It is that time of year again. The summer is gone. Fall has made its way to most of the country. Apple picking, Halloween decorations, spooky movies, and of course, a rewatch of Gilmore Girls. Not sure why Gilmore Girls is a must watch around this time of the year? Maybe it is because there is something about the autumn feelings that makes us long for Stars Hollow. In any case, the weather has turned and in the last few months of the season, holiday guides are starting to land. Tom Beckbe, a relative newcomer on the scene, dropped their new fall collection, and it is stocked full of classic American outdoors looks that demand we drop the remote and get outside as soon as possible.

Your inner American James Bond

Does this brand have anything to do with James Bond? No. But when we look through the new drops from them, we can’t help but be reminded of the iconic James Bond look from Skyfall that taught us all about the importance of layering. You can almost completely recreate this look with the pieces from Tom Beckbe.

Founded in 2015 by Radcliff Menge, Tom Beckbe took shape from his inspiration from the Southern outdoors and the way he could disappear into the wilderness with his grandfather to learn how to hunt and fish. Starting with their first and most iconic piece, the waxed Tenshaw Jacket, the brand is setting up to be a long staple in the industry with a focus on quality and on functionality. Whether you are wanting to recreate a James Bond look or visit Stars Hollow.

Wax London keeps you stylish even at home
English-based brand debuts first loungewear
Wax London Loungewear top

We love the opportunity to get out into the world and experience all it offers. We love seeing new things, trying new things, and learning new things. And, then, there are some days when we would instead order the most unhealthy things we can find on Uber Eats, turn on a comfort show on Netflix, and get reacquainted with our favorite show. Having a lazy day is an underrated luxury we love to experience, but that doesn't mean we must sacrifice style. Sure, we can just lay around in dirty sweats and be completely useless all day. Or we can still find ways to capture our style and feel good about ourselves even at home. That is where Wax London comes in with the launch of their newest project.
The release of their debut loungewear

Wax London is particularly known for its stylish overshirts, which keep you effortlessly warm (and cool at the same time) on your outings. They are loved by celebrities like Bradley Cooper and are top-notch in the overshirt category. So, it is no surprise they branched out to cover the indoor need for effortless warmth and style. The new collection gives us the Ripley Shirt and Hutton Trousers, each in four designs in matching sets. The patterns offered are striking black paisley as the most unique and three more classic loungewear looks in a wide stripe, a royal stewart plaid, and a dark solid. Each of these offers comfort and style to your day at home.

Y.Chroma heated up NYC Fashion Week with debut outerwear collection
Menswear statement maker will now keep you warm and stylish
Y.Chroma Mazarin Jacket

Y.Chroma is a brand that specializes in helping men find their voice. While society tells us to sit down and be silent, Y.Chroma believes we should stand up and speak up. Ditching the blues and grays of our usual subtle wardrobe for something with more personality is part of the process the company lives by. Now, the company is looking to keep it going even as the temperature drops by launching its first-ever outerwear collection.

“Outerwear is the final layer that completes a man’s wardrobe,” said Founder and Creative Director Max Israel. “It’s the most visible piece but also the one that carries the most adventure and versatility. Our goal is to merge that adventurous spirit with the quality our customers expect from Y.Chroma. Showing this collection for the first time at New York Fashion Week was an incredible opportunity to showcase that vision on a global stage.”

NOBULL prepares you for the elements with new collection
CrossFit brand develops weather resistant collection
nobull allday elements

CrossFit is a fitness trend that has swept through the nation and caused massive levels of debate and weight loss. Whether you are a believer in the benefits of CrossFit or someone who believes it is a sham, there is no arguing that there are people who have turned their entire lives around to become the fittest they have ever been by dedicating themselves (sometimes accused of being obsessed or fanatical about it) to the functional-based fitness routine. One of the brands that emerged from the rising fitness focus is NOBULL. While they were most well-known for their shoes explicitly made to handle the specific movements of a CrossFit workout, they grew into a full-fledged fitness brand and are one of the names you see all over the gyms, websites, and even the CrossFit games. Now, the NOBULL Allday Elements line takes the workout regimen to a new location.
Getting CrossFit outside

One aspect of CrossFit that has been there since the beginning is that the circuit-based regimen is primarily done indoors. While that makes it easy to do the weight work and the rope climbs, getting CrossFit outside may be the next significant evolution of the particular brand of fitness. NOBULL is preparing its ranks for that eventuality with NOBULL Allday Elements, a new line featuring durable materials for comfort and cooler weather with water-repellant technology. CrossFit never had to worry about the rain while doing the exercises inside, but now they have the ability to get outside and create all new reasons to love the sport and the brand.
