oh! I never previewed Kaptain Sunshine. Too busy salivating over it all, I guess. I've never been shy about it being one of my favorite brands in the store, but I'll try not to gush too much.

The Traveller Coat returns, of course, in a beautiful super 140s melton wool. If you handled last season's it's similar to that and is a double-melton but isn't two tone like before. We've got navy and black this time around.

Sold as separates, Kaptain's DB suits are always standouts for us and usually get the recognition they deserve. This season's is a cotton twill and is unstructured, which plays nicely with the casual detailing of the pockets and silhouette.

Getting into their hyper-luxurious territory, this corduroy is on another level. Plush, lustrous, I can go on and on. We picked up the CPO shirt jacket alongside:

Matching trousers in grey, but also a brown variation of the same trousers.

Also with a keen attention to fabric are some reverse-weave crewnecks. Somehow honoring the classic reverse weave but superseding it with better materials, you really get the sense that Kaptain worships this style the way so many do but had the know-how to do it justice.

Sueded cotton rollneck looking handsome in a rich burgundy.

And wool jersey in brown. The feel and luster of thees along with the collar shape makes them a favorite of mine to wear casually with suits.

Great choice of that KS cpo shirt in charcoal. The other green option with the brown elbow patch was too ivy for me.

I know Kenshawn said to go TTS on the Beams snowflake vest, but the measurements seem small. If I want a slightly slouchy fit, size up?
