Game of Thrones x John Varvatos Collection Drops Just in Time for Final Season Premiere

Rock and roll inspired designer John Varvatos and HBO are partnering on Game of Thrones x John Varvatos, an official, exclusive collaborative collection of menswear inspired by the popular series. Whether or not you’ve powered through and caught up with each episode of the acclaimed series, this collection is worth a look. And there no spoilers, we promise.

With 11 different pieces to satisfy your appetite for killer style, from the seriously expensive Winterfell Leather Jacket (pricing in at more than $2,600) to the more affordably priced Heritage Henley, the Game of Thrones x John Varvatos is the menswear-TV mashup you didn’t know you needed in your life, and it couldn’t come at a better time.

The real kicker here is that Varvatos has turned the visually striking world of Westeros into a menswear collection that captures the texture of the show — from the linen-cotton Kingsroad Pants, featuring a tapered fit and a distressed finish, to the heavy-washed linen construction of the Heritage Henley (pair up both with a denim jacket or perhaps one of the leather jackets from the collaboration itself).

For the guy who prefers his everyday carry essentials to have a bit of flair, there’s also the Traveler Bag, which doesn’t look too far off from something you’d see slung across the back of a horse-mounted rider on the show. There’s also a run of graphic T-shirts, including one with that famed phrase, “Winter Is Coming” (hey, you had to know that was being made, right?).

But the real king of this collection is the aforementioned Winterfell Leather Jacket, with all the edgy appeal you’d expect from a John Varvatos leather jacket (and a price tag to match).

Are you really a fan of Game of Thrones if you don’t pick up a piece from this collection? We’ll leave that for you to decide. Pledge your allegiance wisely, Westerosians!

Sad you don’t see any footwear included in the above collection? Look instead to Adidas that has a whole slew of shoes to help you rep your House pride.

The bright lights of Hollywood radiate the kind of heat that draws people from all over the world. When the sun is shining high in the sky, there is a summer beach vibe that attracts virtually everyone at some point in their lives. People flock to the left coast, hoping to explore the beaches and sunny weather. That doesn't mean it is always surf weather in California; they also have some winter weather that, while not as cold and snowy as the rest of the country, can be a bit nippy and windy. From the deserts to the ocean, a good coat and layering is needed. That is where Buck Mason comes in. The Buck Mason Winter in Hollywood Collection puts together everything you need to survive the unexpected cold in the City of Angels and the desert.
Coats for the stars

When choosing the right outerwear for California winter, where you are in the Southern California region is the deciding factor. If you are out in the Inland Empire, the classic UN Deck Jacket with the shearling collar is the perfect protection from the cold desert winds. If you are killing it in the Orange County area, they find the ideal balance of warmth and layering with the Felted Chore Coat. When the bright lights of Hollywood are begging for something a little more elevated, Buck Mason offers the Donegal Tweed Balmacaan. Buck Mason has the outerwear for your season no matter what you have going on in the slightly warmer winter weather.

Whatever the reason, we are seeing Western-style infiltrate every corner of men's style, and Taylor Stitch is doing its part. Whether you go for workwear or outerwear, there is always something for you to use functionally, along with the fashion. One of our favorite shirts is the western shirt, and there is a new one landing this season that will make Rip Wheeler envious while driving cattle. The Taylor Stitch Western Shirt Jacket is the perfect mix between function and fashion and makes you feel right at home in the bunkhouse or on the trail.
Fan favorite takes you to the Dutton Ranch

The western shirt is a fan favorite look that seems to pop up every year. But this year's iteration just seems to have a bit more of a punch to it. Maybe it is because of the Duttons, maybe not. But this year, Taylor Stitch brings out a version that looks perfect for the ranch, and is equally stylish enough for the bar and tough enough for the ropin pen. Let's just hope it never has to visit the train station.
