About

What’s the difference between a suit and a tuxedo? Are skinny jeans still a thing? Where can you find the best sneaker sales? The Manual aims to answer all those questions and more with thorough explanations of sartorial concepts (like the elusive cumberbund) and curated buying guides that focus on everything from underwear to umbrellas. We don’t tell you what to wear, but give us a garment and we’ll tell you how to wear it.
