A Breath of Summer with Onia Resort

It may be cold, cloudy and wet where you are living at the moment so we thought we would post some pictures of warm weather wear to remind you it won’t last forever.

Onia has rolled out their resort collection, just in time for those New Year getaways to tropical spots. In fact, Carl Cunow and Nathan Romano (the guys behind the line) were inspired by the spectacular landscapes and exotic wildlife of Costa Rica.

Derived from the Hebrew word for “ship”, Onia has quickly become a distinguished men’s swimwear brand that was created in 2009 as Cunow and Romano’s answer to too many ill-fitting board shorts, uninspired trunks and garish prints. Instead, they envisioned a sharper, smarter, more technical swimsuit that would function stylishly on the beach and beyond. They built Onia around fits and styles that would appeal to the design-conscious guy who wants a swimsuit that is functional, frill-free and flattering. And guys are lining up to by up and give thanks.

Onia uses the highest quality sourced materials from the mesh lining and woven ties to the functional pockets, clean finished seams and antique nickel hardware – details that tell a story of superior craftsmanship. Putting a premium on functionality, Onia features deep pockets for keys, wallets or board wax, snap closures to keep things secure and locker loops keep them handy.

We are fans of the great colors the guys chose for the Calder shorts (go on, try a kiwi color and brighten things up a bit!) and the Jack shirt may just be what we wear all summer with it’s comfy linen and cotton blend. So take a moment to daydream of the sound of the ocean, then book that trip and buy them shorts and you are good to go.

Serious Question: Why are you wearing anything OTHER than Taylor Stitch this fall?
Outdoors, Nature, Yard

Look, I am admitting it right here. The internet is forever. So I know I can never take this back. But I am not an unbiased journalist. Sure, I try to be objective in my reporting of brands and trends. But subjectively, I have favorites. Brands that speak to me. Brands that fit me well. The ones that define my lifestyle better than any others. Now that I have that off my chest, I can objectively say that there is no better brand for your casual wardrobe than Taylor Stitch. I have always loved them more than most, but this year, the Taylor Stitch F/W collection has me asking one very important question for all of you out there:

Why the Hell are you wearing anything other than Taylor Stitch this fall?

Christopher Ward’s new release turns its sporty Loco into a dress watch
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Can a watch be a dress watch if it’s got an in-your-face design element like, say, the balance wheel visibly spinning on the dial? Christopher Ward is betting yes.

The Maidenhead, England-based brand just launched their C1 Loco Classic, a dressed-up take on last year’s C12 Loco. That watch was an angular, brightly colored sports watch built around the brand’s in-house CW-003 movement.
