We love James Bond. It is no secret. And honestly, there aren’t very many people who love men’s style or as deep into the industry that will tell you differently. That is why he is often referenced in men’s style guides, and there are websites dedicated to studying the sartorial excellence of MI6’s most suave and debonair secret agent. Now, while James Bond’s style is the stuff of legend, he is only as good as the brands that outfitted him. And one of the most legendary brands to dress the spy is England’s iconic Turnbull & Asser. They are well known for Sir Winston Churchill’s overalls and for outfitting Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan, and Daniel Craig. Now, they have a way you too can dress like 007, with the Turnbull & Asser James Bond Collection.

Starting with Sean Connery, the collection has a pair of commemorative pocket silks. However, the main Connery piece replicates the light blue dress shirt with the unique cocktail cuff that is rarely seen today, which is notable for the turned-back look. It gives the French cuff appearance without the need for the cufflinks. Moving on to Pierce Brosnan, the most represented of the three. You have numerous shirts and ties from Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough, and Die Another Day. Looking at the collection, we didn’t realize how much Bond loved his geometric ties in that era. And finally, you can pick up the white shirt and black bowtie that took Daniel Craig’s Bond back to the basics in Casino Royale. If you want to dress like Bond, it’s best to do it by letting the people who actually dressed him do it for you.

We all want to shoot zombies. Or maybe that is just me. Zombie movies and zombie TV series have been all the rage for decades now. Resident Evil movies were a blockbuster sensation, and The Walking Dead completely captivated the world. Out of the zombie IPs out there, The Last of Us is one of the most popular, thanks to the two immensely popular video games and the recent TV adaptation starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey. A character-driven story that asks questions about morality and grief, along with pitting the protagonists against marauders, government oppression, and, of course, the undead, proved the perfect formula for success. While zombie content isn't usually the place we find style inspiration, the Wrangler x The Last of Us collaboration gives us the opportunity to look like stylish survivors and wear some of the best post-apocalyptic workwear you can find.

Get to know Line of Trade, Wren, and Fieldworth

Any brand worth its salt has (or at least considered) some sort of subscription service. Sure, there is a bit of an oversaturated market out there, so it may feel more like they should wait it out. But the old dogs that have been doing it for a while are still going strong. One of the first to offer a men's focused subscription service is Bespoke Post. Make one monthly payment, and you get a package with some of the coolest dude-centered gear you could ask for. I got a pretty sweet weekender bag modeled after an old-school tool bag my grandfather used to carry. There was an excellent knife in there somewhere. And the list of stellar gear for the exceptional man goes on. But now they have expanded and you may not know that they have three sensational lines of clothing that also come in the shipments. The Bespoke Post Spring and Summer collection is comprised of three brands you need to know about and some great picks within them.

Lee x Paul Smith Deneille Robert Percival and Emil Sands

Lee Jeans has been a staple in the denim industry for 50 years, with some of the best workwear on the market. Paul Smith has been a mainstay in England thanks to his dedication to creativity, positivity, and curiosity. The two came together in the 70s to launch Paul Smith's iconic Painters Jeans, distributed in the States by Lee. Five and a half decades later, the two are collaborating again to release a 14-piece limited edition collection that includes jeans, denim jackets, western-style shirts, and T-shirts. The Lee x Paul Smith collection takes the Lee 101 jeans and 101 Stormrider jacket, Lee chore jacket, western shirt, and carpenter pant to reimagine them in distinct Paul Smith patterns like his classic pinstripes and a playful washed jacquard.

“Paul Smith is renowned for its ‘classic with a twist’ aesthetic which fits authentically with Lee’s timeless style. Fans around the world have been waiting for this capsule since June’s initial announcement. At Lee, we can’t wait to see the momentum and excitement the launch generates for both brands.” - Jenni Broyles, Executive Vice-President & Global Brands President, Lee.
