This year, we went through the trends we're seeing, specific pieces we're into, trends we're avoiding, and everything in between. Put on your barn coat over your cropped tee and settle in.

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.
