The Manual’s Top 5 Chambray Shirts for Fall

By

In terms of getting dressed, fall is a tricky season. The urge to wrap-up in a substantial knit is still a little premature yet; a t-shirt can leave you feeling a little too fresh. Which brings us to the chambray shirt – the ideal staple for those lukewarm fall days. Read on for a shortlist of our five current favorites.

20th century workwear brand Big yank have released a special archive collection of chambray shirts for fall, and the 1942 is awesome. Made from 100% indigo cotton, this classical piece is as sumptuous as it is stylish. We love the curved hem.

Crafted from Japanese selvedge chambray, this laidback shirt by new brand on the block, Freenote Cloth, is a great option for casual dressing. The beauty lies in the detail – custom pockets, 1/8” double needle detail, side and arm seams and custom-made horn buttons.

Stone Island, New Balance bring a vintage look to new sneakers
New Balance, Stone Island release new sneaker

Continuing their collaboration, Stone Island and New Balance again reclaim a classic silhouette. A modern reimagining of a traditional sneaker, the new collaborative sneaker includes all of the brand's performance details. Donning a vintage iteration, the new sneaker is about meshing the two brands' vision for innovation. Using Stone Island’s signature Raso Gommato fabric as inspiration, the design is a classic mix of two iconic brands. The Raso Gammato, inspired by military fabric, has been a part of the Italian brand’s heritage since the 80s. This iconic fabric returns to another classic staple, the New Balance 998. Although this long-term partnership has seen various designs, this release marks the first time the duo has created a Made in USA sneaker, making this an even more special drop.

Taking on the historic 998 model, New Balance and Stone Island have reimagined one of the athletic brand’s most recognizable silhouettes. First introduced in 1993, the New Balance 998 became the first sneaker to incorporate the brand’s ABZORB cushioning, a centerpiece to New Balance’s mission for comfort and performance. In this new sneaker, the duo uses Stone Island’s Raso Gommato, a polyurethane-coated canvas material, for the shoe’s upper. Nubuck overlays and reflective details add texture and dimension to the design’s body. Also included are the classic “N” logo, heel tab, and upper accents. The sneaker will come in a mauve, deep plum, and copper maroon colorway for the drop. To mark the special release, co-branding details can be found throughout the design with the words “new balance 998” and “stone island product research.” Although pricing has not yet been revealed, the sneaker is set to drop on March 27 via Stone Island’s website and select retailers. However, access is limited to those with a valid MyStoneIsland account.

Chronoswiss Pulse One: A modern take in two gorgeous colors
Chronoswiss dips its toes into the sports style
Chronoswiss Pulse One

Since its beginnings in the early 1980s, Chronoswiss has been known for its regulator display — and that holds true for its most recent release, the Chronoswiss Pulse One. Featuring a 41 mm titanium casing, the Pulse One is a full titanium regulator that was rolled out in two different colors—beige and blue. Both draw inspiration from different earth elements.

While watches from the previous generations had a strap, the new Chronoswiss timepieces are equipped with a titanium bracelet. But, the brand also preserved the signature design, so this new watch still retains the coin-like bezel.

Breitling, the well-known Swiss firm that makes timepieces, has announced that it bought Gallet, a watch company with a long-established history. The firm plans to relaunch Gallet at an important time, when Gallet has its 200th birthday in 2026.

This action by Breitling is the second purchase of a large firm after it bought Universal Genève in 2023. This helps to show how much impact Breitling now has in the luxury watch market. The statement attested that Gallet would be a brand that is under Breitling’s umbrella but not as costly as other luxury brands, allowing an entry-level point for customers.
