Brand Corridor Clothiers is all about a few key things. First and foremost, fit. But right after how it wears, and how it looks, comes where it’s designed and made: NYC. Dan Snyder founded Corridor back in 2012, developing a menswear line that was understated but cool, and featured a tailored fit, allowing you to skip the tailor. One masterful way to make this happen was by designing a signature three-paneled backside, featured on the Corridor collared button downs. The three piece back design allows for extra movement, and a more comfortable fit, but without adding extra material.
A key function of the current goods available at Corridor is the ease with which they can all be worn together. Summer-weight dress shirts, with short or long sleeves, can be easily paired with Twill chinos, available as shorts or pants. Pick one from each category, and finish with a lightweight tie. For a truly polished look, you need a jacket – even if you only carry it around this summer and never actually wear it.

For unexpected dips in temperature, be prepared while earning some style points with the Waxed Cotton M65 jacket. Built to get better looking with age, this coat will serve you well today and for years to come. Complete with a water patina and completely hide-able hood, it may make you look forward to fall. (Not just yet though.)
