Mott & Bow’s New Cashmere Sweaters Are Awesomely Affordable

Mott & Bow, the makers of some of the best jeans on the market, are now entering an entirely new category: cashmere sweaters

It starts with the super high-quality pill-resistant, Mongolian cashmere and it ends — well, not entirely — with a stellar price of just $149. In short, these cashmere sweaters are exceptional, nearly unprecedented, and here just in time for fall layering.

We’re a brand known for our premium quality basics – starting with denim, then shirts and tees. Cashmere was the natural next step for us as it really defines our passion to offer everyday luxury in clothing, but for a fair price,” said the brand’s founder, Alejandro Chanin.

The great thing about a minimal, cleanly designed cashmere sweater  (especially this one from Mott & Bow) starts with the styling potential. The right type of cashmere sweater is able to be worn as a substitute in place of a dress shirt under your best fall flannel suit, or as a stand-in for, well, a less high-quality sweater.

And Mott & Bow’s cashmere sweaters also act as an easy-to-wear piece alongside the brand’s well-tailored, well-made jeans. Could there be a more perfect pairing? We love the full range of easy-to-style colors for these sweaters, too, from a crisp navy to a classic grey. This is understated, premium quality that’s not too ostentatious. It’s similar to the brand’s array of denim styles in that way.

And in a street style world where anything goes, that’s certainly something we can appreciate. We think you’ll feel the same way, and if you’ve tried the brand’s easy-to-layer T-shirts launched earlier this summer, then you know that the brand’s ongoing product evolution is a welcome way to disrupt the apparel industry.

We were thrilled that we were able to achieve this fair price, like our denim, while maintaining top quality and great design,” Chanin said.

So, the wait is over when it comes to tracking down your new favorite fall sweater, and the even better news is you’re getting (at least) one that’s made with affordable pricing, quality materials and standout style in mind.

Why these 7 watches are smart style statements

Owning a luxury watch is an investment often stemming from a passion for horology and a smart financial move. The right watch can significantly appreciate over time to become a wearable asset and ultimately a family heirloom. Despite these grand prospects, not every watch has this benefit, as some depreciate rapidly or lack demand from avid collectors.

According to the CEO and co-founder of Bezel, Quaid Walker, "Watches are made to be worn, so always choose a watch that you love, versus selecting a watch purely as a speculative investment. The market tends to favor the iconic brands due to high demand, limited supply, and brand prestige, but none of that matters if you don’t enjoy wearing it."

The Glashuette Original 70s chronograph

Glashütte is going back to one of the most iconic eras in fashion with the release of its Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date, a timepiece that combines the singularly 1970s-inspired design with contemporary technical brilliance. Housed in a sleek 40mm x 40mm stainless steel case and showcasing a distinctive tonneau shape, this model is the epitome of understated sophistication, its satin-brushed and polished surfaces catching the light with refined precision. The gradient blue dial will remind of twilight skies, featuring a sunray finish that shifts in color depending on the angle, while the applied indices and faceted hands ensure excellent legibility. The in-house Calibre 37-02 automatic movement can be viewed through the sapphire caseback and showcases Glashütte Original’s signature three-quarter plate, blued screws, and hand-engraved balance cock – a testament to Saxon watchmaking at the highest level.
