Joey Pants lives up to his name with &SONS

The hardest working man in Hollywood needs a great work pant

&SONS Joey's Crew Pant Patch — &SONS

Joe Pantoliano is one of the hardest-working men in Hollywood. His upcoming appearance in the Dexter prequel, Dexter: Original Sin, gives him 169 credits to his name. But it isn’t just the number of credits he has on his resume; it is also the kinds of roles he plays. He carried the first Matrix movie in an utterly underrated role as the mole on the ship. He was the only person in all of Miami who could keep Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) in line in the Bad Boys franchise, and let’s not forget that he was the most charming member of Deputy Sam Girard’s (Tommy Lee Jones) warrant squad in The Fugitive (both movies). A man that works this hard needs a good work pant, and that is where classic Americana master &SONS came to the rescue.

The perfect product for a Hollywood icon

&SONS

Joe Pantoliano has a very Italian name, and the heritage of such a name likely helped him land the role of Ralph on The Sopranos. However, the difficult time some people have in pronouncing that name led him to earn the nickname Joey Pants. That is the perfect nickname for a man who is a fan of the leader in stylish old-world workwear. When he asked &SONS to deliver their work pant in a new color, they delivered the Churchill blue. But they didn’t stop there, they honored their famous fan with a patch with his face on it and called this pant, “Joey’s Crew.” The perfect work pants for the hardest worker in Hollywood. Now, he is going to do it in an even more stylish way.

MUNICIPAL is ready for Easter with lilac drop

MUNICIPAL is one of the first brands to get a jump on Easter

MUNICIPAL Lilac couple

Every year, around the middle of spring, a color phenomenon hits the fashion industry. While we all tend to go for the perfect fabrics for warmer weather like linen, cotton, and other breathable and natural fabrics, colors are also front and center of our shopping goals. The colors we used to dye our eggs as kids have now been firmly planted into our psyche and reappear every season for Easter. Pastels are the colors of the holidays: baby pink, lavender, mint green, peach, periwinkle, lilac, baby blue, light lemon, and turquoise begin to pop up everywhere during Easter. The MUNICIPAL Origin 300 Hoodie is the first garment to adopt the Easter colors with a new lilac option.

The MUNICIPAL Origin 300 Hoodie is one of the company's best-selling products and one of the original pieces when the Mark Wahlberg-driven fitness brand launched. As the years have gone on, it expanded to over a dozen different colors. The lilac drop is the seventeenth color to hit the shelves, and it is doing so with the perfect Easter timing. If you go to pick one up, throw this on with your light wash denim and your clean white sneakers and you will have the perfect Easter Sunday look when you watch the younger people at the party search for eggs that match the hoodie.

Inside Bugatchi’s FW25 collection: Where elegance meets introspection

Anthony Keegan tells us where the FW25 collection came from

BUGATCHI showroom

When perusing the brands and the shows of New York Fashion Week, I got the distinct pleasure of stepping into Bugatchi's showroom on 57th Street to get a look at their new collection. And while the Bugatchi Fall and Winter 25 was a thing to behold, with stellar blazers, beautiful outerwear, and, of course, the best shirts on the market. However, there is more to a collection than just the aesthetic beauty. Lucky for me, I was able to get some understanding of the deeper meanings driving FW25 by sitting down with Creative Director Anthony Keegan.
The complexities of the modern man

Being a man is simplistic on the surface. There is a stoic straightforwardness presented to the world with a deep and profound identity underneath, meant to drive us. While much of the outside world wants us to keep that buried, Bugatchi's new collection urges us to release it from its inner depths with style.
