On the long list of brands we have grown accustomed to checking first when we need something for our wardrobe, The Gap has always been up there as one of the very top. It is one of the bridges between high quality and affordability that bring quiet luxury to your doorstep. They are always on our list, from their stylish jeans and basic polos to their fleece collection that makes us comfortable during the holidays. They kicked off their fall season by releasing what may become the last hoodie you may ever need. This month saw them drop their new Extra Heavyweight Hoodie, making this season the warmest it will be in a long time.

More than your average hoodie

Of course, a hoodie is just a hoodie, right? Well, no, of course, there is more to it. This particular hoodie has a few things going for it that none other has. On the technical side, it sports a premium weight of 650gsm; the Extra Heavyweight Oversized Hoodie is 250gsm heavier than our existing Heavyweight fleece collection. That is also triple the weight of the brand’s standard fleece collection. The second thing it has going for it is the connection to social media. The hoodie is created in partnership with TikTok content creator Julia Huynh, known for her viral content series chronicling her search for the ultimate “hoodie that hoodies.”

Available in six colors, this is the perfect hoodie for a cold winter day. Pair it with jeans and boots for the iconic autumn look, or elevate it with chinos, Chelsea boots, and a jacket for a smart casual look that will be remembered.

The Gentleman’s Guide to Wedding Attire

As a menswear writer, I take pride in snazzy dressing. You can imagine my chagrin when I showed up to a recent wedding as the worst-dressed groomsman. It had been a perfect storm of sartorial mishaps. I’d slimmed down since the last time I wore black tie, leaving the jacket and cummerbund baggy. My favorite cuff links had vanished on a work trip. To complete the fiasco, my tuxedo shirt bore an archipelago of merlot stains from a Christmas party in late ’25.

Fortunately, I had the chance to salvage my dignity at another wedding a few weeks later. I rallied like Rocky. Rush alterations. New cuff links. A crisp Marcella shirt. Polished black shoes. I went from disheveled schlub to black-tie stud.

TAG Heuer just brought back its best Japanese racing collab
Watch, Dial, Logo

TAG Heuer just announced the second Carrera collaboration with Team Ikuzawa and Bamford Watch Department, three years after their first one together — and this time, they went back to a stopwatch.

The watch is built on TAG Heuer’s 39mm Carrera Glassbox, the modern take on the original 1963 Carrera that swaps a bezel for a highly domed sapphire crystal. But the design here pulls specifically from the Heuer Roadmaster, a vintage timing stopwatch Team Ikuzawa used trackside through the ’70s and ’80s, not from any particular car or race.

Gearheads and luxury car enthusiasts will be descending on Florida on February 19th through the 21st as the Cavallino Classic looks to return to Southern Florida for another edition. A collection of some of the most iconic Ferraris from every era is expected to be on display for the three-day event meant to showcase a century of craftsmanship and artistry. Even better, the event has a little extra throttle this year as it celebrates the brand’s 80th anniversary.

We measure our programming by whether it gives Club members and resort guests something they cannot find anywhere else. Cavallino Classic does that. It is not only for collectors and enthusiasts. It is for anyone who appreciates rare craftsmanship and a weekend built around it – Daniel Hostettler, President & CEO of The Boca Raton
