The new trend for 2024 and 2025 is a collection of old trends from the ’80s, the ’90s, and the ’00s. Of course, that means all of our favorite brands from those times are surging back to the forefront. Two of those brands, American Eagle and Timberland, are teaming up to bring a collaboration steeped in ’90s inspiration and a true feel for the decade. But they aren’t alone; singer-songwriter Role Model, AKA Tucker Pillsbury, is jumping on board as an ambassador.

Timberland brings an outdoor feel to the classic Americana of American Eagle, creating a line that captures the best parts of America. Role Model brings his roots from Central Maine to add to the heritage of line and make it one you may need to check out if you are feeling nostalgic for the old days.

rag & bone wants to take you back with Harvey Collection
Dress like the days of Kennedy with knitted polos

There was a time in our nation's history that felt like we saw something new and unprecedented every day, every week, every month. You had the hope and inspiration of the Space Race contradicting the fear and turmoil of the Vietnam War. Giant strides were made in the Civil Rights Movement, bringing pride and freedom to marginalized communities. And devastating setbacks were seen in the assassinations of two Kennedys and a King. It was an amazing and trying time, and the evolution of men's style went along for the ride. One of the fashion trends of the day was the knitted and crocheted polos that men wore to protests, marches, and celebrations. The style gave them a trendy casual look that built on the rebellious casualization of men in the 1950s and carried it into the subsequent decades. rag & bone reaches back to those memorable years of the mid-late century to bring us the Harvey Collection.
Capturing deep vintage 60s-70s

The first thing to take notice of in this collection is the reinvention of the fabrics with cotton blends that include cashmere. This gives an elevated feel to the casual look and, regardless of your rebellion, allows you to feel luxurious. The next thing to make these polos perfect for today is the updated color pallet. While the 60s and 70s were known for their browns and avocado greens, the reds, blues, blacks, and whites bring these into the now. And finally, an updated silhouette modernizes these looks, keeping the vintage feel without the outdated wide collars and flared hems.

Military, work, and mid-century inspired style
Olderbest Fair Isle Sweater

This season is all about raiding your grandfather's closet for the best items from yesterday. Call it vintage chic, call it old-is-new, or call it whatever you want. We prefer Grandpa-Core. Vintage styles made popular, from loose-fitting pleated Donegal pants made popular in the early 1900s to the baggy styles of the Y2K era, are popping up all over the industry and giving all of us a fit of nostalgia. Of course, finding quality goods that fit this criteria without raiding your ancestor's closets or spending an arm and a leg is a tricky proposition. Luckily for all of us, brands are emerging into popularity that fill the void and give all of us the garments that keep us in nostalgic heaven. Olderbest is a third-party retailer that excels in bringing these brands together.
Vintage-inspired clothing with modern quality

There are three main avenues of the old-school looks that most of us like to emulate. The military styles of the past, which include garments like a Vietnam utility shirt, a WWII flight jacket, or a peacoat from Navy origins. The workwear looks feature old railway-striped jackets and selvage denim, and you could never go wrong with a good pair of coveralls. And finally, you have the vintage looks of suspenders, flat caps, cardigans, and loose-fitting pleated trousers. Olderbest brings together a collection of brands, including Bronson MFG. CO., Remains Clothing, and Time Catcher Clothing. While other people are scrounging thrift stores, second-hand shops, and smuggling old favorites from their grandpa's house, you can find your own right here.
