You’re going to love our favorite gear from Western Rise, seriously. Western Rise is the rare brand that blends functionality, technical fabrics and classic, easygoing style. In short, the Western Rise menswear line is everything you need to go from town to trail, and then back again. You know, the type of gear you won’t be afraid to wear to the bar — or out on a hike. From outerwear to tough pants, Western Rise has something for the explorer in all of us (even if the most exploring you do is limited to a stroll through your local park).

AirLoft Quilted Jacket – $230

The AirLoft Quilted Jacket has, quite simply, a ton going on for it. Made with four-way stretch insulation and what the brand calls “continuous fiber technology,” this handsome, rugged shirt jacket features room for your everyday carry (thanks to front chest pockets), plus room to layer over your favorite henley (get yours here). Wear it on a day hike, then keep it handy for brews and bites afterward.

AirLight Western Shirt in Washed Denim – $109

Most denim shirts can feel a little too hefty — that’s not the case with the light-as-can-be AirLight Western Shirt. Featuring a blend of polyester and texturized nylon — the brand’s AirLight cloth — this shirt combines the traditional styling and hard-wearing appeal of a classic denim shirt, with the functionality and performance you need to head to the hills.

AT Slim Rivet Pant in Sandstone – $129

If you’ve layered up with a shirt jacket and a denim shirt from Western Rise, what are you wearing on your bottom half? That’s easy: the Slim Rivet Pant. The brand searched day and night for the right type of cut and construction to turn these five-pocket pants into an “anywhere, any time” pair. At first glance, they’ve succeeded. Yhat’s due in part to the use of water-repellent, stretch nylon canvas in a tailored-yet-not-tight fit. These pants are our Associate Editor’s new favorite for travel, and we know they’ll be yours too.

DryWeight Merino Henley in Clay – $98

Start off your next adventure-ready outfit the right way — with a breathable, performance-minded henley that’s equal parts style and substance. The brand blended TENCEL fabric with wool for a henley you’ll want to wear day in and day out. The best part is that it looks just as sharp with a denim jacket and leather boots for a day of city exploration as it does with a winter parka for a cold-weather hike.

Taylor Stitch proves that Made in America is still popular
International production may be popular but Made in America is selling out
Taylor Stitch Made in USA jacket

Many clothing brands make a decision at some point during the scale-up phase to ship manufacturing jobs overseas in an effort to increase their profits. That, in turn, increases the value of their stocks, and the growth just skyrockets from there. However, that means jobs go away and, in a lot of ways, means the quality suffers a little. That is why garments that are made in America just feel different. They feel stronger and more durable and let you take a feeling of pride in what you wear. That is why Taylor Stitch put together a collection of items Made in America that embody the spirit of home while making you look and feel great. But before you run over to the site and grab up all you can, you need to know one thing about the Taylor Stitch Made in America collection.
Items are flying off the shelves

The three most significant and most popular items in the collection are a collaboration with San Francisco legend Golden Bear Sportswear, the Golden Bear Snap Bomber, which balances vintage curb appeal with heirloom quality construction to earn its place as the go-to statement piece in your wardrobe. While it still has limited sizes available, the the Camp Pant in Rigid Indigo Sashiko and Mill Shirt Jacket in Rigid Indigo Sashiko are completely sold out. What does that tell us? Other than Taylor Stitch makes excellent quality homemade products, the people love them. We will keep our eye on those in hopes that they come back. Partly for you and partly because we want to get our hands on them as well.

thisisneverthat, Dr. Martens drop two workwear boots you absolutely need
Dr. Martens releases new collaboration
models starting at dr martens in midair

Although Dr. Martens has built its legacy as a go-to for boots, it’s hardly been considered rugged material- until now. With their latest collaboration with thisisneverthat, Dr. Martens is taking its classic styles and giving it a tough upgrade. Donning a new look each, these are far from the fresh and sleek new boots you’ve grown accustomed to. These new workwear boots are made to be worn out, give your footwear a unique story, and maximize use. Using iconic details from both brands, the latest workwear boots will add style to your everyday looks.

Banana Republic taps The White Lotus star for SS25 campaign
Nicholas Duvernay is a model for the first time
Banana Republic

Banana Republic is a staple in accessible fashion. It isn't a brand that lives only on the runways where everyday people feel disconnected, and it is more elevated than the run-of-the-mill selections those men who care little for style and standards prefer. It carved a place for itself in the middle, accessible for all and loved by most. With their launch of the spring and summer line, they tapped the star of The White Lotus, Nicholas Duvernay, to model the new pieces, and even though he had never done it before, he looked like a natural.

"Banana Republic’s pieces are timeless, blending the brand’s heritage with modern styles," says Nicholas Duvernay. "The craftsmanship and quality fabrics make them as comfortable as they are elevated—perfect for a night in the city or a weekend getaway. Shooting this campaign was an incredible experience, celebrating style, quality, and the spirit of exploration that defines Banana Republic."
