 100% of its non-voting stock to the Holdfast Collective, to ensure the company will keep its independence and direct all of profits to combat climate change now and in perpetuity. According to The Washington Post, Patagonia is worth about $3 billion right now and its annual profits donated could total $100 million every year.

“As we began to witness the extent of global warming and ecological destruction, and our own contribution to it, Patagonia committed to using our company to change the way business was done,” he wrote in a letter on the company’s website.

8 Fool-Proof Ways To Wear a Bandana (Yes, You Can Pull It Off)

One of the most classic and adaptable — yet overlooked and underrated — men’s accessories is the lowly bandana. While our great-grandfathers were just as likely to grab ‘em to blow their noses or mop their sweaty brows, today we’re likely to use them as anything from stylish SPF for our scalps to necktie substitutes to ersatz belts. The right bandana can handily transform ho-hum jeans and a t-shirt into a credible outfit as quickly as popping on a hat or a beanie.

Why You Should Rock a Pair of Flannel-Lined Jeans

Flannel-Lined Jeans

Ah, shoulder season, the purgatory period of the calendar year. It’s cold, it’s windy, it’s gray, and most of all, it’s mercurial. You can wake up to the sun shining and think winter is finally over, only to learn upon leaving the house that snow flurries are expected later in the day. Not only is this psychologically onerous, but it presents a deep quandary when getting dressed. If you can’t predict the weather, what are you supposed to wear?

Choosing your wardrobe from the waist up remains relatively straightforward in shoulder season — just layer up or strip down as needed. But alas, there’s no such solution for your lower hemisphere. It’s either put up with a few more months of bulky base layers or grit your teeth as the cold blows right through your Japanese selvage denim.
