Shop The Brooks Brothers Supima Collection Men’s Summer Style Essentials

The Brooks Brothers Supima Collection has all your summer essentials — including your new favorite summer polo and your favorite summer chinos. The good news? There’s more where that came from. Lighter textures and fabrics are a prime summer calling card, and there isn’t a collection out there that makes better use of fine cotton in ways both innovative and classic.

That makes several pieces from the Brooks Brothers Supima Collection a must-have in your summer wardrobe. And if you wanted even more Supima cotton in your life (right down to your bedding or towels)? Brooks Brothers has got those boxes checked off for you, too.

From the casual and effective Supima Cotton Sport Shirt in a handsome shade of navy, to dressier, summer suit-ready pieces like the Milano Ground Stripe Dress Shirt, the best of the best (that’d be Supima cotton) is prevalent throughout the line. Only an elite variety of cotton grown in the American West and Southwest gets that unique distinction, so it’s an all-American collection through and through.

And the brand’s celebration of high-quality Supima cotton extends beyond just the clothes themselves — Brooks Brothers is running an extensive ad campaign featuring everything from NYC subway ads and in-store displays highlighting stylish Supima cotton offerings. Notably, the brand is bringing back its Performance Polo, an instantly recognizable garment offered in a stunning array of colors.

You can — and potentially should — buy one in a few different shades. Why’s that? The Supima cotton polos are finished with performance treatment to stand up to sweltering summer weather. On top of that, select styles of the brand’s pants feature Supima cotton, including bright, eye-catching Supima Cotton Stretch Chinos. They’re practically the perfect pant to pair with your Performance Polo, too. Even some of the brand’s home goods feature Supima cotton, making them a luxurious and worthwhile buy when it comes time to upgrade your bathroom in the months ahead. The Brooks Brothers Supima Collection is definitely a one-stop shop, and it’s got something for everyone.

Overland is the king of ski towns: Celebrating 50 years of American mountain west outerwear
How did Overland win over the mountain town
Taos Storefront 2023

Every industry has its mainstay brands that only get stronger with more competition. There will always be some new and fresh idea that challenges all those before it and tries to change the industry. Then there are those brands they face, who have been around for decades, weaving in and out of competition and outlasting every challenge thrown their way. For every new and exciting watch brand, there is a Rolex standing strong. While there are plenty of explanations for why a brand outshines every other around it, Overland Sheepskin Co. has an explanation all its own. On this, their 50th year, we look back and try to understand how this family-owned business became the King of the Mountain towns and what keeps them on top.

Back in 1973, the flagship store in Taos, New Mexico, took a bale of sheepskin and a sewing machine and began creating coats, hats, and mittens for the surrounding area. As word began to spread about their quality, the whole family had to pitch in to help out to meet the growing demand. Five decades later, with 17 stores throughout the Rocky Mountains and across the country, they have become a mainstay in the mountain and ski towns for their quality and dependability. We got a chance to sit down with Monty Goodson, manager of the Santa Fe store and a buyer for the company, to find out how they did it and how they maintain the culture that has made them who they are today.
