Sebastian Stan is one of the most well-known and most recognizable faces in Hollywood thanks to his run in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Bucky Barnes, AKA The Winter Soldier. For years we watched him first fight the Nazis in WWII with Captain America, then fight his best friend in a Manchurian Candidate kind of way, only to snap out of it and take his rightful place by Cap’s side as an Avenger. Since then, he has found success as real people by playing Tommy Lee and President Donald Trump. Recently, he stepped out at the BAFTAs when he was nominated for his role in The Apprentice in a compelling performance as our current Commander and Chief. Of course, we couldn’t see Sebastian Stan at the BAFTAs without taking notice of his attire, and we keyed in one item we recognized – the classic ETON tuxedo shirt.

Bringing back classic masculinity on the red carpet

Men’s fashion is an ever-moving target,, and if you don’t keep up, you can often find yourself lost. One of the best ways to ensure that you are never out of style is to stay with the classics. Since the beginning of Hollywood and in the history of awards season, you can always find the men of Tinsletown donning black tuxes, white shirts, and black ties. From Jimmy Stweart to George Clooney, it is a timeless look that embodies Hollywood masculinity. Stan elected to go with one of the best shirtmakers in the world to accomplish the look, and the result is one of the best looks on the carpet this year.

A style expert shows men how to wear a seersucker suit this summer

Stay cool and stylish in seersucker for 2025

When you start a suit collection, there are different colors, patterns, and styles to keep in mind. However, if you have to wear a suit every day, you will want to consider the fabrics as well. Wool is a great fabric and can look fantastic all year round, but there are some basics to add to your collection for both cold weather (like flannel, tweed, and cashmere) and warm weather (like linen and cotton). One of the classics to add to your summer wardrobe is a good seersucker suit. It is perfect for Memorial Day to Labor Day and is great for any occasion. But you know me, I won't just tell you to go shopping without doing the research for you and getting some information for you to look great after picking it up. I reached out to Michelle Kohanzo, President of The Tie Bar (who helped us put together a look for the Kentucky Derby), to get a little guidance on how to wear a seersucker suit, and she never disappoints.

The seersucker suit is designed to be dressed up or down, so you can style it for brunch just as easily as you can for an event. - Michelle Kohanzo, President of The Tie Bar

I tested the Arc’teryx Vertex Speed in the mountains — here’s what stood out

Arc'teryx Vertex Speed

Virginia’s Shenandoah National Park is a playground of rocks, roots, boulders, and dirt. There, a trail run can involve hiking, striding, and scrambling over tens of miles and thousands of vertical feet. Bear and snake sightings keep things interesting. It’s truly a place for mountain running.

With these attributes, the park was the perfect place to test Arc’teryx’s latest mountain running shoe, the Vertex Speed. It’s a shoe that blurs the lines between running and climbing, with features catering to each activity. But does the formula work? Here’s my take.
