Everlane Is Taking Up to 70% Off a Ton of Spring Style Essentials
 
Depending on where you live, spring has either 1) already sprung, 2) begun the process of springing, or 3) started thinking about maybe springing at some point in the future, but it's still a bit up in the air. All good options, if you ask me! For those folks in warmer climes, it means you're now able to swap all those heavy layers for somewhat lighter ones. And the people still dealing with winter's wiles? Hey, look on the bright side: You can squeeze a little more use out of your favorite outerwear, and maybe even pick up a new coat—at a steep discount—to round out your collection. Whatever you're in the market for at the moment, Everlane's latest sale has you covered, with options ranging from the weatherproof (check out the overcoat and the parka) to the easy-breezy side of the spectrum (light jackets and summer-weight jeans? hell yeah!). The only issue is a perennial one when it comes to the DTC darling: Stuff's selling out. And it's selling out fast. What, exactly, am I supposed to do about that? you might ask. I have an answer: Compound the problem! Do not be a part of the solution! Start shopping now before some other lucky customer snaps up the last fleecy trucker in your size, leaving you with only your regrets. Don't live with regrets! Buy the jacket—and the jeans, and the shirt, and the face masks, too—and enjoy spring in style. After the past year, I guarantee you've earned it. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
Gen Z and Millennials Are at War Over the Attempted Cancellation of Eminem
 
On Friday, Eminem released an animated lyric video for the 2020 single "Tone Deaf," which appears to be a response to a TikTok campaign to cancel the 48-year-old rapper. The video, in typical antagonistic Eminem fashion, features images of disgraced figures like Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein. This is the latest in a growing #canceleminem movement that has highlighted a divide between Millennial Eminem fans and younger Gen Z critics. When dropping the lyric video, he quoted the lines of his own song: "I won't stop even when my hair turns grey (I'm tone-deaf) / 'Cause they won't stop until they cancel me." This particular clash began in February, when a TikTok user, who has since been removed from the app, uploaded a short clip from the 2010 Eminem and Rihanna song, "Love the Way You Lie." The user called out the line, "If she ever tries to fucking leave again, I'm a tie her to the bed and set this house on fire." In the text written over the uploaded video, the user wrote, "Yesssss lets cancel him." Since then, that initial post has gone viral, launching an age-old debate about the artistic value of Eminem's controversial lyrics in a time of heightened sensitivity. Here's Esquire's Justin Kirkland on everything that's gone down, and where it all stands. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
25 Spring Jackets You Can Layer Now—and Wear on Their Own Later
 
Ahhhhh! [inhales theatrically] You smell that? That's spring, springing. Which means it's time for you to get right emotionally with the idea that you won't have a damn clue what the weather's doing on any given day until summer arrives. Sure, it might be freezing in the morning. But who knows? By lunchtime, it might be a balmy 50 degrees, and you'll want to go outside, and unless you want to suffer some self-induced heat stroke, that big, burly puffer you've been reaching for these last few months isn't ideal for the job. So, yeah. You need a spring jacket. This is great news, because you have an absolutely enormous amount of options to play with. Denim? Sure! Something more technical, that can pull double duty for a coffee run and an actual run, wicking sweat and moving with you through your workout? We've got those, too. We've also got lightweight parkas, chore coats, bombers, leather jackets, fleece zip-ups, car coats, and even more. So give that puffer a well-deserved rest and get yourself something you can layer now, wear on its own later, and enjoy till the temperature creeps so high that you have to put it aside and wait patiently for the cool weather to come back. It's light outerwear season, baby! Let's get it. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
Prince Harry Wore His Go-To J.Crew Suit Again to Sit Down With Oprah
 
Stars! They are not even close to just like us. That goes double—triple, a hundred damn times over—for royals. Life in the fishbowl of American stardom? It's tough. Life with the British tabloids breathing down your neck? Screw that entirely. In fact, that's kind of what Prince Harry and Meghan Markle said—and may well talk about with Oprah this weekend—by extricating themselves from the scrum and moving to the West Coast to be, if not Normal Folks, than Closer to Normal Folks than they were in Jolly Old. But even before the transplant, there was one key aspect of Prince Harry's outward-facing persona that was already delightfully normal. Like the rest of us, the guy loves a J.Crew suit. He even wore one to show off baby Archie to the world in May of 2019. (Was the decision to go with something accessible and affordable a calculated one? Probably! But so, in its own strange way, was your call to wear that same pair of sweatpants for the third day in a row.) And now, in another act of my-cousin-would-totally-do-that-too-dom, Harry is rewearing that same go-to suit for another big event. (Maybe not the exact same suit, I have no idea how big Harry's closet it, but at least the same cut, color, and make.) For his and Meghan Markle's much-anticipated tell-all interview with Oprah, Harry yet again busted out the J.Crew Ludlow suit in a pale "geyser gray," the same suit that J.Crew is selling online with a full size run currently available. You know what to do! (Buy the suit; what to do is buy the suit.) Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Best Podcasts of 2021
 
There is a podcast for everything these days. No, literally. If you hop on any major platform—Apple, Spotify, Stitcher—you can get lost in the library of podcasts covering everything from sex to true crime. Sometimes sex in true crime. Point being, it's niche as hell and you can get as deep or as superficial as you want. For 2021, we find ourselves in the position of recommending the best of what's out there. The Esquire editors came together and made a roundup of our favorites—some old, some new, some borrowed. Wait. That's weddings. The list below is partly that though: a dash of some old favorites and a touch of new outings that have drawn our attention in the first few months of 2021. A bit of something for the golf enthusiast. A listen for the film obsessed. And, of course, the soothing sounds of Laverne Cox, discussing personal matters. It's a regular Who's Who of "Oh, that's comforting to listen to." So peep our suggestions. Give a listen to a show you've never heard of before—it's not like your houseplant isn't going to be there to talk to, if you don't love how it shakes out. And keep an eye on this list as the year goes on. We'll be on the lookout for new shows that emerge. All you have to do is keep one AirPod in and relax. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
'I Think She Saw It Coming': Meghan and Harry's Oprah Interview, and the Echo of Princess Diana's Pain
 
The few times Prince Harry has spoken publicly, he has alluded chillingly to his fear of "history repeating itself." His mother, Princess Diana, died while speeding away from the lens of paparazzi cameras, which continued to take her picture while she lay dying in the back of a car. The frenzied press coverage of Harry and Meghan Markle clearly echoed the mania around his mother, but in their CBS interview with Oprah on Sunday night, the similarities extend to the way Meghan was treated by The Firm—a term that may have been new to many American viewers, by which she means the apparatus that supports the royal family as a cultural and commercial institution more than as a family in the traditional sense. Meghan and Oprah started their Sunday night interview talking about how naive she was when she began dating Prince Harry. She claimed she'd never Googled him, that she didn't know how to curtsy when she met her new boyfriend's grandmother—the Queen of England—and that she grew up in a family that didn't really pay all that much attention to the royals. She said her mom recently asked her, "Did Princess Diana ever do an interview?" It was a savvy aside which drew a distinction between her family background and that of the royals, while also drawing a comparison between her treatment and Diana's that would linger for the next two hours. Kate Storey unpacks the story everyone's talking about right now. Read More
