Back of Homage KC jacket — HOMAGE

If you are a child of the 90s, you don’t need to be introduced to the name Starter. We all remember coveting our friend’s jackets when they walked into the school wearing the Starter jacket of our favorite team. There is a list of iconic Starter jackets, namely the teal colorway for the Charlotte Hornets. You didn’t even have to be a fan of Mugsy Bogues or Charles Johnson (Grandmama notwithstanding, obviously) to rock one of those. Every Christmas, kids everywhere flocked to see if they were lucky enough to land a coat with a zipper featuring the S and star logo. Now, vintage recreation expert HOMAGE has teamed up with Starter to bring you a new line of coach-inspired NFL jackets for your pleasure.

Man wearing Cowboys Homage jacket — HOMAGE

There are seven jackets in this collection at the moment. The Kansas City Chiefs, because you have to have something for the Swifties, right? The Dallas Cowboys because it is America’s team, or at least it used to be when Emmit Smith was there. The San Francisco 49ers because we all miss Joe Montana. The Philadelphia Eagles because something has to make Dallas fans angry every year. The Cincinnati Bengals because you need to have the color orange in there somewhere. The Miami Dolphins because the Southeast needs to be represented. And the Cleveland Browns because you have to be reminded there are two teams in Ohio. All jokes aside, these are some of the most storied and legendary teams in the NFL, and now you get the opportunity to wear the same jackets as their legendary head coaches did on the sidelines. Whether you are a fan of these teams or not, there is something for every sports fan to love with HOMAGE’s throwbacks.

Ben Sherman gets help from Denny McCarthy for new golf drop

New Golf Drop won't improve your putting game, but you'll look better

Ben Sherman became one of the premiere shirtmakers in the men's style industry when they launched his first button-down after watching jazz musicians rock the button-down shirts. When the Mod Movement moved through London and eventually the rest of the UK, men began dressing smartly in tailored suits, skinny ties and lapels, and pointed shoes. Men would spend more on the Chelsea boots of the Swinging Sixties and the collared shirt, making Ben Sherman a mainstay in their closet. Now, the brand spans the spectrum of men's style and has launched a golf line that offers style and comfort. The Ben Sherman Golf Collection, endorsed by Denny McCarthy, is a stellar continuation of the line but with only one setback.
Won't make you a better putter, but it'll make you look like one

Denny McCarthy is one of the best putters in the world. On the PGA Tour, he averaged twenty-three puts in a round, five fewer than the average golfer on the tour. He is the guy you go to watch if your putting game is as bad as ours. He is also one of the tour's better-styled golfers, as the spectrum spans from Tiger Woods and his basic colors to John Daly with his "just rolled out of bed and still smoking his morning cigarette" look. McCarthy is a guy who found the middle ground with attractive looks and colorful options without going overboard. His endorsement of the Ben Sherman Golf Collection gives you the guidance you need to look like Denny on the course. While Ben Sherman can't make you one of the greatest putters in the world, they can at least help you look like one.

Tua Tagovailoa uses inspiration from his roots in collab with Perry Ellis

Perry Ellis x Tua Tagovailoa are Always Ready

Tua Tagovailoa in a Perry Ellis Suit

Perry Ellis was a pioneer in the fashion industry. He never seemed to want to do things the way everyone else did. He was the kind of man who was always forward-thinking and wanted fashion to be fun, not just stylish. His brand continues to be on the cutting edge of fashion, always making statements you can carry in your daily wardrobe. The brand does it again with another Perry Ellis x Tua Tagovailoa collaboration that blends the superstar quarterback's elevated fashion sense with his roots in Hawaii.

"I don't make fashion -- I make clothes," the late designer once said. "The clothes cross all the points of my personal lifestyle. They're to wear in the city or the country, to work, or to go out." The sentiment rings true still today with the new collection with Tua, who finds the same cross point with his style and his heritage.

Subdued colors and luxurious fabrics define Buck Mason FW2024

Fall blues, browns, and grays dominate the collection

The fall season is when the colors of the world begin to show off. The brilliant oranges, reds, yellows, and greens shine through the summer's looks of vegetation to remind you that, while the season is the sign that change is coming, they are still alive and well for the time being. For the man's wardrobe, that tends to be the opposite direction. While the world is showing off its majestic hues, we men tend to subdue our colors and go in for the deeper colors that don't shine as brightly. Burgundy, forest green, brown, gray, and blue seem to reign during these months. Maybe we don't want to steal the Earth's thunder. In any case, Buck Mason leaned heavily into the idea with their new fall lineup. The Buck Mason fall collection lands with a healthy grouping of cashmere, flannel, and some very select colors perfect for the autumn.
A collection of blues, grays, and browns

When you look at the new collection from one of our favorite brands, the first thing that will stand out is the commitment to the subdued hues of the fall tradition. The browns of the tweed overcoat and the rugby polo will work perfectly as you walk through the park in the changing foliage. The blues of the sport coat, suit, and denim will keep you stylishly casual in the office, and the gray scale from black to white will bring it all together in a sensationally timeless capsule that speaks volumes for the season.
