For @insidehook I went deep on the long history of the boat shoe, a style that has floated in and out of fashion since Paul Sperry invented it 91 years ago, all the way up to @sperry ’s latest collab with @abercrombie .
Big thank you @jackladow at @morjasshoes and @mylespereira for their thoughts on today’s more modern interpretations.

My latest for @fashioncanada looks at the NHL’s decision to relax its long-standing dress code and some of the early winners like Utah’s @sergach98 .
Big thanks to @mariemicheleb and @jordanleighlaine for their insights and to @nataliemichie for taking the story on.
Pick it up on newsstands or read at the link in bio.
For @gqrecommends , I wrote about my favourite pants—@havenbrand ’s Shop Pants—made from fine Japanese corduroy, with a tailored fit, pleated front, and, best of all, made in Canada. 🍁
For the @globeandmail@globestyle , a made-in-Canada story on @houseofblanks - makers of world class-fleece hoodies, tees and other everyday basics knit, dyed, pre-shrunk, cut and sewn right here in Toronto. (Last slide features their excellent finished product.) Big thank you to @andrew_sardone for the edits. Link in bio.
For @gqrecommends , I wrote about my new @uniqlo seamless puffer which has so far, through a miserable December, outperformed my old much pricier puffer. For city life, sometimes simple is best. Link in bio.
