Every single day, our style team filters through millions upon millions of style articles, clothing pieces, collection launches, brand parties, blogger fads, runway shows, fashion shoots, lookbooks and many, many more stimuli to stay on top of what’s hot in men’s fashion. In spite of all that noise, we’ll keep things simple here: just four things we’re into right now, updated each week.

Montblanc TimeWalker Chronograph UTC

Five grand will buy you plenty of chronographs, but few of them come with an added GMT hand. The Chronograph UTC, then, is a great option for weekend warriors with a penchant for travel. Further, all-black watches have been having something of a moment, and the stealthy look (especially thanks to its red accents) calls to mind the glory days of racing. Perfect, then, for those summer weekends spent behind the wheel.

Golden Bear Poplin Bomber Jacket

This classic poplin bomber from San Francisco’s Golden Bear may be one of the best lightweight jackets for summer. It’s timeless, durable and comfortable — a power trio of versatility. Throw it on for a cool morning commute and keep it around for those weekend drives up to the lake.

Barton Perreira Lafayette Sunglasses

Made in Japan, these aviator-style sunglasses are made from tortoiseshell acetate with burnished gold-tone trims. The dark green lenses offer 100 percent UV protection and add to the overall vintage aesthetic. Their silhouette will fit most face shapes, making them a strong contender for your daily summer frame.

Tod’s City Gommino Loafers

Tod’s makes some of the best driving loafers around. Just look at the Gommino Loafers; their style is minimal and unadorned, letting the craftsmanship and beautiful leather shine. The signature studded leather soles provide great traction whether you’re out on the town or taking a classic convertible for a jaunt up the coast.
