There is usually a trade-off when you decide you want to dress for the game. When you double down on your fandom, you typically sacrifice your style and definitely your individuality. Often, you are now just a number in a sea of whatever color your team boasts. However, the legend Todd Snyder is bringing style to fandom with the new Todd Snyder x NFL collection with Fanatics. Don’t sacrifice your style; support your team with one of the world’s most stylish designers.

“This collection is a natural extension of my love for blurring the lines between luxury and sport,” says Todd Snyder, Founder and President of his self-named brand. “We’ve taken classic fan gear and reinvented it with luxe materials and modern tailoring, from Italian cashmere rugby shirts to coaches’ jackets made in the USA by Golden Bear. It’s about celebrating team spirit with a sense of refinement.”

The other two entities are no strangers to fan-based merch, and even they know it is important to level up your fandom sometimes. Executives from both brands comment on the collaboration:

“Our ultimate goal is to create a world-class experience for our fans, full of options across many different categories, price points, and styles,” said Joe Monahan, President of Fanatics Brands. “This new luxury collection from Todd Snyder – one of the preeminent American menswear designers today – is the perfect addition to our assortment and showcases our commitment to bringing new, non-traditional designs into the fan apparel space.”

“Crafted with the fan in mind, this collection is a tribute to craftsmanship and functionality,” said Ryan Samuelson, Vice President of Consumer Products at the NFL. “By blending the timeless design of Todd Snyder with the league’s iconic brand, we elevated our fashion essentials for fans to showcase their fandom in a distinguished and stylish way for gameday and beyond.”

Alex Crane welcomes spring with new colors for the best-seller
Their best-selling bay sweater is now available in springtime colors

Building the right transition wardrobe is all about versatility. Finding ways to make lighter layers work for you by layering up. When you master layering, spring and fall will be more fun and more comfortable, and you can experiment with combining colors, textures, and fabrics. While layering up for the unpredictable rain, winds, and second winters that rudely horn in on the beginning of baseball season, a good sweater is vital for that goal. The Alex Crane Bay Sweater is one of their best sellers every year, and there is a handful of reasons why. The 100% organic cotton is light enough to serve as a layering piece and warm enough to keep you guarded against the unpredictable weather changes.
Understated elegance for spring style

Why use organic cotton? Because it is grown without fertilizers or pesticides and uses 70% less water than conventional cotton. Alex Crane grows their organic cotton in northern India, in the state of Punjab. Cotton is naturally soft, durable, and breathable. Only 1% of global cotton production is organic, so AC looks to help increase that percentage. These Bay Sweaters are made in Romania, in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains, meaning they can source the cotton straight from the sources all over Europe. Now that you have chosen the best cotton sweater for this season, you can style it with a henley or a button-down underneath or a great textured overshirt or jacket over the top of it. The bone, pine, and king colorways are the perfect way to stand out for the current season.

The Todd Snyder x UNIMATIC collaboration is the first of its kind
An unparalleled combination of style and functionality
Todd Snyder x Unimatic still

The Todd Snyder x UNIMATIC collaboration is the first of its kind. This is not because Todd Snyder has never made watches; of course, he has. But because this is the first time the legendary designer has worked with UNIMATIC, who has a design philosophy centered on functionality, updating traditional watch styles with a modern, minimalist approach to create distinctive, one-of-a-kind pieces. With the two of them coming together, this is bound to be a quick job selling out of this limited edition.

"I first discovered UNIMATIC a few years ago on Pinterest — I’m an obsessive Pinterest user. I was instantly drawn in and thought, ‘What is this? These are incredible.’” says Snyder, Founder and President of Todd Snyder. “I started incorporating UNIMATIC into my seasonal mood boards, always envisioning our guy, his life, and of course, the watch he’s wearing. When I finally met Giovanni and Simone from UNIMATIC, I knew — this was the watch.”

The Hudson is Bonobos’ big hit for the spring
Between the sweater polo and the cabana polo, spring belongs to Bonobos

One of my favorite times of the year is when I get to break out the polos for a new season. I am ecstatic to pack away my favorite coats and start utilizing my transition wardrobe as the springtime weather starts to roll in. However, spring isn't an exact science (one look at the weather report and you know what I am talking about). You know you can face those days when it is beautiful enough, like one moment for a polo, and then the wind picks up, and you need something a bit heavier. That is why one of my favorite pieces for the spring transition wardrobe is the sweater polo. The Bonobos Sweater Polo is one of the hits of this spring thanks to their two different versions, the polo and the cabana. The difference is simply the buttons, but they give completely different feels for different people, making them the perfect shirt for the spring.
More than just solids

When looking for a great polo, versatility and variety are the two things that typically get lost. Sure, you can go with the solid polo look, reminiscent of Daniel Craig's James Bond in Casino Royale. Or you can get a little more creative and put some personality behind it. That is one of the things that makes these two sweater knit short-sleeve options so attractive, you can do more than the solid look. You can go with a seventies look with the ribbed sweater polo or the resort look of The White Lotus with the floral cabana option. Either way, Bonobos is owning the spring shirt look with the Hudson.
