Black Fleece by Brooks Brothers continues with their affinity for check-prints in their upcoming Spring/Summer 2014 offering. The collection spans an assortment of slim fitting suiting, formal wear, luxury casual wear (dare we say resort wear?), and light knitwear.

In the 1930s, Edward Prince of Wales was the master of dapper style, popularizing the check that takes his name. Gant Rugger’s neat fitting, subtly structured wool blazer brings this dapper cloth up to date. Made from the finest wool, this a perfect and dashing piece for the Fall months. Available now at Mr. Porter.

Mr Alexander Olch says “humour is hands down the most underrated thing in luxury fashion” and shows off his witty approach to the gentleman’s style with this elegant pocket round. Constructed in the USA from first-rate woven-cotton, this colourful check piece is a dapper alternative to its classic square-shaped cousin. Available now at Mr. Porter.

Adam Kimmel has created this elegant micro-check shirt that has the added benefit of a detachable collar system, so you can subtly alter your looks without a full costume change. Made in Italy, the shirt features details like pearl buttons & a pleated bib front, & is available at Browns now.
