Overland Sheepskin Alpaca Sweater — Overland Sheepskin

Overland Sheepskin Co. has been the King of the Mountain Town for decades. They have spent their whole existence providing mountain residents, skiers, hunters, and explorers with some of the highest quality and stylish leather and sheepskin options on the market. While they started with great leather coats, they expanded to offer slippers, hats, and shirts and even dove into the home goods industry. If you are a man who loves anything leather, this is the place to go. Head down to Santa Fe and visit their flagship to make your home look fit for the mountain man. Their expansion continued with their newest drops embracing another animal fiber to add to their lexicon. The Overland Sheepskin Co Alpaca collection deepens the company’s offerings.

Embracing another animal fiber

Overland Sheepskin Alpaca Overshirt — Overland Sheepskin

Alpaca is one of the more popular fabrics on the market today due to its luxurious feel, functional warmth, and ability to be fashioned into countless stylish options. There are tons of companies looking to expand into the market, and this is the perfect way for Overland Sheepskin Co. to continue its reign as the go-to for guys on the mountain who need functional warmth. In their new drops, they added two Peruvian sweater options with a mock neck and a quarter-zip. They also offer an overshirt that will look amazing over the sweaters or flannel. And finally, in true Overland Sheepskin style, they offer a brilliant coat that is good for any event. Our bet is these will grow in popularity and alpaca will spread throughout the other departments of the company.

Elevate your NYE style with these expert-approved tips from Perry Ellis

Take advice from one of the best in the business to rock your NYE party

Perry Ellis man in suit

The new year is right around the corner, which means you're likely stressing about what to wear to your event. The truth is that many people go to these NYE parties without realizing there is an etiquette. Some of them are come-as-you-are, and you can get away with wearing your sweater and jeans while drinking in the New Year. Others are more elevated, and you should be leveling up to toast the departing year with a little more of The Great Gatsby and a little less of Of Mice and Men.

I know it can be a bit stressful, so The Manual reached out to Michael Miille, the creative director of Perry Ellis to get his insight on how to dress for a New Year's Eve event. Here's what advice he has for anyone wanting to level up to Perry Ellis New Year's Eve outfits.
Why is dressing for a New Year's Eve party different than any other event?

Adidas wants to get you ready for the Boston Marathon

Train in functional style with this set developed for the marathon

Adidas Boston Marathon

The Boston Marathon has been a staple in the Northeast for over a century and a quarter. Bringing people from all over the world to run the 26.2 miles along a handful of neighborhoods in the greater Boston area every third Monday in April, known as Patriots Day. While it is one of the most coveted races, it isn't about winning (Ethiopian Sisay Lemma and Kenyan Hellen Obiri, last year's winners, would argue that point); it is mostly about getting together and accomplishing something you never thought possible. This year, Adidas wants you to be prepared in the best way you can be with a new set made specifically for the marathon. The Adidas Boston Marathon Collection is now available, which is the perfect timing for you to start training for the marathon.
Made from recycled materials

Many people will be asking for donations leading up to the big race day. They will run for causes, be it cancer or hunger or any of a dozen causes and organizations they want to use the marathon as their megaphone for. Adidas is setting their goal of running for the planet by making this set out of 70% recycled material, limiting the impact this has on our Earth, and making sure that our grandchildren get to run in the race as well. People have been running in this race since 1897, and now that this set exists, maybe you can set a record or at least catch Sisay and Hellen.

Dandy Del Mar drops new popular sold out favorite

Relax in style with Dandy Del Mar's popular Cannes Robe

Dandy Del Mar Cannes Robe open

We don't know if it is just because the holiday season just ended or if we are still in the end-of-the-year transition phase where we are trying to figure out if any problem at work is a 2024 problem or a 2025 problem, but all we can think about is sitting around and lounging in our houses, watching movies or reading. Luckily for us, there are tons of great loungewear options from which to choose. Dandy Del Mar has reinvented the concept of loungewear for us. Their resort-style and 70s retro vibe have been on our mind all year long, and when we went for some new lounge gear, we were disheartened to find that their popular Cannes Robes were all sold out. But as if they read our minds, the brand dropped another. The Dandy Del Mar Cannes Robe is back with a new color and an even more perfect lounge feel.
New color for the drop

What makes the Cannes Robe so popular is the waffle knit texture. It gives it depth and style that you don't often find in a robe. Sure, you can go with the plush terrycloth robe options if you want to wear something bulky and oppressively hot. Or you can go with the luxurious silk robe if you want to feel light and movable. But why do either of those when you can get the best of both worlds? The browns are perfect for the DDM style and if you really want some resort classiness, pair it with a Cannes shorts and polo set for around the house this winter.
