GAP changed the game with sweats by making them incognito

Go where you want in sweatpants and never get a bad look

There are specific dress codes men follow. Things you wear to work can be classified as business professional, wearing a suit and tie daily. Or maybe you work in a place that is a little more laid back, and you wear business casual. Either way, an elevated version of your wardrobe is reserved for the office. On the casual side, you have streetwear and athleisure, which you wear outside the house. Jeans span these looks and seem to fit everywhere because they are a classic staple. Sweatpants, however, are somewhere between gym wear and loungewear. Despite their comfort and our love of being as relaxed as possible, they aren’t exactly appropriate to be worn out of the house while you run errands or get social. That is where the Gap Sweatpant Jeans are attempting to make a change.

Jeans that really aren’t

We all love a good pair of jeans; some are made for comfort. But a pair of sweatpants, especially Gap’s heavyweight and ultra cozy sweatpants, made to resemble a pair of jeans, changes that game. You can go out on the town looking elevated while incognito comfortable. What’s better? They added a denim jacket to the look so you can have an entire sweatsuit look while looking like you put more effort into the ensemble. We wouldn’t suggest this as a date look, but hitting the grocery store, the park, or even a movie is now the comfiest thing you can do with your weekend.

Lucky Brand is feeling imaginative with the House of Mouse
A collection that blends the style of Lucky with the happiness of Disney
Lucky Brand x Disney jacket

Disney is considered one of the happiest places on Earth thanks to our childhood nostalgia and the desire to meet our heroes like Aladdin and Flynn Rider and introduce our children to princesses like Snow White and Aurora. Not to mention the chance to get lost in a magical world where everything always works out and good never falls to evil. Although we can't disappear into the Magical Kingdom 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, we can find other ways to take small trips into Neverland or escape to Agrabah for a reset. Lucky for us, the Lucky Brand x Disney collaboration allows us to take the Magical Kingdom with us with stylish pieces perfect for expressing ourselves.
Style mixes with nostalgic imagination

There is a fine line between sporting some Disney swag and being a full-fledged Disney adult. One of them gives you the ability to be the envy of everyone around you while you wear one or two stylish graphics, and the other looks overdone and makes it difficult for others to take you seriously. Lucky Brand's line is perfect for the former. You can go all out with a Disney-inspired letter jacket or a subtle Disney tracksuit, or you can keep it simpler with a Lucky tee featuring Mickey Mouse or a mouse-earred hat. Either way you go, there is something in this collection for any brand of Disney adult, and you should absolutely let your Mickey flag fly. Oh, and don't forget to wear it when you meet Flynn or Aladdin.

Bringing elevated style to streetwear in 2025
H&M Atelier Collection 2

Streetwear and urban looks are two of the more popular arenas of the casual lifestyle. Whether you are looking at loose-fitting hoodies and baggy jeans with a clean pair of kicks or elevating your chinos and tees with a good pair of Chelsea boots, your day-to-day looks on the street are a part of your stylistic expression. One of the better brands on the market that encapsulates the casual wardrobe and the streetwear vibes is H&M. While it is more accessible than many other prominent fashion houses, it allows you to experiment with looks you are unsure of without full commitment to a few overpriced pieces. The H&M Atelier SS25 collection is their new dive into the season, with heritage shapes and workwear fabrics reimagined through a contemporary lens.
Classic silhouettes and workwear aesthetics

Relaxed tailoring takes center stage with their single-breasted topcoats and a cotton gabardine belted raincoat. Light Italian wool suits with sharp tailored shoulders and contrast lining are also featured for the guy looking for an elevated city look. A cropped leather moto jacket has the originality of a vintage piece with a washed and worn-in, timeless feel. The five-pocket trousers are the perfect companion to workwear-inspired jackets. Simple touches are the name of the game with this collection.
