Getting First Shot at FSC’s New Custom Suit

Freemans

We spend a good deal of time gushing over brightly colored pants and double-breasted blazers, but there’s something to be said for having a good knock-around suit at your disposal.

It’s the workhorse in any modern man’s closet and worth investing a little extra in.

A prime example: the latest custom offering from the neo-rustic Americana-philes at Freemans Sporting Club—exclusively on presale through our friends at UrbanDaddy Perks.

The gents at Freemans spent nearly a year perfecting this 7 oz tropical wool American-made suit in the requisite shade of charcoal gray—and it’s got all the bells and whistles you’d expect, including a fully canvassed jacket. Since it’s a custom deal, you’ll have to be in NYC to meet with FSC’s on-premises master tailor in their bespoke studio… hidden behind an upstairs bookshelf in their eponymous restaurant.

Which will play out a lot like this slick video they’ve put together of the process.»

Your Spring Cashmere Hookup

Fischer

Consider this a last-minute addition to yesterday’s spring must-haves: fine-gauge cashmere.

And right on time, our comrades in style over at UrbanDaddy Perks are knocking 25% off a fine selection of spring-ready cashmere sweaters, cardigans and one exceptionally cozy-looking speckled henley from Christopher Fischer—an expert on balancing the yarn’s buttery-soft gauziness with just enough warmth retention perfect for the typical “summer in the light and winter in the shade” March day.

Clearly Dickens was pining for some cashmere while writing that line.

Italian Shoes by Way of Nashville

Nappi

Indulge us for a moment here and imagine if two of menswear’s favorite pastimes—Americana and Italian craftsmanship—were turned into a shoe…

Chances are they’d look a lot like the boots from Peter Nappi—which just so happen to be going for 20% to 40% under retail right now on UrbanDaddy Perks.

Leather artisan Phillip Nappi traces his roots back to a grandfather who made shoes in Italy (the namesake of the company), and nowadays Nappi the Younger makes some hardwearing boots meticulously crafted from Tuscan leather from his leather studio based in the heart of Honky-Tonk. Our favorite of the bunch is the Romeo, constructed of a single, continuous piece of leather stretched over a last that’s supposed to fit so well, you could go without the laces. Which puts them somewhere between your favorite pair of oxfords and loafers.

Not a bad place to be—especially for your feet.

The Untold Charm of a Vintage Dress Watch

Jaeger-LeCoultre

A lot of the vintage-watch chatter tends to focus on the Rolexes and Omegas of the world—and their divers in particular—but there’s plenty more wrist candy out there to be had.

Case in point: this 1950s Jaeger-LeCoultre dress watch.

And instead of having to hunt one down, our pals over at UrbanDaddy Perks have teamed up with the watch aficionados at Analog/Shift to get you the inside track on this watch and a small cache of other heirloom-worthy timepieces. When we asked which one of the bunch was their favorite, A/S immediately pointed us in the direction of this LeCoultre, noting that it’s got an understated case with a slim profile and a reliable movement that’s easily serviceable. The sweeping seconds register is a nice addition, plus it’s priced to move.

Time is of the essence.

The Lion’s Share at Lyonstate

We’ve just got word that Alabama menswear shop Lyonstate is taking all of the handsomeness they’ve already got on their web shop, putting it on sale, and then slashing off an additional 25% (with the secret code “TAKE25”). Which puts some of these prices at the lowest we’ve seen for stuff from brands like Our Legacy (like this double-breasted blazer), Rachel Comey (like these oxford shoes) or Oliver Spencer (this fisher jacket, for instance) go for. There’s plenty more where that came from, so get after it, gentlemen.

In the totally warranted expectation that you’ll be showered with gifts this holiday season, you should be prepared to send some very thoughtful, handwritten thank-yous.

Whether it’s an obscenely gesticulating Santa or a simple “WTF,” your gifters will surely appreciate the equal amount of thoughtfulness from you.

Get Kent

A few months back, we tipped you off to Kent Wang (he of cutaway-collared-polo-shirt Internet fame) opening a full online haberdashery—which was great news for handsomeness everywhere.

Now we’ve got even better news: our friends at UrbanDaddy Perks have just launched an exclusive with Kent Wang that will turn your $100 into $150 worth of buying power at his shop—nothing to scoff at with his reasonably priced wares. We’re talking a quintessential polo and a grenadine tie. Or deerskin gloves, a silk pocket square and mother-of-pearl cufflinks. Or halfway to his minimalist watch.

The possibilities are endless.

You Have 72 Hours Left to Get This Custom Tweed Jacket

If you’ve ever felt the urge to wrap yourself in the feeling of a fall hunting trip in rural Maine, here it is: a custom tweed jacket from Rifle Quality—and it’s 35% off till Monday, courtesy of our friends at UrbanDaddy Perks.

If you’re not familiar, Rifle Quality is a troupe of Savile Row–trained tailors who split their time between NYC and Cleveland, making the sort of jackets that live up to the name—in other words, they’re sturdy enough for a weekend in the bogs. You’ll get your choice of six different swatches of British thornproof tweed, which gets cut and sewn by hand, with all the trappings of fine jacketry you’d expect: floating canvas construction, pocket room for extra shotgun rounds, the works.

Plus it’s equally as effective for hunting down a solid happy hour.
