Travis Scott Teases the Jumpman Jack Bright Cactus Sneaker Release

1 day ago | esquire.com | Joseph Furness

Travis Scott loves a side quest. You'll find the Houston-born rapper – who aptly dresses something like an early 2000s video game quester – on the runway one moment and assuming the role of bartender the next. This Easter weekend, after completing his main mission of headlining Coachella in Cali on the Saturday, Scott arrived at WrestleMania 41 in Nevada on Sunday during a match between John Cena and Cody Rhodes. The multimillionaire moves with purpose.

RELEASED 25 YEARS AGO this week, American Psycho - the provocative adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis's equally controversial novel - continues to leave its imprint. The film stars Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman, a wealthy, image-obsessed Wall Street banker in Eighties Manhattan who fancies himself a killer. It nails themes of corporate culture, greed and identity fixation, while costume designer Isis Mussenden gave Bale's Bateman an iconic, razor-sharp look loaded with meaning.

Jacquemus and Timberland Bring the Butter Yellow Trend into Menswear

1 week ago | esquire.com | Joseph Furness

Jacquemus is about dressing with aplomb for a sun-drenched life in the south of France that's high on culture and low on stress. Think Picasso in his final years in Mougins (near Cannes!), or even the early days of the brand's founder, creative director and namesake Simon Porte Jacquemus in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. With such a lifestyle, yachts are a regular mode of transport, and sails call for boat shoes.
Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Latest Atmos Clock Is a Sign of New Times

1 week ago | esquire.com | Joseph Furness

Jaeger-LeCoultre’s recently re-appointed CEO Jérôme Lambert has two focuses for his new era at the venerable Swiss label: “watchmaking creativity” and “revolutionary product”. At least, that’s what he told me earlier this week in Villa Mozart in Milan where JLC is holding its Living on Air exhibition (open until Sunday, in case you're in town) for the city's design week. The showcase ties into the latter focus.

La decolorazione dei capelli è per ragazzi, lo sbiancamento è per veri uomini. Se c’è una cosa che ti consiglieremo sempre di fare per rivoluzionare il tuo look è proprio il total white per i tuoi capelli.

Djo’s Journey to ‘The Crux’

2 weeks ago | esquire.com | Joseph Furness

If you were on an Avanti train from Manchester to London on 4 March last year, there’s a chance you were sharing a carriage with Djo, AKA Joe Keery, fresh from his second-ever football match. The Manchester derby, no less. The actor-musician hopes you didn’t spot him, though. Not because he’s a diva – on the contrary, he’s not unlike the humble, unassuming Steve Harrington, the character he plays in Stranger Things, hence the unpretentious choice of transport.

Jaeger-LeCoultre's New Reverso (Tribute Monoface Small Seconds) is Very, Very Gold

3 weeks ago | esquire.com.au | Joseph Furness

AS I SAY tomy fiancée when she loads on the Fenty Trophy Wife (a " highlighter", whatever that is): nothing beats gold. Someone at Jaeger-LeCoultre clearly agrees, if the latest Reverso (Tribute Monoface Small Seconds) being shown off this week at Watches and Wonders is anything to go by. It features a golden-hued dial and a "18k pink gold" case and bracelet, but the " pink" is subtle, almost silent - something like the 2018 MacBooks.
270 Years of Time: Vacheron Constantin's Alligator Anniversary

3 weeks ago | esquire.com | Joseph Furness

The world's oldest watch brand, Vacheron Constantin, has decided that just as a 10th anniversary equals tin and a 50th anniversary warrants gold, a celebration of 270 years means alligator leather. Which adds up, since the snappy reptiles have also been around for a hot minute (83.5 million years! Thanks, Google).
