Even though temperatures have been downright sweltering lately, the search for our next great blazer never stops here at Bowties & Boatshoes. Sure it might hang in the closet for a few weeks (or longer) before it sees the light of day, but if you see a blazer that you love, pick it up. You can never have too many, and having a few great options to choose from is never a bad thing. Our next is going to be the Vintage Athletic Blazer from Brooks Brothers.

Whether you like it or not, you’re making a statement every time you tie on a bowtie. The team at BowTie Cause has taken full advantage of this situation and they’ve made our favorite accessory a platform to spread the word about causes big and small across the country. Today, our Bowtie Friday pick is actually a set of bows from the BowTie Cause collection. Their Armed Forces Foundation bows will definitely make solid additions to any bowtie collection.

In our younger years, we were known to pick up a t-shirt at just about every stop we made. We could never have too many, and each one was a story of it’s own. Now that we wear collars 90% of the time, we’re far more picky when it comes to picking up a new tee. One that we will definitely be adding to the rotation is the recently released “Stay True To Your Colors” Tee from Over Under Clothing.

We can say with absolute certainty that classic solid OCBD’s will always be a staple in our wardrobes. That being said, we are always open to innovation, and to find something that looks like an OCBD, yet utilizes modern technology to take the way it performs to a whole new level, is definitely something we are pretty excited about. On Sunday, Mizzen + Main introduced their version of an OCBD to the world, it’s called The Kingscote.

This Summer, our go to watch has been a simple Timex Weekender on a variety of different ribbon straps. Well, that is all about to change thanks to the guys at form•function•form. As soon as we laid eyes on their Button-Stud Sport setup, we knew we had to have it. Hopefully you feel the same way, because today we’re proud to announce we’re giving away this great looking combo to one lucky reader along with two additional button-stud bands.
