Now, not all of the styles seen below seem to be available for pre-order just yet, but there’s a few other pieces in the pre-order that didn’t appear in the spring lookbook…
In some parts of the hemisphere, there are piles of parking lot snow that won’t melt for three months. But that’s not stopping spring lines from coming out… single digits be damned. Suitsupply is about to release their official lookbook images for Spring 2014 (you might remember their super-early museum preview over the summer), and while the goods won’t be available for a bit, here’s an advanced preview of what one of the biggest up and coming brands in Men’s Style is working on for the spring. Some from-the-hip reaction is below. Add yours in the comments.
Starting off nice and basic. Lots of colors and texture. Looks like Suitsupply is going with shorter, say, 7″ (?) inseams on their shorts. That double breasted coat is gonna stand out, especially if it’s a lighter spring-weight fabric like a cotton/linen blend.
And it gets wild quick. Orange & blue checked, double breasted, peak lapel… waistcoat.
Suitsupply isn’t afraid of taking risks.
A fishstick yellow rain coat, what looks to be an olive chino suit, and a hyper prep outfit. And loafers. Lots and lots of loafers.
Whoa. That jacket. Subdued shades on big pattern blazer perfect for the Derby or a summer dinner party. A jacket like that works plenty fine with just a light blue shirt & lightweight slacks. Lots of pattern mixing here though, and again, loafers.
Suitsupply loves them some big lapels, and that seems to continue to be the case this spring.Two double breasted suits and a ticket-pocket equipped Washington Fit (?) blazer. More loafers.
Another double breasted waist coat with some color. This time, it’s a mint-based gingham. Lots of patterns and texture here, especially with the woven belt thrown in. Big fan of that linen jacket.
Your turn guys. You liking what you’re seeing? Any more observations from you? What caught your eye? Would you ever wear one of those DB waist coats? Leave it all in the comments.
Plus a restock (no sale) of a favorite USA assembled dive watch.
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.
