That’s where Dickies comes into play. Its Dickies 1922 Collection takes it all the way back to the company’s storied American heritage with a full set of vintage-inspired, archival — and importantly, American-made — menswear that’s perfect for any time of year.

The Dickies 1922 Collection simply represents some of our new favorite menswear of the moment — and to make things easy on you, we’ve rounded up our top picks from this new Dickies collection below. After all, the brand is so much more than just tough work pants.

This new Cartier watch tells time backwards
Turn back time with the new Santos
Cartier Rewind on wrist

Wristwatches may be distinctly masculine pieces of hardware now, thanks to some very popular people in pop culture and in our own history adopting them.
