The Find: Monocle's new menswear line for the sophisticated traveller

Monocle, the creators of the Guide to Better Living, have launched a simple, sophisticated menswear line aimed at the jet-setting gentleman. The capsule collection, called Monocle Voyage, distils the male wardrobe down to five key pieces: a casual, partially lined blazer, sharp enough for dinner with clients but designed for optimal airplane comfort ($525), a decidedly un-sloppy monogrammed crew-neck sweatshirt in Japanese cotton ($155), and an Italian-made Oxford button-down ($190). The collection is capped off with a white cotton T-shirt ($100) and a pair of lightweight cotton-twill trousers ($255). While the prices certainly aren’t cheap for basics, these clothes have an added benefit: temperature control. Monocle founder and editor Tyler Brulé says that the collection was specially designed to keep men comfortable in multiple climates: “We came up with a series of pieces that will work in Montreal in January as well as Auckland in the high summer.”

Available at The Monocle Shop, 776 College St., or at monocle.com
