Inspiration can come from anywhere. A book, a movie, a song, all things that can spark our creative engines and get us to turn out the best we have inside us. Designers have to find ways to escape the noise of the industry to find inspiration in everything around them. For Wax London, that was what they did. On a trip to Scotland, they found themselves surrounded by the serene beauty of the country and developed their autumn and winter collection for 2024, titled appropriately enough, “Escape the Noise.” Of course, any collection that Wax London does now has to include an evolution of the new icon for the brand, the Whiting overshirt. And this season has already gotten a boost thanks to Bradley Cooper, who wore it for an outing in NYC. But that isn’t all this new collection has going for it.

Fit for an autumn in the Scottish Highlands

The new Wax London collection features a bevy of specialty overshirts, including the classic windowpane check and the latest season stepney all in a darker nighttime color palette of blacks, navy, and whites. They also add to their repertoire with the Otto, similar to the Whiting, only with side entry pockets. One of the collection’s standouts this season is the use of corduroy. Not only do they offer it in blazers and trousers, the perfect fall fabric for exploring Scotland’s most beautiful countryside, but they also feature embroidered shirts in a stunning pin-cord texture.

Subdued colors and luxurious fabrics define Buck Mason FW2024

Fall blues, browns, and grays dominate the collection

The fall season is when the colors of the world begin to show off. The brilliant oranges, reds, yellows, and greens shine through the summer's looks of vegetation to remind you that, while the season is the sign that change is coming, they are still alive and well for the time being. For the man's wardrobe, that tends to be the opposite direction. While the world is showing off its majestic hues, we men tend to subdue our colors and go in for the deeper colors that don't shine as brightly. Burgundy, forest green, brown, gray, and blue seem to reign during these months. Maybe we don't want to steal the Earth's thunder. In any case, Buck Mason leaned heavily into the idea with their new fall lineup. The Buck Mason fall collection lands with a healthy grouping of cashmere, flannel, and some very select colors perfect for the autumn.
A collection of blues, grays, and browns

When you look at the new collection from one of our favorite brands, the first thing that will stand out is the commitment to the subdued hues of the fall tradition. The browns of the tweed overcoat and the rugby polo will work perfectly as you walk through the park in the changing foliage. The blues of the sport coat, suit, and denim will keep you stylishly casual in the office, and the gray scale from black to white will bring it all together in a sensationally timeless capsule that speaks volumes for the season.

Dress like Rip Wheeler on the Yellowstone Ranch with Paramount shop

Paramount shop makes it easy to show your Yellowstone love

Some series hit the screens and spread globally like a virus. Cultural phenomena like Game of Thrones, Stranger Things, and Friends changed the cultural landscape and are spoken about at water coolers all across the 9-5s. Debates and fan theories run rampant even after they go off the air. Yellowstone is the newest member of this club, as the battle for the Dutton Ranch is the talk of the breakroom once again. With the return of Rip (Cole Hauser), Beth (Kelly Reilly), Jamie (Wes Bentley), and Kayce (Luke Grimes), you may be feeling the itch to discuss the show and show your love. The Paramount x Yellowstone collection allows you to dress like your favorite character on and off the ranch.
Little nods to loud statements

Let's be real here: one of the reasons Yellowstone made such a splash was because Cole Hauser is unapologetically rugged and manly as Rip Wheeler. His ability to be charming and at the same time usher problems to the train station caused men and women everywhere to swoon for five seasons. With the Paramount x Yellowstone collection, you can invest in the suitable garments and accessories to channel your inner Rip. From his black denim Yellowstone jacket to his aviators, just pop a toothpick in your mouth, and you will have people doing what you say when you say it in fear of a trip to the train station. Of course, you could also simply get some stickers or something to show your love for the series. The choice is yours.

SODO Athletic Lab finds the “trifecta” of athletic wear with relaunch

Finding comfort, performance, and presentation in athleticwear

Getting to the gym and working hard is the majority of staying fit (not including the vital nutritional aspect of the journey). Having the right clothing that works hard with you is another critical aspect. Founded in 2013, SODO Athletic Lab reinvented themselves and has a new look and a new feel. The SODO Athletic Lab relaunch features a new line that captures the trifecta of athletic wear.

“Men’s activewear is dominated by brands whose focus lies somewhere else — in shoes or women's wear, for example —and who largely produce low quality, seasonal items on a fast production schedule,” said MatthewStuart, Co-founder of Sodo Athletic Lab. “When we took over the reins at Sodo, we asked a simple question — what’s missing in the market and what is worth making For us, the answer is this collection: carefully considered activewear that delivers robust functionality with subtle sophistication and quiet confidence."
