Forget boxers vs briefs. There appears to be a serious rift amongst the male denim wearing community when it comes to how they choose to close their barn door. Here’s the argument for each:
The case for Zipper Fly: It’s the evolution of fasteners. Why live in the past? A zip fly is easy to use, quickly re-fastens, and doesn’t add any extra weight to the jeans. They also won’t come undone on their own unlike a button or two on a button fly.
The case for Button Fly: If it’s about fastener evolution, wouldn’t we all be wearing velcro fly jeans by now? Sounds sexy. The button fly offers one handed undoing operation (zippers require you to hold the waist band as you unzip). Button fly jeans feel less flimsy. There’s no risk of injury… i.e. There’s Something About Mary

It's nice when a brand warns their customers in advance of raising their prices.
Spring ready sneakers, grooming goods, watches, etc. Saddle up. Amazon's spring sale is on.
New sportcoats. Italian desert boots. J. Crew dips their promo-toes into spring.
From de-scaling irons to shining shoes to smelling coat pits. Let's clean up our act.
New Seikos are on sale, and J. Crew's Suit event is expiring soon.
The two Bs go head to head, collar to collar, and lapel to lapel.
