The Taylor Stitch x Stetson Collab Is the Partnership of Our Dreams

There are some collaborations that are very nearly too good to be true — a meeting of the minds between two brands that makes so much sense, and produces such stylish results, you wonder why it hadn’t happened before. Or perhaps, you wonder if you dreamed it. That’s high praise, but that’s the way we feel about the

Taylor Stitch x Stetson collaboration

, a recently launched menswear offering that blends a heritage hatmaker (that’d be Stetson) with a brand that embodies the spirit of the modern man (Taylor Stitch, naturally).

The two have come together on a capsule collection rollout this winter that’s available for pre-funding right now exclusive via Taylor Stitch. Run, don’t walk, to pick up your new favorite menswear for 2020 (and well beyond). The offering encompasses beautiful denim, a standout pair of moto boots, updated takes on the classic Western shirt, and, of course, the coolest hats around, with prices ranging from $125 to $348.

The Taylor Stitch team feels the capsule collection plays off what both brands do best, Taylor Stitch Co-Founder and CEO Michael Maher said.

“All in all, the Taylor Stitch x Stetson collaboration allows us to leverage each other’s customer networks to introduce both brands to new audience members,” he elaborated. “By launching exciting products through our innovative Workshop model, we’re able to welcome new customers while also limiting waste of valuable physical & financial resources.”

Going beyond the classic offerings at Stetson has yielded some standout results (we think). Witness the handsome, rugged Natural Corded Western Shirt or the Stetson Road Warrior Hat (a packable hat made to be worn on plenty of adventures). The end result is a collaboration to be savored, enjoyed, and worn on the open road. In fact, you could pair multiple pieces from the collaboration together in one ensemble, from your Stetson hat right on down to the rugged, simply beautiful moto boots that the two brands produced.

The only drawback? You’ll have to wait until March, when collaboration product begins shipping out, to get started on making your own memories in Taylor Stitch x Stetson. Of course, good things come to those who wait.

For love of the game: Baseballism and P.F. Flyers collab
Legends never die with Baseballism
Baseballism_P.F. Flyers three guys by a scoreboard

P.F. Flyers have been around for nearly a century, on the feet of thousands of athletes since the 1930s. But for us millennials, there is only one athlete we think of when we think of P.F. Flyers. These shoes helped Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez to best the Beast in The Sandlot. For baseball fans, we still see Benny as the guy who introduced us to what it meant to be a hero and taught us that legends never die. Needless to say, we all want a pair of P.F. Flyers. Now, they are teaming up with the other icon of the baseball apparel world, Baseballism. Sporting the names, faces, and logos of the legends that will never die for us, Baseballism is the go-to for all the baseball swag. A new collaboration between these two brands gives us shoes and clothing that even "The Jet" himself would wear.

“Since 1937, P.F. Flyers have been on the feet of countless heroes and part of the fabric of American history," says Kassia Davis, Executive Chairwoman at PF. Flyers. "Now, with the innovations of the baseball lifestyle brand Baseballism, we’ve created a striking fusion that celebrates the vibrant spirit of 1960s baseball. This exclusive collection marries P.F. Flyers’ storied sneaker heritage with Baseballism’s deep-rooted love for the game, creating a tribute to an era that defined the American pastime.”

Men’s fashion made simple: Taylor Stitch introduces functional capsules
Capsules perfect for work and play

As guys, we love simplicity. Don't make us think too hard about something that feels inconsequential or we will dismiss it and move on to more important things in life. What we wear has always fallen into that category. Don't make style or fashion too complicated or we will just wear what is comfortable and focus our brains on something else entirely. American mainstay brand Taylor Stitch always looks to challenge the fashion industry by finding new, better, and more responsible ways to source, sew, and sell their product. Now, they have moved to making comfort, style, and functionality all simple and accessible through the release of their first-ever outdoor capsule and the return of their workwear capsule.

Luke McAlpine, VP of Brand for Taylor Stitch, comments on the launches. “We’ve put a ton of work into these capsules with the goal being to offer a range of overbuilt gear that connects to the kind of multifaceted lifestyle we and our customers live. We’re especially excited to be able to re-introduce our Made in USA Good Acre line as part of our fall assortment.”
