The sport itself may not be popular here in the States, but rugby shirts have been poppin’ for a while now. Though the majority of the ones you see on store racks are merely rugby “style” shirts, it doesn’t make them any less cool. And because they’re traditionally made of heavier, more durable cotton than, say, a regular long sleeve polo shirt, they’re great staple pieces for your winter wardrobe. As with anything else, only a few brands know how to make a quality, stylish rugby shirt, and you will find most of them below in our round of the 10 best rugby shirts available this season. Game on…

GOOD Music’s Mr. Hudson has made a name for himself since he touched down on our shores, hitting the studio with Kanye West, Young Jeezy and Jay-Z. But that’s not why we picked the British rocker to be the subject of a fashion story in our October/November issue.
We tapped the London bloke because other than Don Draper (and Dwight Schrute, of course), no one rocks the suited up look as well as he does. It may seem a bit daunting, but you can easily pull of his refined, slimmed down suit style. Just read on below to learn how get Mr. Hudson’s look—you’ll have to master his despondently pensive facial expression on your own…

Sure bets are few and far between. There’s Kobe in the fourth quarter, Young Jeezy albums, and any movie Jonah Hill is in. On the fashion side, a Levi’s collaboration is good as gold. After the successful launch of their Robert Geller for Levi’s collection, everyone’s favorite denim brand is back at it with a collection made with the help of famed illustrator and national icon creator Shepard Fairey and his clothing brand OBEY.
Launching today, the collection focuses on a number of classic Levi’s pieces loved by Shepard and head of men’s clothing design at OBEY, Mike Ternovsky. To get a little more information on the line we went straight to the source and got an exclusive interview with Shepard and Mike with them talking about their roles in the collection, their favorite pieces and whether or not they’re going to wear any of it. If that doesn’t get you amped enough to hit up the launch in Times Square today, maybe the chance to win one of the four limited edition posters (pictured above) will. Dope clothes and dope art? Seems like a sure bet to us.
