The Best Men’s Cashmere Clothing in Summer 2022

Naadam

What is it about cashmere that immediately makes us think of the most luxurious warmth known to man? Pure cashmere is one of the softest and rarest fibers in the world, hence its opulent status and comparable price tag. Cashmere is generally sourced from goats in places like Inner Mongolia and Italy where harsh climates have helped to develop super warm wool. Before purchasing a cashmere product, consider its feel, finish, and appearance: it should be pillowy, even-finished, and have a subtle sheen. From updated and upgraded sweaters to accessories to keep you toasty from your top to your toes, we’ve selected ten must-have cashmere clothing pieces for men to keep you warm all summer long.

How do you know if you have style? Well, it is a bit of a Rorschach test. It can tell people around us who we are and what we think of ourselves. It can tell people more than we think. Some of us are mavericks, shirking the rules and subverting expectations at every turn, simply because we don't like to be put in boxes. Other groups of us like rules and we want the comfort that order and uniformity bring us. Then, even more of us are somewhere in the middle when it comes to men's style and crave order and uniformity to allow us to find our boundaries, only to shirk them later when we want to feel free. Men's fashion offers us all of the above.

Now, before we start throwing a bunch of rules at you, remember something vital: Rules are made to be broken. Artists do this all the time. They take a conventional rule and begin to push the boundaries until the rule is now ... as Captain Barbosa would put it ..."more of a guideline than an actual rule." Fashion is the same. True style is living within your own expression of the rules and pushing the boundaries until you express who you are. Now, there is definitely a balance here. While some rules are made to be broken, others are tried-and-true staples to live on.

The best fall running gear for men to run in comfort
We've got the lowdown on gear you need to stay comfortable as the weather gets colder

Fall weather is often the sweet spot for running. With the sweltering, muggy summer runs in the rearview mirror and the frigid winds and icy roads of the winter yet to come, autumn has bright, sunny skies and dry, crisp air that leaves your lungs and legs feeling like you could float along the roads or trails for miles upon miles. Fall is an ideal season to run a marathon or step up your training before the darkness and cold of winter descends.
That said, fall weather can be variable -- bridging the gap between the hot summer, where you aim to wear as little as you can get away with, and the freezing winter, where you’re decked out in multiple layers to cover every inch of exposed skin. Your fall running wardrobe should have light, breathable options for shorts, pants, short- and long-sleeved tops, and a light running jacket or vest. Depending on the climate in which you live and your personal preference, running gloves and a thin hat can also be helpful. To help you fully enjoy each and every run this fall in comfort, our top picks for the best fall running gear for men are below.

Oxfords

We don't know if this was the first dress shoe. It probably wasn't. Guys dressed up before Oxford students in the 1800s, right? Anyway, this is the most famous dress shoe, and for good reason. Originating on the campus of the namesake university, the Oxford is known by its closed lace system, meeting at the end of the laces in a 'V' shape. This keeps everything nice and tight, looking very put together.
