Okay, hands up: we’re biased. But it’s no exaggeration to say that British menswear has been a standard-bearer in men’s fashion for centuries. Its influence is everywhere, from the way clothes are made to how they look and what they’re worn with. For serious suiting, the well-heeled make the...

Your twenties are about discovering who you are, or working out who you want to be. But in your thirties, you can very quickly rack up more separate identities than a millennial ‘slashie’. Career-man-slash-husband-slash-father. Somehow you have to blend them all into one coherent wardrobe while at the same...

Shoes are dangerous, financially speaking. Watches are expensive, sure, but it’s shoes that’ll do real damage to your wallet. Buy the wrong the pair, or the right pair in the wrong colour, and you can wave goodbye to hundreds if not thousands of pounds worth of tailoring. After all,...

How do you define cocktail attire? Like many of the puzzling dress codes that crop up on fancy invitations now and again, the barometers are not immediately clear – at least, that is, for men. This is one of the (very) few occasions in life when women have it...

Your twenties – or the early ones at least – are the “wonder years”. You wonder how you’re ever going to pay off these tuition fees. Why people voluntarily choose to get married and have children. Why you drunk so many Jagerbombs last night. You also wonder what to...

Statement jackets and the latest sneakers are always going to be top of men’s lust lists, but don’t let high-wattage clobber blind you to the essentials. The right type of pants for men can be the most quietly powerful item you wear, but get it wrong and you’ll instantly...
