I’m in love with this photo by Tommy Ton of Jenny Walton in Milan. I’m not sure if it’s possible to sophisticate workwear, but Jenny appears to have done just that. As I often feel, this illustration doesn’t do the photo or the subject justice.



A new favorite photographer of mine is Emily Maye. She captures sport in the most incredible way, with all its glory and pain. Tracksmith – a running apparel brand based in Wellesley, MA – tapped her to shoot their latest collection, which is modeled by amateur runners out on the road and trail.



Lauren Yates of Ponytail Journal has the rare ability to wear very “salty” menswear and look smashing doing it. Here she proves that layering prints really is the way to go with a Battenwear top and hat, and Onion fabric as a backdrop.



I illustrate a lot of images from Private White V.C. because, to me, their collections are timeless and perfect. I love how this shot of their Ventile Harrington jacket, taken at the Northern coast of Wales feels fresh while still giving a nod to classic British menswear. I’m also reminded of the young men from Charriots of Fire for some reason when I look at this photo – maybe it’s the model’s hair. That’s a good thing, by the way.



Rancourt & Co. was founded in Maine in 1967 and is still family owned and operated. They make some of the most beautiful leather shoes – from driving mocs to court sneakers. And all of their footwear is handmade by folks like Armand here, who’s been crafting shoes for 45 years. “I’ve always believed, and I came up with this quote,” says Armand, “quality isn’t an issue, quality is a commitment.”
