  1. The Tailored Suit:                                                                                   Every man should own at least one.  Three classic colors of gray, black, or navy.  However,  since a navy jacket is a must have my suggestion would be to buy a Navy suit as your firs suit.  You now have two must haves in your wardrobe (2 birds with one stone).  Buying Black and Gray could be your next investments.

  2. The White Button Down:                                              Wear it with your classic suit, wear it with your khakis/converse, wear it with your shorts, wear it with pretty much anything.

  3. The Dark Denim Jeans:                                                     Enough Said....A dark denim is denim that can look formal with an edge, and a more mature type denim style.

  4. The Khaki Chino Pant:                                                               When jeans are too casual, and slacks are too formal.  So light, airy, and comfortable.  The Khaki Chino can be worn for just about any occasion, and you can mix and match these pant to suit any mood.

  7. The Watch:
    Since 1854, Timex has proven why it is a classic. Just get a watch that is simple, manly, and clean lines.

  8. The Alden Boot:                                                                                               A heritage piece that will prove timeless and quite versatile

  9. The White T:                                                                                 Comfort.   Wear it how you want.  Make it your own. Like play dough, the white t-shirt can be molded and worked to fit your own unique personal style.

  10. The Converse Tennis Shoe:                                                           The chuck Taylor works well, but for a more mature selection, try the Jack Purcell. A great alternative, totally classic, and versatile

  11. The Hermes Tie:                                                                        An investment piece that is full of color , character, quality, and will remain timeless.  Hermes has patterns to give you that personal edge that lets your voice be heard.

  12. The Print Button Down:                                                             Man cannot live on (bread) WHITE alone.  Put a bit of color and character that can be worn formally, or casually.
  13. The Denim Jacket:                                                                                That same needed navy jacket, but in a denim.  As I have a post written solely on the Levi jacket, you know how I feel about this must have.  If you haven't read it, go check it out on my previous posts.
