Sharp, simple details and emphasis on trim, tailored fits.
These are the qualities of the new power suit.
That’s why we’re currently wearing this: the White Label collection, a new line made in Chicago by Todd Snyder, on sale just now.
Snyder is having something of a moment.
He’s a former J. Crew creative director keen on foundational basics. The man’s also got a knack for reviving old school labels (see: PF Flyers and Champion).
Same goes for the White Label collection.
Snyder collaborated with Hart Schaffner Marx, a Chicago brand and factory that’s been stitching for over 125 years.
The details: Soft, natural shoulders. Narrow lapels. Cuts that are smack-dab in the middle of conservative and modern. Oh, and modest prices.
Each piece is built to be mixed and matched for all seasons and occasions.
Our favorites:
- A soft-shouldered brown tweed sport coat made from hearty English wool
- A three-piece checked suit for understated savoir faire
- A tonal plaid sports coat for when you wanna turn heads
Plus a full range of ties and dress shirts to match.
All sewn up by the same team that personally tailors Barack Obama.
How’s that for a power suit?
