In terms of shoulder seasons, mid-March is about as in-between as things get. Meaning, it’s a great time to reach for a brushed cotton sweater vest by Our Legacy, lightweight wool trousers from Luca Faloni and a convertible parka made by Todd Snyder. Looking ahead, the weather will soon be ideal for a pair of madras slippers produced by J. Press and Stubbs & Wootton, or even some tastefully tailored shorts from Private White V.C. As we were saying…

Saturdays NYC Mott Quarter Zip
Image Credit: Saturdays NYC Saturdays has liberated the quarter zip from bland middle-management territory by virtue of a heavyweight cotton terry cloth, a convertible mid-height collar and vintage athletic details including ribbed cuffs and hem. The result? Something that the best-dressed gym teacher in America might have in their closet.

Drake’s Rocky Mountain Featherbed Nylon Leather Mountain Parka
Image Credit: Drake's This made-in-Japan recreation of a sporty ‘70s icon is cut from water-resistant nylon and features a Western-style leather yoke.

Our Legacy V-Neck Brushed-Cotton Sweater Vest

Billy Reid Savoy Work Shirt
Image Credit: Billy Reid Supple goat suede, spade-shaped pockets and antique brass hardware betray the fact that this Billy Reid work shirt isn’t really for working—but we’ll give it a pass. After all, we all need a high-low layering piece to reach for when a first date or weeknight dinner with friends calls.

Loro Piana Wind Baseball Cap with Logo

Buck Mason Japanese Cotton Sateen Field Shirt
Image Credit: Buck Mason Most military-style field shirts stick to the predictable olive drab, but Buck Mason has leaned theirs a bit of downtown appeal thanks to a black cotton sateen fabric. Over a navy crewneck shirt and dark denim, it’ll easily elevate your go-to basics.

Todd Snyder Italian 3-1 Parka Shell
Image Credit: Todd Snyder This military-inspired parka from Todd Snyder has a choose-your-own-adventure touch. It can be worn on its own as a shell or combined with a sold-separately nylon liner (which can itself be worn individually) as a more heavy-duty piece of outerwear.

Turnbull & Asser Linen Safari Byron Jacket

Private White V.C. The Maker’s Short
Image Credit: Private White V.C. Here’s your seasonal reminder that baggy cargo shorts remain verboten. In their stead, consider this workwear-inspired pair from Private White V.C. with oversized patch pockets that serve the same functional purpose without the fratty connotations.
