The Best Gear to Help You Look Good When You Get Back to Work

Dress for the job you want, right? Want the corner office and a fatter paycheck? Cleaning yourself up can only help. Luckily, nailing an appropriate look is a lot easier than most guys think. Keep your grooming in check and toss on some clothing that’s not plucked from your college wardrobe and you’re doing great. If you need some help getting started, try out a few of the products below.

Cole Haan 2.ZERØGRAND
Cole Haan 2.ZERØGRAND

Cole Haan and Jeff Staple teamed up to make an office-ready shoe that blends the comfort of an adidas Ultra Boost with the elegance of a dress shoe. These are the first “wingtips” you can wear to the gym after the work day ends. Pair them with dark jeans or even some dress pants and walk in comfort from meeting to meeting. That comfort comes courtesy of dynamic energy foam, which is said to rival that in some of the top-of-the-line running shoes out there. Plus they’ll stay cool even if you’re sweating bullets before a performance review.

And since it’s ideal for all hair types, you don’t have to wonder whether your unique mane is right for a bottle.

Discommon Thermoformed Leather Card Wallet
Discommon Thermoformed Leather Card Wallet

Discommon makes the kinds of products you invest in. While they run you a sizable amount of cash upfront, they pay you back tenfold when you’re still using them decades down the line. The latest is the Thermoformed Leather Card Wallet, which they made in collaboration with VENN. The stitchless wallet is made from Italian calf hide formed and laminated to either orange microsuede or custom grey tweed. That means that when you reach for the tab at that lunch meeting your coworkers and clients will get a quick flash of your attention to details.

Not every job involves sitting at a computer from 9 to 5. When your work requires you to roll up your sleeves but still look presentable, toss on The Mechanic shirt from Taylor Stitch, a durable shirt made from 7 oz. sanded canvas that’s still tailored to look damn good. The made in the USA top is designed without pleats so you can iron it and clean it with ease. Finished with powder coated aluminum buttons and a California collar, The Mechanic shirt brings some refinement to any greasy situation. And since it can be worn tucked or untucked, it looks just as good while you plug away your Mac.

Portland General Store Wilder Eau De Cologne
Portland General Store Wilder Eau De Cologne

Cologne at the office is a gamble. Go overboard with it and everyone will be whispering around the water cooler. Put on just the right amount and all you leave is a faint, attractive scent in your path, however. We really love this new offering from Portland General Store. Wilder is warm and spicy with tobacco and Scottish wool notes. That means it’s classically masculine and perfect in all settings. Again, just go easy with it and it will pay off.

The bamboo charcoal inserts pull odor, bacteria, allergens, mold, and mildew from your shoes, leaving them free of stink.

For all your jet setting and pavement pounding, Ray-Ban has released a new pair of shades to protect your eyeballs in style.
