Christmas is a time for celebration and cocktail party dress codes. We are coming together as a family to rejoice in another year of accomplishments, experiences, and times spent in each other’s presence. Of course, the holidays are also a time when that one person can’t help but say something controversial and get the whole family hoppin’ mad and all fired up about their viewpoint. Hopefully, that debate will be something as fun as a hot take on Star Wars, and you can spend the holiday debating or ruminating. Maybe your brother thinks the Jedis are the true villains. Maybe your uncle believes the Ewoks ruined the original trilogy. Maybe your niece argues that Rogue One is the best Star Wars movie. No matter what argument pops up for the holiday, Gap is making sure you can defend your position in the galaxy far, far away with a Gap x Star Wars collection.

You can ensure your entire family is decked out in their gear and picking a side, as there are pieces for men, women, and children.

Taylor Stitch’s Morse pant is the upgrade your chinos need

Add more depth to your chino wardrobe with something unique

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.

Iconic American bootmaker Nicks Boots branches out with new jackets

The work boot legend is keeping more than your feet warm

Nicks Boots Ranchman

For years, the legend of Nicks Boots has been growing exponentially. While they are known for their high-quality and durable boots, their legend grows in part due to disasters. Six of the twenty worst wildfires in the last decade have taken place in the American West, and Nicks Boots has been the choice of the men who fought them. The Hot Shot is the choice of the National Fire Protection Agency, which has adorned the feet of firefighters for years. They are also the choice for military, law enforcement, blue-collar workers, and men who love a rugged hobby boot. But they are not simply keeping your feet warm any longer. Launching Nicks Boots outerwear allows the company to keep you warm and dry whether you are in the field or escaping civilization for a weekend away.
Tough enough for work, stylish enough for play

There isn't a better companion to a rugged hobby boot or durable workboot than a coat to match it stylistically and in functionality. They offer three coats: The Patriot, The Patriot in leather, and The Ranchman. All three are part of a collaboration with Heat Straps, a company founded by two firefighter brothers. Just like the Hot Shot boot, if you want something tough and capable, get it from the people who spend their time needing to be capable in tough environments. With a statement like "They may not make them like they used to, but we do," Heat Straps offers the perfect expertise for a made-in-America jacket to compliment the best made-in-America boots.

Hockerty adds Italian icon fabric mills to a deepening suit collection

Hockerty adds Loro Piana and Cerruti to their suit line up

Hockerty is one of the leaders in the ever-widening online suit business. While we as a society have developed a firm grasp on online shopping over the last few decades, suits have always been a business struggling to keep up with the increasingly low brick-and-mortar turnout due to the in-depth process of getting just the right suit. Thanks to innovations in their process, Hockerty has become one of the best in getting as close to perfection in this field as we can expect. Recently, they expanded to an Italian Suits collection, bringing in the best of the best fabrics from mills all over the beloved country. They have added to the collection as you can now pick up Hockerty suits with fabrics from iconic Italian mills, Loro Piana and Cerruti.
Iconic mills Loro Piana and Cerruti

Cerruti began when Nico Cerruti's grandfather started a spinning mill. In 1950, before Nico even hit two decades on the planet, he took over and began building what we know now as Cerruti 1881. Being one of the top 5 drapers in all of Italy, they are a fantastic addition to the Hockerty line. For Loro Piana, it is a pop culture moment for the century-old brand. It is the go-to for billionaires everywhere, and it cemented that reputation with the appearance of Kendal Roy's (Jeremy Strong) kind of style in Succession. Now, we're not talking about Hockerty pushing a $25,000 car coat like Loro Piana is, but having fabric from their mill in the collection allows those of us not heir to a billionaire fortune to look and feel like we are.
