Get 3D measured for your new favorite chinos

We’ve been keeping an eye on Woodies Clothing since they took the custom shirt world by storm—they were fully funded within seven hours of launching on Kickstarter in April 2014 and followed up with a second campaign in July 2015. 

They’re back on the scene with a new offering—custom chinos. This time full funding of $15,000 on Kickstarter came in within THREE HOURS! So far it’s brought in more than $57,000 and counting. With the campaign still running, there’s time for you to cash in on their incentives.

I caught up with founder Jacob Wood to find out the inspiration behind this new offering.

“As a founder, I’ve always been interested in what my customers say and what their feedback is,” he said. About a year ago he sent out a survey to gauge interest in the next great product. He asked about custom blazers, ties, suits and chinos and received an enthusiastic response for the chinos.

woodies perfect chinos“Probably 80% opt for our 3D measuring,” he said. “Just plug in height, weight, average shirt size, and the size of pants you typically wear and from that we can calculate all your measurements.”

Woodies currently offers a choice of eight fabrics in a range of colors. Plus, you can choose your back pockets, pleats, cuff hem or plain hem. The regular price is $125.

We love the great guarantee that comes with these pants. Wood promises the fit will be perfect. If you think it needs adjustment, he asks that you take the pants to your local Salvation Army and Woodies will send you a complimentary remake.

Wood is confident, though, that you’ll love them from the moment you put them on. “They’re the best pants ever.”

Spring style: The blue dress shirt is the secret weapon of the season
This is the shirt every man needs in his closet, especially in the spring

There is the four-legged stool for men that refers to the four tailored garments every man should have in his closet. The charcoal suit, the blue suit, the gray suit, and the blazer. These allow you to be ready for everything, from the big meeting in the boardroom to the after-hours event, without spending a ton of money on a dozen suits. Versatility is key. The same concept exists for shirts. You need a handful of shirts that can be worn when pitching the big proposal in the office or grabbing drinks with friends. While the white shirt is the baseline shirt every man should have, there is one shirt that is even more important; the blue dress shirt for men is the secret weapon. It is versatile, attractive, and easy to wear. Here's what you need to know about the most vital shirt in your wardrobe.

Seiko adds gorgeous new dial colors to Presage Style60’s collection
The Presage collection is getting better by the day
Seiko Presage 2025

Seiko adds three new watches to the Presage Style60's collection with striking dial colors—green, yellow, and purple. Apart from reimagining the dial in different colors, the brand also revamped the design, merging retro aesthetics with the contemporary style for an elevated look. While this line was unveiled with a 40.5 mm casing, the brand downsized the casing to 39.55 mm in 2024. Like the models rolled out in 2024, the latest additions also feature a 39.5 mm casing, highlighted by bright dial colors.

In terms of design, the brand added a circular groove to the dial to create depth—a small detail that makes the front face look modern. And just above the 6 o’clock, there’s a small white date window that accentuates the beautiful contrast between the upper and lower sections.

Formex Space Glacier

Formex presents a new watch, the Space Glacier, in different sizes to diversify the Essence collection. Like the original model dating back to 2018, the 2025 edition stands out due to the Widmanstätten pattern, which is accentuated by a rough texture that adds depth to the front face. The crystal-like appearance is unique and varies from one model to the next.

This new addition draws some inspiration from older models launched in the past few years, such as the Essence Space Gold.
