Fall Fashion Picks From DL1961, Falconeri, and Sanctuary

With fall colors dropping and autumn pants and shirts popping, this seems like the perfect time to look at a few new seasonal threads that might help to keep the Manual man warm and in vogue as colder days descend.

Sanctuary

This September, Los Angeles-based lifestyle brand Sanctuary launched its first foray into menswear. With over 20 years of fashion experience, Sanctuary aims to create an everyday men’s wardrobe that prioritizes design and function. 

In jumping into menswear, the brand not only leaned on its own experience, but partnered with 2253 Apparel to shape its first men’s drop. Garments include lightweight, relaxed logo tees, sweatshirts, a bomber jacket, denim and cotton button-ups, twill pants, and a classic straight jean. 

Camouflage and plaid prints go along with neutral colors that unfold throughout the lineup, providing the perfect opportunity to add some personality to your closet. Casual and comfortable, Sanctuary’s men’s line reflects current business culture while injecting style and character.

“In our ever changing society and times, the most powerful and enduring brands are built from the heart,” Sanctuary CEO Ken Polanco said. “With 2253 Apparel, we have found a void in the men’s marketplace for better fabrications, fit, and design at an affordable price point.”

You can find Sanctuary online at SanctuaryClothing.com and at select retailers including Macy’s and Nordstrom. Prices range from $39 – $139.

DL1961

DL 1961 enters fall adding to its already fashionable line of men’s slacks. This includes the Russell, its bestselling straight fit pants, now appearing in acorn, coastal plain, and rattan colors. Relaxed through the seat and thigh, the Russell is straight from the knee toward the ankle.

For a true slim-fit jean, look no further than the Nick with streamlined legs lean through the thigh all the way to the ankle. Rich deep forest and timber colors highlight the coming dark season, the Nick is always dyed with black oxide hardware to elicit super soft knit denim; $158. 

In its commitment to sustainable textiles, DL 1961 jeans are always constructed using shredded old denim and post-consumer waste woven into eco-friendly, high-performance yarn. Hand-finished using waterless laser and Ozone technologies in family-owned facilities, each pair of jeans takes less than 10 gallons of water to produce, as opposed to the industry average of 1,500 gallons. 

Falconeri

Two years after it entered the U.S. market, Italian clothing company Falconeri continues to put out sleek, stylin’ threads. The brand is also staying true to its goal of democratizing cashmere, offering the downy goat wool at an affordable price without compromising on the quality of the thread and broadcasting a transparent supply chain, from the Mongolian steppe to artisan production that ends at its commercial heart in Vigna Clara, Italy. 

This superior cashmere takes center stage in the Falconeri’s fall 2021 collection, featuring new styles and colors. Falconeri’s ‘Ultralight Cashmere Crew Neck Sweater’ sports 100% ultralight combed cashmere that’s distinguished by a special seamless knit. As a slim-fit shirt, it’s perfect either worn alone or under a jacket; beginning at $149.

All falls down: How Kanye’s recent behavior impacts his fashion legacy
The musician has a massive impact on popular fashion that can't just be canceled
A pair of Yeezy sneakers.

On October 3, 2022, Kanye West's clothing line held what will likely turn out to be its final fashion show. The shirt worn at the show by Ye, as the musician turned designer is know legally named, has become the centerpiece of a two-month-long onslaught of controversial behavior. The renowned rapper and producer has never been a stranger to controversy, often parlaying it to his benefit, but his recent actions have been in such poor taste as to be unacceptable. The problem that we now face as a pop-culture-consuming society is this: How do we reckon with Ye's legacy in the fashion world? His music career aside, Ye’s impact upon the fashion industry and the general style zeitgeist is monumental and cannot be simply written off. 

It's important to establish upfront that this is not a timeline of events. Enough metaphorical ink has already been spilled detailing Ye's rash and deplorable behavior over the past couple months. We'll touch on some of these events only to give context to his legacy in fashion. It's also important to acknowledge that Ye suffers from mental health issues. He has publicly acknowledged his bipolar disorder — even referencing it in an album title — as well as his unwillingness to cooperate with treatment. This by no means excuses his racist and antisemitic rhetoric, but it does provide a context for that and other irrational behavior.

This is what goes into making the perfect Timberland hiking boots
Lessons from a Hiking Boot Expert
Hiking boots standing on rocks

Getting out into the wide unknown is a pillar in our psyche. From the beginning of time, we looked out across the expanse of the wilderness with a wonder for adventure. We looked out among the trees of the forests, the peaks of the mountains, and the sands of the deserts for the first time and decided then and there that we would conquer those landscapes. Of course, we can't do it alone, and we need the right gear to reach the peaks or navigate the forests. That is where Alex Dardinski, Senior Director of Advanced Concepts and Energy for Timberland, comes in. His entire life is built around creating the perfect Timberland hiking boots to help you get out of the office, break away from the mundane life, and discover the world for yourself.

"I have always been very into the outdoors," Alex says. "And after an early career in Architecture and later Product Design, I purposefully sought out a job at a brand that enabled me to design products that matched my passion for being outside. With Timberland having such a rich outdoor lifestyle heritage, it was a natural fit."
