You feel that? Apparently the menswear vibes are shifting in ways you wouldn’t expect. From fashion houses to trickle-down style, we discuss whether or not the vibes are actually shifting or not. We also talk about the rise in wine bars as places to hang out more casually, $910 fleeces, our respective Austin City Limits music festival experiences, clarified cocktails, Moo Deng Girl, Strega Nona Fall, and more.

After two very targeted episodes, this week was much more of a grab bag — Daniel Craig's fit for the Loewe show, bag and shoe charms, GQ trying to cancel Gorpcore, Sydney Sweeney's abomination of an ad deal, kitchen upgrades and aesthetic appliances, Sally Rooney's "Intermezzo" as a status symbol, Divorced Wife-core, Nike news, and some footy collabs. Of course, we finished everything out by adding some items to our personal wishlists.

Today, we started off with some luggage talk and future schedule through August. But in the bulk today's episode, we answer even more listener questions: how much we take trends into consideration when getting dressed, help for dad's trying to dress relevant, watch recommendations for someone starting their career, taking the dive into expensive watches, alternatives for Sambas aka Rishis, trends to keep an eye on as we approach fall, and more.
We also talk went through some articles of interest pertaining to Barry Keoghan's Manchester United campaign, going "Monk Mode," the rise of cassette tapes, and the new Anthony Bourdain biopic. And, of course, we added to our wishlists.
