| | | Todd Snyder and Timex's Smash-Hit Mod Watch Is Just $79 Right Now | | The olive green iteration of the Todd Snyder + Timex Mod Watch is one of the earlier designs in the ongoing collaboration between the New York City-based designer and the storied timekeeping brand. It's one of those pieces that manages to ably split the difference between mid-century aesthetics and contemporary appeal, so it should come as no surprise that its fans are legion. What does feel a little unexpected, though, is the fact that it's currently on sale for 42% off the original price.

"Since I wasn't going anywhere, the only stuff I really used with any regularity were my running shirts and shorts. Some days the only time I left the house was to run. I have a pretty good wardrobe of athletic clothes, but I kept finding myself only wanting to wear my favorite pair of shorts—and some days I'd wear them even when not working out. Those are the Surge shorts from Lululemon. They look like a very nice pair of athleisure shorts, but they function like gear for a serious runner. Most importantly, they're the most comfortable shorts I own, period."

Seems Matt LeBlanc's wardrobe, posture, and just overall thing remind Irish viewers of the middle-aged Irish Uncle, and as with all good cultural moments, it became a meme with the quickness. We don't really have that character type in the States, and we hate things we don't understand. So we've enlisted the help of Irish filmmaker John Butler– the man behind Handsome Devil (one of Esquire's 50 Best Gay Movies!) and currently a director of the upcoming Stephen Merchant Amazon Video show The Offenders– to contextualize it for us. And also, because it is Pride Month, we will slightly objectify sweet Uncle Matt. Slainte!

"I wasn't concerned about looking old—okay, maybe a little—but instead looking complacent. Like I stopped caring (even though, paradoxically, I try very hard to look like I don't care, even though I care very much). I didn't buy a closet full of new clothes, change my hair, or alter my skincare routine. I sought inspiration. I created a moodboard of famous people when they turned the big four-o. I wanted to see how they dressed and looked. I started sharing the moodboard with friends staring down 40, and then decided, what the hell, why not share it with Esquire readers. Here it is: an incomplete collection of notable men at the precise age of forty. I hope you enjoy it, whatever age you might be." Read More | | | | | | | |
