U.S. Soccer just dropped its new USMNT team kits this week ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and they're instant classics. If you expected the usual home whites and away reds or blues, hold on. This time around they went for it. We are given two kits, two distinct personalities, and a design process that actually involved the players who'll be wearing them.

The J.Crew Barbour barn jacket has been around for a minute, but the pair just released an exclusive to J.Crew color combination. The waxed cotton is navy, and the corduroy collar is black. It's a city-ready take on Barbour's country look.

MAAP is a brand known for its collaborations. Typically, these collabs are with other cycling brands, or at least industry-adjacent brands. But, sometimes, it isn't, much like this current collaboration with Perks and Mini, aka P.A.M. And, it is actually MAAP's fourth time working with P.A.M. The Australian brand formed in 2000 by fashion designers Shauna Toohey and Misha Hollenbach. Since its origins, P.A.M. has pushed its boundaries, growing into an international brand focused on creativity across "fashion, art, music, and beyond..."

It's easier than ever to buy a suit. Mall mainstays like J.Crew make very good ones in a range of fits, with a seasonally rotating selection of new and interesting cloths. Affordable specialists like Suitsupply and Spier & Mackay offer impressive quality while pricing everything from two-button jackets to full-fledged tuxedos for far less than it seems they should be able to.

Lotti explained that Nike has been working with air as a cushioning technology in footwear for half a century, but they've barely scratched the surface of what air can do. The interesting twist? From a design perspective, they're working with a medium that's completely invisible. You can't see air, you can't touch it in the traditional sense, yet it's proving to be one of the most versatile materials in their arsenal.

AC Milan are expected to announce a new collaboration with PUMA and Slam Jam shortly, and a new piece from the collection has been shown. It is nothing new for Milan to have mid-season collabs with fashion brands. Over the past years, there have been several, with the partnership with Off-White being the showcase example from last season, which included two different kits.

The men whose style stand out on the slopes know that difference lies in the details - the cut, the fabrics, the finish. These men won't settle for bulky jackets or purely functional one-pieces; instead they look to luxury men's skiwear that works hard. Designs that are technical enough to handle the cold and the powder, yet polished enough to pass muster in any ski lodge or après-ski bar.

Beneath a dome that once watched over the French Communist Party's debates in the 1970s, a large self-illuminating dinner table is prepared. Its oval shape stands in the middle of a room noisy with conversation and Object Blue's elegant, beat-driven dinner soundtrack. Guests like Gabbriette, Cruz Beckham, Paloma Elsesser, Damson Idris, ASAP Nast and Pusha T gather under a DayGlo hanging light box. The setting looks, not at all accidentally, like Kubrick's vision of a war room in Dr. Strangelove. And it is a party.

If you've ever fidgeted with a pen during a long meeting or phone call, you know the appeal of a good click. But this takes it to another level. The bolt-action deployment is smooth, satisfying, and way more robust than a standard clicker.

As with anything military-inspired, we're inclined tell you the best version of a B-3 bomber is real, genuine military surplus. The problem is that original B-3 bomber jackets aged like milk sitting out on the counter. The military stopped issuing the jacket during World War IIit was already getting phased out by 1943and those that were issued almost all saw use with high-altitude bomber crews, so that's part of the problem.

Both are made in Scotland with Mackintosh's most famous innovation, waterproofed cotton, with the inclusion of CP Company's equally recognizable goggles in the hood. The coats are handmade, with panels being sewn, attached and sealed in Mackintosh's Scottish factory in North Lanarkshire, where seams are coated in water repellent to provide protection from both wind and rain. The two styles, the longer goggle car coat and waist-length goggle jacket, come with raglan sleeves, hidden fastenings, and adjustable cuffs.

There wasn't kidswear in this show, but for Vevers his other two, slightly older children played a pivotal role. The wonderment of his five-year-old kids watching The Wizard of Oz for the first time was a trigger for this show - most evident in outfits switching from sepia-dulled monochrome to chromatic brights. Example? Beaten-up black denim shorts, an inky cotton shirt and grey tie, followed by its mirror opposite in - fittingly - red, white and blue jeans.

Our all-time favorite shirt jacket Pros The best unstructured fit Durable Cons An investment Alex Mill's work jacket is one of our most beloved, and we're counting it as a shirt jacket. Why shouldn't we? It's made with garment-dyed denim, the chore coat's signature front pockets and all the swag in the world. It's an excellent replacement for a blazer in a more-casual-than-business work environment. And we would knowit's an Esquire editor favorite.

in the Swiss backcountry. They're young men, both seemingly carefree and indestructible. During their run down the mountain, the pair notice an inn, remove their skis, and step inside for a drink and some apple strudel. There's an old stove throwing off heat; cigarette smoke wafts through the place. After Nick orders wine for both of them, he turns to George and says:
