Get Arthur’s Men’s Wearhouse Looks
Look #1: Date Night
For a date night look, Arthur paired the maroon V-neck Michael Strahan Modern sweater with the Joseph Abboud Slim Fit Jeans and topped it off with the classic, black Florsheim Midtown Cap Toe Oxfords for a look that’s stylish but not too stuffy. It’s perfect for a dinner date, a movie date or a more casual day date.
Michael Strahan Modern Fit V-Neck Sweater
This maroon V-neck sweater is perfect for fall because it’s lightweight and breathable, but still warm and cozy enough for the dropping temps. It features a subtle chevron pattern to give it a pop of texture and is available in this autumn maroon color or a traditional black hue.
Price: $40
Joseph Abboud Slim Fit Comfort Stretch Jeans
For $60, you can cop a pair of comfortable, cool and flattering jeans that go with just about everything. The five-star Joseph Abboud Slim Fit Comfort Stretch Jeans are tailored for a polished look but also feature a bit of stretch — that won’t lose its shape — so you won’t feel constricted as you go about your day.
Price: $60
Florsheim Midtown Cap Toe Oxfords
A black pair of oxfords aren’t just good for date night — they’re a great shoe to have on hand for nearly any occasion. Plus, they’re made with OrthoLite high-rebound foam inners and slip-resistant soles to provide comfort and cushion all day long. Since this pair is priced right at under $130, we suggest grabbing them in both colors.
Price: $124
Look #2: Coffee Run
A coffee run is a bit more casual, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice comfort for style. In his next look, Arthur keeps on the same sweater, but swaps out his black jeans for a more informal pair of taupe Joseph Abboud Modern Fit Chinos. While it might feel intuitive to reach for sneakers when you’re running out the door for coffee, Arthur elevates the look by wearing Cole Haan’s Hawthorne Moc Toe Penny Loafers in the rich cognac shade which complements his sweater and pants.
Joseph Abboud Modern Fit Chino
Like the Joseph Abboud Slim Fit Comfort Stretch Jeans, these chino pants feature some stretch so you don’t feel restricted when wearing them from morning to night. Happy shoppers say the soft, cotton pants “feel great” and can be “dressed up or dressed down” easily. The versatility is a must.
Price: $60
Cole Haan Hawthorne Moc Toe Penny Loafers
Cole Haan has 90 years of creating quality pieces under its belt, so they know a thing or two about making a functional and fashionable shoe. The Hawthorne Moc Toe Penny Loafers are no exception, with a 100% leather upper, cushion insoles and man-made soles that are designed to resist slipping and sliding.
Price: $125
Look #3: Business Meeting
Most jobs no longer require wearing a suit to the office, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t dress for success. For his business meeting look, Arthur wears the versatile V-neck Michael Strahan Modern sweater, the polished Joseph Abboud Slim Fit Comfort Stretch Jeans with the Florsheim Midtown Cap Toe Oxfords and tops the look off with the Michael Strahan Modern Fit 2 Button Soft Jacket for an extra dose of professionalism.
Michael Strahan Modern Fit 2 Button Soft Jacket
Blazers may seem high-maintenance but this style is truly no-fuss. The modern tailored fit is made of super soft, machine-washable cotton that doesn’t require a trip to the cleaners. It’s available in a wide array of colors and sizes to make it easy to find your style and fit.
Price: $130
