Men’s Beach Outfits: 21 Surefire Ways to Dress for the Beach

Why make it more complicated than it needs to be? Trunks, a towel, some suntan lotion, and it’s the Rockaways all day, baby. But are you really gonna pass up the opportunity to flex just a little? If not the guns, then at least that untouchable on-sand style? If your beach look could use a tune up this summer, look no further than the likes of Sean Connery—who goes no shirt, no shoes, and has zero problems—or John F. Kennedy Jr., who stuffs a pack of cigs into the short shorts, throws on a tooth necklace, and confidently strides in the direction we’ll all soon be headed.

Redefine Yourself With Chevignon’s New Jackets and Denim

[Partner] Nothing feels quite as good as a wardrobe refresh. Whether you’re changing the guards, or adding to the repertoire, French label Chevignon just dropped a hefty lineup of brand new go-for-broke bombers, timeless truckers, leather blousons, and a deep selection of denim jeans. The pieces build on what the brand has been acing since 1979: remixing American style with French influences for the urban explorer looking to push boundaries. This drop specifically pays tribute to the brand’s denim line, which has long stood for quality, individuality, and authenticity. The question is, what do you stand for?

French Restaurants Are in Vogue

The worlds of fashion and food have long been bedfellows. “Fashion folks have been ambassadors for particular restaurants over the decades, driving business with every paparazzi photo,” says Eater. “Café de Flore, an 1880s cafe that’s among the city’s most iconic, became a stomping ground in the ’60s for Karl Lagerfeld and Yves Saint Laurent’s coterie.” Only now, establishments like Halo in Paris are upgrading the relationship by putting designer storefronts inside of restaurants, giving clothes horses a place to shop while they eat—or is it the other way around?

Why Have T-Shirts Gotten So Heavy?

Unwittingly, Jeremy Allen White became the poster child for the heavy tee when he wore one as Carmy on kitchen drama The Bear. The more than eight-ounce fabric looked so good under a blue apron that many went into a full-on tizzy trying to figure out the brand of the thick cotton loopwheeled tee, all to get the look themselves. What we all learned about a tee with some heft was something menswear fanatics have known all along: “It drapes right off the shoulders. It’s not super stretchy. It doesn’t cling to you in weird ways,” Albert Muzquiz, an influencer, tells the Washington Post. Now, it seems, the secret’s out.

Noah and Timex Dropped an Heirloom-Grade $200 Watch

If you love the Cartier Tank but don’t especially like how much you’d have to shell out for one (some used cars cost less), listen up. Noah and Timex just released a similar profile that originally asked a couple hundo. The new Sun and Moon watch—named for its lunar phase window—offers more than just a heavy discount on the Old Money aesthetic, says Noah founder Brendon Babenzien. “What gives real value to a timepiece is where it’s been and what the wearer has experienced. The beauty of this model is that it’s hardy enough for everyday wear.” Many are already seeing the value.
