Do you like the way it feels to handle + wear?
Test “range of motion.” Everyday movement matters in these meat suits.
The way the fabric naturally falls/moves.
Too much? Too tight?
Needs to last. I don’t like shopping, I don’t like laundry.
Do you look like you? Gotta help people “get” you.
Currently loving these natural looking supima cotton tees from Forty Five.
Wool & Prince make my current favorite everyday button-up.
A slightly vintage looking cotton tee from Forty Five works well for me.
An actually soft everyday merino tee from Proof works better in travel due to the wrinkle resistance. Looks a little more formal too.
Western Rise X-Cotton Tee — a little bit thicker everyday tee, best in colder climates.
Technical and extremely lightweight “trailmaker” shirt from Seadon is my go to gym/activities tee.
Seadon Merino Long-Sleeve — high quality earth friendly merino, great fit and feel.
Wool & Prince Merino Henley – can be used to kind of dress up an outfit. The material is real nice.
Anything from Topo – especially the “Dirt Shirt.”
Topo’s Dirt Shirt, excellent fall weather shirt.
Wool & Prince Merino Button Up – odor resistant, wrinkle resistant (for reals), easy to live in everyday, churches it up a little (makes you look nice).
Western Rise Airlight Button Up — very lightweight, versatile, looks stylish and clean, slim fitted.
Ministry of Supply Button Ups — some of the lightest, svelt, most technically proficient business shirts.
Baseball Hat: Versa or Dayfarer – clean, modern, water proof, super comfy. (Video.)
Beanies: Western Rise make a good beanie, so does Topo. I also travel with a thin Smartwool Beanie.
Western Rise’s Versa Hat is crushable, stylish enough, comfy and minimal.
Western Rise Evolution is my current everyday go-to pant.
Western Rise’s Airloft Jacket is my current everyday jacket. (Video.)
Western Rise Evolution. Light, durable, packable and stylish. If you want a thicker pant go with this one.
Livsn everyday pants in either the thicker canvas or the lighter eco trek; both are great.
Myles Tour Pant. Streeeetchy. But still looks pretty nice.
Duer Stretch Denim. Great stretchy denim. Aviator is also great, but I prefer these.
Western Rise Jogger. Lounge-able, but it’s a good tech fabric for cruising around town.
Oliver’s Shorts — I have lived in the “All Over” short. They had a good board short too.
Board shorts like these are what I work out in, play in, swim in, do everything in.
We’ve got a whole page for favorite casual barefoot shoes
Western Rise’s ankle socks are great for that invisible look.
Farm to Feet Socks — good wool, well sourced. Darn Tough are good too. Injinji are excellent for barefoot shoes.
Exofficio Boxer Brief — been using these over 5 years now. Dry quick, no BS, keep my business happy.
Western Rise Airloft Jacket— my go to on the road. Insulated, temp regulating, wonderfully made.
Aviator Red Eye Merino hoodie — Very nice and thin but warm enough as a layer. Great for the plane. Another option is the Western Rise Stongcore Merino Hoodie.
Alternative Apparel Hoodie — hard to beat low key vibes.
Jammie Shorts – my everyday jammies bottom. So cozy.
Marine Layer Lounge Pant – very cozy, but this one’s got some zip pockets.
