Les meilleurs shorts en lin à adopter cet été pour affronter la chaleur

3 days ago | gqmagazine.fr | Heidi Quill |Faye Fearon |Jessie Atkinson

Le lin gagne du terrain dans l'industrie de la mode. Bien qu'il s'agisse d'une matière ancienne ayant un cachet particulier dans les pays chauds, un récent rapport a révélé que 64 % des marques l’ont utilisé pour la première fois en 2020, notamment Dior, Prada, Fendi et Louis Vuitton. On a vu une augmentation de 102 % de la présence de ce matériau dans les défilés de la saison 2024, et ça promet de continuer en 2025. Comment cette tendance se traduit-elle sur le plan vestimentaire ?

Perhaps 1997 when Tiger Woods stroked his way to his first majors win in full Nike? Or maybe when drab lycra became the norm for all sportswear in the 2010s? Whenever it was, we lost our way.

Postcards from Antarctica

2 weeks ago | classic-sailing.com | Jessie Atkinson

There is nowhere quite like Antarctica. Rather than try to describe it myself, I’m going to leave it to Gijs, the frank and eloquent skipper of Tecla. His log entries from their recent voyages read like postcards from the edge of the world. With the fading summer light, we set of for Antarctica, one more time this season. Light is of the greatest essence down south. Growlers are lurking at every unaware mariner… We are not that far yet.
The New Balance trainers to cop for an extra 25 per cent off this payday

Snoafer 1906L this, Action Bronson 990v6 that… it can be tough work to keep up with all that New Balance has to offer. But there is one term that everyone – sneakerhead or not – can understand just fine, and that word is ‘sale’. You'll find a remarkable amount of trainers as part of New Balance's spring offering, and NB is no slouch about the things it discounts either.

Someone wearing Dickies today is exponentially more likely to be juggling situationships than tilling fields or fighting in the trenches, but — like Levi's and Burberry — this is a label that began life for practical purposes.

All products are independently selected by our editors. If you buy something, we may earn an affiliate commission. Did you know that humankind invented luggage with wheels after we went to the moon? (1970 and 1969 respectively, for all you quizzers out there.) A wild thought on first consideration, right? And yet the implied engineering superiority of wheelie luggage makes a lot of sense – because, while space travel is impressive and all, a manageable suitcase is much, much more useful.

Pour la plupart d'entre nous qui cherchons une idée de cadeau pour une occasion spéciale, les produits de fitness ne nous viennent pas spontanément à l'esprit.
Questi pantaloni di lino saranno i vostri alleati perfetti per i mesi estivi

1 month ago | gqitalia.it | di Heidi Quill |Jessie Atkinson |Faye Fearon

Niente è più elegante di un paio di pantaloni di lino. Ciò che li rende così adatti ai mesi estivi è il basso numero di fili del materiale derivato dalla pianta del lino. Tessuto molto apprezzato anche in altre forme (vedi le nostre guide ai migliori pantaloncini e alle migliori camicie in lino), il lino è leggero, traspirante e, una volta indossato, diventa morbidissimo.
In praise of Duke + Dexter’s decorated loafers: the most fun you can have without taking your shoes off

1 month ago | gq-magazine.co.uk | Jessie Atkinson

In which clothes do you do your best loafing? Save your hoodie and joggers, because I'm not talking about bed rotting. Loafing is quite a different beast altogether: a case of “doing nothing or very little” in a debonair, trust funded sort of way. Not only should you be properly dressed for such an appointment with oblivion, you should also consider wearing the shoes named for this very purpose.
