The Pacific Northwest is one of the most picturesque areas in the United States, maybe the world. The wooded areas are home to countless animal species and the kind of wilderness you can get lost in, both in the good ways like camping, hiking, and forest bathing and in the bad ways where you could never be heard from again. That is why heading out into these woods and experiencing the beautiful dangers of the wilderness requires planning, gear, and, for Danner, the right apparel and footwear. That is why the company dropped the Danner Performance Heritage Collection, which prepares you to face everything the beautiful landscapes offer.

The 46-piece collection contains men’s, women’s, and unisex pieces ranging from outerwear to pants to hats, keeping you warm, dry, and enjoying every moment outdoors.

Deeply rooted in the PNW

There is no one better to trust to get you around the woods and the outdoors than the people who spend time in the environment themselves. Danner is deeply rooted in the Pacific Northwest, making them the clear go-to experts for all things woodland excursion.

“The Performance Heritage Collection reflects the casualness of how folks enjoy the outdoors in the PNW—our backyard. We can be in the middle of the woods, stand in a river, and adore rock formations in the high desert all on the same day,” Yoji Kaneda, Director of Lifestyle Footwear/Apparel for Danner, says of his friends and family in the area. “The variety of materials used in this collection ranges from natural materials like cotton, leather, and down, combined with technical water-resistant treatments and modern materials like Cordura, GORE-TEX, and Primaloft. The styles are a reflection of our material knowledge learned from decades of boot-making history. Sometimes, garments don’t need to look or feel a certain way to enjoy the outdoors.”

Baseballism reminds you to live your life with Jackie Robinson collection for his day
Celebrate Jackie Robinson Day and live your life like a legend
Baseballism 42

April 15th is an important day in the United States. It's not a day we've ever really looked forward to: the day when your taxes are due. That was until 2004, when Major League Baseball instituted Jackie Robinson Day. While there have been many legends to play between the chalk and bring decades of joy and exhileration to fans of America's Pasttime, Robinson is the only one to have his number 42 retired all across the sport, and a day that honors him with every player in the league wearing that number for the day. Baseballism is the go-to place for all things baseball fandom, and this year, they released a collection of Jackie Robinson-inspired gear featuring the number 42 for fans of the league to wear. But the legend of Robinson and the clothing you wear from the Baseballism Jackie Robinson Day collection is more than baseball; it transcends the game, the same way he did.

Any brand worth its salt has (or at least considered) some sort of subscription service. Sure, there is a bit of an oversaturated market out there, so it may feel more like they should wait it out. But the old dogs that have been doing it for a while are still going strong. One of the first to offer a men's focused subscription service is Bespoke Post. Make one monthly payment, and you get a package with some of the coolest dude-centered gear you could ask for. I got a pretty sweet weekender bag modeled after an old-school tool bag my grandfather used to carry. There was an excellent knife in there somewhere. And the list of stellar gear for the exceptional man goes on. But now they have expanded and you may not know that they have three sensational lines of clothing that also come in the shipments. The Bespoke Post Spring and Summer collection is comprised of three brands you need to know about and some great picks within them.

Paul Smith and Lee reach back to their roots in new collection
Lee x Paul Smith is one of the more important collabs in jeans
Lee x Paul Smith Deneille Robert Percival and Emil Sands

Lee Jeans has been a staple in the denim industry for 50 years, with some of the best workwear on the market. Paul Smith has been a mainstay in England thanks to his dedication to creativity, positivity, and curiosity. The two came together in the 70s to launch Paul Smith's iconic Painters Jeans, distributed in the States by Lee. Five and a half decades later, the two are collaborating again to release a 14-piece limited edition collection that includes jeans, denim jackets, western-style shirts, and T-shirts. The Lee x Paul Smith collection takes the Lee 101 jeans and 101 Stormrider jacket, Lee chore jacket, western shirt, and carpenter pant to reimagine them in distinct Paul Smith patterns like his classic pinstripes and a playful washed jacquard.

“Paul Smith is renowned for its ‘classic with a twist’ aesthetic which fits authentically with Lee’s timeless style. Fans around the world have been waiting for this capsule since June’s initial announcement. At Lee, we can’t wait to see the momentum and excitement the launch generates for both brands.” - Jenni Broyles, Executive Vice-President & Global Brands President, Lee.
