MatchBack Subscription Box is a Monthly Gift to You and Needy Teens

MatchBack
Our clothes send important messages to the world. They represent our style, our self confidence, our point of view and values. The right outfit can change the way you perceive others and the way they perceive you. MatchBack, a new monthly subscription box, wants to not only provide you with a stylish, limited-edition shirt and accessories, but they also provide a box to a deserving teen in need.

There are several companies that give one when you get one, but MatchBack makes the policy really personal. The California-based company takes a while to pick their partners, thoroughly vetting a diverse number of organizations — like mentoring clubs, foster care providers, school staff and coaches, social workers, case officers, even police departments — to reach the greatest number of teens. Current partners include the YMCA, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Promises 2 Kids, Ridgecrest Autism Awareness, Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children of Kern County, the Dream Center, and the Kern County Network for Children.

MatchBack doesn’t just hand over a box full of cool clothes. The team trusts individuals — coaches, counselors, mentors, etc. — to pick a deserving teen and present him/her with an artfully packaged MatchBack box complete with a brand-new, limited-edition tee and hat. It’s a personal gift, with the goal of making the recipient feel special instead of a charity case. So far, MatchBack has matched over 670,000 bundles with over 200 mentors in the network.

As for what you get, each month the company offers a shirt and hat (and sometimes another accessory) in an exclusive design available for that period only — all for $37 a month. For September, MatchBack teamed up with Blenders Eyewear, a San Diego-based company that typifies that California cool look. You’ll receive a gray tee with Blenders’ signature double slash logo, a black baseball cap, and, of course, an awesome pair of Blenders shades that will never go out of style.

The next month’s design is ready for preview on the 25th of the current month. You can cancel your subscription anytime, even modify the date you’re billed if need be — it’s a very flexible subscription. You also have the option of donating your bundle as well as the matched one.

With MatchBack, you get a gift, and so does a great teen in a tough situation. It’s literally the gift that keeps on giving.

Taylor Stitch proves that Made in America is still popular
International production may be popular but Made in America is selling out
Taylor Stitch Made in USA jacket

Many clothing brands make a decision at some point during the scale-up phase to ship manufacturing jobs overseas in an effort to increase their profits. That, in turn, increases the value of their stocks, and the growth just skyrockets from there. However, that means jobs go away and, in a lot of ways, means the quality suffers a little. That is why garments that are made in America just feel different. They feel stronger and more durable and let you take a feeling of pride in what you wear. That is why Taylor Stitch put together a collection of items Made in America that embody the spirit of home while making you look and feel great. But before you run over to the site and grab up all you can, you need to know one thing about the Taylor Stitch Made in America collection.
Items are flying off the shelves

The three most significant and most popular items in the collection are a collaboration with San Francisco legend Golden Bear Sportswear, the Golden Bear Snap Bomber, which balances vintage curb appeal with heirloom quality construction to earn its place as the go-to statement piece in your wardrobe. While it still has limited sizes available, the the Camp Pant in Rigid Indigo Sashiko and Mill Shirt Jacket in Rigid Indigo Sashiko are completely sold out. What does that tell us? Other than Taylor Stitch makes excellent quality homemade products, the people love them. We will keep our eye on those in hopes that they come back. Partly for you and partly because we want to get our hands on them as well.

Dr. Martens releases new collaboration
models starting at dr martens in midair

Although Dr. Martens has built its legacy as a go-to for boots, it’s hardly been considered rugged material- until now. With their latest collaboration with thisisneverthat, Dr. Martens is taking its classic styles and giving it a tough upgrade. Donning a new look each, these are far from the fresh and sleek new boots you’ve grown accustomed to. These new workwear boots are made to be worn out, give your footwear a unique story, and maximize use. Using iconic details from both brands, the latest workwear boots will add style to your everyday looks.

Banana Republic taps The White Lotus star for SS25 campaign
Nicholas Duvernay is a model for the first time
Banana Republic

Banana Republic is a staple in accessible fashion. It isn't a brand that lives only on the runways where everyday people feel disconnected, and it is more elevated than the run-of-the-mill selections those men who care little for style and standards prefer. It carved a place for itself in the middle, accessible for all and loved by most. With their launch of the spring and summer line, they tapped the star of The White Lotus, Nicholas Duvernay, to model the new pieces, and even though he had never done it before, he looked like a natural.

"Banana Republic’s pieces are timeless, blending the brand’s heritage with modern styles," says Nicholas Duvernay. "The craftsmanship and quality fabrics make them as comfortable as they are elevated—perfect for a night in the city or a weekend getaway. Shooting this campaign was an incredible experience, celebrating style, quality, and the spirit of exploration that defines Banana Republic."
