Adidas Samstag Sneakers
Football and fashion have been getting very cosy recently and here’s a prime example of why it works. The Samstag (‘Saturday’ in German) recalls the best of trefoil brand’s ’80s sportswear but the bright colourway means it’ll slip into any streetwear rotation in 2019. Buy Now: £100.00
Carhartt WIP Embroidered Sweatshirt
Few labels can stake an authentic claim on the rustproof workwear trend like Carhartt. Here the brand takes its hardy construction into retro sportswear with the Chase range. It includes this raglan-sleeve sweatshirt in a shade that will go with everything you own, every month of the year. Buy Now: £65.00
Grenson City Backpack
You know Grenson as an ever-reliable shoemaker that walks the fine line between fashion and tradition better than almost anyone. What you might not know is that it also does great accessories. Its latest backpack is everything you need for the city: smart storage, including a padded laptop compartment, comfortable shoulder straps and pared-back good looks for the commute. Buy Now: £160.00
Tom Ford Stretch-Cotton Boxer Briefs
Sometimes it pays to be a little indulgent. Sure, spending £60 on a single pair of boxer shorts can be classed as more than a little, but your old boy will thank you, probably. Breathable beige cotton, a grosgrain waistband and ‘TOM FORD’ scribbled across the front – the designer’s first foray into underwear. What more could you want? Another pair in all black, maybe. Buy Now: £60.00
SCRT x Izzie Hill Leon Hoodie
While we can’t imagine Leon wearing this bright orange hoodie, this homage to the 1994 cult film is worthy for inclusion in this week’s list, mostly for bringing to our attention once again just how well Jean Reno wore a beanie. Buy Now: £80.00
Reiss’ suede overshirt errs close to peak outerwear attractiveness and is the ideal spring mid layer, though you’ll probably want to swerve the ol’ April showers. Buy Now: £350.00
M&S Collection Slim Fit Chinos
Once spring hits, you can basically live in chinos until October. Especially when they’re this well cut and this affordable. Extra kudos to M&S for its recent push into sustainable cotton, not to mention a rainbow of staple colours. Buy Now: £19.50
Gant 4-Pocket Summer Jacket
How does a preppy brand like Gant get in on the rough-and-ready workwear trend? Simple. Take a worker-style jacket but give it plush details like notch lapels that you’d normally find on a blazer and a cotton-linen blend that makes it so soft to touch that you’d wear it to a garden party as easily as you would a walk in the woods.
