J. Crew takes you to Italy for a tour of some of its famed factories and mills. Stick around on their youtube page and check out some of their other content for an in depth look into what makes J.Crew tick.

You already know my affinity for President John F. Kennedy. A Continuous Lean has a peek into the new book, Portrait of Camelot: A Thousand Days in the Kennedy White House, with a handful of fascinating color photos.

Go back in time with Gilt MANual’s brief history on American menswear company, Hickey Freeman.

You know I’m always trying to show you guys how to be better gentlemen. The dudes from Derrick Comedy shed a little light on what a gentleman may or may not be. Video courtesy of Put This On.

The Art of Manliness has a great idea for a weekend project – a DIY leather wallet. Besides cutting wood, working with leather is about as manly as it gets.
