The gold standard of the sweater wardrobe has been the cashmere sweater for years. It is soft, warm, attractive, and as luxurious as anything you could ever want. Cashmere is by far the king of any fabrics in the industry, and while you will see it in everything from sport coats to overcoats, the sweater is where it belongs. Vince. is a brand that lives in luxury, taking its California vibes and providing understated luxurious garments for men and women that embody the allure of the West Coast, most specifically Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and Orange County. This season, in the heyday of the old-school vintage looks, Vince. is reaching back into the past to push the cashmere sweater forward with one classically cool feature.

Adding the Johnny Collar

Johnny Mathis is one of the most legendary musical icons the industry has ever seen. Along with Bob Dylan, Barbra Streisand, Tony Bennett, Billy Joel, and Bruce Springsteen, he carries the distinction of being among the longest-tenured musicians under the Columbia Records banner. He also is one of only four artists (Frank Sinatra, Barry Manilow, and Prince) to have five albums on the Billboard Charts at the same time. However, in the fashion world, he is known primarily for the Johnny Collar, a buttonless open collar similar to a polo. Vince. reaches back to the rise of this collar in the 50s and 60s and brings it to today so you can update your cashmere sweater in the most stylish way this season.

Style, shirt

FIFA 2026 provides a global amphitheater for sport, people, and culture to converge. Not only do the world’s best football players compete for the crown, but devoted fans have opportunities for travel and spectacle, visiting new places while cheering on their national team. It’s a true celebration.

And when participating in a once-in-a-lifetime event, it makes sense to dress your best, not only to look good, but to express yourself and support your team. With that in mind, I put together my favorites for each step of the World Cup journey — travel day, match day, and nights on the town.

Christopher Nolan and Hamilton made a bronze watch fit for The Odyssey
Hamilton and Christopher Nolan team up again, with a bronze field watch for timed for the debut of The Odyssey.
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Here's a first for a company that's spent decades sticking its watches into movies: this one was built for a film it can never actually appear in. That's the twist on the Khaki Field Auto The Odyssey Limited Edition, Hamilton's latest team-up with Christopher Nolan tied to his upcoming epic The Odyssey (in theaters July 17).

Since the film is set in the Bronze Age, it's pretty unlikely that anybody was wearing a wristwatch. For us in the modern age, though, the new watch's 42mm case is bronze (it'll develop its own patina over time). The black dial looks like Odysseus's helmet; there are a pair of sword-shaped hands in bronze, and the 12 o'clock index is modeled on a rivet from the scabbard. You get the idea. Meanwhile, the titanium case back is engraved with the helmet and Nolan's signature.

VERO Watches drops a watch reminding you forest fire prevention is all you
VERO Smokey Bear Blue Skies sends 10% of proceeds to prevent forest fires
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

VERO Watches is built to find the man who embraces his lineage. I am not talking about his nationality. I am not talking about his race or his heritage. I am talking about the lineage that brought us from the caves and the frontier to the more civilized and modernized world we recognize today. These are watches for explorers. These are watches for the man who ditches the cubicle and the office. The boardroom is a prison for our adventurous spirit, and VERO figured that out and is creating watches to help the man disappear from that existence to reclaim his place in the wilderness. Now that the dramatic part is over, I can tell you about the new drop featuring one of our favorite characters from our childhood, Smokey the Bear. The new VERO Smokey Bear Blue Skies is set up to remind all of us of one single truth.

Preventing forest fires is your responsibility
