GQ Selects: May 2013

! We don't sell these things 
Comme de Garçons Zip Wallet
$95

If all men's wallets were on a Venn diagram, this one by Commes des Garcons would fall right in the middle. It's slim, but easily handles all the cash and cards guys usually stuff into a bulky billfold, and the added zipper ensures everything inside stays put. Plus, the bold hue ensures you'll never misplace your wallet again.

Gucci Distressed Leather Biker Jacket
$4,550

As we look ahead to fall, the biker jacket is definitely having a moment. What's so sharp about Gucci's take on the rebel-style classic is that it has all the luxury details you'd expect from the famed Italian house, with a totally unique spin. The distressed cool gray/blue body is sure to set any guy apart from the pack, on or off a bike.


Pantharella Ribbed Cotton-Blend Socks
$35
Not only are these socks wildly comfortable, thanks to a hefty amount of Sea Island cotton, but they're also incredibly stylish. The faded sky blue makes them ideal for pairing with all the other chalky hues we love this spring, as well as with the most basic navy suit for an elegant upgrade. 

Simon Miller Slim-Fit Dry Selvedge Jeans
$265


Black jeans are a fundamental item in every man's closet, and what makes a pair like these so great is not just the exceptional fit and high-quality Japanese selvedge denim, but also a shade of black that has some real depth to it, and will wear away to achieve a perfect patina.

Riverias Suede Slip-Ons
$100

There's no trust fund required to live in shoes favored by the European jet set. Rivieras are the perfect summer shoe, a hybrid of your favorite slip-on sneaker and an elegant slipper, and they look right with any warm-weather look, from a bathing suit headed to the beach, to getting a drink afterwards in tailored khakis and a tee.

A.P.C. Petit Standard Overdyed Jeans
$235
Jean Touitou's iconic slim-cut jean in a fresh color for spring. The best part about these five-pocket pants is that they instantly elevate any basic look you work them into, so even a simple solid sweater looks fresh with these down below.

J.Crew Cable-Knit Cotton Sweater
$110

J.Crew takes all the hallmarks of a handsome fisherman knit sweater and turns them into a spring-weight knit that's ideal for when the temperatures drop at night.

New Balance 576 Suede Sneakers
$150
New Balances are about as classic as running sneakers get, and the brand keeps forging ahead with reissues that fuse their iconic silhouettes with seriously stylish fabrications. The elegant navy suede lifts these sneakers out of sports territory into something far dressier, so that pairing them with trim suit pants won't look out of place.
