Wax London reminds us that knits are the perfect spring hack

The perfect transition shirt for spring is the knit

Wax London Knits Campaign polo

Knitted sweaters are your best friend all through the fall and winter. They are warm, stylish, comfortable, and versatile. That makes them easy to style from September to February. However, when March arrives, there is a tendency to remove the knits from your wardrobe and move on to your linen and cotton garments, which breathe better in the warmer weather. There is a problem with this approach, though. March, April, and May can be very unpredictable with their weather. It can be cool in the mornings, hot in the afternoon, and cool again in the evening. That’s why a good transitional wardrobe is essential. And Wax London knits are front and center in a campaign to remind us that knits shouldn’t get put away too soon. They still have a use in the spring.

Using knit polos to build your spring transition

Knitted polos are the perfect spring shirt for a transitional wardrobe for multiple reasons. First, they are endlessly stylish and look great on everyone. They offer a vintage look, which is all the rage nowadays, and pay homage to the polos of the 1960s and 1970s. Second, they are a good weight to help keep you from freezing during the cool mornings and evenings, but not so heavy that you’re stifling in the afternoon heat. Third, they are a great layering piece. Throw them on and leave them open over a short-sleeved henley. Layer them underneath a good overshirt. While you are making your way through the spring months, a knit polo from Wax London is a great way to navigate the weather.

This under-the-radar German brand just dropped a slick new dive watch
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Hanhart doesn’t get talked about nearly enough, so here’s a quick backstory: they’re a German brand out of Gütenbach in the Black Forest, they put the first single-button chronograph into series production back in 1938, and a year later they built pilot’s chronographs for the German Air Force. That red pusher button is still on their watches today.

That’s a real, foundational place in watchmaking history; it’s the kind of lore that other brands build entire marketing campaigns around. Somehow, Hanhart still flies under most people’s radar, but their new Aquasphere Matte Black is an argument that folks should be paying attention.

Union Glashütte’s new chronograph looks like a vintage race car dashboard
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Union Glashütte has released a new limited-edition chronograph tied to the Sachsen Classic, a historic car rally the brand has sponsored for years.

The name of the Glashütte-based watchmaker’s new piece is a mouthful: the Averin Chronograph Limited Edition Sachsen Classic 2026. It might be so long because it marks a bit of a switch-up — past Sachsen Classic editions have all been built on Union Glashütte’s Noramis Chronograph, a round watch. This year the brand switched to the Averin, which is very clearly not round.

For the love of Italy: Hockerty releases 14 looks with inspiration from 14 Italian locations
Blazer, Clothing, Coat

I am a traveler at heart. Every day, I wake up and have coffee, and stare out the window at a world still full of wonders and mysteries I have yet to uncover. Since the day I joined the Army, my heart has always been on the road, in the sky, or aboard a ship. The idea that there is a part of the world I have yet to see is both exhilarating and frustrating. Chasing those undiscovered corners of the world started as a passion and an experiment and became a way of life and an addiction. I say all that to say, I find inspiration on the road. I see the world around me as a canvas for my imagination.

I am also a menswear fanatic. From selling suits to writing about them, a good suit is always in my bag with me. So when a brand I love, Hockerty being a favorite, finds inspiration in a place, I pay attention. I wrote about their summer edit a while ago, with their colors at the forefront of my attention. But I missed something. I missed that all fourteen looks they debuted were inspired by different places in Italy.
