Trying on Peter Manning’s new Tribeca Field Jacket

Peter Manning founded his company — Peter Manning/Five Eight New York — on the idea men 5’8″ and shorter have the same opportunity to find comfortably fitting clothes as anyone else. Not only does his company operate on this premise, Peter knows first hand how rare it is to find perfect fitting clothing right off the rack. Because of this, Peter launched his clothing venture in mid-2012 and works to “bring you the best fitting, best made clothes you have ever worn.” Since its launch, he’s helped thousands of customers who experience similar dilemmas while shopping for clothes. So whether it’s your next favorite pair of pants, or an ideal-fitting button down Oxford, Peter Manning/Five Eight New York takes the guess work out of finding the perfect fit for men 5’8″ and under.

Peter’s promise of providing comfortable fitting clothing goes even further with the recent release of his Tribeca Field Jacket; the first outerwear piece produced by the clothing line. Aiming to bring the popular field jacket design to a wider range of men, Peter and company perfectly rethought and rescaled the coat during its production. Touting a shorter length and shorter sleeves, the Tribeca Field Jacket also allows wearers to adjust the wrist and waist sizes for a fully customizable fit. Its cotton flannel plaid lining perfectly accents the jacket’s two available colors — tan or olive — and features a scaled down, corduroy detailed collar. Peter rethought the placement of each of the jacket’s properly proportioned pockets to make them both functional and convenient for the wearer. Streamlined and void of unnecessary detail, the Tribeca Field Jacket showcases everything Peter Manning built his “life long dream” of a company on.

Nomos adds color to Metro line for Ace Jewelers’ 50th
Two new Nomos watches with striking dial colors
Ace x Nomos Glashuette

Dating back to the early ‘90s, German watch brand Nomos Glashutte has dominated the industry with stylish timepieces. It is now collaborating with Ace Jewelers to mark a special milestone in the boutique's journey—its 50th anniversary. The latest additions, the Metro Neomatik and Metro Neomatik 39, are based on the Metro line and are cleverly designed to breathe some life into the collection. Think of it as a splash of color that makes everything look more interesting.

To make the collection more lively, the brand opted for contemporary color shades—orange and yellow. Each model features a subdial above 6 o’clock that’s highlighted by a different shade, which complements the dial. While the orange version has a yellow subdial, the yellow variant comes with an orange sundial, two warm colors that blend perfectly. The Metro line consists of three watch models with white and blue dials—the new orange dials add a touch of spice to the collection.

Sergio Tacchini taps into its tennis roots for SS25
Channeling the tennis beginnings and the polo origin
Sergio Tacchini Tennis

Athletes who make a mark on their sport almost always go on to create something off the court as well. After they leave a lasting legacy within their respective athletic venture, they look to have the same effect on culture. The most popular example is Michael Jordan and his Air Jordan shoe line. While he is the greatest basketball player of all time (no disrespect to Kobe or LeBron), his shoes have changed the world in so many ways that it's hard to quantify. But before MJ, you had Sergio Tacchini. While he was a legendary tennis star, he made a lasting impact on culture when he launched his self-titled brand. It started on the court and was worn by dozens of tennis legends from the 1970s to the 1990s, but it was also adopted by the British subculture "The Casuals" and hip-hop artists like LL Cool J and Nas. Since then, it went through some hard times before being acquired in 2019 and relaunched. The Sergio Tacchini SS25 drop heads back to its tennis roots, reminding everyone where it came from.
