Now that we are steamrolling into the spring, it is nearly time for us to bring our best boat shoes back out of the closet, pair them with shorts, and hop on a boat. Of course, if you have a favorite boat shoe, there is a good chance that they are from Sperry. After nearly a century of excellence, the Sperry x BEAMS PLUS collaboration brings us the pinnacle of Americana and prep.

“This collaboration with Sperry is a tribute to our long-standing partnership and a celebration of their 90th Anniversary! Sperry has been a cornerstone of Ivy Style, Prep Style, and BEAMS PLUS, and we’re incredibly grateful for their support and dedicated fanbase,” says Hideki Mizobata, Director of BEAMS PLUS. “To commemorate this milestone, we’ve expanded the collection with apparel under the theme ‘Head to Shoes.’ We’ve put so much heart into the specially designed original fabrics and styles for this collaboration. We hope this collection resonates with Sperry enthusiasts and all those who appreciate Ivy and Prep fashion.”

While there are some great apparel pieces, the centerpoint of the collection is the CVO, which pays homage to Sperry’s iconic Circular Vamp Oxford.

“Standing on 90 years of history, the CVO is a timeless icon of American style,” says Jonathan Frankel, President of Sperry. “The Sperry x BEAMS PLUS Nylon CVO celebrates the rich heritage of the Paul Sperry original and offers a piece of fashion history reimagined with a modern aesthetic by the Americana experts at BEAMS PLUS.”

Bonobos offers three new options for springtime office style

Bonobos Linen Suit

As the weather starts to warm up in the spring, your wardrobe needs a bit of a refresh so that you can navigate the office and nightcap get-togethers without dying of heatstroke. Updating your wardrobe for the spring and summer months is as simple as focusing on light and breathable fabrics and brighter colors. Of course, as easy as that sounds, it can get overwhelming with all of the options you have on the market. Natural fibers, like linen and cotton, narrow the search field, and colors like white, beige, and pastels narrow it even further. However, the easiest way is to find a brand that puts it all together for you. Bonobos Springtime office wear gives you three different looks and two different fabrics to update your wardrobe for spring and summer 2025.

From the rebellious look of 1950s greasers to the dressed-up versions of the 1970s and the entire spectrum that has evolved since, the leather jacket is a man's best friend. Schott NYC is a company you can thank for that best friend, as they provided the first motorcycle jacket and outfitted the military in WWII. Now, they have teamed up with iconic outdoors and sporting brand Ball and Buck for a once-in-a-lifetime, limited-edition jacket.
