Men's Clothes Guide C — Page 2

This is the second page of the Men's Clothes Guide C. Page 1 covered the letter from cable knit cardigans through the cashmere hoodie; this page continues from cashmere overcoats to the coats that close its middle, listing nineteen more topics. Page 3 completes the letter from combat boots to cycling apparel, and the three pages' grids together list every one of the letter's fifty-six topics exactly once - and every entry opens a full guide.

If Page 1 was cloth and the field, Page 2 is softness and everyday life: cashmere's second half - its tailored summit and its smallest indulgences - followed by the casual wardrobe entire, the clothing most men wear most of their lives.

The Cashmere Collection, Second Half

The collection concludes with its grandest and its humblest members side by side: cashmere overcoats and sports coats and suits at the tailored summit; the sweaters overview and the V-neck at its office heart; and the intimate tier of cashmere pants, shirts and socks, with the scarf - the fiber's best value - holding the middle. Read together, the two hub pages make the collection's whole argument: one fiber, eighteen garments, and the right grade, ply and blend different for every one.

Beyond cashmere, the letter returns to the everyday: casual apparel lays out the system of unceremonial dress, and its members follow one by one - casual pants, casual shirts and casual shoes, then casual sportswear, the sport-derived branch that became casual's backbone and whose designer descendant opens Page 3.

Faith, Feet and the Coat System

Three singletons close the page, each a small world: Christian clothing, apparel as testimony, from graphic tees to the discreet embroidered symbol; cleats, the cross-sport traction umbrella whose baseball branch lives in the B letter; and clogs, the oldest work shoe in Europe, still on duty in kitchens, hospitals and gardens.

And then coats - the outerwear system itself, dividing the wardrobe by weather job: dress coats, insulated coats, rain coats, and the discipline of buying for the worst honest day. The cashmere coats and overcoats linked from this same page are that system's luxury tier, and the coats guide is where their whole family is mapped.

How to Use This Letter

Page 1, Page 2 and Page 3 are one directory in three volumes: start at any of them, and the grids and the banner below will walk you around the whole letter. Every topic guide follows the same promise - what it is, how to choose and size it, how to wear and care for it - and links onward to its family.

Page 3 finishes the letter with its hardest-wearing citizens: combat boots and cowboy boots, corduroy and corporate apparel, costumes, the cotton family's tailoring, cufflinks and a cummerbund, and cycling apparel to close - the C wardrobe from the battlefield to the ballroom to the bike.
