Bespoke tailoring has been the most luxurious ways to buy a suit. Not only is the fit going to be just right, with impeccable tailoring being more important than anything else in suiting, but it is a personal expression that sends a loud message. That doesn’t mean it is the only way. Ready-to-wear took the world by storm as men began to have less and less time to spend (or wait) for their clothing. Cad & Dandy, who has spent centuries outfitting men on the legendary Savile Row in London, hasn’t been left behind as they look to expand their New York presence with a ready-to-wear space on Billionaire’s Row.

“At Cad & The Dandy, we have become known as a house with a truly defined style, making garments by hand with exceptional skill that are both elegant and easy to wear whether that be bespoke or our ready to wear. The opportunity to expand into New York with our second premises in the city is an exciting step for the brand and I hope this becomes one of many new shops in our planned company expansion,” explains Co-owner of Cad & The Dandy James Sleater.

If you have ever wondered why James Bond always looks great, it is because he focuses on timeless style and impeccable tailoring. Cad & Dandy takes their classic English style focusing on garments that stand the test of time and take out the weeks of wait surrounding the bespoke process.

“Our collection is curated to embrace the elegance of classic English style, made by hand and without compromise,” says Co-owner of Cad & The Dandy Ian Meiers. “We take pride in offering a distinct alternative to the prevailing Italian-influenced designs often found in New York. Our garments epitomize traditional English tailoring with more structure, shape, and impeccable attention to detail. This collection is a testament to our commitment to preserving our tailoring heritage while offering a sophisticated and contemporary choice.”

Coming in October, you can visit their Billionaire’s Row space and come out looking like James Bond with impeccable tailoring and classic styles.

There is a sweet spot for the outdoors. While the most dedicated of outdoorsmen will venture out into the wild unknown at virtually anytime rain or shine, completely unbothered by the 105 degree heat or the frigid 25 degree cold, there is a comfortable place in between where the weather is great in the fall. There is also the added bonus of the fall foliage making us want to stay lost in the woods until the winter hits. Whether you are the first kind of guy who is unafraid of the weather or the pickier guy who likes to stay comfortable, Wrangler has released there All Terrain Gear (ATG) to keep you warm, dry, and focused on the nature around you.
Keeping men outdoors in the fall

Whether you are a hunter venturing out to get your catch of the season, a hiker looking to find the lost areas of the wilderness untouched by civilization, a camper content on sleeping under the stars, or a combination of the three, ATG has something for you. With a focus on athletic movement, sun protection, stretch technology, warmth, and storage, the line of shirts and pants will make even the pickiest of outdoorsmen happy. For the hiker, there is the Dover shirt featuring a back vent and SPF 30. For the camper there is the Sierra Overshirt and the fleece lined pant to keep you warm until the fire is started.

Bonobos channels two basic ideas for the fall line, and we love it

This brand looks to go back to basics

bonobos fall 2024 pant tag

If you have never been in a Bonobos store, you may be a little thrown the first time. There is only one of each garment. It is a store that is minimal, clean, and not at all the chaotic overturned stacks in the mall stores you're used to. And that is a designed effect, cutting down on mass-produced waste. The shopping experience is meant to be more tailored to you. Your specific sizing and fit profile are taken, and if there is something you like, you order your perfect size, and it is sent to your home. Like an in-person online experience.

The brand began with the momentum of some innovative pants the creator, Brian Spaly created in Stanford Business School with a curved waistline...an upgrade on the regular khaki pant. Now, they are focused on two simple concepts for their fall line that continue their sustainable mindset.

Eton steps out of the boardroom with 2024 collection

Eton's New products Signal Expansion

Man in Eton shirt and suit

"Never hand over a shirt until you are satisfied with it." This was the philosophy of the founder of Eton when they built it from the ground up during the Great Depression. They have turned it into a company well known in the industry for some of the best dress shirts in the business. If you are a professional man, you likely have an Eton dress shirt in your repertoire. If you don't, then you should want one. They stepped out in their fall line to not only continue this excellence with new Supima Cotton Dress Shirts that represent less than 1% of the global cotton production, but with new products that push them into new undiscovered territories.
Stepping outside the comfort zone

The first new products the fall line offers are a couple of padded vests that take you from the board room to your personal life. They are offered in both flannel lined and Poly Fabric, both featuring Comfortemp technology. They also offer a a luxe blouson jacket and a new line of knitwear that include sweaters and long sleeve polos. Eton names this new line for the fall Business Class, the kind of clothing that takes you out of the office. Stepping away from simply the best dress shirts and providing more lifestyle wear could take a company like Eton, built on and dedicated to excellence, into the stratosphere in menswear.
