The world is a beautiful place, and we have only recently begun endeavoring to protect it in the way we should. While the fashion industry is near the top of the list of the most wasteful, companies are beginning to be more conscientious of the impact their business has on the world around them. As you can imagine, brands that offer garments and gear to explore the outdoors are near the top of the list of companies that want to protect their most precious commodity, the Earth, and the people who thirst for the adventure to explore it. DUER is a brand at the forefront of technologically advanced ways to improve clothing and stay conscientious of their impact on the world. DUER Sustainability is one of the tops in the industry at 85% plant-based fibers.

Plant pants built for doing

DUER began as a Kickstarter backed by the idea that you can do more. They pushed the boundaries of what could be done in a single pair of pants and have grown to provide all of us with the most comfortable pants you own. They also “built for doing,” which means they want you to get outside and explore the world. With that desire for you to explore comes a deep love for the planet and the adventures it offers us when we get out of the office. To protect it, they have focused on sourcing natural fibers that are easier on the environment than the synthetic heavy alternatives favored by most brands because they are cheap and easy. DUER is built for doing, and they are taking it beyond their product and into the world of ecological responsibility.

I wore Men’s Wearhouse every day for a week — here’s what I discovered
Here are my thoughts on one of the biggest menswear destinations on the market
Man in Men's Wearhouse Blue Suit

I have always been a guy that loved a good suit. As a matter of fact, at one point, I was only comfortable in suits, and I had to get out of my comfort zone to elevate my streetwear and casual looks. I recognize that is the opposite of most people; welcome to my world. Virtually everything I do is the opposite of the rest of the population. So, when I needed to buy a new suit, I started researching, and one place kept coming up in the recommendations and the Google searches: Men's Wearhouse. I wanted something upscale, something with a little more punch. And if I am being honest, I always felt like Men's Wearhouse was that place you went to if you needed to rent a tux for prom or a wedding or if you needed a suit really quick. But now that I have spent over a decade in the industry, I gave it another chance and decided to wear the brand every day for a week to discover once and for all if Men's Wearhouse is worth it.
Tailored clothing

When considering , you almost always go right to their tailored offerings. Of course, as a man who loves suits, I love to wear them as often as possible, so I am going to wear a suit or some kind of tailored garment every day to work. Something about them simply makes me feel better. Here is how they looked during my week.

The Normal Released the best blazer of the fall and you can still get it
Elevate your tailored wardrobe with the ultimate casual blazer of 2025
The Normal Brand Corduroy Blazer

You know us, we LOVE a good suit and a good sport coat. When they are done right, they are the best kind of garment, tailored perfectly, elevated, and stylish; the job is almost done for you. Whether you are looking for the best suit on the market or whether you need an excellent sport coat for the office, certain styles are classic. The navy and blue options are never going out of style; the tweed look is the perfect fall and winter variety. But The Normal Brand had a different idea this season, and it ended up being the best option of the fall, and people noticed. The Normal Brand Hawthorne Cord Blazer shakes up your tailored wardrobe in the best way possible.
Reinvent your tailored wardrobe

If you think back to 2021, a trend made a brief appearance and then slipped away quietly without much fanfare. Daniel Craig appeared in his final turn as James Bond in No Time to Die and rocked a three-piece corduroy suit in the opening salvo. While the look didn't blow up how it should have, the image still sears four years later. The Normal Brand piggybacked on that idea and offered a double-breasted blazer option that elevates your tailored wardrobe with a casual look that makes you look as sleek as James Bond without the stylist. It is extra warm, making it perfect for winter. It was popular enough that it is going quickly, but if you're lucky enough to get your hands on one, it will be your go-to all winter long.

Taylor Stitch’s Morse pant is the upgrade your chinos need
Add more depth to your chino wardrobe with something unique
Taylor Stitch Morse Pant Close Up

One of the great things about chinos is that they are always in style and always appropriate, no matter the time of year. In the spring, they pair with a polo and light jacket; in the summer, they are a linen shirt's perfect companion; in the fall, they work well with your rugged boots and flannels; and in winter, they are a sweater's best friend. In short, it is always sweater season. But the downside of that is that chinos can get boring. The run-of-the-mill cotton chino can feel like the same old thing. Taylor Stitch is a company that likes to take the same old thing and make it new and better. That is why the Taylor Stitch Morse Pant is the upgrade your chino collection needs this winter.
Add depth and texture to a classic look

While your chinos are likely solid brushed cotton that keeps you in style year after year with their simplicity, the Morse Pant offers something a little different. The subtle herringbone pattern will help you stand out while keeping your style classic and toned down. Combining these with a textured shirt like a waffle henley or utility shirt gives the look a textured nuance that any man's wardrobe needs.
