We all have seen the commercials of the grandfather giving the grandson Werther’s Original and both of them eating the caramel candy with joy. We may have even experienced the same enjoyment. Ever since, millennials have branded the candy as the candy of our fathers and grandfathers. The truth is, we all love the candy, and we’re unashamed by it. Now, we can show our love for the fan-favorite caramel by entering a contest to win a pair of one-of-a-kind jeans featuring 30 pockets, each of which is the perfect size to hold one tasty treat. The contest celebrates National Caramel Month (we didn’t know it was a thing either). 200 lucky winners can walk around with the sweetest pair of jeans on the street.

“The inspiration for these exclusive jeans came from the age-old question: what are these tiny pockets in jeans used for?” said Kelly Cook, president of Storck, North America. “The answer has always been right in front of us—Werther’s Original caramels. Our caramels are the perfect size and don’t melt, making them the ideal fit for these tiny pockets.”

Bonobos is teaming with Toys ‘R’ Us to give us the feels
Geoffrey can now go anywhere with us
Geoffrey Bonobos Collab

2019 brought us 90s kids some of the most devastating news when we found out we were losing someone so significant to our childhoods. We all remembered walking through the malls and turning the corner to see the paradise of toys calling to us, busting out of the storefront like it was begging us to take something home. There were too many toys to contain in any Toys 'R' Us store, so we only did our part to help if we took one home. Whether you liked Nerf guns, GI Joes, Matchbox Cars, superheroes, or board games, there was an entire aisle for you. Then we heard the stores were closing. The ad campaigns showing our beloved Geoffrey walking away with a suitcase claiming all the children have grown up (a play on their iconic jingle) tore at our heartstrings. Then, in 2021, Toys 'R' Us returned (kind of) with an all-online presence. Now, they are coming back in force with the opening of flagship stores and a new collaboration with one of our favorite menswear brands, Bonobos.
We're all kids

"I don't want to grow up; I want to be a Toys 'R' Us kid." This was the jingle we grew up with, but we didn't let it hit home until we Millenials reached our thirties. When we became adults and started to look back on those years in the malls, we realized we truly wished we could still be Toys 'R' Us kids. Now that we have Geoffrey back, we can take him with us in a collection of shirts and hats from Bonobos featuring his likeness. There are sizes for you and your little one, so you can turn them into a Toys 'R' Us kid, but that isn't required. You can be your own Toys 'R' Us kid with a sweater and a hat, taking Geoffrey with you everywhere you go. Regardless of what the market does, you can constantly be reminded that age is just a number, and you can always be that child you used to be.

Wax London takes Scottish inspiration for AW24
Overshirts and corduroy take center stage

Inspiration can come from anywhere. A book, a movie, a song, all things that can spark our creative engines and get us to turn out the best we have inside us. Designers have to find ways to escape the noise of the industry to find inspiration in everything around them. For Wax London, that was what they did. On a trip to Scotland, they found themselves surrounded by the serene beauty of the country and developed their autumn and winter collection for 2024, titled appropriately enough, "Escape the Noise." Of course, any collection that Wax London does now has to include an evolution of the new icon for the brand, the Whiting overshirt. And this season has already gotten a boost thanks to Bradley Cooper, who wore it for an outing in NYC. But that isn't all this new collection has going for it.
Fit for an autumn in the Scottish Highlands

The new Wax London collection features a bevy of specialty overshirts, including the classic windowpane check and the latest season stepney all in a darker nighttime color palette of blacks, navy, and whites. They also add to their repertoire with the Otto, similar to the Whiting, only with side entry pockets. One of the collection's standouts this season is the use of corduroy. Not only do they offer it in blazers and trousers, the perfect fall fabric for exploring Scotland's most beautiful countryside, but they also feature embroidered shirts in a stunning pin-cord texture.

Bradley Cooper worked his way into our hearts in the early 2000s alongside Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, and others in The Hangover. He then spent the next two decades dropping Oscar performance after Oscar performance until he landed the role of Rocket Raccoon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That means we pay attention to him. Now, he is one of the guys we ordinary folk follow to stay up on the trends. While he has been the centerpiece of a lot of hair content from all the men's style writers (guilty as charged, Your Honor), he has also taught many of us the subtle art of the leather jacket and, recently, the even subtler art of casual streetwear. We are paying attention again as he steps out in New York City wearing this gorgeous overshirt from Wax London.
