Ray Ban Clubmaster Sunglasses

Few sunglasses are more iconic of an era than the Ray-Ban Clubmaster. The unmistakable design was first introduced in the 1950s, and while it’s not a style unique to the brand, Ray-Ban’s take on this retro classic is arguably one of the most popular. For my money, I’d go with Tortoise frames with green lenses, as the classic pattern and color palette make for a versatile option that will complement many looks.

A Basic Baseball Cap

There isn’t much to say about a basic ball cap. Aside from keeping the sun off your head and hiding a messy morning mop, a simple cap can often be a nice addition to a casual look. Ralph Lauren’s signature pony cap keeps things simple with limited branding, and the lighter color will help keep your noggin cool. Another option, and a personal favorite, is a sports-themed cap from Ebbets Field Flannels, a company that faithfully recreates vintage baseball gear right here in the States.

Allen Edmonds Desoto Penny Loafer

Few shoemakers are as renowned and established as Allen Edmonds. Founded in 1922 with the intention of making well-priced quality dress and casual shoes with American styling, little has changed in the 80+ years that the company’s been in business. AE has quite a selection of penny loafers, with the Desotos offered as a more budget-friendly option. Do note that the price difference reflects the fact that they’re made in the Dominican Republic, unlike AE’s made-in-USA collection, but they’re not a low quality shoe by any means.
