Adidas Terrex Agravic Trail Runners

Posted on by
Sneakers can be a tricky thing. Often, they are either too sporty to be practical for everyday wear or more shoe-like than performance, therefore limited to fashionable pursuits. There are some which can cross these lines – classic tennis shoes like Stan Smiths come to mind. All that being said, sneakers, especially purpose-built ones, have a job to do beyond simply looking good. And, as runners, the OTC crew know from good performance footwear. The Adidas Terrex line is one brand that we really like, and it’s a label that not everyone knows much about. Designed for trail running and…

One Star Leather’s Park Sloper Senior

A debate has been slowly but steadily percolating to the surface in the world of menswear opinion as to whether or not the wallet’s luck has finally run out. With digital currency inevitably moving into the mainstream, and cards otherwise replacing cash for many transactions, the question of the wallet’s relevance and even need is a valid point of discussion. While technology may make the traditional wallet’s function of carrying cash irrelevant, its ability to also hold one’s scraps of meaningful ephemera, or that parking garage ticket that needs to be validated, makes it an unusually personal object. Still, casting…

Posted on by
In partnership with British label Charles Tyrwhitt, we are thinking through some real-world issues faced by men and the clothing they wear. In 2016, the UK Office for National Statistics determined that 3.7 million workers traveled for two hours or more every weekday as part of their commute. This might involve walking, driving, cycling, taking public transport, or any combination of those modes of transportation. On top of this, many men – particularly in city environments – choose to wear a formal suit to the office to look smart; not particularly ideal attire for such a long travel time! Read…

Mary Quant dies: Visionary fashion designer who styled the Swinging ’60s and popularized the miniskirt, was 93

Posted on by
LONDON — Mary Quant, the visionary fashion designer whose colorful, sexy miniskirts epitomized London in the 1960s and influenced youth culture around the world, has died. She was 93. Quant’s family said she died “peacefully at home” in Surrey, southern England, on Thursday. Quant helped popularize the miniskirt – some credit to her by inventing it – and the innovative tights and accessories that were an integral part of the look. She also created dresses and other simple mix-and-match garments that had an element of whimsy. Some compared her impact on the fashion world with The Beatles’ impact on pop…
