The duffle bag is almost certainly the most versatile bag in your closet. Its long, cylindrical shape, paired with its soft sides allows for the storing and carrying items that aren’t just your standard cloth clothing. From shoes to sports equipment to books and camping gear, the duffle bag can hold and help you heft it all. The soft-sided shape also allows you to fit it into tight spaces or readjust things while on the go to make stowing and storing easier.

And now, one lucky reader will win our new favorite duffle bag from one of the best leather-makers working in American today, WP Standard.

Inspired by the duck canvas military duffle bags provided to U.S. soldiers during the Vietnam War, WP Standard’s modern iteration of the bag is built from genuine full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather in a rich, glossy black. As the brand notes, “Realizing that not everyone needs the massive capacity of a full duffel bag for military deployment, we downsized our version to be more appropriate for a few days away.”

Other features include a soft-nap, almost-suede-like interior, a long shoulder strap with padding to make long-distance carrying a little easier on your frame, a side-handle for quick-grabs, an external pocket that’s perfectly sized for a passport or wallet, and an approximate weight of 4.25 pounds, which isn’t a lot considering the thickness and quality of the leather.

If you like the looks of this bag and want to put yourself in the running for a chance at snagging this $340 value for free, just enter our giveaway below and sit back and wait for the results.

The Gentleman’s Guide to Wedding Attire
Wedding toast

As a menswear writer, I take pride in snazzy dressing. You can imagine my chagrin when I showed up to a recent wedding as the worst-dressed groomsman. It had been a perfect storm of sartorial mishaps. I’d slimmed down since the last time I wore black tie, leaving the jacket and cummerbund baggy. My favorite cuff links had vanished on a work trip. To complete the fiasco, my tuxedo shirt bore an archipelago of merlot stains from a Christmas party in late ’25.

Fortunately, I had the chance to salvage my dignity at another wedding a few weeks later. I rallied like Rocky. Rush alterations. New cuff links. A crisp Marcella shirt. Polished black shoes. I went from disheveled schlub to black-tie stud.

TAG Heuer just brought back its best Japanese racing collab
Watch, Dial, Logo

TAG Heuer just announced the second Carrera collaboration with Team Ikuzawa and Bamford Watch Department, three years after their first one together — and this time, they went back to a stopwatch.

The watch is built on TAG Heuer’s 39mm Carrera Glassbox, the modern take on the original 1963 Carrera that swaps a bezel for a highly domed sapphire crystal. But the design here pulls specifically from the Heuer Roadmaster, a vintage timing stopwatch Team Ikuzawa used trackside through the ’70s and ’80s, not from any particular car or race.

Gearheads and luxury car enthusiasts will be descending on Florida on February 19th through the 21st as the Cavallino Classic looks to return to Southern Florida for another edition. A collection of some of the most iconic Ferraris from every era is expected to be on display for the three-day event meant to showcase a century of craftsmanship and artistry. Even better, the event has a little extra throttle this year as it celebrates the brand’s 80th anniversary.

We measure our programming by whether it gives Club members and resort guests something they cannot find anywhere else. Cavallino Classic does that. It is not only for collectors and enthusiasts. It is for anyone who appreciates rare craftsmanship and a weekend built around it – Daniel Hostettler, President & CEO of The Boca Raton
