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.

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

Suede, Boots, Footwear

Denim and boots have been part of the working-man’s closet for a century — but sometimes, even the most rough-and-tumble outdoorsman wants a flex piece. Enter: the new drop from Red Wing, in a phenomenal shade of blue.

The Minnesota brand released the 8809 Classic Moc this week in a new Tidal Blue Muleskinner leather, a deep indigo developed exclusively at Red Wing’s own S.B. Foot Tanning Company. It’s a limited-edition run on one of the most recognizable silhouettes in American footwear.

Watch, Hand, Shaker

Timex and Todd Snyder just released the Marlin Mesh, the latest entry in one of menswear’s longest-running watch collaborations.

The Marlin itself is a genuine vintage design, pulled from Timex’s 1960s archive. Snyder and Timex first revived it back in 2016 as a Todd Snyder exclusive, and it was something bigger than just a new watch — it was Timex’s first step back into mechanical movements after years of quartz-only releases.
