Saturdays NYC

Sometimes the best brands can be right under your nose the whole time. For you, this might be New York-based Saturdays New York City which was founded by Morgan Collett, Colin Tunstall and Josh Rosen.

Since starting out under the name of Saturdays Surf NYC, back when it was founded in the early 2000s, the brand has evolved and changed. While once a brand with a strong dedication to the surf scene, Saturdays NYC is now a ready-to-wear label with a wide variety of apparel.

Despite the culling of the word ‘surf’, the sentiment around having clothes that encapsulate the feeling and attitude of the most exciting weekend day remains. Whether Saturday means a morning surf or breakfast out with friends, this brand is a must.

Personal favourites of ours, from the latest collection of new arrivals, are the Ryan Solid Flannel Workshirt and the Tony Nylon Taslan Jogger. Together, we just know you’ll have the effortlessly cool look down pat.

For a staple that you will need year after year, you can’t look any further than the bold green Enomoto Puffer Jacket. Tough enough for the cold of NYC, it’ll be cosy perfection for anywhere you go.

Orlebar Brown

Every wardrobe needs some go-to vacation looks, and this is where Orlebar Brown comes in. Exuding vacay energy, the brand is your one-stop shop for all things effortless and laid back.

Founded in 2007 by Adam Brown, the brand now operates under Chanel and continues to be a pioneer of resort-style. Orlebar Brown’s original intention for every product to be developed with a better holiday in mind also remains intact.

The standout product for the British clothing brand is that of the tailored swim shorts. Whoever thought tailoring only counted for more formal events has clearly been misguided. After wearing a pair of Orlebar Brown swim shorts we know you’ll be bypassing any others come your next summer getaway.

To help you also step into holiday mode are the Crochet Stripe Relaxed Fit Organic Cotton Shirt and the Embroidered Palm Classic Fit Washed Sweatshirt. Both of these are the perfect choice for balmy nights spent outside, under the stars and palm trees.

Arc’teryx

If outdoors is your shtick, then Arc’teryx should be your wardrobe’s shtick. Made with high performance in mind, it is a brand that puts the luxury-minded man and the adventure-first man in the same room.

Before a re-branding in 1991, Arc’teryx was founded in 1989 under the name Rock Solid. Since then, it has been bought, sold, and re-bought by two different company groups.

Under its new, more luxurious-sounding name, the brand has continued to produce outerwear and climbing gear that has been tested on the harshest of conditions. It is the belief of the company that you can’t separate manufacturing from idea, or from location, and this is why the Coast Mountains is the product’s very own testing playground.

Already planning your next adventure? Don’t bypass stocking up on Arc’teryx’s new season’s collection. Top of our list is the Gamma Straight Leg Trousers and the Atom Hoody Hooded Jacket for a pop of colour.

Prepare to meet your most adventurous self yet.

Bode

You may have heard about the benefits of a minimalistic, capsule wardrobe, but don’t let it steer you away from some must-have Bode outfits.

Founded in 2016, this confidently bright and bold brand is everything that is right with vibrant dressing, and we can’t wait for you to get your hands on your very own pieces.

Bode’s unique look has often been coined the term “cottagecore”, meaning a style that encourages a more bucolic lifestyle. Its clothes are also characterised by a more vintage look with garments made from repurposed quilts, flowery fabrics, and crochet knits.

Near the top of our list, and soon to be yours, are the Wide-Leg Printed Woven Shorts, the Buttercup Camp-Collar Embroidered Cotton-Voile Shirt, and the Marigold Wreath Camp-Collar Embroidered Striped Cotton Shirt.

While, right at the top of the must-have list sits the Bode jackets. If the goal for your new 2024 look is to be bolder with your fashion, these jackets sure are a fun way to do it stylishly.
