Tod's Windbreaker
Not your average windbreaker, this Tod's windbreaker has a stylish edge thanks to its higher collar. That being said, it's still got the high-tech finishes of a classic performancewear windbreaker, such as an anti-drip finishing, welt pockets and elastic cuffs.

Church's Pembrey 2.0 loafers

Brioni Beige Sea Island piqué cotton polo
A classic cut polo shirt, Brioni's Sea Island piqué will elevate any outfit. Sea Island is one of the finest and most sought-after cottons in the world - it is grown in limited quantities in the Caribbean and is renowned for its long staple fibres, which allow for a more resilient yarn.
MR MARVIS Wimbledons T-shirt
After a white T-shirt that does the job of looking James Dean cool, but won't shrink in the wash and lose its brightness? MR MARVIS has got you covered.
Drake's Sand Cotton Button-Through Knit
Drake's has created the answer to transitional dressing. This button-through knit is crafted in Italy from pima cotton crepe, and is lightweight, breathable, and ideal for layering as we transition from summer to autumn.
A Day's March Abu Striped Linen Shirt

Sirplus has collaborated with Tanner Bates, the British brand making leather belts in its workshop in Devon. This Dartington belt is made from 3.5mm thick naturally tanned Italian leather and is designed to last you a lifetime.
Mr P Linen Shirt Jacket
More than a shirt, but lightweight enough to sit adjacent to one, Mr P.'s shirt jacket is made from airy linen dyed a sunny light-yellow. It's finished with an elasticated hem that's a little longer at the back, and will add a pop of colour to a neutrally-toned wardrobe with ease.

Finding a pair of timeless, easy-to-wear sunglasses can be a task. That being said, Finlay's dropped a pair that effortlessly tick all the boxes.

DAKS x John Smedley polo shirt
Two British brands have come together to create a timeless polo shirt. It features the DAKS' House Check in an innovative all-over textured knit, and is crafted from highly sought-after John Smedley’s Sea Island Cotton.
LESTRANGE The Hydrowool Bomber Jacket
This could well be the Platonic ideal of a spring jacket. Cult menswear brand LESTRANGE has taken the essence of a men’s wardrobe staple – a hero item that’s beloved for its classic, organic lines and timeless feel – and has elevated it with a strong emphasis on utility. The shell is made from merino wool, which minimises creasing, is flexible and has a premium feel – and, perhaps most impressive of all, it comprises a breathable ‘fabric membrane’ that is both windproof and waterproof, making it an essential piece for the UK’s ever-changing weather. We also appreciate the fully lined sleeves, which dial up the wearability, and the tailored fit and pared-down appearance make sure it doesn’t look like a technical piece. It’s best worn with neutral trousers and unembellished sneakers and is also appropriate for year-round wear.
LESTRANGE The 360° Blazer
Dressing for travel has long been a pain point for the modern professional – you want something that’s smart enough for business, comfortable for the trip, and is almost immune to creasing so that you can move from arrivals to your meeting without needing to head to the hotel to iron your ensemble. The 360° Blazer, courtesy of LESTRANGE, makes a strong claim to being the ultimate piece for those on-the-move. It has the elegant, evergreen appeal of a traditional navy blazer, but this take has been elevated and modernised with a technical fabric that’s tough to wrinkle and is resistant to water. Moreover, it’s unstructured and has a four-way stretch, allowing for ease of movement throughout the journey. In terms of aesthetics, the patch pockets give it a contemporary look, meaning it can work with casual pieces (plain T-shirts and chinos) as well as dressier ones (Oxford shirts and tailored trousers).
Émigré Garment Organiser
This might well be the ultimate travel-wardrobe workhorse. Émigré – the brand kitting out the modern professional – streamlines the packing process with this sleek, pared-back and purely practical Garment Organiser. Measuring slightly bigger than a standard portfolio, it unzips into two main compartments: one half is intended for shirts (a removable plate provides extra support and doubles up as a folding board); the other features two small zippered mesh pockets for socks and underwear, and a larger zippered section for a pair of trousers. Perhaps most nifty of all is the external pocket in which you can place worn items. It’s ideal for business trips that last 1–3 days.
Tracksmith Session Tee
This new T-shirt from Tracksmith has versatility in mind. In terms of aesthetics, it comes in a range of universally appealing, timeless colourways (we rather like the royal, navy and ivory options). The design is also completely stripped back, ensuring that the piece is wearable in many scenarios. Then, in terms of functionality, it’s crafted from a lightweight, moisture-wicking and antimicrobial stretch knit, meaning it can take you from gentle Sunday runs to longer distances. Because it has a relaxed fit, and because of its breathability, we also like to wear it when travelling for work.
Gant 240 Mulberry Street jumper
Channel Ivy League prep in one of Gant's new cable knit jumpers from its premium 240 Mulberry Street line.
Belstaff Centenary jacket
To celebrate Belstaff's centenary, the British brand has introduced the 'Our First 100 Years' capsule. The Centenary field jacket has modular functionality, as the Centenary Quilt jacket can be zipped into it for extra warmth (sold separately), and it is made from the signature Belstaff dry wax cotton with hexagonal ripstop construction.
Sunspel bespoke T-shirt
A bespoke T-shirt offer has been a long-standing request from Sunspel customers, and a new in-store service is now an extension of something the brand have been doing on a special basis for years. Customers can visit the store and basically create their own tee, choosing from a variety of fabrics, including the classic Supima Superfine, midweight, heavyweight, Sea Island, and Silk Cotton. You can select different body and arm lengths, neck finishes, and add pockets to create the perfect fit tee.
Belstaff x Grenson boots
Part of a collaboration between iconic British footwear brand Grenson and equally as iconic label Belstaff, each pair of these boots is Goodyear welted, with a full leather insole and a reinforced base. Proper British stuff.
Fendi "Mad" bag
This new Peekaboo bag resulted from a conversation between Silvia Venturini Fendi and the international architecture firm “MAD”, known for its futuristic and technologically innovative vision in tune with the environment and humanity.
Paul Smith cycling jersey
Over the course of its six-decade history, Paul Smith has kept close connections to the world of cycling, owing to its founders obsession with the sport. Now the British label has launched a huge collection of its own gear, which comprises everything from helmets and gloves to this branded cycling jersey.
